Ya. Not enough current sales
True, but I was asking because I was playing Saints Row 4 with a friend, and we both got "disconnected" and can't play together anymore. Anytime we try to invite, it'll say "need to be connected online" and then we get signed out of Steam.
doesn't look like anyone is having a problem though so i guess it's just saints row being stupid
also, I have enhanced steam but I'm not seeing an approximate value for my cards.
steam just hates me right nowGood man.
Was this a pricing error or is it no longer 5?
Weird question but..
Is something going on with betas with Steam?
For a second, my copy of Hotline Miami turned into Hotline Miami[beta].. It's since changed back, but now I'm not participating in any betas for any games (even though I'm signed up for some - Chivalry, HL 2, etc)
Has that Beta Code thing always been on the beta tab?

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.

This was added in the newest version 5.9.
If you're using the Firefox plugin, it hasn't been approved by Mozilla yet. You can, however, download it manually here.
I'm half way in it and its just as good as City, I think the "its not made by Rockstady" bias is what have people rating it much lower

Sale's still going, man. I don't know what to tell you.
What part of Europe are you in?

Welcome to the family.
Scandinavia, and here it's listed at 20. Oh well, doesn't bother me much, I'll just wait for it to be in another sale someday.
That game's cards are certainly strange - some go for up to $1.20, while others sell for $0.20.
As far as I know, the drop rate of individual cards is the same as any other card. But the game does have 15 different cards, so...
Check out Enhanced Steam then browse to the badge progress page in your browser.
Seriously. How has Valve NOT gotten in touch with you at all?

The dream is real, just saw those Ace Combat: Assault Horizon achievements! Real excited to actually play this game.

I've had quite a bit of contact with people from Valve. Unfortunately, none of it has been in reference to their desire to hire me.

Weirdly enough, I just had a quick play and thoroughly enjoyed the exploration aspects of the game. Very nice artstyle round some of the environments.
To be honest, I just love the fact I can run round as a chicken!

Wow, 30 gigs for multiplayer? Didn't think it would have 1080p cutscenes.

Awesome. I'll check into it and see what is going on in the Seattle chapter. Thanks for the idea!
It's been a few months since I farmed "all" of my cards, but I've been idling pretty steady for the last 4 days and...
All these bundles - and a lot of these games have cards! At this point, I can't even idle the games as fast as I get them.
my remaining card drops are worth almost $200 apparently according to Enhanced Steam

Yes, its notorious for being poorly optimized. Try turning down the DOF effect.

Just set it to run last gen dogs. Your computer probably can't handle the new ones like the PS4.
It runs like shit on 6 different platforms.

Just don't press Esc.
lol. I was checking out Metacritic and it seems that it wasn't very well received mostly because of the game's "technical issues" (I guess that's one of them haha).
Still worth to try it out, I guess, (and hopefully they've since fixed some of the issues heh)

What would you rate it on a scale from Sonic 3 to Sonic 2006?

Sonic Rush?
I liked the 2D levels in generations. Couldn't finish the game because of the shit boss battles.

It's a pretty solid sonic game.
I'm not a fan of the Sonic Adventure gameplay, but I think it does that well enough if you're familiar with those games (I am not).
As far as the 2D "classic" Sonic levels? They were good.
The worst part of that game was the final boss. Poor design is an understatement.

I feel like writing this up, so read it or don't, but I'm going to put this here.
When I was a kid, I remember playing Strider in the arcades. I loved it so much, even if I never really made it far. It was one of those games I dreamed of having at home (another one of these was Altered Beast). I remember finding out there was an NES game called Strider and at first I thought it would be just like the arcade game, with NES graphics. It was not. It was some sort of metroidvania style game staring the same ninja. At first I was angry and disappointed. As a young boy, y'know how much you can hype something up and get excited for it and then it's nothing like you imagined. However, I stuck with the game and it turned out to be a fantastic game. (I remember seeing it got put out on the Genesis as a true arcade port, but I already had a SNES at that point and when I finally did get a Genesis, I noted the game was like $80 cause it had extra RAM in it or something, so I never ended up buying it.)
Fast forward 25 years or so.
I hear there's a new Strider revealed. I spit out my drink and start jumping for joy. Then I see that a developer with a spotty track record has been hired by Capcom to revive the Strider franchise. Doubt sets in. Watching gameplay demonstrations reinforced this doubt to the point where I was going to take a wait and see approach... but then the hype got to me. I saw I could get it for under $10 on GMG and I ponied up the cash. I rushed home after work to boot the game and try it -- I had left my PC on while I was out of the house solely so I could use the remote install feature once the game went live and it would be waiting for me when I got home.
I fired it up and I wasn't really feeling it. I remember feeling this way before, it usually doesn't end well. Final Fantasy X comes to mind. I forced myself to play and play and play saying "it'll open up and get good anytime now." And it never did. At this point, I think I'm pretty close to the end of Strider, based off Uraizen's completion time and the remaining achievements tied to boss encounters. I don't think it's going to get better at this point.
I'll write up my full thoughts on it when I'm done with my first playthrough.

Just saw the new Greenlight titles. How come such shit like Toy Defense can be greenlit? Its one of the worst TDs I have played on my iPad, since most of the missions are hardly beatable without any iAP-Purchase. I wonder if people voted for that because it shows "F2P".
Anyone who played this Game should know its a mobile-game and full of iAPs.

not saying this particular title did it(because I don't know let alone care), but some people on greenlight "bribe" people to vote for them and promise to give them a free key if/when it gets greenlit

That bad? What are the things that you dislike about the game?
You know that many people are also fans of FFX right? Their taste may not coincide with yours so it's good to know what aspects of the game you feel that are inadequate so we can compare it to our criteria. Too linear or something?
I got excited because I thought that was Paper Sorcerer, but Paper Dungeons looks fun too.

So, uh, Indie Gala Interstellar is still claiming one more game will be added at some point. With less than 24 hours remaining, what are the chances of this happening? This is my first indiegala purchase, so I'm just wondering if there's a precedent for this sort of thing.

Will Modbot take 2 keys on 1 line? I'm assuming it will, but just wanted to double check with the community
Like:
