Didn't take 24hrs and I got my keys.

Alien Isolation is btw not available anymore despite its picture still being on the Never Settle page.

Yeah, activated mine too

That picture is for gold keys, we only got the lame silver keys, luckily I got Alien already with my last AMD key ;)

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.
Ever hate how those inventory tabs stick around when they're empty? Me too.

Got a strange problem- Youtube videos work on the Steam store pages from the client.
But when I try to watch Youtube videos from the in game browser or on my Activity feed, they play but I get a black screen.
Win 7 64 bit- just updated Flash Player, but when I follow Steam's instructions to install "other versions" of Flash Player, the options are different?

I used to pirate everything. Then I got a Steam account and now I buy everything :p. Steam is the best anti-piracy in the market.

Recently converted a friend as well. Guy had like 5 Steam games on his account and mostly pirated games. Then I gifted him a bunch of games. Many bundle extras, Isaac Rebirth, etc. Showed him the various bundle sites and stores with good deals. The guy built a kickass PC since then and bought many games on the Autumn sale, and he is now sitting at 50 games :D

Same here. I used to pirate everything for many years. Then... 7-ish years ago I started buying lots of stuff but pirating it first to try it out, see how it performs, see if I liked it, etcetera...

... Nowadays I just buy everything but don't actually try it at all, instead I idle it for cards and forget to actually play videogames.

... SteamGAF why you do dis to me :/

Yeah, that's... The least offensive female fighting character I've seen in years. She looks cute, kawaii and honestly rather badass.

Nowadays people always make a fuzz about everything nowadays.

I'd love her giving me a fuzzy hug
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Not sure if that HOMM3 update is really that big of an improvement over the GOG version aside from the MP. Neato for tablets though.

Alone in the Dark has an exclusive pre-purchase achievement.

“Old One” Achievement: This exclusive achievement is available only to pre-order customers and marks you as one of the first players to enter the game.


You know this game will be bad.

Yeah, I noted that when the store page went up. AoE2 HD had one, too.

See, and now I stopped playing Batman: Arkham Asylum (a week ago), and have instead started up Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen. I keep changing games, and keep forgetting the the plot and how far I have come in them.

It actually is. He introduced me to B/S/T, and I've been addicted to Dmix's service ever since.

Ofcourse it's also Turfster's fault for always pointing out when stuff is on sale so I, you know, buy it and forget to play it. Speaking of, I should play Lichdom... Dmix gave me a cheapo price for it <3

As Well as ALLTYNEX Second. The games all tie in to one another.

Apparently the switch hasn't been flipped just yet as I'm not getting any hits when searching the market.

Edit: Oh, wait, you're referring to the keys, not the items. Duh!
Damn, you gave me hope for a second there :(

His power is real.
 
Okay, now my new PC is up and running and according to BIOS everything seems to be aww right! Thing is that my USB stick won't stick together, which means that I can't install Windows until I get another one from somewhere! Graah!
 
finally finished ozzamaer in dragon age origins. HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYY SHIT that took forever. i couldn't possibly care less about the whole dwarf's politics and shit. i sided with Harrowmont but i got so bitter and bored in ozzamar that i changed sides last second just to be a douche. and where the hell is the golem companion?! i still don't have that huge lug and i got no clue where to find him. ahem, but besides that I'm still enjoying the game, I'm 29 hours in, really time consuming game. hopefully by the time I'm done amazon has their usual origins ultimate edition + dragon age 2 bundel for $10.

That's by far the worst part of the game.
Too bad you missed out on the subplot with the golem companion there.

I have to say it.

Thank you for all the modders and people who allow us to customize our games.
I'm in love with my modded Skyrim :)

I have to concur. A modded Skyrim is AMAZING! Everyone with a PC capable of handling it and Skyrim should consider modding the game.

Speaking of modding, have any mods been made for FF13?
