Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
These Pay To Unlock DLCs really jack with the natural character progression in a single player game. Like Sleeping Dogs, I don't think there is a way to disable them either.
It does a really bad job of this. I don't even think theres a "see what the buttons do" page. but yes Dr Dogg covered the controls. The color of your exhaust I believe will show you what drift level you are. When this changes color, the better the boost you will get.
Reallllly really fun game though. Great PC port.
I would assume that buying it and adding it to your inventory (instead of adding it to your account) would also work.

i think you may have to give up on the dream man
Yeah, they really need to match stuff up better to where it isn't as obvious that some deals are being sent to die against more popular games.

Hoping I'll actually have money by the time the next sale comes around. So many games I wanted that I couldn't acquire.. :c
Sounds like Assassin's Creed 4 on PC will be on sale at Amazon tomorrow for 30 dollars. I hope it also includes the Steam version.

To be fair, EU IV was on sale for this price all over the place last week, plus Paradox games are known for being buggy at release and for being at sale for cheap a year later in packs with a few dozen DLC's.
Other than the MP being basically broken, EU IV is a surprisingly stable game.
That would be great if I didn't have almost the exact same specs as Sajjaja =P
I'll wait it out and see if this last flash sale brings something interesting.

God dammit...Is there a way to make a modbot raffle with a game in one's steam inventory? I see no way to view the activation key for it. Either there's no way to, or I'm a dummy and can't see where an option like that would be.

You can gift the game to your own email address then put the redemption URL (that is sent to your email) into Modbot

One more vote for Shadow Warrior. Everyone and their mother should buy, its awesome game!
Also, no slow motion or pause moves makes combat so satisfying. Its ultra fast, precise and responsive.
My gif, because why the hell not.
Yep I was interested since Giant Bomb quick look and at price 6.24 euros it's no brainer. Really can't wait to play.
Unfortunately no. Everyone except Valve accounts, as far as I know, is missing games that have been pulled from Steam and have no hope of ever returning. That's why I said every available game.
Is there a list of games that were on Steam at some stage and then pulled? I'll love to see if I have any.

Instead of buying games this sale, I'll be making a donation to ES instead - your hard work is much appreciated!
Thanks, have a few on there (Star Wars Galaxies, ToCA Race Driver 3, Indigo Prophecy, Football Manager 2010, DiRT and a few of the ones that got upgraded editions).
Is Brutal Legend worth 2 quid?
Of the dozen or so games I bought during the sale, Cook, Serve, Delicious! will probably end up being my favourite. Nearly perfect implementation of an idea that isn't really that common in games. Reminds me quite a bit of Papers, Please (although obviously that game uses even less explored idea). I particularly like the gameplay during rush hour when I end up hitting all the wrong keys and screw up just about everything but the day goes on and you just have to keep going no matter what.
Easily top10 of the year material for me, although it's only the Steam release that came in 2013. Also without the Steam release I would have never found this game so there's that.

Thanks, WhiskeyDiver!

I sucked six dicks to get this tag.
Wasn't there a guy who lost his hearing playing that game?
Don't play with a headset at high volumes or you get tinnitus. That's basically with any game though.
Because the greatest modern 2D fighter of our time hasn't shown any signs of ever being in a flash sale. KOF
Well, i´m done for now. This is what i bought:
- Shadow Warrior
- Dishonored price error edition
- Max Payne 3
- Castlevania
- Skyrim Legendary edition
With all this i'll busy untill next year sales (If not, DOTA 2 and CS: GO will fill the space between).
Will see what´s on sale on christmas tho.

A friend and I were just playing it tonight. Buying it off GMG when it was on sale nets you a 2nd giftable copy.
The game is....rough to say the least. It just has so many basic design flaws, everything from lacking the ability to put a password on a listen server (without resorting to ini editing), there's no chat in the lobby system, we couldn't figure out how to make the game save our class choices.
Regarding gameplay it's just brutal. Granted we were only playing 2 player, the enemies will down you in 1 or 2 shots which most of the time results in a "blink and you're dead" situation. The game seems to be balanced around the idea of leaning around corners, but the lean itself is so useless, you barely move at all, and your gun disappears when you are close to a wall so it's just all around clumsy and awkward to work with. The enemy A.I. is a cross between unbelievably dumb to omnipotent at times, as in if they even so much as catch a glimpse of your torso you will be laser beam dead damn near instantly.
We got a good laugh out of the hour or two of attempts we made at it but we made next to no progress at all. If you were going to buy it buy low, and really, really expect it to be a badly designed game going in.

I wouldn't be surprised, I have terrible luck so stuff like that always happens. I just couldn't wait any longer. After counting up my funds, and selling a few cards I found out I had more then enough to buy it as it was.
