Hey GAF,
Just wanted to give everyone here a heads up that the Patreon campaign for Enhanced Steam is now under way!
http://www.patreon.com/enhancedsteam
Here's how it works - you sign up for Patreon, then enter an amount you'd like to donate on a monthly basis to help support Enhanced Steam's continued existence. If you donate over $5, you get a special "Enhanced Steam Supporter" badge for your Steam profile. There are gold, silver, and bronze badges for different levels of support.
Even if you can't donate $5 a month, every little bit helps.
I'm not begging for donations, I just wanted to let everyone know that the campaign was live.
You should have taken a picture in front of an old PC running Windows 98 with a CRT monitor. Now you look too rich to begin with. I wish you donated me money

Looks like they're hinting at the mystery game!
Uplay only mate, but you could always e-mail Ubi and ask for a Steam code =P

What!? You can do that?
^ I think this is the first time a hint has actually left me more confused than I was before.

Started Stalker Call of Pripyat back up to play Misery 2.1(and because it's an incredible game) only to realize that I had forgotten that the dev team had been shut down down and Stalker 2 canceled ;-; At least the team reunited elsewhere.....to make a f2p online game.
EA updated the Crysis and Mass Effect bundles earlier. They're probably going to be Weeklies again.
Which reminds me, I need to hit up GSC again about STALKER RU.

Wow, I passed the 1000 games mark a few days ago, and I did not even notice it. 1011 already now...
It seems that Omikron was my 1000th game. Not a bad choice.

Just a short time ago EA was arguing that sales devalue their IPs.
The irony lie in EA devaluing Valve's weekly sales.

Do it.
It's not all bad. The STALKER legacy will live on. I'm not sure STALKER 2 could have lived up to the hype but it's nice to dream.
Anyway this is probably a good time to mention that the Misery mod team have a Kickstarter going for a very STALKER-esque looking game

If I weren't poor I would definitely back it.

It's not a first-person survival game, though, so how's it STALKER-esque?
just turned 26! i'm depressingly closer to 30 than 20 but hey, that's life
Happy Birthday! Being in your 20's is far better than being in your 30's. I would know.

Oh man, Misery has a Doom 3 style flashlight system. I'm boned.

thanks steam gaf for being the best friends ever
love you all :3
also my bro just gave me a copy of dks2 pc so here's hoping it's all that grief ever dreamed of and more
happy birthday
BFG edition has no mod support but the marine finally found some tape
But I suppose you could have just modded that in anyway, haha
i know ;( although i think that might be selling it a bit short, i get the impression it will be similar to old-school adventure type games as well.Its a 2D chhoose your story book ,
visually, i mean. cataclysmic event wipes out large portion of the population in industrial europe. they are clearly going for similar themes even if its not a shooty game.
All in due time!

You say that like it's a bad thing. The world needs more 2D interactive novels.
well, no. not in and of itself. but with the legacy of stalker, and the work the team did on misery mod it's hard not to wish it were a bit more. but it's still something i'm interested in, definitely. whatever vision the team has i'm confident they can nail it, and maybe from there move on to bigger and better.
Happy birthday! That is a good brother.
Not looking up for the lighting in the PC release, but we can keep hoping. Looks like previews are starting up tomorrow.

https://twitter.com/Reives_Freebird/status/453044661259489280Okay, the To the Moon Steam cards are now set for review. c: Hopefully it goes through alright. pic.twitter.com/8HAeDuCyUK
Ooh, To The Moon is getting steam trading cards.
Hopefully for those of you who haven't played the game yet, this'll push you over the edge because To The Moon is a fantastic game and it's one of the few games that have made me pretty damn emotional.

True. I'd love another Stalker entry, even as a mod, or even another Stalker-esque game.
In other news, Flappy Bird, or at least a clone of it, might make it onto Steam after all. Though in a more mature, adult format.
Argh I hate when games I've already played get cards. They should unlock them based on my current playtime. Or giving me a faster connection, because I can't live like this for 20c anymore. :'(
Just run the game on your off time, or use SAM, or that one weird appid text trick that Steam hates you for it.
I've always ditched SAM for, like, staying true to Gaben, so I don't remember: does it work with not installed games?
Because my main problem isn't really the idling part, but the downloading one, as my speed caps at 600KBps, and when I'm over 300KBps I basically cannot browse anymore. (great value for a 20Mbps promised connection!

I wouldn't download a large game just to get some cards. SAM is the best choice for it
I hate worms as much as the next guys, but this is great news nonetheless! Going to install SAM as soon as possible, because I totally need cash to be ready to buy Red Dead Redemption and Anno 1404!
Speaking of which: in these days I've a huge need of a city-builder/light-strategy fix (ie. from Sim City to Caesar), and I've noticed I don't own anything of this genre on Steam.
Is there something you would suggest me that is super low-priced?
I'd totally play Anno 2070 (often on sale, IIRC), but I'm kinda scared of the overload of DRM involved.

Banished ($19.99)
EDIT: On a budget, I'd say StarTopia ($6.99). Had lots of fun with that.
Yup, I know. I was talking "against" it when I said "super low-priced".
Anyway, it's very high in my wishlist, and one I'm sure I'll buy as soon as I see it better priced for my wallet.
And this led me to think about Gaslamp Games' "Clockwork Empires", of which I've been following the development on and off for years now, and I've yet to see a motherfucking release date (Spring 2014, yeah...) as, considering my huge love for Dredmor, I guess that would be my next GOTG for sure.
EDIT: wut! When Startopia was re-released I had a brief look at the screenshots and "tagged" it as an RTS!
But if it has city-building features... that and being from an ex-Bullfrog people studio, well, damn! Thanks!

Red Dead Redemption confirmed to PC or are just waiting for an announcement?
As for city builder, Sim City 4 is a great game
*Inserts comment on lack of Steam title number epenis measurement argument*
GOG clashes with the fact I'm trying to keep everything on Steam, but thanks anyway!
Also, I realized I have Dungeon Keeper in my GOG account.
Oh for christ sake, I should totally make a fucking spreadsheet of everything I own, because I just don't know anymore. :'(
I actually prefer GOG for older games. If the Steam versions would have cards/achievements/workshop support, sure. Most of the time they are verbatim GOG copies (sometimes with Steam DRM added).
You can always double dip on sale (still will be cheaper than buying full price), or use bundles to pony up your Steam score.
Ah no, just making a pun about two non-Steam games that filled this thread in the last couple of days.
And I've spent so many hours on SC4 (and Rush Hour) back in the days (meaning: until like 5-6 months ago top) that I just can't stand it anymore (meaning: for another couple of months top).
I'm about to hit the pre-order button of Watch_Dawgs Deluxe ($69.99) guys. Somebody tell me I'm making a mistake.

1- UPlay
2- What would
Derrick
3- The game runs the risk of suffering from the typical pointless dragging of game time that various Open World games suffer from
4- Summer Sale is on the horizon
