I'm having a bit of a problem with Steam that I was hoping somebody here could help with. A handful of my games won't launch for some reason, the 'preparing to launch' window will pop up for no longer than 2 seconds then disappear, there are no error messages or anything. Some games still work but so far the Black Ops 3 beta, MGSV: Ground Zeroes and Resident Evil Remaster all won't launch at all.

I've tried reinstalling them, verifying the game cache and updating drivers but nothing has solved it. The only thing that has changed since they worked in the past has been the installation of Windows 10, has this been a known issue since it launched?

I'd really appreciate the help, thanks.

Have you tried compatibility mode for Windows 7 or 8.1? Sorry if that seems obvious, didn't see it on your list of things you tried though.

Buying PS1 Rockman collection instead it gots more features.

Troll post?
The PSOne ports are worse.
Do you even read Japanese cuz all they add is Easy mode and a gallery.
FYI the gallery in Legacy is quite big with more stuff than the PSone games' galleries.

Minecraft is a super boring game :/ how its so popular is beyond me

To me, it is one of the best games released in the past decade.
I love those games with no narrative, and where I get a field where I can just build whatever I wanna build.

Well that would be cheaper than the 64.99 the Star Wars pack currently is. Did 2.0 allow you to play the actual missions or was it only toy box?

Some missions. To be honest, I got bored after a bit and forgot to go back. I think that the Avengers missions were playable (and some of the Avengers characters were unlocked)

To be fair the general consensus was 2.0 all around was a bore fest. Hoping 3.0 is good, so far it sounds like it is.

Why not just let the Disk Cleanup utility run?

Yeah it is, I just got on a streak of finishing games in my backlog and deleting them, ended up with a bunch of extra HDD space.

Ah, that makes sense. The way you phrased it made it sound like you were vastly overestimating the size of the game.

I just moved a 25 GB game from my SSD to my HDD, so I'm ready.

Steam-GAF's Official Ambassador to Gaming-GAF
Papo & Yo developer’s Time Machine VR has launched on Steam Early Access

Time Machine VR is one of the first “truly native VR games” to hit Steam Early Access, and it uses Oculus Rift DK2 or Crescent Bay along with a controller.

In the VR game, human face extinction due to a plague. You play as a time-travelling scientist who travels back to the Jurassic period to extract DNA from dinosaurs and the like in order to save the human race.

Players will pilot the time machine through the prehistoric oceans and “navigate a dangerous food chain,” all the while “tracking, probing, scanning and baiting” the beasts.

A playable 10-minute demo is available for free on Steam, with premium access to the game’s first hours of content available at an introductory price of $9.99.

Minority plans to release major updates throughout the rest of the year, approximately every four weeks. The game will be expanded with new levels, creatures, features, and more. The price of the game will increase with every major update.

Well, somebody doesn't own Besiege yet. That person should totally not buy it on Humblebundle for 5 bucks. It won't ever bother me.
