Those two and Metro: Last Light (and to a lesser extent Blood Dragon) made this a great year for FPS. Shadow Warrior is a 90s shooter remade correctly, it looks stunning, the humor mostly hits for me and the Katana combat is so much fun.
You don't wanna know.
Happened to me at least a few times but that was a long time ago. I think it was when I went to look at my profile. Haven't encountered that problem for a while now.

Finished Burial At Sea. Great ride, especially for 5, and especially considering the other one's still coming and I already own it now, too.
On to Metro: Last Light. So far, I'm enjoying it more than the original, even though my machine seems to have trouble running it with Vsync on. I'll take a smooth framerate over tearing, though.

Anyway to calculate how much trade-in you get with that? I could dump some of my PS3 library to get the PC version of them if the deal is good.
Just installed System Shock 2 and I'm looking at this modding guide. Now, what mods do I really need? I'm feeling lazy.

Can I get an invite to the GAF Steam group? I heard there was one a while ago, but didn't know it was invite only.
On an unrelated subject, I took a look at the page for GTA IV just to see what's up with it (I already own it on 360 and don't care for it very much), and I saw all these warnings for 3rd party DRM.
Sounds like a nightmare to me.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
It is.

Grab all the ones on that page. You are about to embark on one of the five best games ever made and the time is well spent.
I spent more time modding the game than playing it. =/ sorry GAF.

i wouldn't install any mods for system shock 2, just play it as vanilla as possible
Thanks for English Country Tune!
As a rule, I would ignore anything that modifies gameplay your first time through (and it seems that guide does so as well). SHTUP is a safe one. Perhaps a couple of other texture mods as well, though I wouldn't overdo it in that respect. Vurt's stuff is also pretty good.
But if you want to do the bare minimum, just go with SHTUP and then play the game as-is.

All right, sweet, thanks. Definitely bought then, because my backlog isn't big enough already.
In all honestly, I'm doing pretty well at working my way through it. It's fun, too, seeing so many different games. I probably played more new games in 2013 than I did in the last six years of gaming combined.

Personally I'd ignore the whole guide. Set the HUD to scale up from the ini in the root directory and you're set as far as the Steam release goes. Then again, I'm particularly tolerant towards older assets in games, but I think it holds up for what it is. The texture packs are good, but for how simple the ones in SS2 are I don't think they're mandatory.

It's on my wish list, but I'm waiting for it to hit €5 or less. Looks awesome, but I've resigned myself to not just buying every game I want.
Great game, but I've only been playing it lightly. I don't want a repeat of Don't Starve where I got burned out before release.

Any chance of Starbound going on sale?

I would say no chance.
I've played quite a bit of it. I'm waiting for the next major update to do some more of it, though. I see myself spending a lot of time with it later, so I'm getting other stuff out of the way... which comes down to slogging my way through more A:CM since I promised I'd finish it this year =p
Yeah that's a good point. But I think there is already a good amount of content - the starter classes add a lot of variety. And holy shit the

Got Shadow Warrior, Rogue Legacy and Shadowrun Returns in my basket right now, not 100% sure on any of them. Never played the original Shadow Warrior, nor did I play the SNES version of Shadowrun but love the look of it (I absolutely loved the 360 game, I know, I'm sorry).

you can get a non-steam version for much less than that, i've seen it go for like $17 in the buy/sell thread
Unless its already been taken, a couple pages back someone was offering a code for $10 I think
I don't think so, are you trying to do a giveaway?
These are all very different games.
Shadowrun Returns is good, but could have been so much better with a few easy changes (that they'll patch in next month).
Just get them as gifts then.

I need to clean out my screenshots folder. I've got 3 gigs right now, most of it never used. :lol

I sense a disturbance in the force - not sure when I last saw so many unfortunate misunderstandings and undue tension within our usually safe SteamGAF walls.
You are truly one of us - this is a SteamGAF rite of passage. Welcome!
Castlevania might be my first pick-up of the sale... I think?

You made the right choice on Rogue Legacy the other two games I never played so can't comment.

I keep hearing about this Berlin expansion. I plan to pick up the base version so I hope the upcoming content will be worth it.
Note that you'll have to pay extra for the Berlin expansion. The patches will be free, though (or at least they better be, because fuck that save game system)
