Wait, I own a game on Steam that you don't? Such madness!TRD3 was pulled a million moons ago (May 2010 but it was also part of the 2011 Codemasters Complete Pack, possibly by accident) so I'd start at 50-60 keys and work your way down if need be. I don't have the game myself but I can't say I'm interested in paying $100+ for it.
Ok, it's only because I'm a racing gamer mainly and thus own that, as well as most of the other pulled racers on Steam (Outrun, Sega Rally, Toca, Blur etc) because I bought them when they were on Steam initially and not after they got pulled.

The ghost is already very slow by default. It's there to psyche players out more than anything (
ignoring its ability to turn gems into more valuable diamonds
Focus on surviving from one exit from the next without sidetracking too much while learning the ropes, as you put it. Further exploration / scavenging can wait until after you've gotten more comfortable with the stages and the dangers they present.
I know, but it's still poop.
At least Ubisoft doesn't have monopoly on their games and releases their games on Steam too even though they require Uplay. Have to give Ubi credits for that.
EA just needs to stop their monopoly and release their games on Steam. I bet the reason they had so many sales on Steam in 2013 is because they get way more money from Steam than Origin.
Also, funny thing is, even though I have Origin in the taskbar, I still needed to ad my Origin games to Steam so I remember I own them.

You are in the thread where people think that Steam offline and out of business is better than origin.

They release their games on Steam and then require a shitty client to launch with them everytime.
It'd be nice if EA gave us the choice, but the Origin client itself is halfway decent, which is more than can be said for uPlay.
People just want that gamecount.
I'm so royally stuck at lltQueen, it's not even funny
for 4 hours I was trying to get any evil ending,
I begin to think this game somehow knows I'm not evil enough or something
for 4 hours I was trying to get any evil ending,
I miss all of those and I suspect my last 2 deaths lies in that direction too. I tried everything, killed everybody, did no good deed that I can see and still I get only good endings or deaths I already had, not even mentioning that for the love to Odin, I can't even make commoners rebel!

I still didn't get the commoner to rebel but have you tried to
fail during the religious ceremony where she leads the parade and makes a speech, I also think raising taxes and maybe failing or making a mess in the competition.
Excluding EA Partners titles, the two games EA yanked (Crysis 2 and Dragon Age 2), and franchise bundles (e.g. factoring in Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2, but not Mass Effect "Complete"), EA games were featured deals 92 times last year compared to 52 in 2012. I think the penny may finally drop this year.

I'm all for wishful thinking, but this is EA we're talking about.
Well, that's the optimistic take. The cynical prognostication is that EA will yank its other games in a misguided attempt to further force Origin adoption!
Thanks man!
Ha ha ha. The only reason they have increased Steam sales for previous instalments of a franchise is to up-sell you the Origin exclusive sequel.

You don't have it?Oh how I wish that was Arkham Asylum and not Arkham Asylum GOTY.

Thanks mate!
Quite possible, but to offer a different perspective there's the chance that this desired effect wasn't being seen throughout 2012.
Asylum vanilla was gone before I caught the bug.
I did try e-mailing WB for a key after the Asylum/City key redemption issues became apparent and the vanilla versions were removed from the subs created specifically for GFWL keys, but I was told that the GOTY Edition is the only version being offered, even though I explained that I understand the former are no longer being supported and I wanted it solely for my collection. I do have City and Origins vanilla, though, but this just makes Asylum vanilla's absence all the more frustrating, haha.

It's not like you even need it. The DLC is all but worthless.
Eh, I prefer EA's approach to Ubi's. If I have to use Origin (which I find pretty inoffensive, all things considered) to play something, that's fine. I'd be annoyed if I was forced to use Origin and Steam. It's redundant. Pubs should either go all-out and have their games do everything through Steam, or stick with whatever proprietary service they've whipped up. Don't tack Steam on as an additional layer just to say you did it.
Ubi's not exactly entirely innocent, either: no King Kong, no Tintin, no Anno 1701... but at least Anno 1404's on its way back.
I find it easier to have Ubi games with the added layer on Steam rather than juggle my game purchases between two or three digital download services.
Also, uPlay isn't that bad

If I run out of space on my hd can I start using a second hd for any new game installs and continue using my old hd for the old installs
And is Assassins creed liberation getting a preload at all or do ubisoft games generally not get one

...you know, "Xenus 2 and the Precursors" sounds like an 80's New Wave band. >.>
Ya, I did all that, I think I tried everything, but a game obviously thinks not yet! (><)
Amazing depth for such a simple game, as it would seem. I think I'll take a break, may be that will help to come up with new ideas.
If people pester Game Factory enough The Precursors may hit Steam, but Xenus 2 is another story -- both Beamdog and GamersGate no longer carry it.

Use Create new Steam library on drive X option.
This. I hate UPlay, but at least it automatically launches through Steam, and I have all games in my Steam library.
I would have bought Mass Effect 3 a long time ago if it were available on Steam. Same for Crysis 3 or the latest entries in Battlefield.
Any reason for that?
As with The Precursors, Game Factory published the English version it seems, so I'd guess its contract expired and Russobit-M wasn't interested in a renewal. Asking Russobit to put both games up on Greenlight may bear fruit, though. I'd guess Game Factory was enlisted to help because of its pre-existing presence on GamersGate.
Edit: Russobit doesn't seem to have an e-mail address listed for its sales department but you can try info@russobit-m.ru. Also, the site doesn't have an English language option so I'd keep it short and simple.
I just beat Mission 1 -actually the second mission after M0- of Revengeance and so far sogood.gif. Over-the-top as only Platinum knows (the first final boss is
), 60 fps with no drops, and a really fun and rewarding combat system. I seriously doubt I will get tired of Zandatsu kills. I will need to be a better player if I want to go through this, because it's really Parry-focused and I'm more a Dodge guy, so the timing is killing me. Literally, in the game. The only downside I have found is that the camera is closer to Raiden than I would have liked to, so sometimes I get unexpected hits on the back. I liked better the camera in Bayonetta, but every game I compare to Bayonetta lacks something so it's OK.
Also, this moment (really mild spoiler image) made me laugh so much. I like that the game is not taking itself too seriously. I'm really looking forward to everything else Revengeance has to offer.
PS: Thanks again to Falifax for the game

I don't think I've ever read a positive endorsement of MGR's camera system. I'm a tad surprised that it wasn't tweaked for the PC release.
Well that's why I bought the bundle in the first place cause I like to have everything but I guess I'll have to buy it separately.

they did at least put Crysis 2 back up with the Maximum Edition and presumably when Crysis 3 gets to that release it'll show up on Steam as well
Dragon Age 2 however never saw a complete release with all DLC so it's never come back to Steam
I think the future of EA on Steam all comes down to whoever blinks first about the changes to Steam's DLC policy that led to the removal and given it's been ~2 years? not sure anything is about to change
It's immensely annoying to me that I own both Crysis 2 and Crysis 2: ME on Origin but only the latter on Steam.

I had forgotten how annoying the disk slot in the Prey collector's edition was. Why would they put it on the tin :/
