I thought The Cave was coming out today on PC? Now it says

Available: January 24th, 2013
This game will unlock in approximately 1 day and 2 hours

Glad I haven't gotten impatient and used my GMG code then. Been waiting on the XBLA version but I've been looking forward to it long enough that I didn't know if I could wait til in the morning...but if my Steam version won't work yet either, hey, might as well give it up for the night.

You can go ahead and use it. The code works and will put The Cave in your library, you just can't install it yet.

Yeah, sorry, I should have stated it better. I know I can use it now. I was talking about being impatient waiting for the 360 version and wanting to use the Steam code to play it right now (which it appears we can't) as opposed to waiting til the morning for the Xbox Live update.

So Amazon matching Steam means I can buy Sims 3 expansion packs without having to re-buy the game itself on Steam.

Which expansions are the best? I own nothing except the main game so far.

I haven't played them myself, but my little brother is an addict and he has Supernatural which he loves and I am buying it late night and maybe generations from Amazon.

edit:hope its okay to ask in here, is Origin down?

Yeah, I noticed that myself last night. The game was supposed to release today; thanks for nothing, Sega.

Sega, it's all Sega.

I'm having Renegade Ops flashbacks.

Which one of you did that 1080 duck spin right before I chopped off your head on the field map, lol.

So I did indeed see that crazy ducking spin. LOL It looked hilarious, but it was so fast, I wasn't sure exactly what I saw.

Don't worry, there's really no such thing as "lmb spam." A person doing that can be easily countered.

Really, the answer to anyone complaining is "get better."

FFA lends itself to chaos and it's just how it is. I'm guilty of it. Do I care about dying? Not really because I'll spawn right away, so I just charge in and swing wildly and hope cool stuff happens.

I don't see why you guys are complaining about delays, seeing as you guys mainly get games when they're on sale.

I still purchase the games I'm anticipating before/on/around release. When I say, "Will wait for a sale", it's because I'm not particularly interested in the game and the chief reason I want it is to increase my library.

I hope they can get Divekick straight on Steam, or maybe start the Greenlight campaign right now. I need that and Skullgirls.

A bunch of us already picked it up.

I got The Cave too, GMG sent me my code. The game itself won't be playable til the 24th/25th from what Steam told me.
Not in much of a hurry for it primarely because:
1- I'll play it on PS3 first
2- Trophy hunting on my PS3
3- Still looking for a good laptop ;.;

You do realize that The Cave is like 20 bronze trophies, not a single silver, gold or platinum.... right?

Anyways, have fun doing like 3 playthroughs of the game on each platform, minimum if you want all trophies/achievements.

I remember the Renegade Ops debacle. I bitched about it a lot but then when the game finally came out, I played like one level and forgot about it.

It seems cool though, someday I'll pull it out of backlog hell.

Yup and I don't care about that~

Eh not really an issue TBH, if I like a game enough I'll replay it even if its not to get Trophies/Cheevos~

I think I played 2-3 levels. The delay really messed things up for me.
 
Does anyone know the current situation with the Gamersgate Bethesda Bundle? Can I still get a refund or am I stuck waiting until they deliver the rest of the keys?

3 hours til this give-away ends gang


I'll get the JSR give-away ready once I finish watching 2 AKB Idols play Halo Reach.

Huh. Then again, if you pick a group of sixty four people from Japan, I'd say odds are good that at least two play videogames of some form.

Thanks for the giveaway, by the way. (Also, I really should download my PS+ version of Jet Set Radio to my Vita).

Would someone mind inviting me to the GAF Steam gifts group? I'm part of the normal group but wasn't aware of there was a Steam gifts splinter faction. Oh, and my Steam profile is here: steamcommunity.com/id/Mikerrrrr

It's fun in co op. Played through it and had fun for a couple hours.

@_@ Gonna have to step out for an errand and won't be back for another 30 mins or so, I'll get the JSR Give-away ready by the time Steam's daily deal goes live.
...and the AKB Idols were literally excited to play Halo Reach, but got GGPOed by Ragna and Hazama from BlazBlue.

Which reminds me...Halo isn't available for PC/Steam right?
