Yes, I have been doing that for the past few days. You can even have multiple games open at once. But also as the Steam servers are busy, sometimes no cards will drop for a few hours, and then all at once several will drop in a span of a few minutes for you.

Keep it like that, you're happier that way.
Does it matter if you're just in the title screen or do you have to be in the game to get them to drop?
Yeah new crates are worth each like $5 the first day or two they start dropping, so they easily pay for the game (if bought on sale) or the map passes they belong to. Anyone on the fence about picking up the game should keep that in mind and just jump in.

Nope, doesn't matter as long as SOMETHING launched. Even those windows that you can sometimes open before a game where you put in the PC settings count.

Christ, now the servers are down so I can't activate the game just to play offline.
I know, I know, welcome to 2008 but THIS is the reason I had no interest in the supposedly "triple-A" titles. The best games, a logical person's idea of "triple A" , of the last decade didn't make me do this shit.

Can you get the season pass after they're out?
I'm not really familiar with it, I don't think I'd ever buy one lol

Yes you can, I have never seen a Season Pass disappear for a product.

Yes. It's basically a permanent DLC bundle.

ok , anyone know cheapest deal on CRYSIS 3 , battlefield 4 or fifa 14 ???
Wow thanks! Time to start earning cards then, wish I had known this before the start of the sale, could have payed off a few games with just my steam wallet.

Keep in mind that it's an Origin Key, as Crysis 3 is not on Steam. I believe GamersGate if I'm not mistaken.

Asking for a friend: http://www.getgamesgo.com/product/borderlands-2-mac-goty does this give you the PC version of B2 on Steam too? Great price if yes.
Unfortunately more and more passes give you only a fraction of all released DLC. See Borderlands 2.

Bought it also and looking at the stats..second most played game.
Now I want to see a Western-themed game where "Expansion Pass" is the area all the add-on content gets added to.
"Buy Showdown at Expansion Pass for only $9.99!"
hmm I guess it sucks for people who wants to jump on the DLCs as soon as possible.

Y-Yeah, t-totally...
Has a bad habit of buying season passes for games he's interested in the DLC for, such as Last of Us and Bioshock Infinite.
That's not a bad idea, a mechanic like that could be interesting if handled with care and putting the right hooks into the game before-hand. It wouldn't work for story-based games I imagine, but something a bit more open-world and silly might work wonders with something like that.

If you like the Total Wars games, Medieval 2 is probably one of the best. So yeah, go for it.

I sucked six dicks to get this tag.
Heard the port doesn't even have all the features of the current gen version let alone the next gen version.

I think it may go lower. It popped up today and was replaced by Serious Sam in the flash sale, and it's been cheaper on Steam before.

But really, the bottom end on it has been $2.49 at multiple places now. It'll be that price again at some point.
There still is Quake Live... Unless you only want games on Steam, then supposedly they are leaving browsers soon ang going for a standalone version, which supposedly will be on Steam as well.
It wouldn't work, expansions are usually big new chunks of games (mostly in strategy games and MMOs) that cost much more than dlc, and in story driven games those are usually called sequels and sold as new games.

Probably not the best thread to ask but couldn't find anywhere better so is anyone else having problems with using DS3/Motionjoy on Steam? Been trying to finish up SR3, so I could start Witcher 1/2 which I just got today, but the game after the intro vids doesn't recognize the controller anymore.

Have been pretty happy with CS:GO. Nice change up to other FPS's I've been playing.
In saying that, man do I suck at the game.

You don't want to use motionjoy, use an xinput wrapper.
There is a thread on GAF that will walk you through the process.
Best thread to ask by the way. All the people who hang out in the normal Steam/PC gaming thread are here while that thread is closed for the sale.

First time playing CS? It does take practice. Join in a Deathmatch server and practice your aim.
If you ever see me on servers I play as RoboitoAM.

I just successfully staved off the desire to buy witcher 2... cause I still haven't beaten the first one and it has been several years since I bought that. I wouldn't want to play the second til I beat the first... and it is not even a priority atm.
Yes. As long as the game is open, you are eligible for getting your allotment of cards.

I just finished FEAR 3 co-op, the game is fun, mindless, I think I could have appreciated more if I had not played the first one. Alma is gone

I'll give my recommendations to try the multiplayer modes in FEAR 3. I know a lot of people hate added-on MP modes and all that, but honestly in this case, the multiplayer modes in FEAR 3 I think are more fun than the campaign.
Contractions and F**king Run are a blast, and even the two Soul Modes I expected to dislike are pretty fun.
He probably gets free booster packs daily, which means free games pretty much daily when you sell them.
I'm level 30 and I probably get at least a booster pack a week and they usually sell for between $1-$3.
It's not just about e-peen, it actually pays off in the long run to have a higher Steam rating. Since August, I've probably gotten over a dozen booster packs.
Just did that. If anybody is interested, I think gmg deal on TW: Medieval II collection is best one so far. At least I don't remember better one.

Any thoughts on Splinter Cell at that price? Really like the first three, less keen on the others. Conviction was alright and Blacklist seems to be better than that, just worried if the price might still be a little steep.

I used to play CS ages ago. Might as well be my first time since I've forgotten everything. Yeah my aim is terrible atm.
Hope to see you around!

Probably the best zombie game, for my tastes. Kind of reminds me of Rebuild but in a third person game.

I'm level 21 and got a booster pack last week - my first in probably two months. According to EnhancedSteam, I have 68 eligible games. What, if any, pattern have you noticed with the games you get booster packs for? I'm not clear on whether a crafted badge creates booster packs for other Steam users for that same game, or if it just spawns booster packs in general.
