Well folks, the M&M promotion comes to a close at Midnight Eastern tonight, so it looks we can post the final tallies:
In an incredibly definitive first place, with $222 dollars of M&M codes contributed is Jawmuncher! Fun fact: the Agol Velociraptor from Dino Crisis 3 is 222 centimeters tall. Coincidence?
Of course, thank you to everyone who gave a code and watched the Serious Streams. Special thanks to the following people who gave codes since the last update: Xclash for 1 code, default two for 3 codes, myshkin for 4 codes, cloudius12 for 4 codes, jawmuncher for 7 codes, Stallion Free for 3 codes, shadownet for 4 codes (and for still collecting them even while in the hospital!), and last but not least, BinaryPork2737 for 1 code.
Without further ado, the full scoreboard:
Grand Total: $1,434.00
Number of codes entered: 239
Number of months paid: 17+
Thanks again everyone! I'll keep you posted when/if the full rebates get posted to my account. We're still at $588.00 applied to the account, but Verizon is terrible and takes a while to do anything.

Mostly. It's a clever little game and it does a few things really well. It's all sorts of depressing though and is incredibly tedious.
That's interesting, I didn't find it tedious at all. On face value I'd say that the 'core gameplay' is mechanical but that it's all done that way for a reason. Once you start feeling comfortable with the speed at which you can process those visas then they add additional pressures such as an additional id card that you need to check, and this is along with the everyday pressure of processing as many as you can so that you can afford heat, food and medicine for sick family members.
It's a really well done game where the gameplay is the story and vice versa. I can see how people might think it's tedious but if you enjoy the premise then you'll enjoy getting through each day, meeting the people and making decisions about their visa status.
I really wish they just kept SR4 as a DLC as it was originally intended to be. SR4 went too far imo in the amount of craziness that it kind of hurt the game. If they did "reboot" the series I hope they go back toward what SR2 in terms of scope. I never did beat SR2 but I felt that one was the best game in the series. It's a shame that the PC port is basically garbage.
Papers, Please hooked my interest for a long time - it's well worth the $5.
Ah, well, my boyfriend got annoyed and offered to redeem the key for me... he has 300+ games and says he doesn't care about having a stupid game taint his list.
Turns out it was this game (so I was right XD):
Creepy brony-like game
lol. Apparently JaseC does have that game too!

So I've been having some problems changing the graphics settings in Riddick, the game crashes every time I try to change anything. I've worked around this by going into a file called "environment.cfg" which allows you to change each setting manually but I can't figure out how to change the texture setting. any ideas which setting applies to textures?
R_ANISOTROPY=1.000000
That's the only one to me that looks like a texture setting, try changing it to 16.000000
Didn't work, texture quality still says "low" in the menu.

i realize it's a crappy fantasy horse breeding game and it's just so easy to do but i guess that edit was necessary huhAh, well, my boyfriend got annoyed and offered to redeem the key for me... he has 300+ games and says he doesn't care about having a stupid game taint his list.

Hmm, not sure then, have you tried running it in compatibility mode?
Yeah, I'm currently running in Xp service pack 3 and I'm running it as administrator but it didn't help. Its an OpenGL game and I have Radeon 7870 so I shoudn't be surprised it doesn't work. It ran perfectly last year when I had a GTX 570...

R_PICMIPs are related to textures

PICMIP = picture multum in parvo
Try settings them to some power of 2
I found this awesome program that auto-categorizes your Steam library into a games' first-tagged genre from the store page! Pretty useful to get started on organizing your games like that, though it's not perfect.

You're not running RadeonPro by any chance?.....It was screwing up a few games for me at some point (including crashes when changing display settings). There was an option involving only using monitoring on games in the list which fixed it for me.
OMG, that was it, it works perfectly now, thanks.
Wow that was a shot in the dark, so glad it worked!

Goodbye, Mr. Meeseeks.
Picked up Mount Your Friends last night after watching the GB Quick Look of it. Can't wait to try it tonight.
You won't be disappointed, it's an absolute blast with a few friends.
Haha the amount of games that will be categorized as kawaii
I get this error whenever I try to launch Hotline Miami.

welp, it's been fun

what did you do?
tried verifying download?
basically you're missing an audio library there
or you might want to just google "OpenAl32.dll" and throw it on sys32
edit: also game directory and system, just spray it all over the place until it works
Did you try installing OpenAL? Also try searching for the DLL and placing it in the game directory.
