There is no region-lock on Steam cards, right? *lights the USGaf signal*
That'd essentially allow you to buy keys from the market at around $1.85, which is equal to the better deals from traders. Unfortunately I don't expect Steam Wallet codes here in Australia to expand beyond EB Games any time soon, if ever.
Nope. If you use a currency other than USD then the amount will just be converted.
I'm starting to get more into civilization 5 and actually liking it more than before (I first played it with a few seasoned friends and I was bored shirtless bbecause they explained stuff and basically told me what to do, taking out all the fun)
However around the mid game mark the game take a bit of a slump. We are basically just waiting for the tech tree to grow. Anything I should aim for to get the game going again? Around what time should I start attacking others?

Please accept idling.
I learned to quote wall from the best
Knock-knock has never been in a bundle, would love to pick that up along with The Last Door, Fading Hearts, The Yawhg, and Unholy Heights.
I didn't even know about that rumor. Might be interested if it keeps the same style as the original game.
Awesome. Will try this and see what happens. If it defies you I will get p***ed off on your behalf. If Linux supported all the games I have I would install SteamOS in a heart beat, maybe one day

I'm editing videos of Echo Night Beyond right now for my YouTube channel (have a huge backlog of videos to edit, literally over a thousand hours of game footage), but reminded me that I wish From Software would take some of its older efforts to Steam. Not just its horror games, but as a horror enthusiast, they had a few low-budget but good niche horror games in Echo Night, Echo Night Beyond, and Kuon.

I didn't know that From Software made Kuon, I was always interested in that game.
And of course, obligatory Metal Wolf Chaos comment.
Only if it gets Greenlit.
Looks pretty interesting. But my credit card is way over on that table, and I'm comfortable.
Probably a fools errand given IdleMaster but anyone want any coupons?
Volvo please, I want to be able to trash coupons.
you had 100% fun while I was sleeping?!
It actually works nicely, not first person one as Kenod was talking, but for example in 10,000,000, which is hilarious and frustrating together. I never would have believed, but it works maybe even too good!
totally OT, but don't do it, man!
I lived up with downgrade to win8 because it's faster than win7, but going to win8.1 is ever worse downgrade, because it's slower than win8!
I still can't believe nobody on steamgaf told me this, when I was asking is it worth moving to 8.1.
*so bitter now

My windows 8 to 8.1 upgraded install was slower than the original windows 8 install, yeah. I redid it with a straight Windows 8.1 install and it's the same as the regular Win8 install. Dunno what's up with that. I still need to get another key for my laptop so I can do it there as well.
Trashbot gets a lot of my business but I always like to offer them first in the slim chance someone wants one of these games. I universally already have what they offer me so they're a waste on my end.

Heh, personally I only use them on games with more than 75% off that have cards, the rest get trashed. Still happy about that 90% off Portal 2 I got recently.
Hate is such a strong word.
I'm more like ambivalent. Loved the game when I played it, but since then I've played tonnes of better games, and as such don't have rose-tinted glasses when thinking of the game.

Do you know if there is a way to do this with an OEM Windows 8 'key'? The whole 8-8.1 thing gets complicated as crap when you wanna clean install, what with the key being embedded in the bios now. At least so much as I've gathered.

Put a few hours into Killer is Dead.
Pretty damn enjoyable, though I have to edit a .ini to get 60 fps and then re-edit for 30 fps so a particular dating mission doesn't freeze.
Gallery has been updated btw: http://pepsimanvsjoe.minus.com/
(spoilers aplenty for Killer is Dead)

much envy, I wish there were tonnes of better games than FF7 (or Suikoden series, for that matter) in my universe.
I'm still waiting for one as good, let alone better (._.)
Not comparing with other genres, as that's not possible, talking about JRPGs.
not gonna do that, firstly because I'm lazy, secondly, I'm not so sure there is problem to fix, it even boots and shutdowns slower than 8. It's just how it is, difference isn't that huge, but at first 8.1 after 8 feels sluggish, I got used to it by now, but I still shouldn't have moved from 7, at the end of the day.

I was really hoping we would have at least got a preview video and a timer for the Groupees bundle by now.

I'll give you my old windows 8 key tomorrow, it got locked down because I accidently activated it to many times so MS emailed me to call them on a weekday, since I just got an SSD on Saturday I decided to just buy a 8.1 key for 25$ so I'll give you my old 8 key when I unlock it tomorrow
I used to fall for the 90% ones every time, but after buying a game that wasn't what I thought it was (silly me didn't do his research) I kinda got over that.
Where are these cheap Win 8.1 keys at? Not that I actually want one right now but it'd be good to know where legit sources of these things are for the future.

Cheers! Ye ol' trading is the way to go with these digital stuffs.
It was initially possible to delete items from one's inventory, but in a case of "This is why we can't have nice things", people abused the functionality when L4D2 released and it was discovered that Valve was giving Vintage Bill's Hats to those who'd accidentally (or "accidentally") deleted the Genuine they'd received for pre-ordering. Towards the end of Dota 2's closed beta period it was possible to delete invites, though.
I have to check that game out then!
I'd pay some sweet cash to have this game and the sequel (which I like a lot more) on Steam. The PC version of LBA had a few (in my opinion) questionable choices that were fixed or improved in the PS1 port, so I consider that one the superior version though.
need a US friend to help me with PSN and eShop credit :/
There were talks of a remake back in 2011. Maybe we'll hear more about it soon.

Nice, I almost bought it on the last GOG sale.
if anybody has leftover of blue coins, you can get Montague's Mount free on gamersgate. Only I was wondering, how bad this game is? (about to get for coins)

PSN cards are region locked
I just got Selknam Defense key, thanks meridian, you are good people!
ya, it works like charm... except if you plan to play online, don't buy online games this way! I did this mistake once, never again

Create a second, foreign account, add money via code, buy games, download games, log in with your normal account, play games.
I didn't know that, what happens exactly? Does neither the original nor the foreign account work?

In no particular order (and only games newer than FF7):
Final Fantasy VIII
Final Fantasy IX
Final Fantasy XII
Final Fantasy Tactics (either PSP version, or PS1 patched with PSP translation)
Vagrant Story
SaGa Frontier II
Dragon Quest 8
Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne
Digital Devil Saga
Etrian Odyssey 3
Valkyrie Profile
not true for me, not even close, nothing from that list, and I like most games there.
._. I have a US PSN and US eShop account
It's such a pity the FF7 PC rerelease hasn't been retranslated - the original translation is borderline incomprehensible at times, which is a major PITA in a story oriented game like FF7. :\
In other news, Valve can now just pack up and go home. GOG wins the digital store game.
Wow, I remember TotalBiscuit back when he was a complete nobody.
There was one for Android, which I own (but haven't played). That said, I want it on PC. The sequel is fine, as far as I remember, but I wouldn't complain if it gets remade too
The soundtracks are perfect and need to be left alone. Damn, I want to replay Twinsen's Odyssey now.
game servers are region specific, I couldn't play from my local EU account at all, I couldn't even get access to servers. I could theoretically play on US account, I know some people do that, depending on game, you would be at disadvantage, though.
edited: no opinions on Montague's Mount? I wish Dusk was here (><)
OMG its over! It's finally over!
I've been saying this badge crafting nonsense is over for a while as soon as I get to 50 and I got there. No more recycling card drops into more cards....just gonna sit on that $0.06 or so per card until it becomes enough to buy a TF2 key with.
Who am I kidding I'll probably just keep crafting anyway.
