Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City is 25% off again for the next six hours (ends 11pm EDT)

Wasn't this 75% off at one point during this week? Or has it never gone lower than 25% off?

no, 25% off has been the biggest discount it has had

 

[chixdiggit]

No problems here, i just added midnight club 2 even though i don't wish i had it.

That's odd it won't work for just me. I guess I'll shoot Steam an E-mail and see what they have to say.

I do remember buying it for 7.50 and that's not 25% off

 

[Thomper]

Pretty sure that was just the original GTAIV, not these expansions?

 

[Rufus]

I do remember buying it for 7.50 and that's not 25% off

Are you absolutely sure you are thinking of the right collection?

 

[Easy_D]

Hey what does GAF think of Flotilla? I heard the Thumbs guys talking about it and it seems interesting.

Try the demo and find out for yourself

 

[ClovingWestbrook]

That was GTA4 vanilla.

Amazing and fun game! It is, as the thread title states, procedurally generated turn based homeworld. And there's a demo! Try it! Buy it! Love it!

Dammit, these repeat deals finally got me to cave on EFLC. I still haven't played BoGT, and this is probably as cheap as they're going to get for a while.

Spoiler

I feel so used.

 

[John]

Dammit Steam.

 

[Archie]

I hope you remember your character's names!

 

[rohlfinator]

Dammit Steam.

Does Steam give you a CD key? If so you could probably just download the client from guildwars.com. I've always had pretty good connection speeds from ArenaNet's servers.

If you can do it that way, you also get the bonus of being able to start playing before the full game has finished downloading. It only streams the areas you need.

 

[Kerrinck]

Got EFLC last time it was on sale, 17$ is too good a deal to pass.

Change to a less trafficked server... France is always nice.

for $17 I might cave but since it's $22.49 here in America I think I'll pass

plus I want to get a blu-ray drive for my laptop so trying to save at least some money, no help from Steam there :lol

Yeah, kinda odd for it to be cheaper in here. It usually mirrors the US store price.

 

[bathala]

yeah nvm

 

[speculawyer]

Yeah, this is why I just bought the whole pack.

 

[zombieshavebrains]

Dammit Steam.

Genius idea for the "beaten" "unbeaten" categories, for some reason that never occurred to me.

 

[Archie]

The category listing is the best part of the new UI. I have mine set up like this:

I do wish I could move the 'Now Playing' tab to the top, though.

 

[zombieshavebrains]

Rainy Day...lol

I set up a "Beaten" with all 4 of them, an "Unbeaten", then "Working on it"

What's in Rainy Day? :lol

 

[Archie]

What's in Rainy Day? :lol

Games I bought for cheap and realized that I have no desire to play them. Sadly, it is my largest category. :'(

 

[Brazil]

Rainy Day. :lol

Totally off GTA topic but I just played PvZ demo and was wondering if anyone knew when was the last time it went on sale on Steam..

I think it was during christmas sale.

From its app page, click related news, and it will give you this.

You can do this. Just right click on GWT -> Properties -> Visit Guild Wars Account Site and it sends you to a NC Soft page with the key auto-entered and then you just tie it to your account. Then you can just grab the client from them if you want.

 

[Somnia]

Dammit Steam.

Thanks for the idea on beaten/unbeaten

 

[kuYuri]

How do you change category name?

 

[Gully State]

Damn I want to pick it up but I'll end up double dipping on the iPad version as well..

 

[John]

Thanks for the idea on beaten/unbeaten

The idea is that I ignore the ones I've already done and get my unambitious ass around to playing some of the dozens of unbeaten games I've got lying around.

 

[Oreoleo]

How do you change category name?

You don't. AFAIK you have to make a new category. The only way to get rid of the misnamed category is to remove all the games from it.

 

[Schmattakopf]

They need a better category editor (and one that can be opened without clicking on a game first, but that's minor).

 

[kuYuri]

You don't. AFAIK you have to make a new category. The only way to get rid of the misnamed category is to remove all the games from it.

Ok, so how do you create new categories? I can't seem to find it.

 

[Somnia]

right click a game and then create category, or add category. Something like that.

 

[Dead Prince]

Set Category...

 

[kuYuri]

Thanks guys. Figures it'd be something as simple as that. >_>

Can anyone tell me how to run Dirt 2 in full screen?

 

[Dead Prince]

Can anyone tell me how to run Dirt 2 in full screen?

run the game and go into options which happens to be when you go "outside" to set all the graphical stuff. but wasn't it already in full-screen from the beginning? o.o. actually i dont' think there is full screen option. or Alt-Enter.

 

[Stallion Free]

Alt-enter? That's what did the trick for me.

For some reason it wasn't, and there is no option. Alt-Enter worked though, thanks guys.

 

[MmmSkyscraper]

Put an underscore in front of "Now", i.e. "_Now Playing".

 

[Jirotrom]

still debating Dirt 2... i want it, but money is so tight right now...

 

[LocoMrPollock]

Buy it and eat ramen for a day or 2.

[evil solrac v3.0]

Dammit Steam.

[robatw]

If i buy that Rockstar Collection - will i get the possibility to gift GTA IV because i already bought it during the christmas sale?

No. There are very few instances where you can do that.
