Wait, Drox Operative is on sale?


Drox Operative has been available on Steam for over a year and a half!? Where the hell have I been?

edit: Oh, apparently that's the original release date. I'm so confused by Steam release dates, they make no god damned sense. It's a new release, I'm less confused now.

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.
Does anyone have a coupon on Steam they're not using? I don't care what it is for, need to test something with Enhanced Steam involving coupons but I currently don't have any.

I didn't get any in the latest Steam glitch.

EDIT: Nevermind - just logged in and got a bajillion.

Giving a little back to the generous folk of GAF. Both great games. Hope I did this right.

I'm doing a Ted Danson here. No-one took these, so I think anyone can take them now.

I also got a 25% off Broken Age coupon. It says Discount for Double Fine Loyalty so I'm guessing they sent them out to everyone who owns a Double Fine game? All I own is Brutal Legend but whatever. If anyone wants it (although it sounds like a bunch of people got it) let me know.

Pretty sure you get a coupon for every Double Fine game you own.

Good to see you back Grief :)

I'll also have to go against the crowd and say I enjoyed Rise Of The Triad quite a bit. The lack of budget shows but it's overall very much like the original and it's what I would call a remake more than a reimagining. It's pretty faithful in many ways and being a huge ROTT fan I enjoyed it because of that. It did ship in a pretty dodgy state but patches for optimisation and to add quick saving/loading have helped it no end. It was the teams first step into making a full game without going early access or kickstarter and I admit I can't help but admire them for that. I'm expecting great things from them in the future :)

And if you're reading this Dave, get that Duke Nukem Reloaded released pronto! I DEMAAAANDS IT!

Yeah, so if you own Psychonauts, it counts.

I got 2 Double Fine coupons too, but I only just now remembered that I own Psychonauts and Brutal Legend. It's cool of them and all, but the coupons won't stack, and I have no interest in point-and-click games anyway.

I did get a 75% off Shadow Warrior coupon, though, so if Strider turns out crap, I guess that's getting bought instead.

Due to the odd nature of how the Moon Bundle gave out the keys, I'm mostly certain these will work right. Mostly.

I think the first episode starts strong but the game gets progressively more rough as it goes on. By the end it's more frustrating than fun.

It seems like they're only giving out Broken Age coupons though, so what's the point of giving people multiple coupons if they can only use one?


So you can give them to friends who have never bought a Double Fine game, giving them reason to buy one.

So I bought Final Fantasy XIV on Steam, couldn't help myself.

it's been long since a humble bundle featured so many games I didn't have

it's gonna pay itself in cards

it probably won't since the card values of these games will probably tank lol

Half of the games have cards going for less than 10 cents already.
 
I just went back and checked after seeing stuff arrive, glancing at coupons and dismissing it as some promotion of some sort. Seems I got Half-Life 2 and Half-Life 2: Episode One as well as the coupons.

I'll give the games away in here tomorrow.

Some people are claiming that it was an error and Valve will remove the games ;( I guess we'll find out soon enough. No big deal unless you start trading the games I guess.

Let's be honest, having that sexy FF14 image in your games list is worth the $15 by itself.

True, and as a bonus I have a retail key that can be registered with Square for a new account + 30 days of game time. Might be able to sell it.
