gave away the keys to the kingdom.
Got added by a person with private profile the day I'm leaving the US, I asked the person "do I know you", then went offline. When I got off at Tokyo, I found out that person has already unfriended me.

Any chance that these hackers got the GAF id list and unleashed a wave of phishing bots on us? Seems that a lot of people from here that are not even trading are spammed by them. I get 5-6 phishing bot invites a day and I haven't posted on outpost or streamtrades for months

Is your inventory private or public? I only ever get scammers when my inventory is set to public.

Why am I not getting all those scam attempts?
Am I so ugly, even Russian teenagers don't find me attractive?
Me neither, my friend. Me neither...

If you want, we could fake a scam between each other, just so we can know how it feels.

Lol, Metro 2033 Redux gets card right after I spend my card money to buy State of Decay. It didn't have 'em yesterday. :'(

Last Light Redux was dropping them yesterday but I didn't see anything for 2033 Redux. Oh well more money in the wallet.

Hmmm, I might get all the Zork modern games.

Nemesis is very good from what I recall. Speaking of GOG Hogs of War recently got added which is kind of like a 3D version of Worms but with pigs and is narrated/commentated by Rik Mayall.

Public. But still it, I find it pretty weird that I am getting so many scam invites as I only have a couple of inactive trades on outpost from months ago.
 
All of Activision deals have been 75% off previously.
And no, these are not getting removed soon. Only Nordic and Frictional are leaving Steam.

Thanks for the tip.

Yeah, Nemesis is great, I have it retail from back when it was released, haven't played the other two.

Sooo TWD2 is broken.

Changed resolution to 2560x1600 and now I can't move the mouse to the bottom part of the screen.

Meaning I can't change the resolution back.

edit: I'll play with a controller I guess
 
Around this time next month, I should be able to give you guys a heads up on how Shadow of Mordor runs on a lowly 2500k and 560ti, far under their recommended specs of an i13-8900kzr and 22 square feet of nothing but SLI'ed graphic cards.

Age of Mythology: ROW and RU/CIS-specific subs, however while the ROW four-pack and four-pack gift subs are region-locked, single ROW copies are not, so they can be bought on the cheap through traders who use the cross-region purchasing trick.

Rise of Nations: Universal subs, but as with AoM only the four-pack and four-pack gift subs are region-locked.

Thanks, now to decide whether I want to buy them now or wait for 75%

Nice Thread BTW!

That's how my first post should go right? Anyway after being a long time lurker I thought I should join the community and I figured within the past day or so I can do better than that.

nice game btw

don't forget nonexistant gameplay outside of mashing a button pretty much

I don't get why TellTale games get this sort of criticism, what kind of gameplay are you expecting other than exploring areas, talking to people and occasional use of items? It's not an RPG or action game, it's a point & click style game.

The main point of the post has to be the title, and "nice thread BTW" the only text in the body.


Welcome

Well after being demoted to under-500-games when Valve removed all f2p +1s, I got back to 497 and in the end decided to fill the remaining gap with the Adult Swim bundle cheapest tier.
And I made sure that my 500 game was Super Puzzle Platformer Deluxe, just because yesterday derExperte was all omfg it's the best game ever everyone buy it or something.

So if it sucks instead, I'm gonna be SO pissed off with not only him but his entire nation, to the point I'll start calling all German people I know (and the thousands of people who emigrated from Rome to Berlin) with the immortal words Mr. Berlusconi stated about their chancellor: "unfuckable lardass".

Can't access my HB account due to it deciding not to send the SMS token anymore to my phone and its been over 10 hours since I contacted support via their system and on twitter.

I think it is my phone but how can I troubleshoot that? I got SMS messages today from a bunch of people.

Something seems to have gone wrong with one of the three games I included, but I'll deal with it later because I've got to get going. Enjoy.

Seeing all these "nice thread btw" posts, I'm actually starting to fear what will happen during the next thread switch over.

Like, what if that new thread won't be as nice as this one?

It should work, it doesn't have the "This game cannot be redeemed in Germany" tag like wolfenstein did.

Are you sure? Didn't capcom reverse their censoring-flag? There was some major happiness among the German zombie-killing community.

Yes. It was region-locked for Germany for a time, weeks after the game became available, but common sense ultimately prevailed.
Nice! I didn't know that. Thanks for the replies!
