Yesterday I played less than an hour of Goat Simulator, and didn't stopped laughing all they way.
Is it wrong I've had more fun so far with this game than the whole of the last Castlevania and Tomb Raider?

I might buy it if the Weekend Deals don't interest me.

JaseC I think the issue with those games might have been how I moved them over.
I recall you mentioned that to me when I first did it since I recall I just copied and pasted them onto the HDD without the shell link the first time I did it. Only thing I can assume is the ones that came from my laptop and were then put in the HDD just bugged out for some reason. Perhaps a file saying it was from the Laptop but it was trying to run it from somewhere else is all I can think of.

I found it more funny than I should, thanks! (><)
I somehow managed to get £1.90 and should have another 50p plus two or three other achievements coming to me when it next updates, plus however many Goat Simulator achievements I can grab. This might actually make me check GMG all the time, ha.

Thats just irritating since I can't get Playfire to actually work for me :\
how are people getting cash for playfire? i unlocked so many achievements and it is still at $0
Send them a ticket. Follow the ticket format and give them your playfire/gmg account email and stuff, tell them what rewards you are missing. They got back to me in like a week, which is pretty slow imo, but they added in my rewards. After that, I think it got fixed and now my rewards update automatically.
Gotta be patient.

Yeah, Sent one a while back, something seems to have been updated as I got an email about it adding my Steam account, but its still not tracking. Sent another one but not heard anything since.

I can't remember Davey Wreden talking about the possiblity of a console port, so I guess the answer is no.

Did you unlock the achievements while they were active challenges (for want of a better word) on Playfire? Check http://www.playfire.com/a/rewards to see if they're listed there. If they are, log into your GMG account if you haven't done so in a while. If that doesn't cause the credit to be applied in the next hour or so, raise a ticket.
How many hours till this bundle is out?
yeah there deff is a glitch
the last time i bought anything from GMG was in jan and looking at the order confirmation, i only used 0.20 worth of credit
I had trouble finding the reward page, ha. Is the link to it actually visible anywhere on the main site or am I just blind?
Anyways, found it in the KB article and looks like my last reward with a tick is from 17th of January. Then a large time gap, and then a bunch of "played a game for a first time" from 26th and 27th of March without a tick. Dunno, maybe nothing happened during those 2 months.
I haven't actually tried to go after any of the rewards, just kind of thought that it would work itself out in the background.So I guess it's working now, since those "first time games" are pretty recent, just hasn't transferred over to gmg yet.
I'd probably jump on those Blackgate rewards if I had actually played Origins already. Damn backlog.

Dark Sector is a dollar over at BundleStars
http://www.bundlestars.com/store/da...utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=deals+02042014
Well worth the price if you haven't gotten it in a bundle yet.
Also Dino D-Day is a dollar as well but that games is sucks.

Would be amazing with VR!
Apparently, most ships will have most of this info in little screens throughout your cockpit instead of inside your helmet. This is a fighter ship, so it is assumed the user will be wearing a helmet.
I assume the games that reside on your HDD are in a folder that you've designated within Steam as a secondary library folder. Did you move the games into Your-library-folder\SteamApps\common (the common folder isn't generated automatically)?

Thats what I did at first until you told me about the shell link. The games that were on the laptop I dragged and dropped onto the external before I did the shell. I think when I did that and tried to play them from there (once again before the shell) it deleted them or did something to make it so that steam wanted to download them again. Then I guess the damage was already done with those titles even after I used the shell link.
I just can't believe I spent $22.49 on this shit and now it becomes $2 in less than a month.

I don't even have a gif for this. This looks damn incredible.

Yup, on the homepage if you click the balance it'll take you through. I realise that's not brilliant or obvious, which is why we're rebuilding the rewards page and changing a few UX things in the near future.
We did have a huge bug with rewards, which you can read about here. That's why there's that gap
Make sure you log into your GMG account and wait 12-24 hours otherwise it won't transfer/deposit. That's a beta niggle, apologies.
Ok, thank you. This means The Stanley Parable will be my number 500 game
To celebrate this occasion and because I got so lucky with recent giveaways, I want to give something back.
The winner from this raffle can choose 1 game* under 10 from Steam, Humble store or GMG he will receive from me as a gift.
*The game has to be available in Germany (e.g. Typing of the Dead isn't). Beware of censored versions.

It's good isn't it?
From screens I thought it would be a straight forward metroidvania and I was okay with that. I was really surprised to find it was so story driven. Normally all the talky talky parts would be a huge turn off for me but the voice work and simple animation in those parts was so well done I found it enchanting and couldn't help but love the two characters. Glad you're enjoying it
.Metroid Prime HD is that you?
Oh, getting this for Stronghold Crusader HD. Cheers.
still no beta key.
Oh, I thought they'd gone out already.
tnx for NTTE

One day i'll have a pc worthy of this game.
Capcom games post-DMC3/O3/first RE4 port have been absolutely excellent, DMC4 ran butter smooth (although not locked to 60fps, always above 45) on my laptop with 2GHz C2D and 8600M GT
as they said they sent beta keys every week.
or ask one from him?
I'm not particularly fussed. It's not as though I'd play the game.
Didn't they plan from the beginning to sell a cheap Steam Machine that would allow for easy in-home streaming?
Nah, Gabe was just explaining the three tiers he saw Steam Machines falling into (small devices for streaming, more expensive systems that strike a balance between price and power, and high-end systems that go for broke). Valve had intended to release its own machine that fell into tier #2 but later put the idea on the backburner in favour of seeing how people react to third-party offerings.
