Apart from setting open door policy on the immigration office as already mentioned, you should set the clinics and hospitals to the maternity thing (don't know the exact name but it gives more babies).

SOLUTION: Get a red-white-red combo in the game, change game colors to get the achievement.
This didn't work for me when I changed the game colours to only white and red - had to do it using the default colours.
Ok I'll amend it.
Just got around to trying Orcs Must Die after picking it up yesterday.
It runs horribly on my 5870, much worse than it should be. Averaging about 25fps, getting as low as 15. Seems to get worse the closer I get to the pink glowy forcefields the orcs emerge from.
I also met the requirements for the Steam achievement, but it did not unlock.

When I played it on X Box, it was very buggy. I remember falling through the ground a few times, and had several random lock ups. It's the buggiest Lego game I've played. When it worked, it was fun, but I am not very confident that the PC version would have less issues than the console one.

So I noticed the WB pack seems to be missing now, with all links to it leading to the front page. Also the prices are missing from my wishlist.

Its up for me on the store page, odd. I did notice that every price in my wishlist is gone now as well.
Yeah but can you buy the pack? That just shows their catalog.

So I bought the Cthulu Saves the World double pack earlier and gifted it to someone and I noticed that it's still in my inventory. Is that normal or does that mean the gifting didn't go through and I should do it again or what?

My problems with Costume Quest. Right at the start of the game. No forced options anywhere :S

It's possible that the recipient hasn't accepted the gift yet, but it's likely that you're experiencing the same bug as a few of us (myself included). Steam is moving a bit slow right now and it takes awhile for some gifted games to disappear from your inventory. They can't be traded or gifted, though, you'll get a message saying the gift is used or invalid. This happened to me yesterday, but they're gone now.

Not sure about your performance issues (it runs great on my laptop), but for the achievement you need to not only just use weapons/spells and arrow wall traps, but also only have those equipped.

I wonder if they took the bundle down because it mistakenly had the War In the North logo listed on the banner? If that's the reason they'll probably relist it with an updated banner.

I have a 50% off any Valve game coupon if anyone wants it. Everyone probably got this garbage but I'm just throwing it out there. Willing to trade it for something.

Yeah. It got discounted pretty heavily at retail recently.
Which banner? The one I saw had Kid from Bastion with a scrap musket.
Edit: nevermind, the one you're talking about is still up.

Yeah I meant that one, was dazed and confused. In that case I have no idea, WB are pretty hot and cold with their behaviour on Steam.

I believe it's like the -ville games, where you get a small amount of some currency (which you need to progress in any meaningful way) every day, and if you want to progress faster you'll have to pay real money for it.

Just did the Dungeons of Dreadmor achievement and got Bad Rats: the Rat's Revenge xD
I feel my views would be biased and not fair, I leave it onto other gaffers to post there opinion on currents deals. A general rule I take if it's 75% or less you might as well take the ride and see how it goes.
I will do something like the cream of the crop of the cheapest games on steam at the end of the sale.
Okay. Twas just a suggestion cause the recommendations here go by pretty quick with how fast the thread moves sometimes.

You never have to spend money because Gas Energy refills at a rate of 100/day, but because the maximum amount of Gas you can carry is 100 and Energy is used for every single thing you do to progress your character it's pretty hard to get away with never buying any Crystal Energy for real monies or Crowns. 100 Energy is only enough to do 10 dungeons, and crafting anything worthwhile costs several hundred Energy. With the exchange rate for Crowns to Energy being quite lopsided, it would take quite a while to earn enough Crowns to buy a meaningful amount of Crystal.

Picked up Tropico 4 and Duke Nukem (come on, it's $5.00!)
That just leaves Saints Row 3, Driver: San Fransisco, Deus Ex and LA Noire left on my wish list.

it's been like 3-4 hours. should i just end it? heh.
I see! Thank you for the explanation. I will definitely play this and Psychonauts again. Yeah I figured that everything required energy and you need a ridiculous amount of crowns to buy 100. It was like 6000+ crowns for 100 energy. Even activating the elevators to dungeon require some energy haha.

Psychonauts Acheevs are both acheeved. Have not checked my inventory yet. Going in for more acheevs. I like to see big numbers.

Opened the thread to rant about the same thing. It just updated a couple times and now it won't load any savegame. What the hell D:
Have you tried starting a new game?

Is 75% the biggest discount? I bought Costume Quest, then noticed Psychonauts for $2.50 (75% off).
gabenddsign.gif, I know, but I don't see a timer on Psychonauts.

I'm getting 100-175 on my 5850, so something is definitely wrong there.
Are you required to use the arrow traps? I finished it only using the bow, maybe that's why.
Nice. Thanks!
Not sure but I placed them and got the achievement, so it's worth a try.
When do you get them? I've only finished the first level.
Psychonauts is a daily, so it won't be going any lower. It was 50% off yesterday.
