Sigh, that beaten / not beaten idea was great until I actually did it. Now I'm stuck knowing I'll probably never finish the games in "Unbeaten" section, and from here on I'll only add to it. :(

I usually get around to everything eventually.

Of course, some games end up "unbeaten" because they're just not very good/worth your time.

I need a multi category option badly :( I put the games in some genre categories AND in "notebook" and "desktop" earlier in the beta. With my >100 games I'd like to have this back :(

a "not installed" preset category would be nice as well

I would organize my games again like I did in Beta, but honestly...I have about half my games installed.

So I just view my games through "Installed" and split the games between Favorites and Games...

Not until they're convinced everyone is frustrated by their sporadic GTA sale pricing strategy.

Yeah this is really annoying. I just want the Max Payne Collection, GTA San Andreas, and Bully but these have all been on sale for a couple hours when I'm at work. I'm not going to buy the Rockstar Collection so I'm probably not going to end up buying anything.

Stupid times for everyone except the US Too.

Six hour EFLC sale at the same price as before (22.50, 25% off).

No way I'm paying three times as much for the expansion as the game itself.
:lol

Why not? It just came out and it is standalone. There is probably more content (not to mention better content) in the two episodes combined than there is in vanilla GTAIV.

You have to understand something that is common in this thread: Gaf is cheap as fuck. It doesn't matter if the game has 100+ hours of gameplay and costs 2.50$ they will still fucking make posts asking if it's worth it or about how they are passing up on it because they can't handle the price.

I paid $7.50 for vanilla GTA4 and I'm barely 25% through it. And again, I have a backlog, so it's not like I'm actively looking for games to throw my money at. :lol

Also Stallion is right, I'm a CAG.

Click "Category" and then "Add Category" on the right side of the library.

Nope, though an admin related to Valve said that they're still waiting on the keys and that it should be soon. This was about 2 hours ago.

GTAIV actually looks and runs better on my PC (with all high settings) than it did on my 360.

Er well Torchlight currently takes up about half the size of whatever is dling for us, sooo....fat ass update? Everyone who owns Torchlight seems to be dling w/e it is.

Yeah, my game's uploading as well. Don't think it's multiplayer since the developers said they wanted to release the multiplayer seperately or something... or so I've heard.

Yeah unless they've changed plans dramatically, Torchlight will never be multiplayer. (Except possibly through that one mod.)

The multiplayer "Torchlight" will be a free-to-play MMO ala uh... what was it called...

Mythic? I think. I forget!

Not the first time a game has updated for me and the news wasn't posted until hours later.

I was trying to think of an instance where this was the case and was at a loss. I'll take your word on it though.

Steam Torchlight is at 1.14

This looks good:

Runic Games said:
New Content

Patch 1.15 includes 5 new challenge room maps to test your bravery and wit! New players can now obtain these maps as rewards for completing various quests from Vasman in Torchlight. New challenges await in the Tomb of the Awakened, Estherian Ruins, Dwarven Fortress, Molten Prison, and Black Palace.

Some on the Steam Forums seem to think it's an Editor related update.

Last one I can think of was NBA 2K10 which got the patch but then didn't get the news item posted for like a day and a half.

Valve is usually instant with them, but third parties sometimes are not as fast. Especially if they have multiple versions of the game and the patches come out at different times. (Like 2K does for 2K10, retail, Steam, Gamersgate, D2D, etc. all needed specific patches.)

huh I wonder why it says 1.2 on steam, whatever. Someone on steam forums has finished dling, it says 1.15 so I guess thats the update.

Maybe it needed to re-download the whole game to update...?
