Better late than never. Origin is a fickle bastard when added as a Steam shortcut. Most of the time it wont do anything unless you have the Origin client closed before launching the game. Best thing to do it make sure it's not set to start with Windows and like Stallion said make sure the 'close client upon exit' is checked too. Some games even panic when you have too many overlays running as well.

I get that.
But their recent hardware-solutions still feel like they are stuck in the R&D Department.
I mean first the Steam machines that were supposed to come out last year IIRC. Then the controller.
It just seems they do not have a real business plan about these.
Certainly hope so. Wonder how they will distribute them.
I am okay with "Everyone who has been on Steam for 10 years or longer will get one for free"
I'm not sure why the default control scheme is the opposite of minesweeper. First thing I did was change it around, not gonna unlearn a decade+ of minesweeper habits
Ah, well there you go.

Beta testers may get them for free but that's about it. I don't see Valve giving away thousands of them.

Will we finally hear about the media features or are they bust?
If I could watch Lost River on Steam I'd be sooo happy.

I am going to make it through this year if it kills me
Can we give people copies of The Host like Bad Rats?
Also, I had no problems with There Came an Echo. Really cool game.
Talking of fickle bastards, Amazon are a twisted company. My headphones exploded the other day due to my fat head so was looking to grab a new pair. Amazon.de had the ones I was after cheaper than .co.uk but when I went to checkout and select free delivery I get my hands slapped and Nein! Das ist verboten! shouted at me and then the cost with shipping is more than .co.uk. So fine I ordered them for .co.uk for £10ish extra and when I get my tracking information today it say they dispatched from Rheinberg, in bloody Germany.
Well now that venting is out the way and RE Rev 2 unlocked overnight I might be able to knock the first chapter out this morning.
tee hee

All the talk of There Came an Echo keeps making me think everyone's playing Here and There Along the Echo. I want KR0 act 4 already ;-;
Good, good RE Rev 2 starts off in cheesy fashion. The main anti-zombie/ganado/majini/whatevers organisation Claire Redfield works for is called Terra Save. It kicks off with an advert for them with their corporate slogan being
. I groaned and chuckled at the same time also Morria is a bit... edgy.
'Terra Save because Terra doesn't have to end with an ist'

Online co-op was always advertised as coming later, but no local co-op is the latest controversy, yes. The other versions have it, PC doesn't for whatever reason.
Reportedly the lack of offline co-op support wasn't mentioned on the store page until the last minute, which is rather scummy. I've not read anything about the PC version being a last-gen port.
Block Legend DX is... blocky and rad as far as roguelikes go. It's not as hysterical as 10000000 and plays very differently, but it's still hard as nails. It probably gets better when you unlock stronger characters. I also like snippets of how bosses destroyed you, uploaded couple of screenshots showing that yesterday.
for example
for example
If you want fruity Batman someone should make a 60's Adam West Batman but play out like Dance, Dance Revolution. Bat Dancing All Night Long!!!

My guess it a sequel multi plat release on summer 2015.

Humble Bundle added Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light. I caved and beat the average @ $7.65.

I still read your posts~
Yeah, but their last known names were retained, so searching for, say, Half-Life will still result in, uh, results.
why would they do that? I don't see any benefits of that for them too

why is there a fucking cross on the upper left thing. Don't tell me that's a dpad.
Also, if you were to use the left analogue stick and the four traditional buttons, it just might be the most uncomfortable setup I've ever seen.
what happened valve
It probably has everything to do with the slip-up a few weeks ago that resulted in newly-published apps accidentally having free-on-demand subs by default, which allowed SteamDB's bot to get the actual names. Disabling the ability for all sub names to be crawled is a bit heavy-handed but it does completely prevent sub-related leaks from happening.
