Off by a few bucks. Mostly miscalculation on sale items.
Did you quote the wrong user?

Jesut Christ thats more than I thought. Although when you do the math, that's only about 8 bucks per game, which is awesome.

My account's worth $466.71 for 50-something games; around what I expected.

Damn.. I just played the demo of Peggle and loved it. I've been avoiding this one for so long because it "looked" generic and lame. I guess that's what I get for having game prejudice lol.
Was this already in a daily deal? I kinda want it now, but feel like I can get it for $5 if I hold out.

Its interesting that the sale on Tales of Valor has pushed COH: Gold onto the best sellers chart, Relic have got to be happy with that.
Despite already having a daily deal, Torchlight is holding strong at #8, it doesn't look as though the previous sale has slowed its sales at all.

What are you talking about? The void hasn't been part of a daily deal yet otherwise i would have got it right away, there's still time but if it doesn't get an extra discount i will get it for 10.

For anyone who is having Jade Empire crash on them when it tries to launch configuration, there's a simple fix that doesn't involve renaming the executables.
Just create a blank file in notepad, save it as SystemInformation.xml, and put it in steamapps\common\jade empire\data.

For $3.75 and bonus content? It's beckoning!
*Jade Empire bought*
Seriously, fucking amazing deals these past few days. I've bought like 10 games and haven't even hit $30 yet. Steam is just a blissful Eden.
I'd really like to bite on the Eidos Bundle deal - Having Arkham Asylum included is worth the $50 alone, plus you get a lot of great Eidos gems. I just don't have the flow to do so right
now, especially with the [poor] decision to buy the ME2 CE.
I still can't believe I've been a steam member for almost 6 years...

Man I cant decide if I should buy the Eidos pack or not, I already played and beat batman on 360, but there some other intriguing games on that list.

Are you using the numbers that are showing in your link? Same thing happened to me, and then I just pasted the string of numbers and thats it. Worked then.
Not too shabby.

Ya, Brain Stew has me worried about it having really bad performance though. If it runs at least acceptable I'll buy it.

Good enough for me, I'll buy it now. Thanks!

Just got through about an hour game with Arthur.
It's like Total War, but more RPG-like.
Hmmm...I guess 20 dollars for it is alright since I wasted 49.99 on Empire: Total War.
There isn't as much micromanagement as the Total War games (which is a blessing because I don't like sitting there waiting for the fucking CPU to move), and the battles seem alright.
:'( To think there are a few days with deals...

It ran fine for me back near when it came out, no real performance problems (solid 30 FPS at least, think it might be locked at that). I had to jack up the mouse sensitivity to max to make it "feel" right personally. It deffinately is a quick dirty port, but its playable, and i would say worth it at that price.

Was going to say, I have it for PC and it runs stellar on my laptop. No real glaring issues for me surprisingly. Very limited graphics tweaks though :/ For $10 it's a definite purchase I'd say.

You own 25 games worth: $225.48 USD - What does this number mean?
I thought I'd have a lot more.

I only opened by Steam account in October.Doomslayer said:
Now when I click on my Control Panel thingy, it says "View all 180 games". Now I know some of those are game editors and SDKs. But I sure got a lot of games fast by buying the THQ complete pack, Eidos collection, Super id pack, PopCap games complete (which it isn't), Telltale complete, Orange Box, etc.
Those 'complete' packs are hard to resist. For less than the cost of a single new HD console game, you get a big pile of games. Yeah, many are old. But there are generally a couple recent games and many very good older games.
But the scary thing is that I now have these games every where I go since I can play them on the laptop.

Wow, Defense Grid is excellent. If it goes back on sale for $2.50 at some point, you'd be stupid not to get it. Somehow I looked at my stats and I've already put almost 7 hours into the game, and I've just been playing a little here and little there. It's the best Tower Defense game I've played, and $2.50 is just a ridiculous price for it. It's 7.50 now, which is still a great price, but if it goes back down and you were on the fence, you should take the plunge.
I guess my question must have gotten pushed off too quickly earlier, but since I just bought the game I'll ask again. I purchased CoH:ToV, but I already owned the retail CoH Gold package. It seems that Steam doesn't recognize that at the moment, and instead just has a placeholder CoH in my list now that I'd have to purchase separately. In CoH, it had a place where I should have been able to enter a CD-Key from Steam or D2D, but as yet I've seen nothing that would give me such a key. Anyone know what I'm supposed to do?

what does it say on your steam profile?
DarthWoo said:
Once you install Tales of Valor run it than it will ask for your username and password for relic online
you can than register your cd key's if you haven't already and the game will automatically unlock the content for you basically if you have cd key's on all 3 games than all content will be unlocked even though you have only the one game on steam.

I bought it. On full blown high settings it does not really look that spectacular so far. For some reason the texture of the main character's jacket looks a little blury. Also the button situation for a controller is a little weird, it shows a colored number button when you have to press something. It throws you a little off if you have a Xbox360 PC controller because the color show on the screen does not match up with the color of the button on the control. I've beaten it on the 360 and sold it so I would have to say it was definitely not worth the $60 I spent on it, but it is definitely worth it for $10.Zaraki_Kenpachi said:
