I like my odds!
Episode Two is the best FPS ever made. I don't know of a greater gift one could receive.
Bad Rats?

Really enjoyed the sales this year.
Highlight for me was playing X3 for the achievement after it sitting there untouched for a couple of years. This forced me to spend 5 minutes working out how to play, followed by a couple of hours on youtube watching tutorials to see what else you can do.
Didn't really buy much, but enjoyed the thrill of crafting for vouchers. Certainly the journey was more fun than the reward.

Well, us mortals aren't prepared for those negative vermin, EP2 a human can withstand.
EDIT: Okay, Bad Rats appears to be a TIM style game, TIM was incredible. What makes Bad Rats suck so hard?

I won DoD Source.
Does anyone in the universe not own that on Steam?

May I be the first, to welcome you to our universe on the behalf of mankind.
Runs at solid 60 and pad support is perfect. Don't know what else I could bring up about it.
Oh, how about that awesome synth interspersed during levels.
Hell, there are people who don't even own HL2 on steam.
Huh. You're right. Just downloaded the demo and played some, and it is pretty sweet. Damnit, I don't need more games.

Thank you, sir!
Probably not but you can still get coal for the drawing.So does anyone know if you still get non-Valve prizes for getting the achievements? Was planning to go after a few final ones tomorrow, but if it's only Valve-games & coupons... well, I already have all of those, so I could save myself some time.

Hey guys, I'm trying to use the SMB trainer, and it doesn't seem to be able to check the boxes
yup.
Wait, do we know this for sure?

Are trying to check them off before you start playing the game? You can only check the boxes once the game is running...I just had them in side-by-side windows for easy access.

You need to start it. Then with it the game. Then tab out of the game once you are in a level and check the boxes (they don't seem clickable but they are). Worked for me. No way in hell I could have managed to complete the achievement otherwise. Got a coal :/
I think I'm just gonna skip on it until next sale, even though I thought the demo was pretty fun and stuff.

What was the best thing you guys got? I got a 50% Ubi that I'll be using on Anno 2070
Dota 2.
I have half off PayDay too which is probably the only coupon I'll use.
If anyone has a nice Witcher 2 voucher they want to give away, I'm willing to take it from you.
I could go on forever about it, it's hard to be concise while really explaining it. Also, as I don't know anything about game design, it's difficult to make any really objective statements about it. But essentially I think it all comes down to the pacing and the sense of having been on a journey with convincing characters.
HL2 and EP1 are both very good (EP1 less so), and they are vital to building that relationship with Alyx to make EP2 as effective as it was. I like the sense of camaraderie the game has, for the most part that's with Alyx, but the section with the Vorts is amazing for that same reason. HL2 puts you in these shitty places for extended periods, and because of that, when you do see your 'friends' it holds more weight, EP2 was the culmination of that feeling. They manage to make it feel like co-op with a character you know and care about, for me nothing else has done that. (Ico and PoP'08 both do something similar, and Ico is actually my favorite game, but it's a very different feeling in both cases).
When I say it's the best FPS, I really mean it's the best game that people label a FPS. In terms of the combat mechanically it's no where near the best of course (I'd give that to Crysis), it's really what the game does as an adventure game that makes it stand out as the best of it's peers to me.
I played it in a single setting, it's the right length, it's paced perfectly, it has that wonderful pay off with the portal at the end, then just after that huge emotional crash, I thought it was amazing.

33% off space marine and 33% off skyrim. :/
Unless someone here is an employee from Valve, we don't know.
But if history is any indication, probably.
Nobody knows for sure, but it's most likely going to be a recap day.

Run the trainer, start the game, press 3,4 and 6 with numlock on.

Only 25%, but you can have it if you want
God, I hope so. I missed Batmang the first time.
On a side note, did I miss it, or did Doom not get a deeper discount throughout the sale? I kind of wanted to replay D3 with some mods and am too lazy to install my disks.

It may be crafting is a bad option given it seems valve coupons are what everybody is getting today
I crafted some coal and got Portal 2
Portal 2 still have trade value, you should be able to trade for something good in the trading thread.
Sure man thanks! At work, I won't be home til 3am EST but if you'd send me an invite I'll accept when I get home. Same name as here.
