STEAM | December 2014 - Read OP for winter sale questions

Plus that it's basically old L4D with new models localized for a different market.

Yep, it's based on L4D2. Same levels too, though they seems to have some slight changes.

I've seen some character customization (new costumes and stuff like that) in a video though. Kinda hope L4D3 will have that too.

Hrrrm. What'd I miss, after the market meltdown? There's like 800 posts that I skipped, cause, well... ain't nobody got time for dat.



There we go... much better.

On that we agree, I'd buy Killer Instinct on PC day one full price without hesitation. Hell I'd probably buy whatever super deluxe full of meaningless bonuses version they could come up with.

gamersgate has 2K bundles as special for today, which seem to me unreasonably expensive, but then it's 2K sale we are all starving for, no? (><)

L4D3? Isn't that supposed to come out, y'know, after Episode 3/HL3?

For you.
I still have Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris in my account despite the GamersGate refund. Has anyone had theirs removed yet?

It will take a while before that happens. Gamersgate needs to send the key list to the publishers, then the publishers need to request the revoking of the keys to Valve, which can take a bit. You will probably have a whole week or two before it gets removed.

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.
Lots of stuff! Free for all, first come first served.

Game 108 of the year done: The Testament of Sherlock Holmes

Hmm, this is pretty much a casual HOPA game (a bit more advanced, with additional logic puzzles akin to Artifex Mundi games, but still, casual to the max) with some definitely non-casual production values (not on par with 500+ people Ubiproduction, but getting there).
I mean, character models other than the main pair were atrocious (especially the kids reading the story), but the background artwork is great (even if it's just scans of real-life objects for the most part). Nice music and some decent VA as well.
Pity the whole game wasn't made in the visual style of the credits - sure as hell would enjoy it better this way...
Oh well, back to Deadalic games I guess.
 
It took almost a month to remove the Warlock 2 keys, I'd expect it may take them a while to do.

It will take a while before that happens. Gamersgate needs to send the key list to the publishers, then the publishers need to request the revoking of the keys to Valve, which can take a bit. You will probably have a whole week or two before it gets removed.

Dang. I guess at least it gives me time to play it before it's removed.


Heck, I haven't even had my money refunded. I must be in the clear!

I'm shaking my fist at you furiously.

At many offices, a lot of image links get blocked, so I'm not even sure what game you're talking about :p
 
Why can't I install Super Trench Attack?

Its in my account as "complimentary", but it does'nt install.

I even tried steam://install/311870 in browser.

It just briefly flashes "scanning for updates" for a split second and then nothing happens.

Asset quality for FF XIII-2 is all over the place. Some stuff like character textures scrub up reasonably well but some of the skybox textures... *bluuuurrrgghhh*. Doesn't help that you get them smack bang in your face for the 'Serah staring into the sky lost in thought flashback' sequences where videos play in the sky.

Spellforce complete on GMG for $5 ($4 with voucher) is pretty tempting, if for no other reason than I still have a boxed copy on my shelf that I never played.
Yes my problem with buying cheap games and never playing them started long before Steam.

It's the same for FF13 though really.

I had fun playing the game of "take screenshots which are least affected by low-qulity assets". This is one of my favourites in that regard:

Looks like a game full of environmental clutter, polygonal detail and high-res environment textures in that. All of which it is decidedly not.
