Oh god the pressure... should they be gone or taken off the shop floor... GAF will be disappoint.
But im pretty sure they did this a year or two ago, and Prey was there for 1 then also (I got my copy back then), so if theyre gone, they may return in the future.

I'd pay extra money via paypal to buy the prey code from you.
For those looking Metal Gear Risign and not wanting to go for nuveem theres dlgamer.eu with code DLG-YAGFG-5% (found it by googling randomly for theyre vouchers) it was 15.94 euros what was just slightly cheaper than the price on steam yesterday, and 4.05 cheaper than the current. Key arrived almost instantly and worked fine.
Never have used them before but found them from enhanced steam.

Is here anybody that has his OS on a SSD and lots of games?
Is it possible to have the games installed on another HDD in the system and not where the os (and steam) is? If you run out of memory on that?

Steam has support for putting libraries on other drives.
Preorders will still be downloaded to your Steam drive, as will quote a lot of Valve game data.
I think this has been mentioned before, but The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing is actually an incredible game.
It is an excellent isometric ARPG similar to Torchlight, but the visuals are really well done and beautiful. The polish is quite impressive for such a relatively obscure game. The combat is very satisfying (played as melee swords class).
I bought it after it released cards, and boy was it worth it. It's about 13 hours of gameplay that doesn't overstay its welcome. It has a really enjoyable tower defense style mini-game inside the core game that I wish they had a lot more of.
It's really a top-notch game, and it's almost criminal that it didn't get more attention last year. The good news is they are already working on a sequel, and from what they are saying, they are learning the right lessons as well (more of the good).

Alright, thanx. I was getting kinda worried but i guess that settles that.
Yep, but the animations in Skryim is a bit better.
After 2 hours Im now actually getting pretty bored by ESO.
It's also a better Diablo than Diablo 3.
I thought it was in some bundle I bought, so I was just looking if keys are available.
According to http://igbwiki.com/wiki/Keys_Added they were added to your Desury collection if you bought the Sigma Bundle (and redeemed the Desura key).
You can check here (click on "keys"):

So is Papers, Please.

Can bit.trip runner 2 be played at 120fps?
I just booted it up for the first time since I've got this display and 60fps looks blurry as fuck. I can literally see the gold bars jerk across the screen, they look blurry and gross.

best rogue-like on Steam
Well yes, but at least Van Helsing is the same game genre, not a rougelike like Papers, Please
Dammit, MMBosstones86
Oh hey, War of the Human Tanks got released on Steam.
Wonder if my keys came through.

Hmm, maybe I will hold out for the complete pack. If I buy the base game for 4 bucks I will probably never get a good deal on the DLC. I have massive DLC OCD. I must own it even if I have no intention of ever playing or using it.

Whats that and what would it do? (You're not talking about a simple shortcut i assume?)
It's like a shortcut. You can move the files to a different drive but still have everything point to where they came from so Steam can still find them.
Just get Steam Mover, it handles everything cleanly.

Papers, Please is definitely my favourite rouge-like, in that I really like any opportunity to spread the rouge.

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.
War of the Human Tanks is now released. Nice!

Good lord Metal Gear Rising is good.

Running lightboost on the desktop might help if the game is running in a window. It will eliminate most of the blur.
No groupees keys tho, unless they're automatically added to your desura collection page...
Can people stream it or there are all kinds of NDA?
I was watching The Soup the other day, and they were talking about Michael Bay's meltdown at that Samsung event and Joel McHale was all like, "Since when did Michael Bay care so much about a script? Hmm....He and I should host the VGAs next year. That's what we should do."
I laughed pretty hard.

Lots of NDAs. The game even overlays your email address on top of the game, in case you get any funny ideas.
I had a similar experience though - I played for a few hours and found it to be a very empty experience.
But that's really all I can say.
I'd play an Obsidian Elder Scrolls.

I wish my copy of Prey would show up so I could be like you guys. :|
All cool and smug with Prey on your steam profile? Yeah, it's pretty great.

Oh shit, I forgot I can play the ESO beta. Just finished Alpha Protocol, let's check this out.
Edit: This thing is 20 gigs? Holy fuckballs.

Obsidian handles the story and RPG mechanics
Platinum handles the gameplay
MMOs tend to be massive, 20 gb is kind of a small size considering.

Devs say they will be sending them out http://steamcommunity.com/app/263400/discussions/0/630802344255114170/ This also reminded me I bought that pigeon game from one of the groupees bundles...
That's why I passed on the beta when I was given a key awhile back. 20GB for like two days of gameplay was too much, considering my internet provider may have a softcap.
Elder Scrolls with Souls series combat is a better fit than over the top action I think.

The Old Republic feels huge as I find myself downloading updates more often than I'd like.
Hmm the Zenimax folder is 29GB. WoW is 27GB (maybe missing a patch)
