they found out the white phospurous they used burned up the civilians.
Who is Baldur and why does he have a gate? Is this some Dark Souls lore?

The simple answer is: Treyarch.
It says all you need to know about them that they took CoD4, copied and re-skinned it and yet somehow managed to make it worse.
They should totally do user suggested recommendations for similar games and have users vote up which ones they agree with.

In what ways? It was still good, i think the last good COD game. COD 4 might have been better but WaW had nice ideas too.

My tenure with COD ran from COD4 through MW2.
During that time, I learned that I agreed with the people who said that Treyarch was not a good developer. Did they get better when they did the Black Ops games? I don't know.
WaW is the only one of those 3 games that I did all of the achievements for twice. It's playable. It's probably not as bad as people make it out to be, but I wouldn't say there's nothing wrong with it or that it was better than MW2.

I read about your monitor issue earlier and was wondering, are you not able to simply return the monitor? Not because of the faulty pixel per se, but just general unhappiness with the product. Maybe a 10 - 15% restocking fee and then you could buy a new one from your preferred store?
I don't know about where you live, but where I live there is usually a minimum 15 day return policy on specific tech hardware and generally a 30 day policy. Not for defects, just general returns.
I'm still waiting on local chat logs.

Yet none focus on the game library...
Yea i will be bitching about this for a while lol.
Me too, too many issues to ignore and by far the most important on a day to day basis.

How is Valve going to only allow the serious tags to be added?
so games don't end up looking like this

I was going to say 5$ fee, but I dunno, not with cards being so easy to sell.
I'm sure it'll even out for the most part though we do have the issue they are way too close to the top of the page rather than further down, like reviews/recommendations are.

I dunno that sounds about right
I see this as an excellent feature.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Not to be outdone, here is a new Enhanced Steam feature I'm announcing....
Badge pages will show the average cost of completion, and if you have card drops remaining, will show the approximate worth of those cards.

Next up - sorting options that will let you sort the badge page by cheapest badge to complete or sort by approximate value of card drops. Great for badge collectors, people looking to most cheaply level up their profile, or people looking to idle their most expensive cards first.
I'm also going to be using this data to tally a "total approximate value of all card drops".

3arc is divine.
Blops 1/2 are the pinnacle of the COD series. Best maps, best gameplay.
Thanks for the link, I'll follow up on it later - too much to read through just now.
Sweet update, when you get the tap on the shoulder from Valve you gotta' promise me you'll do something about the client

Golly, what a poorly-conceived idea. I suspect jshack puts more thought and care into even the tiniest of Enhanced Steam details than Valve have with this tagging thing.
At the very least, it needs thresholds, i.e. tags should only be globally attached to titles when x number of people issue it that tag - would allow 'community tagging' to an extent, without the farce they have now.

It is still a "beta" feature. What I expect they'll do is let it rock for a little while and then wipe out most of the tags. At this stage people would have had their fun.

Will do. I'd love to get my hands on that code.
I'm actually disappointed in this whole "tag" thing, and wish that someone at Valve would have reached out to me at some point during their conception process. I've had a similar feature (for tagging DLC) for almost a year now. I feel like I could have offered some valuable insight into rolling this feature out as-is.
On another note, I just had ES tally up the approximate worth of my undropped cards: $67.89. obamanotbad.jpg

Brilliant. You are thinking of features before people even realize they need them.
Edit: This isn't far off for me:

this reminds me I need to finish the game.
Joke tags shouldn't go away and people should lighten up. The tags aren't going to be ever useful and you're crazy if you think tagging things "singleplayer"/"multiplayer"/"FPS"/etc. is gonna help with finding things when the entire catalog/store is finally tagged like that.
Frankly, the meme/joke tags means if someone hears "Nanomachines, son" and they (hopefully Valve lets you custom-text search...) look for that tag, they get Metal Gear Rising from the get-go easily.
Also Hotline Miami's devs/publisher is into it, so it can't be all that bad for publishers if someone tags their games as shit.
Though, I'll admit some tags do need moderation for obvious reasons. But if someone tags your game as "crap," "shit," whatever PG-13 tags here? Deal with it. That's what they think.

I think Steam is trying to tell me something.
I reckon there will be some sort of Valentine's Day promotion on Steam, at least for Dear Esther. Dear Esther was released on 14 Feb 2012.
If you share this new App ID through twitter, you will see
Edit: Also I found these games got updated at a similar time, could be relevant.

Just finished the Eldritch expansion, and the last bit of Dragon Age Origins DLC (Bless you Family Sharing for allowing me to not drop a bunch of money on Bioware bucks!).
Eldritch is good stuff. The back half of the expansion was an interesting change of pace.
Dragon Age Origins is still super great. Leliana's Song and Witch Hunt were good bits of story. The only dangerous thing is that now I'm looking at the Dragon Age 2 DLC stuff, and wondering if I missed anything there (other than the character DLC. I have no plans to replay 2). Anyone play any of that?
Oh also Descent. That was a big game of my childhood, and I was pleased to find my muscle memory was still there. I had to tweak the controls, but other than that I'm glad to be playing it again. With that, Commander Keen, and Oddworld Abe's Oddysee all on Steam, the only hold out from my PC gaming childhood is Jazz Jackrabbit. One day...
