What the heck took you so goshdarn long!!!
Better late than never...
Took me like 10 tries to beat that level...:/
Wait.. Are you doing in this in spite of GAF? Or does GAF like Alice now? I remember Alice getting a lot of hate during the summer sale.
Different units. ;P
Is that Celsius?! or (lame) Fahrenheit?
Disappointed The Stanley Parable wasn't atleast 50% off, oh well, still picked it up though.

My favorite track is MOON's Hydrogren.
Honestly i don't even know what we are talking about.
I just felt left out :-/
Really? I swear it felt like 99% of GAF was just shitting all over Alice earlier this year.
Maybe the people who liked it weren't on at the time of the sale.

I know it's not the Steam sale, but it's Steam games and it this is kind of the Steam thread now that the other one is closed... sooooo:
Humble Store currently has the following deals, for those of you that are interested:
Risk of Rain - $6.66
LIMBO - $2.49
Natural Selection 2 - $2.49
Foul Play - $3.74
System Shock 2 - $2.99
Luxuria Superbia - $1.99
I personally like the other track by MOON... Crystals... once it gets going, I would just go into some lucid trance and became an unstoppable killing machine... the song makes me feel like I'm some sort of meth-fueled Terminator sent back in time to murder for sport.
The Stanley Parable is an interesting experience... how long you play is highly dependent on how amusing you find the humor/message in the game. It's one of those "games" that isn't really a game but more of an experience... or something.

Nah, they automatically remove it from the cart once you log in. Same thing happens when you try and add it when logged it.
I've barely touched pc gaming since the spring sale, so I really don't know what's come out since then. Stanley Parable and Gone Home look really interesting, but all the 0 ratings on metacritic sort of put me off.. are these just people complaining about how short they are? And are they worth getting?

Ignore the naysayers, totally worth it when purchased on sale! Gone Home was a questionable purchase at full price since it was too short, but both games are good value when you can get them for under $10.

Morning fellow steamGaffers.
Recettear flash... hmmmm... I'm tempted.

Nice, but it could reach $2.50
Cards go poof when the sale is over.
Yeah, and yes at least Stanley Parable is worth getting.

Just popping in to add another recommendation for Electronic Super Joy. The game's soundtrack is pretty damn great and the Levels I've played so far are superb. Plus it has cards.

It's weird that I bought a game during a sale and actually started playing it.
Only 10??? I always missed the second shot at the end. I had to do it at least 20 times. I blame the xbox360 controller... lol
I had 0 interest in Gone Home until i saw it popping up on everyones GOTY list and was very, very hesitant to buy it when it was $5 on the humble store but after finishing it am glad i did. It was well worth $5 and it's one of my favorite games of this year.
For $20? I wouldn't do it. For $5-8 i would.

Then you probably won't regret the purchase.

Still have my summer getaway trading cards.
Hotline Miami is the only game where I thought the violence was disturbing.

I think this is the first time SteamGuard gave me my location?
i'll just assume it has to do with region locking since Steam is evil now
yeah I just won FEAR(I have all three now :O
) on the free for all raffle a few pages back (lol) a few....and noticed this should change this for what ever reason lol its not even in the right state.

It's good Skyrim and New Vegas are Windows only.
Or else I would pounce like a little kitty right meow.

No hands on. Just the fact they went out of the way to mention that they have the things you would expect from a PC port. It could be terrible, the same way any PC port could be terrible. I just wouldn't expect a Deadly Premonition level disaster.

Ok so earlier this morning I bought the Bioshock Infinite Season Pass for what I THOUGHT to be $4.99, but then saw they charged my card $19.99.
So I opened up a ticket with them to either refund me the $15 and let me keep it for the $5 I thought it was, or just refund the entire $19.99 and take back the season pass.
This is what I got in my email as a reply:
"A staff member has replied to your question:
Hello,

WTFFFFFF. Anyone have any tips on how to get my money back? I will open another ticket but it appears I am talking to a robot. I don't want to do a chargeback and have my library be put at risk of being lost.

Stupid Gamefly. Tried to preorder MGR:R for $15.99 with my Paypal and it places my order "Under Review" for no good reason.
That's that delicious D2D shit. I'm surprised they didn't call you on the phone.
Ha someone gifted me a copy of BioShock Infinite.
There goes my plan on waiting for GOTY. Now I wish I would have gotten that Season Pass.
S-S-Santa is really real?!

are they on sale? i still don't ahve fallout 3 or skyrim yet. blahhhhhhh
If you just THOUGHT it was $5, I don't think you have a leg to stand on. If you have documentation showing it was $5 at time of the purchase, then you should be good to go.
