Quick question: Witcher necessary before Witcher 2?
No, but you should definitely give it a play. I played it this summer, and it's far and away one of the best rpgs (and games) I've had the pleasure to play.

There's certainly some jank, but it's a wonderful world to explore, and one really solid story.

I must do better.
Dammit looks like I’ll have to go through steam support to find out why they’re not accepting any on my purchases, and with how long they take I’ll probably miss out on most of the sale.

listen to the mad man
Just wanted to give a heads up on a good deal on some adventure games. The Pendulo Adventure Pack is $12.49 and you get Runaway 1-3 and The Next Big Thing. Next Big Thing was already a daily yesterday and I don't see the Runaway games becoming a daily deal so this pack is nice. It ends in a couple of hours.

Runaway 1 and 2 are great, third is okay, and The Next Big Thing is very good too. They've got fun puzzles, great humor, quirky characters, and beautiful graphics.

All this stuff was a daily deal yesterday, they just reconfigured the sales so that the daily deals last 28 hours instead of 24 and when the next set goes up, the previous set can stay on sale for another 4 hours. So yeah, those are daily deal prices, they won't get any cheaper.
 
Uh, so I just gifted a friend of mine Portal 2 earlier, and there's a copy showing in my "Steam inventory."


Is that the one I gifted him just waiting to be accepted, or is that something completely new for me to gift away?

My missing achievement has popped up on the gift pile page now. Nice to see Valve embracing cultural stereotypes by sending the Welshman nothing but coal.

It finally let me buy the Double Fine pack! Excited for Costume Quest as I wanted to get it for a while.

Anyone know how to get the Psychonaut's objective?

Ah, I see. I was wondering why Orcs Must Die was still on sale. I just remember seeing Next Big Thing on sale by itself so I thought this pack was new or just cheaper.

Anyway, just wanted to let people know before it ends. :)

Huh? Why's that? I just started playing through Source and it seems alright so far. The jumping on boxes kind of sucks now that they have physics.

I actually bought Source in the end, I doubt I'll ever play it anyway, I just want it in case, and it comes with HL Source DM, HL comes with nothing.

Hey, Question: If I get the half-life franchise pack, is it possible for me to gift certain games within the pack, or is gifting all or nothing? I Already have HL2, but I'd pick up HL1 and gift HL2 to my friend.

from the OP:

please note you do not get extra
copies of games you have already bought (HL2 and HL2EP1 are exempt from this rule.)

How's the community in Red Orchestra? I guess I should probably say 'population'.

Unrelated to the Christmas sales, the Sonic 4 Episode 1 Steam registry entry has been updated, now the current version is listed as version 2, previously it was listed as version 0.

Don't kill me now, but what's the big deal with Psychonauts...? Why does everyone seem to love it so much? Granted, I've only played the demo, but from that it seemed like a pretty generic cute adventure platformer.
