Big prizes coming up for you then if Frozen Synapse and SpaceChem have daily objectives, I know I'm not the only one you convinced to buy those games.

You get them fairly early on (level 2/3). For the achievement to unlock you can only have the arrow traps, weapons and spells in your inventory. If there's any other trap in there, you won't get it.
Thinking about grabbing dungeons of dredmor...how easy is the cheeve

Yes, you have to use the arrow walls. You get them after beating that level. At least, I did.
Took me about 15 minutes on the first dungeon. Pretty quick.

Reposting this for anyone wanting to do Psychonauts achievement in about 2 minutes and don't want to level up to 10 first.

The WARNER BROS. complete pack is GONE.
Too many people bought and Warner smelled a chance to earn more money with individual titles?

5 minutes for me.

I certainly wouldnt complain!
I still see it in my inventory, are you referring to the 25% one? I hope they'll replace with something else if they really pull it off. OR ELSE.
EDIT: then again I'm seeing a gift I already gave away so I guess the inventory is refreshing pretty slowly. FUUUUUU-
EDIT2: forgive my dumbness, it's pretty late where I live. For some reason I thought you were talking about the coupon. LOL.

The games are all there with the same discounts they had. Most being 33% off.
I am definitely planning on converting as many as I can. I imagine I won't end up with a multiple of 7 though, so I'll probably have a few left over.
Yah, long time as in 10-15 minutes for me (which seemed like 3-4 hours, things shouldn't take that long to install...). But 3-4 hours, something is probably wrong.

Has anyone managed to get 7 pieces of coal yet, and if so. Did you trade it for a prize? I would be pretty shitty if the coal only got you a stupid valve coupon or something. I think 7 pieces of coal should get you a Golden coupon.
A few people have posted they converted 7 to a gift and got a shitty coupon.

But you can't BUY, the Complete Pack, if you click on the banner you will be redirect to the Steam storefront page!
I've gotta 3 coupons... the most useless of all.
Three 10% Valve game coupons?
dave is ok
aztek is ok
I got possibly the worst coupon ever. 10% off Meridian 4.

Haha, to give to a friend you mean? A friend who hasn't played them? Haha...
You...you have played the Half Life games....right?

Logically speaking the correct choice is to convert your coal, as seven of each guarantees that you get something whether you like it or not. However, keeping them increases the reward as well as the risk, so if you're the gambling type it makes more sense to keep 'em.
50% Fallout 3, 33% Valve, and 25% Deepsilver.... I'm boned.

Wife got the achievement and she had a bunch of other stuff equipped. I don't think it matters as long as you only use the crossbow and arrow wall but you probably have to at least have the arrow wall unlocked.
The first time I did it with only my crossbow and didn't get the achievement. Since it was my first time playing the game, the arrow wall unlocked after I completed the level. I did the level again only equipping and using the arrow wall and crossbow and was able to get the achievement.

Man, that's lame. Guess I'll just save up most of my coal then.
has anyone played fable - TLC? how does saving work?
at the beginning, i played like 10 min then made a decision i didn't like so i reverted to a save and it started over! i read the save box closer and it said it only saves renown, experience, etc but does not save quest progress. i've since played another hour but i'm scared to save and quit because it does not save "quest progress".

How's the PC port for Psychonauts? Been a game I've always been meaning to try, but I bought Strangers Wrath during the fall sale and that runs like dog shit.
Yes.
Those few people who don't have Half-Life 2 or other Valve games can probably trade for them in the trading/gifting thread.

It doesn't control well using keyboard and mouse, but it looks nice in high widescreen resolutions
How are you doing it at all? This game is impossibly hard and it's agitating me, I can't believe Valve is making us play these games. Isn't buying them enough?

Hmmmm, what about controller support? I can imagine it being a pain with KBM.
No, it's gone. That adds up to way more than $75.

Risen?
They don't force you to; it's just if you want a chance of getting a coupon/coal/game in exchange for unlocking cheevos.
I seem to recall using a 360 controller when I played it. Could be wrong, though. 5 seconds of internet search leads me to think I'm correct.
Sonic is indeed Steamworks.

I was actually kind of surprised by the WB complete pack. It was a fantastic deal for anyone that didn't already own a majority of those games.
Pick the lowest difficulty setting and these skills:
Unarmed, vampirism, viking, Perceptive, heavy armor, alchemy and another one.
You should be able to plow through the first floor without doing anything since you even regen due to the vampire stuff.

Confirmed. I purchased my copy of Sonic Generations from Amazon and activated on Steam back at launch.

Oh that's not bad. I'm torn. I want Sonic but I have a feeling that it could end up cheaper during the steam sale if not the same. Tough choice.

Either way it's worth it. Sonic Generations is easily the best Sonic game since Sonic Adventure (I haven't played Sonic Colors yet) and Sega did a tremendous job with the PC version.

Welp, my three achievements today (Spiral Knights, Psychonauts, and Dungeons of Dredmor) sure gave out some lame gifts.
- A piece of coal (Best gift of the three)
- 50% off AI War: Fleet Command
- 50% off A.R.E.S. Extinction Agenda (Which I already own)
