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.
For usGAF: Metro Last Light is $9.99 from Amazon (boxed copy). Key activates on Steam. Lowest price for the game so far, not counting the price glitch at Best Buy.
That's putting it lightly.
They're making a Rambo game?
Took long enough.
Indeed fellow GAFfer. Out in two days:

I believe they have the original voices in the game.
im seeing now that i only own millennium 1 and 4. hopefully they just release it as one game and give a key to the owners of any of the chapters. by the way, 4 is in the current indie royale (debut 10)
Freedom = $1.05

So apparently my issue with the Swapper only appearing on the right side of my screen is a Windows 8.1 thing. Seems that if youre having the same problem you'll need to select "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" under compatability options for the game. Hope that helps all 3 of us with windows 8.1 and a copy of the Swapper.

i just quickly judge from website "about us" and "TOS", no dev involvement, just mentioned "Game Service s.r.l" everywhere.

Is that the kickstarter game that's been 90% off for weeks?

Yes.
The original voices? Isn't this that on-rails shooter? It didn't look like anybody involved in making that game had ever seen Sylvester Stallone when I saw a video of it.

Same problem here too. Also, game play time stopped calculating for me. I suspect that's why cards aren't dropping.
GamersGate has it listed at $40/£30.
I don't see that happening, unfortunately: there are fives episodes all up and each are $10. With any luck, though, there'll be a loyalty discount for those who own one or more episodes, similar to Cognition before Phoenix canned it.

Played Guacamelee for 2 hours and got nothing earlier.
I'm having the same issue, but with a different game.
edit: also Steam is saying "0.0 hours played, currently in game"

Yeah, looks like Steam is pretty screwed up at the moment, most people here and on Reddit reporting either no card drops or very few. Speculation is that it's more fallout from yesterday's "Free games" glitch.
I idled a game for 3 hours earlier today and only got a single card.

Yes, but you can leave it in if you want. I have done that sometimes.

Takedown Red Sabre --MB-AF71A7F7A6D82C8F- Taken by Scipius
.
IX through XII are all considered very good, I would love to see all of them on the platform.
Would have no problems with the Kingdom Hearts series either, most of those games I just listed are currently getting the HD treatment over at Square as well.
Free games?
JaseC already gave the general information for EA owned properties, but keep in mind that EA also publishes third party games and may do contract titles in the future. So just because it is published by EA doesn't mean it isn't also a Steam title.
A few:
- Building the Content that Drives the CS:GO Economy (Bronwen Grimes)
- Physics for Game Programmers: QuickHull (Dirk Gregorius)
- Physics for Game Programmers: Debugging Physics (Sergiy Migdalskiy)
Nice! Any of these games from the bundle any good?
stuff

After the regularly scheduled maintenance yesterday, people were logging back in to Steam to find copies of Terraria, Half Life 2, Portal 1 and 2 mysteriously show up in their Steam inventories.
Valve has apparently been working hard to remove these free games from people's inventories and accounts.
Yea I played Swapper for couple hours now and not a single drop.
Edit: Steam got an update so probably fixes whatever issues people are having
I just emailed Bundlestars about that. Hope to get a reply soon.
I just don't like (very many) JRPGs. The only FF I actually fully enjoyed was FFVII.
I actively disliked FFVIII and FFX.
Haven't played FFXIII, but really want to for some reason. Masochism?
FXII was kinda fun because it felt like Star Wars: The JRPG, at least for the dozen or so hours I managed to play it. I did want to kill the main character though. Brutally.
"Don't listen to Ondore's lies!"
Also haven't tried the MMOs, but as it is usually the story and characters that turn me off, I'd probably like them way better.
They should have just let people keep the Valve ones. They have been basically giving them away for free for years now.
Thanks!
