For those "free" games listed, do you have to "download" them to add them to your account? Like when I go to "buy" it installs but I dont want to download them all

I still haven't played Psychonauts. I want to correct that.

Are there any graphic mods for it? Does it need one?

I don't know if there are any graphics mods but I did use a patch to get x360 buttons displayed on screen. Even if it recognizes the gamepad it doesn't change the GUI, at least when I last played it. Not sure if was officialy patched or not since then.

Check the following thread, that is if you are playing with a gamepad instead of the keyboard and mouse

I know it's not really steam-related, but ....

I know it's a late response but I thought The Crew was surprisingly good and I'll play the new beta if they add new missions. Not sure about a day 1 purchase but I don't think there are any other big racing games this fall other than Driveclub/PS4 which could work in Crew's favor.

Speaking of free games I think Only If maybe has the weirdest achievements on Steam.

Some titles include "Move along, pervert..." and "Wincest!". Here's one achievement icon they use:

I added this game to my account, but since it's free it won't stay on my Library. Is there any way to put it there (other than installing the game)?

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Damn, South Park is really really good. I regret waiting to start it for so long.

Yeah, sleeping on South Park is a mistake. It's a shame the hype for it was allowed to fade because of THQ's bankruptcy.

At least we'll get some LTTP threads when the game finally gets a good discount.

So I noticed on games list that I now longer own Super Streetfighter IV and now have Ultra SFIV. However I never bought the upgrade. Is this just a general name change and it's still Super SFIV AE until I pay for the upgrade or are there certain circumstances were you get upgraded ? I can't think of any though.

Damn... I never thought I'd be wanting to buy a visual novel on Steam. Chou Dengeki Stryker:

I'm not even upset that the erotic sections are being removed for the Steam release. I'm sure it will matter for some folks.

That was probably one of the hypest opening movies for a visual novel I've ever seen. Damn. It's probably going to be nothing like that, but I can't not get hyped.

How many hours til Gamescom start?

5 days, 6 hours, 55 minutes.
That's incorrect.

Whoops, my bad.

Hoping there will be a way to patch back the scenes. You could with if my heart had wings with a fan patch. Loren Amazon Princess let you by changing the game to the demo or something. So a workaround rather than a fan patch would be nice. Will buy regardless though.

Do the AC games hav any 'must have' DLCs or are they all pointless cosmetics? Cuz I am now quite interested in AC Unity after reading some of the impressions.

...and Jase you like AssCreed 1? I mainly like it for its setting :p

Believe me, an all-ages version is always the better choice when it comes to a VN.
All Japanese games have porn scenes so terrible they can actively put you off of sex.
I miss the good old days of plain 'lactating pregnant cat-eared maid nurses being tentacle raped by animal demons', it seems every VN maker this days has to spice things up

You're right. Ultra Upgrade is a DLC you still need to buy.

Thanks :) I don't have it installed so couldn't take a quick look but I thought it would be that. I'll be buying it once Capcom have patched the PC version up, sounds a bit messy at the minute online wise.

Ca. 80hrs if my calculations are correct and they open on Wednesday the same time as the days after that for the public. http://http://www.gamescom-cologne..../termine_oeffnungszeiten/gamescom_termine.php

Hmm would this be accurate then?

I don't know if this has been listed, but Nuuvem has Metal Gear Rising(North, Central, and South America Region-only) for 16,99 = 7.42 USD

You must've missed the giveaways some 50ish posts back ;)
Then again this is the Steam thread, so it's not uncommon to miss giveaways made 50ish posts back :V

Ya, I've been trying to stay away and spend my GAF time on games instead. Haven't purchased a new game in 2 weeks, so this will be a good place to start.
 
My worse enemy in Speedrunners is myself. I keep accidentally hitting the Windows key and tabbing out of the game.

Lol I saw the achievements icons. They're all pretty weird.

I don't really think they'll add anything ... I'm guessing it'll be the same one but just open to everyone ... they're probably just stress-testing their servers at this point
