None of them will fill the void of wheelman

Not the DLC, though. Glad I bought the Going East DLC a while back.
When I sell my Pat & Mat spares, 80 keys will go towards finding a copy of Wheelman. Surely someone somewhere has a spare and is just waiting for somebody like me to pay a ridiculous amount for it.

Been playing Hero of the Kingdom, surprisingly fun. Got it in a random bundle.
Does anyone else think that the original Bioshock was maybe a bit too long? I'm replaying it (on the PS3, but whatever) and it feels like it's dragging on way too much. That might have something to do with me playing on Hard and doing a no vita chambers run, but still. I think it would be better if the game ended like halfway through Hephaestus.

Is there no way to buy multiple copies of something in the same transaction (without there being an in-store bundle pack of course)?
Nope.

Haha, I love the timing of some posts!
Yes, I agree with you. I've been playing (PS3) Bioshock 1 on Survivor mode and the game definitely drags way too long. Once you gather all the ingredients for the Lazarus Vector the game loses all of its momentum. The whole Sander Cohen arc feels completely unnecessary and it only hinders your progress.
I feel the game is 2-3 hours too long. They could have shortened some areas and the benefits would be substantial.
I totally agree. I feel like everything after the big twist was an interminable chore. It kind of highlighted how the entire game up until that point had been "go here, do this," and then /after/ the twist, it's still "go here, do this/grab this," and it became a huge chore.

We should have an "Ask JaseC" thread where you just answer questions about Steam
jshackles could be your sidekick.

I've been playing point and click/hidden object games lately. I'm currently playing through Infected: The Twin Vaccine. It's surprisingly okay.

I picked it up in a bundle a while ago, definitely want to try it as the setting looked pretty neat.

We could go on capers together while we travel the digital world in search of copies of Wheelman and Top Gun.

I actually interviewed at Midway Newcastle while they were working on Wheelman, and was offered a job. I should find a rip in space-time to the dimension where I accepted the job, grab a Steam key, and bring it back for you.
Where In The World Is Gaben Sandiego?
Knowing my luck Steam would tell me that it's already been used.
I'd buy that game.
You playing a "find the rare Steam games" game would be like a bus driver playing Bus Simulator 2013. I'm just imagining you pointing out to everyone how unrealistic it is and how it fails to capture the real collecting experience.

Especially with that huge arrow pointing to your next objective.
I mean, I really enjoy the atmosphere and the story of Bioshock but the linearity does break part of its charm.

I just hope it wouldn't be $35.

I haven't really run into anything that needed patch so far -- only a weird thing where physics went a bit wonky during the first fight with the martial arts master enemy type.
Yeah, now that I think about it, that was exactly the spot.
The post-release RU sub is region-locked at the runtime level, so unless you want to run a VPN every time you go to load the game up I'd just sell it to an Eastern European user and make most of your money back.

I've been waiting for a sale on this ever since it came to Steam.

I think with most of the games censored Germans developed a different taste in gaming:
Non-Gaming
Oh well. The thing was basically free, so I'm that upset. Plus, I got a bunch of other games too.
The site Dota2WH is closing up shop, and I had a shit ton of points on it (I got like $350 worth of points for a $2 item several months back), so I got a dozen games from them that I never really felt like paying for. Lost Planet 1, two copies of Lost Planet 2 (Heard its only good in co-op), Dead Rising 2 Off the Record, Bionic Commando, Europa 4, Sonic Adventure 2, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, DmC, Antichamber, Risk of Rain, Long Live The Queen, and the RU Rayman Legends.
Any suggested place to sell it? Think I could get someone on gaf to take it for $5?
d-pads bruh.

Why are you playing a 2D game with analog?
jshackles
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.
It's not very likely. The only way that the US government could make this happen would be if the US imposed a trade embargo on Russia, which would mean that Valve would no longer be able to do business there. Meaning - Russians wouldn't be able to purchase games on Steam.
While this wouldn't necessarily mean that your account would be disabled, it would be increasingly hard for Valve to maintain server infrastructure to support RU users if such an embargo existed. Because of this, they may disable accounts or they may not.
Again, this is like "worst case scenario" and not very likely.
EDIT: Come to think of it, if there were a trade embargo they would have to restrict the community marketplace as well.

That's how I play all my 2D games. It's fine.
edit: NOW, my 360 analog stick with that top left analog drift can go to hell. Playing Guacamelee is hard because he's always trying to uppercut.
man I really have no idea, it just felt better and I thought it worked well, my dualshock is just old! I'll try the dpad
yea that's my problem, dude keeps doing stuff I don't want him to do at the worst possible time

Obviously, you're doing things wrong and should feel horrible about it.
Then again, having first played Guacamelee on Vita's dpad I couldn't even think of doing some of the stuff on 360's dpad. Let's just say that there are controller options around...
The 360's D-pad is the stuff of nightmares.
woo and indeed hoo

I was going to post:
but then when I looked at the store page, Enhanced Steam told me that 90 of my 99 friends already owned it and the nine remaining didn't have it on their wishlist.
However, if anyone has still not picked up FTL and think that it might float their boat then I could not recommend it more heartily

I never thought to try Guacamelee with an arcade stick.
Damn...Guess I'll have to give that a go sometime.

I'm guessing the Digital Tribes Pack for $1.99 is a no-brainer, right?
Seems likely. The Winter Sale a little under 10 months away.
