boy does that sega bundle suck. only 2 games worth a damn in it imo, sonic generations and the kart racer. already own generations(for any new players, when you beat it google the unleashed levels that were ported to generations, they're good). I won transformed from a giveaway so that saves me a buck too. 
I'm trying this thing, let's see if it works

Thanks for the impressions Phawx
So has anyone played 'Company of Heroes 2 - The Western Front Armies: Oberkommando West'? It's a stand alone game and part of the Humble Bundle, I'm thinking of redeeming it to my account.
Also Quote this post to get the Total War: ROME II - Caesar in Gaul (DLC) from the current Humble Bundle

Humble did that for a while with their 'ReBundle' stuff. It didn't last very long.

I sucked six dicks to get this tag.
I forgot this even existed after seeing the trailer ages ago lol. Definitely going to try it, thanks for the heads up
So, I've just switched from regular HDD to an SSD.
45 minutes spent upgrading firmware (840 EVO, so yeah, it was needed) and cloning my OS partition.
3 hours spent on moving Steam install dir from regular HDD to SSD all the while keeping all my installed games on a HDD, two hours of which were spent on fighting with Steam Guard who just didn't want to generate a valid ssfn file after move.
Finally done, time to pl... oh right, wife wanted me to clean the house. FML. :\

Damn. There are loads of bundles many people missed early on. I'd have thought it wouldn't bomb. Such a shame.

Anyone knows how to open stuff in steam-community in a new window? Right-click doesn't show the option and it's cumbersome to reload community page all the time.
I went to my steam page and copied it there lol

Hey all, trying to set up my first giveaway. I think I messed up by putting the games to my inventory on steam, rather than my email and I'm kinda unsure what to do at this point.I'm reading through the tutorial and I'm a bit lost. I'm about six months old in PC gaming years, and PC in general, actually-- so this is a brand new world for me. I want to give you all free things, please.

Strange, I'm playing FFXIV through the game launcher (not Steam application) and my friend said he could watch it. Looked pretty clear, too.
The more I think about this streaming thing, the less I like it. : /
Valve's installing a streaming client on every machine that can potentially allow someone to remotely view your desktop. What if someone finds a way to hack the client? And if it's possible, it will happen. Bleh. This is one of those rare cases where I feel like a feature might be better suited to the "walled garden" environment of consoles, rather than the more open PC world.

It's a simple fix if it's just in your inventory. Just send the games in your inventory as a gift to your own email (by going to the games in question in your Steam inventory and selecting "Send Gift" and then selecting the "Email my Gift" option that appears on the following screen), and then follow the rest of the guide from there. Don't forget to remove the question mark and everything after it from the URL you get before putting that in the ModBot PM.

go to your inventory and send the games as gifts to YOUR email , then when u receive the email with the game copy the link only up to when there is a "?" and write that in the modbot message for example if the link to the gift is :
store.steampowered.com/account/ackgift/62AE44UBD6F83F67?redeemer=yourmail
you copy this : store.steampowered.com/account/ackgift/62AE44UBD6F83F67
then the message u send to modbot would be something like :
game - https://store.steampowered.com/account/ackgift/62AE44UBD6F83F67

I don't know what's worse : All these <insert mundane profession> Simulator games, or the fact that I actually want them.

So if we're in the steam beta everyone is just automatically streaming no matter what till they change their settings or opt out? Guess someone had to find out what type of porn i watch eventually
Syberia is great, the only problem is that the story isn't 'finished', since it's pretty obviously a trilogy.
Also, if you're going to announce a bundle, announce the price, which is 3 game minimum, about 33 cents per game
Sometimes I just wanna anime

How many of these actually have trading cards? I know that Meridian games are kind of random about which ones receive card updates.
EDIT: And for those of you wondering, it's $9.95 minimum if you select them all.

at least 3. As Turf said (I listen!) it's about $.33 a game.

Yeah... Still. Take another look at it...
I hope he gets banned for that. I'm all for funny shit and all, but watching porn on stream is just the biggest no no in my book.

Reasking.
Is there any way to open links/streams in community in a separate window?
Steam has some stupid stuff going on there.
