I'd say the whole of Pinball Arcade is not worth it ATM.
Still bitter the devs didn't discount the packs even 20% on Winter Seal. :\

Just another point to add to the "Why Tomb Raider 2013 is fucking awful" list.

Yeah, those tables are expensive, I have it with a few tables on my Vita ( was free on PSN Plus ) and love the game, but the table prices....
I'm waiting for the Pinball Arcade Humble bundle.
I'd find it hard to outright recommend it, purely because I have no idea how much of it was nostalgia, but there's just so much freedom. You can create the best pizzas in the world, but it's more fun to sneak into a competing restaurant and bomb/bazooka/unleash rats into them. This review sums it up well:

Just read that Fast Food Tycoon was originally called Pizza Syndicate and is by the same developers. I may have to try this out.
EDIT: Speaking of old, brilliant sim games, I've just found out MAD TV is available in browser form.

i was all set up for a night of MGR.....and then sprained my thumb in basketball. Believe it or not...that hasn't made the game easier.
Hard is kicking my ass. Got the part with the Gecko and he is just bull rushing the shit out of me

Yeah, I'll stick to CSD.
Mmm... It's cheap, but I doubt I'd play it on PC if it's exactly the same (it's a good game for a -not so quick- toilet session). Plus I love the 3D effect, so to me it would be inferior.
Hi Derrick
I thought a man of your means would have snagged one of those gold tier amd codes.
I thought Prey had, not so sure now, because I have it and I see no achievements, somehow I was sure it had.
How would you react to Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie (and DK64) Steam releases?
Well, that's how JaseC reacts to every +1 to Steam Score.
I meant Rare collect-a-thons specifically.
Prey never had achievements. The version of Prey 2 that was being worked on did have Steam achievements.
I have the achievements for Deadpool and the original version of Zombie Driver, and those are both gone from the store.
This game looks like my cup of tea.
Hawkie was so kind to provide me a code I paid for.

You don't need to be Derrick to see that Tomb Raider was shit.
But it helps, because it's the only way to arrive at that conclusion.
Was going to post the nuuvem Deep Silver deals, but of course they're all region locked up the wazoo. Hey Deep Silver, you're never going to sell a copy of Ride to Hell Retribution like this. =p

Yeah, he's awesome, he pm'ed me and he's hooking me with a key too.
Now that I think about it, Hawkie's tag should be : Prey's pimp.

I'm tempted to pick up Riddick from GameStop PC... I read Tages can be completely uninstalled with the new drivers from their site. Is it worth the $20?
B... But the GOG version is 15$ and DRM-free.
I'm a sucker for DDEs so I'll be pre-purchasing the Master Thief Edition.
Funny you should say that:

I know, I know... I'm a pathetic Steam only guy for the most part. I'm holding out on some Origin and GOG games just to have them on Steam. It's sad but that's where I'm at right now.
Those that have been playing it have been really enjoying it even at this early stage, lots of work to be done still and estimates are around a year of development left. Going to be stellar come full release at the end of the year.
If you played Titan Quest then it's a certainty, I think it'll be a great addition to the genre.
Maybe after both Wii2 and Wii3 flop Nintendo will come to their senses and release their back catalog on Steam.

Which are the boxed versions of Prey and Outrun 2006 I should be keeping an eye out for that have Steam codes?

Banjo-Kazooie is one of my absolute favorite franchises of all-time. It's literally only surpassed by Mario, Zelda and Half-Life. I replayed those games over 10 times each to 100% when I was a kid. I did it again in the XBLA ports along with Nuts & Bolts. I even got the GBA games and beat those.
I also 100% Diddy Kong Racing.
I adore the GOOD collectathons. I really miss the N64 era sometimes...

I have livethread going so seeing this as the first new post right after tabbing over from the Kikaider anime opening theme was kiiiinda weird.
...Uh, to try and stay on topic:
I didn't even enjoy the 3DS version much (something about the movement was unpleasant, unappealing manila folder visuals) but I like achievements and it's cheap so I've had to actively dissuade myself from buying it.
I dunno what it is with me and average/sub-average platformers. After Superfrog HD ended up in the Team17 bundle I looked at the video, said "man, that looks kinda turdy" and immediately dropped $1 on it. Something is wrong with me :/

Nintendo stupidly

You must be looking forward to A Hat In Time then
I adored the Banjo games as well.I know, I know... I'm a pathetic Steam only guy for the most part. I'm holding out on some Origin and GOG games just to have them on Steam. It's sad but that's where I'm at right now.
So it is.
I'd still buy the GOG version, but that's me

Absolutely. I've been following it since its inception and have even donated to the Kickstarter.
Are you sure the 20$ version is even a Steam key?
So it is.

I wish I had your fortitude. I bought for Steam
and just signed a deal with the devil.
Here's hoping.
I will never hope for Nintendo to fail! That would probably start the downfall of the industry if that happens too.
I just have way too many childhood memories that would be destroyed should that happen.

Well, I bought it at release on disc, so technically, I'm in the same boat
Still, maybe they'll patch out the DRM. (Not very likely, sadly)

I loved Banjo-Kazooie and I would buy it in a heartbeat if it was released on steam. Unfortunately I didn't have the chance to play Banjo-Tooie since being a kid you could only have so many games and they were really expensive. I remember saving money from birthdays and christmas to finally buy a game once in a while.
Still have my N64, so I might look for a copy down the road haha.
Diddy Kong Racing was awesome!! Played the shit out of that game with my brother and sister. Good times

Just so you and anyone curious that may be considering this, I found the following information quite helpful and is supposedly needed to absolutely minimize the invasiveness of the program (as well as include a complete uninstaller when done with the game).

Good lord the memories... I still remember the absolutely epic race/battle against Wizpig!
Also, Banjo-Tooie had some bad framerate problems so I'd suggest the XBLA port if you have access to one. They also included the fabled Stop N Swap in the 360 versions. Perfect Dark also got a great XBLA port if you enjoyed that game.

i've had the opposite happen to me, i've recently become obsessed with collecting DRM free copies of games to go along with my steam version. luckily humble makes this pretty easy and cheap.
thanks again to hawkie for hooking me up with Prey. my "removed from steam" game collection is getting respectable!
