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.
No but I saw the "Left 4 Dead team" which were too numerous to just be folks working on L4D2.
Someone from Valve (who was a huge fan and user of Enhanced Steam) contacted me about getting a job there.
Unfortunately, it didn't work out at this time, but when I told him I was going to be in the Seattle area this weekend I was invited to tour the facility and talk about Enhanced Steam.
So, can you confirm Steam client is being worked on by a single guy? Certainly feels this way.

Morning my good GAFfers, been a bit away lately so I'll just say that I'm crossing my fingers for you Shackles. 
Aside of that, I tried Super Sanctum TD and I'm really liking it. Need more time to play that and Typing of the Dead too. Oh and I need to finish Dust too and Alpha Protocol and... Ugh. I need more time (and coffee).
I miss you all, only had a little bit of time to check GAF yesterday and it broke my heart to see that Thread where the Drive Club director felt the need to speak up about his decisions and about his son. So sad.

Don't you worry man! You're getting close, one step at a time. Just keep up the amazing job and things will fall down in place eventually.

I do feel bad about it, feels like I'm part of the problem sometimes because I lurk and read those "insider" info and dramas a lot.
Can't bring myself to delete the game, it's been there since I bought Infinite. I don't know, I might replay it again (and Burial just after that) in the near future. Sigh, I'll miss it.
Man. I want to play or buy something (cheap) but I'm not sure what. I beat the Batman trilogy. Is Lego Batman 2 any good if you despise collectathons?
I beat FF7 years and years ago. I liked it a lot but I hate grinding/collectathons now.
I want something fun but I'm not sure what.
Some of my recent faves are:
Batman
DmC
Metal Gear Rising
Castlevania LoS 1
Resident Evil 4
Resident Evil 6
Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed
Bionic Commando Rearmed
Limbo
I have a few games just sitting in my library..
Bioshock 2 & Infinite, Dishonored Brigmore Witches DLC, but no desire to play them though
Does anyone wanna run through Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light with me?
Or maybe Lost Planet 2 or Dead Rising 2?

Have you tried sleeping dogs? Might like it since you seem to like beat'em'up, it's a pretty simple and easy brawler with a mix of gta4 but it's kind of relaxing and fun if you like the setting.
Amazing game but I beat the main story. How are Nightmare in North Point and the Bruce Lee DLC? Worth reinstalling for?

Hell if I made a game I was proud of i'd do it as well.
I'm not sure, I never bought them because I heard they're short, but stump made a post on the DLCs:

Give Strider a shot if you own that, graphically it reminds me a lot of Bionic Commando Rearmed(I believe Double Helix says that BC:R was a big inspiration to them in how to recreate an old title for a modern audience)
Considering all those recent games you like are games I really liked as well, why not try out Dust: An Elysian Tail? The art style can turn some people off, but the gameplay is very fun and definitely worth a check.
Been so long (1.5 years) I'm not sure if I want to. I remember loving it but I don't know if I want to pull the trigger.
Strider is #1 on my wish list. I'm hesitating because it seems short for a $15 title that I know will have a sale to $10 in the next few months. I'll check out Dust in a moment.

Thanks for Blindside.
That one was great though. They created dlc bundles that were not on the store before and put them at a quite nice discount. I wish more publishers did that.
Thank you!

Seeing that Squeenix weekend sale makes me wish that someday they'll make an HD remake of Einhänder, and release it on PC/PS4/XBO

Thanks! One thing they told me is that things at Valve are changing all the time. So I'll keep doing what I do and I think everything will work out fine in the end.
Good luck!ModBot said:Instructions for participants:

I will! A very belated thanks, crazyrabbits. I've been been without internet for several hours, so this was a very pleasant surprise - thank you very much.
Thanks for the insight, jshack. I was madly F5-ing the thread while awaiting your posts while you were (in rather surreal fashion) at Valve HQ (!), and I'm so very glad to hear that the visit was an insightful and positive one. I sense that only good things could come from this, so fingers crossed for you as always.
Morning my good GAFfers, been a bit away lately so I'll just say that I'm crossing my fingers for you Shackles.
Yes, as always, what our dear resident Monk said so well earlier.
Damn.
I know there are no good fractures, but how badly hurt are you, 3cho? Hope you're doing alright, mate.
Just goes to show, bad things happen when we're away from the relative safety of our PCs!

Sweet jesus this Bioshock DLC is pretty. I feel like it was even kicked up a notch from the first episode.

I have a pretty sweet GameFAQs app on my phone

that said, I cant remember the last time I used a guide. If I can't figure out the achievement for myself then bleh.
glad to hear there's a Dark Mode... it should be a standard for all apps already :/
and 100pp is awesome
Doesn't seem to be on sale anywhere atm from what I've found.

Indeed it is, there's no place like it.
I liken it to a sort of hub with information about so many different things - new games, deals, bundles, or just general game discussion. It's a one-stop posting experience.

I just got back from hospital so I'm still under the effects of the painkillers, it's not too bad.
The fracture goes right across my tibia bone just under the knee, there was no displacement so everything is still where it's meant to be. With any luck it will heal naturally with a brace but I might need surgery depending on how the scans next week go.
On the plus side I found out hospital food is amazing! Might have to go there more often
yeah, thanks for lookin out. it's all good - lord knows i've got other games in the backlog

Does L4D2 even receive any significant and frequent updates?
Haha, same. I didn't go to sleep until jshack posted.

You are implying that there are other threads on GAF, but I only know of other Steam threads.

Gee, it's pretty unusual to suffer a fracture that high in the leg, isn't it? Pretty bloody unlucky, that, I reckon. I see much gaming in your near future while you take it easy and recuperate (silver lining and all that).

I hear you - I had a 4-5 week hospital stay awhile back after my appendix exploded, and as much as I largely didn't feel like eating for much of that time, I genuinely enjoyed hospital food. It cops a bum rap, I think - or maybe it's very hospital-specific, and we're just the lucky ones.
Nope, only some small fixes and community maps and stuff. I have no idea why I still have to have a beta game in my library, the game is dead dev wise.. and with all the hints to 3.. seriously.. remove it..

It's there to pad our game counts.
