It was the first game that I bought when I got my Xbox 360. I no longer have it, but now I get to play Bioshock again in glorious 1080p :-D
Last night before I went out I had £5.07 in wallet fund and spent £0.67 on cards to craft and got 2 Warframe thingies which I popped on the market. When I checked this morning I've now got £10.43 in wallet funds. Feels good.
Plus it's got really modest system requirements. Downsamples brilliantly whilst still maintaining a decent frame rate.
GFWL aside is incredibly overlooked.

Hacking doors is just following the paths to match circuits up in the order of which the bubble numbers are ordered.
Hacking comps is a bit more annoying, you basically look for whichever sequences of numbers aren't moving (that match the two sets of numbers you can manipulate), you overlay your numbers on the grid, and then hit enter/A. However, the numbers will move eventually, so there is that to be concerned with.
There are one or two items which can lower the internal level of the hack (some inlay for your suit), and if nothing else, for critical stuff, you can EMP it to buypass it, I think.
If there's one game you shouldn't buy on the sale, it's Bulletstorm.
Seriously, this cannot be repeated enough: The Game requires GFWL to be online at all time, even for single player content. GFWL is going away in half a year. Epic cares fuck all for PCs. THE GAME WILL BE UNPLAYABLE IN HALF A YEAR

I finally scored rare item... and its price was already bellow 2€
So you really was lucky with those Warframe thingies.
I tried to reason with them, didn't work
Does look good and I'm interested. Dat GFWL tho...
Interesting, I'll add it to The List and think about grabbing it this evening.

I haven't put that into the rules so you should be able to.
I don't personally mind.
Glad you guys like it but don't give me too much credit. I got it for free. I think I have a couple more keys (not as exciting) laying around so I'll have a look.

Lame question maybe but is it better to keep a snow globe and sell it on the last day or just sell it straight away?
Is there absolutely 0 way of bypassing the GFWL DRM?
Maybe in the "grey" area of the internet.
I may end up just passing. The Hacking seems overly complicated and i remember being frustrated on the 360 version and selling it off.
I figured on PC there would be a mod or cheat engine or something that could either just let me bypass that nonsense or maybe give me unlimited time. I am old and my hand/eye coordination is in the pooper.
Yeah I've got a rare PoE holly thing and a uncommon DOTA 2 axe which are both peanuts in their 1,000s.

I just didn't want to enter and offend you. But with your blessing, I shall! I look forward to playing this game on the off chance my raffle is pulled! I'll think about something to give away here, I like this bot.
From Aspyr's blog: "All BioShock Infinite Mac DLC purchased for the Steam version will also support Steam Play like the base game."
(http://blog.gameagent.com/aspyr-mac-faqs-bioshock-infinite/)
But yeah, still can't confirm myself.

- Epic said they are discussing what to do about it.
- In case they choose to do nothing you can crack it and play it that way. Maybe the MP modes (if the game had any, can't quite remember) will be unplayable but I sincerely doubt you would be able to find online players anyway!
I agree it's important to let people know about it before they purchase it though.

GFWL is on it's death bed, though. Don't forget that.
Thanks for answering his post.
Don't think removal of GFWL from Bulletstorm has been discussed yet, to my knowledge.

One could argue that because of that everyone should buy and instantly play the game. Last chance.
Yeah but that's another reason to be wary in case they don't patch it out. Game does look like a blast though.
Or this.

Burial at Sea takes place after [and refers heavily to the events of] Infinite, so the narrative wouldn't make a whole lot of sense.
It sounds somewhat similar to an issue I was having with some programs, where googleupdater (for chrome) would steal the focus from the fullscreen application. Never figured out how to stop the damn thing to do that, other than disabling the updater entirely.

Pointing at the shitty skybox I see.For those on the fence about Bulletstorm, consider this:
Game is damn good looking. And it plays like like a dream.
ahh I see, thanks, I guess I'll beat the main game first
As someone who never played Bioshock 1 or 2 but played Infinite i am interested in knowing if Burial at Sea is like Bioshock 1 and 2 in the sense that it has a lot of cheap scares. You know, jump scares. That stuff put me off the first 2 games and it's one of the reasons i have been holding back on playing Burial.
Day 8 on Papers, Please and I'm barely breaking even (in fact on day 7 I had to go without heat!), I have a bad feeling about this guys I also let someone in I knew I shouldn't have, I couldn't say no in this particular situation even if its just a computer person >_<
I absolutely love how every new day / level it gives you something new

Whoops, yes.
Dumb question, contact them now or when it goes on sale for $4.99? I'm not sure if the pricing is "official" anywhere to reference it.
And then you can petition Valve for a refund because the game will be dead. Even then, there are cracked versions out there and you can use since you have the license to use the game. I see no downside.
The game is great, Epic said they were looking to get past the GFWL service as well.
Also, straight from the horses mouth:
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
I was in a family outing the whole day. Thank Gaben for Steam mobile. Manage to vote.
With that said I kinda missed out Risk of Rain being the community choice (I really don't want to transact via mobile), but I guess it'll eventually come out as a daily.
By the way, I'm still looking for someone to help me buying MGR through nuuvem. I hope someone could help me.

Any game pub/dev which don't remove GFWL when it shuts down next year will get a lot of trouble with the consumer bureau called Consumer Council. If there is a product which releases in Norway or have been released and something changes so it does not work properly the Consumer Council can ban the company behind the problem, sue them and make sure every consumer get's back their money.
If the Xbone restrictions never were removed the Xbone would be banned in Norway.

It will, don't do it.
If you can find official pricing do it now, otherwise wait.
They are really good about PMing price drops that happen a few days and even up to a week after purchasing.
Can you click "Play" on a Steam game but then you find it hard, close the game and in less than 10 minutes you are back only to find that sweet feel of reward based on your skill and determination not to mention that, this time you are paying more attention to something that, in fact was not that hard but because so many recent games hold your hand you loose the perception of such basic rules when fighting enemies?

Ok, just got FF8 and Bulletstorm. Hoping for Lego Marvel to be reduced heavily. also looking for the Kingsquest pack, the prototype games, and the borderlands 2 psycho/mechromancer dlc packs. capped myself at 50$ this time, spent way way too much over the summer sale. Also realized a shitton more of my games have cards, so am idling to create more revenue.

DAMMIT, I need to play this game more. I stopped right as I got to that super dark cave with the giant skeletons. I was like "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE"
Awesome, appreciate the heads up.

Even if it does work (which I'll probably end up testing shortly), you're still paying 15 bucks for the next one, unless you're willing to wait for the next steam sale, or another price glitch/discount elsewhere.

Ah, a new morning. Time to grab EYE for a bu- WHAAAAAAA *slidewhistle*
CAG just posted this on twitter:
It really is. I just wish the other Adult Swim produced games were oat 75% as well.
It is quite easy to see which GFWL will not be patched, games from defunct/"shift to mobile" are most likely not patched. Most games also work in offline modes and most games have currently - do not be naive - have a completely barren and empty multiplayer mode.
Bulletstorm is one of the most problematic games, together with Dirt 3 (which will be patched) and Dark Souls (most likely). Ace Combat also is unknown.
Games from Bizarre, Disney subsidiaries, MS games will probably be lost.
