Posted in July but Toma's updating it for the winter sale
I capped out yesterday (370/370) and had to remove a few people who hadn't been on in 6+ months or who had turned their profiles private. Can't wait to craft some more badges so I can have more friends!

Here are the last of my duplicate game keys. I am sure I will build up more during 2014 though...
I apologize in advance if Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet doesn't work. I heard (but don't know for sure) that if you try to redeem a key for a game that you already own that Steam eats the key. I hope that's not true...
ModBot said:Instructions for participants:

There is a fix for the cutscenes in MK9 for PC. The community ripped the cutscenes that weren't compressed from the PS3 version and you can put them in the PC version.
I never played it but I guess it's time to call out Shrike Alvaron to post impressions!
370! holy smoke, I have long way to go it seems (><)

Right now there's .20 cent Darksiders II DLC, and .40 cent DLC for some no-name games. You're essentially making $4-plus dollars with every transaction, because they all count towards the credits. They have to be purchased individually, though.
The stupid QTEs die down quickly.
The writing stays about median for an action game plot
(most game plots are dumb and badly written, after all).
You crazy wabbit!
(Seriously, you'll be kicking yourself later)

Is this the first Winter sale without any price mistakes? Besides the Bioshock Infinite DLC?
game is damn addicting. I beat it in about 22 hours.
no real desire to ever do a new game + though

Ohh, thank you kind sir!
yea it just takes a lot of time to try and figure out who's who and to give them silly personalized nicknames
it was easier when I didn't have 80 people at my door
I could say that I've finished The Bridge, though it would only be half true, considering that now I have the specular levels to do.
For the price and the length to complete the normal part, it's been a great purchase. The game was easier than I imagined, though some rooms required some tries to pass them, with experimentation with manipulating gravity ever so slightly sometimes.

There has been a few price mistakes besides the Bioshock Infinite Season pass

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.
Apparently Borderlands 2 GotY being $14.99 for about 10 hours yesterday was a price mistake
Yes, that is the problem.
Are you complaining? 80 more people to follow your Hate stories!
Well, it wasn't my first orgy
Also that Steam friends thread that nobody uses anymore helped.But there are two sets of blueprints you can only get in NG+, plus the NG+ achievement. It's NG+3 you want to watch out for, since by then all the normal enemies have been replaced by their top-tier equivalents.
Lizard with a ladder
learnin' with the blacks!
Borderlands 2 GOTY was like 12 bucks for a while before being "corrected"
I was unsure to buy it and then it was too late
Would you mind linking me to the Darksiders II DLC? All I can find are the $1 ones.
Borderlands 2 had field days, it was pricing mistake on gamersgate too.

Warner Brothers wanted to cash in on the franchise name when they decided to put Monolith on Gotham City Imposters (a decent game in itself) and some dumb Lord of the Rings game instead, so yes.
Oh hey, an indirect Critter Crunch reference!So I just got the :trainbowbarf: rare holiday sale emoticon from crafting a snow globe. Uh.... hmmm....
Merry Christmas ???
One problem I had with Castlevania: Lord of Shadows is that 7 hours in it's still obnoxiously stubborn with its incessant handholding, and even goes so far as to repeat itself from time to time. Some blatant invisible walls that shouldn't be there also got annoying quite fast when you're simply going from point A to B, since they only exist in service of the locked camera angles. I wanted to like it and I'm going to revisit it eventually, but the game made it damn hard in those 7 hours to motivate myself to continue marching onwards.
Too bad, it is. Welcome to Tomb Raider 2013.
Lords of Shadow? Just get it from Nuuvem. It's cheaper than the Flash sale from the other day anyway I think.

Sounds more like a silent flash sale than a price mistake. These sites know how consumers work. Haha

I'm hoping to have my Christmas present to the Steam community at large ready in the next few hours
(an updated version of Enhanced Steam)
I'm just having fun messing around, exploring, and discovering new traits. I beat one boss

Damn it, less than an hour to sell enough cards to get Braid...
Could it be discounted at 80% again as Daily or Flash sale?

Spotflux? FlyVPN? Tunnelbear?
Thanks, Backlogger, for Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet! Heard it's a Metroidvania-ish game, which is right up my alley.
EDIT:
Thanks, I might buy one of those later.

Just checked - seems like those went back up to their regular price, but there's stuff like:

Borderlands 2 GOTY was 70% yesterday, its 50% today.

It's not bad. There are probably only 10(?) or so QTEs in the whole game. It tells a good story, has a lot of action, and the graphics were awesome. It's in my top 5 GotY list.

It's a great game. It's one of those that became divisive way after its release. Go check out the official thread. Glowing reviews upon release, widely loved. It's a game that has become cool to hate and the detractors levy unfair criticisms at it that apply to every game ever made.
It didn't redefine gaming as we know it, and for that, some have decided to prop it up as the source for all casualization in games.
Play it. It's a fantastic game.
