SO just to confirm.

I have a Canadian/US stream account.

This WILL work (borderlands 2 goty MAC) On a PC using STEAM?.

 

[ArynCrinn]

wtf, i wake up and Steam is dead as hell.

It was Anonymous man, it's all a conspiracy to undermine Valve's best revenue stream at the perfect time when both dev's and Valve will lose massive sales. The next thing we'll see is a Reddit/Twitter post about it demanding Valve renounce DRM and stop taxing gamers through their shady little market system. Otherwise they'll ruin the entire Holiday sale and leak Gabe's most precious secrets, involving a dog and fork.

How many times do I need to tell people not to buy something for it to stick?!

[jaundicejuice]

Can't vote, can't buy King of Fighters. The timing of this L4D2 giveaway is just so bad.

 

[TheSeks]

Looks like Steam got

Left 4 Dead

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

I believe you said, and I'm quoting you directly here, "Aliens: CM is a totally awesome, underrated game except for this one boss fight that a certain patch made cheap. Otherwise it's well-worth your time."

This is a direct quote.

 

[Cth]

Would be nice if they had all three win since the vote is skewed.

 

[Vilam]

This website needs to work so that I can purchase Shelter before time runs out.

It's L4D2 that's causing this right? Sigh... yeah, a 3rd one of those is really what Valve should be spending time on. Come back to that franchise 5 years from now.

 

[Turfster]

Since Steam has been down today I decided to FINALLY play Brothers, since I heard pretty much from everyone that it's easily one of the best games they ever played, GOTY contender and after hearing the Giant Bomb Podcast GOTY debates....

...What a waste of my time.

Try that on one of my quotes, I dare you

Maybe you quoted the wrong guy?

surely you're joking, mr. feynman!

Since Steam has been down today I decided to FINALLY play Brothers, since I heard pretty much from everyone that it's easily one of the best games they ever played, GOTY contender and after hearing the Giant Bomb Podcast GOTY debates....

...What a waste of my time. I really tried to like it, and I think the last part of the game actually is ok, but no where near game of the year or even really worth mentioning besides the controls are different than normal. Maybe it's because I don't have a brother in real life, maybe because I haven't had my mom die by drowning, but this game is very very bland and the besides two cool moments in the entire game, one in the last part of the game, and the second in the last 5 mins of gameplay, I can say that I'm extremely disappointing by this game and wish I had that 2 hours of my life back.

Again, maybe its just me, but if anyone is on the fence about it, wait till its on sale, and make sure you have realistic expectations for this game, because after hearing multiple people say "its the best game I've ever played in my life" I no longer value their opinion . Anyways, enough of my rant, I'm going to try and finish Zelda a link between worlds and wait for steam to come back to life

Yup that certainly sounds like one of those types of games people on here go nuts over. I'm glad I chose to pass on it.

Also it's 2 hours long? Fuck that.

 

[Zeliard]

It's fine.

It's cool.

I gently coerced Stumpokapow into buying the Game of Thrones video game a while back. I feel we're even.

 

[Kadayi]

Store page is up, but unresponsive.

Also what's with this 'TheMadMan' guy posting the entire ending to a game in this thread?

 

[Pops Maellard]

So Derrick, is there any videogame that you don't despise?

I managed to get DX HR Director's cut into my cart.. and Steam died again before I can checkout :-\

 

[Falifax]

Is this referencing what I think it is referencing?

Considering recent events, it can refer to 2 things.

 

[BrokenEchelon]

Every time Steam goes down I turn on Origin and UPlay just to update them, and then turn them off again.

 

[ClassyPenguin]

Paraphrasing here:

I would see people build a bridge or a new road and I though they were crazy, the just don't understand, they don't understand. Why make new things? It's just useless.

That made me LOL.

 

[jaundicejuice]

King of Fighters deserves a Flash Deal Mulligan.

 

[Vamphuntr]

Hopefully Gone Home wins. Interested in it.

 

[Servizio]

The fuck did you guys do.

 

[woo and indeed hoo]

So how many more hours of this crap are we going to be in for? In other words, how many more hours until the free L4D2 promo is due to end?

 

[Dusk Golem]

I use my sisters kind offer to buy me any game I want on Steam to get games for a giveaway I am doing for you guys on New Years.

What have I become!?

paranoia about the bomb, yeah? seems relevant since we've all blown our tops!

Need to find some antibiotics for my DayZ character.

I'm full on food and ammo, but I need to go to a town with a hospital and clear up my sickness. Then I'll head down and drop a new spawn some ammo and a pistol.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

I wonder how many people made an account today to get L4D2. I made mine when Portal 1 went free, and that day Steam was getting hammered hard.

 

[Turfster]

I gently coerced Stumpokapow into buying the Game of Thrones video game a while back. I feel we're even.

See, the Game of Thrones game is a masterpiece compared to ACM.

 

[Curious_George]

They should have just made L4D2 like 25¢. I bet the load would be half of what it is now. So many people grabbing it now because it's free probably will never put any time in it anyway.

 

[Dimitri2401]

You probably just saved me $5 somewhere down the line, thanks for that.

So, you're trusting a guy called TheMadMan?

Personally, I enjoyed Brothers a lot. The gameplay is simple, yet it was emotionally a really good experience.

 

[Anthony Soprano]

Is this a DDoS or are we to assume people are making bot accounts to get the free L4D2?

I've never saw Steam in this much of a disarray when it comes to network stability, is it always like this during free games for sales?

 

[woo and indeed hoo]

Every time Steam goes down I turn on Origin and UPlay just to update them, and then turn them off again.

I like your style .

 

[Turfster]

They should have just made L4D2 like 25¢. I bet the load would be half of what it is now. So many people grabbing it now because it's free probably will never put any time in it anyway.

They should have just automatically added it to all current accounts.

 

[Lain]

I napped a couple hours and came back to 30 pages of this thread to read, a dead Steam store, and an alpha key for Grim Dawn. A mix of good and bad, all in all.

 

[Yondy604]

It worked guys, got BL2 GOTY for 15$, my god, INSANE deal

 

[The_Monk]

Need to find some antibiotics for my DayZ character.

I'm full on food and ammo, but I need to go to a town with a hospital and clear up my sickness. Then I'll head down and drop a new spawn some ammo and a pistol.

And this is why I'm just going to find someone streaming this game right now, put it in full screen and put my hands on my keyboard in order to believe I'm actually playing.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

They should have just automatically added it to all current accounts.

Wait this isn't what they did?!

 

[BHK3]

Haven't been able to even look at steam since like 2:30....I can't even accept this gift a friend randomly sent me!

It worked guys, got BL2 GOTY for 15$, my god, INSANE deal

This worked right? http://www.getgamesgo.com/store/basket/GGF002094

Doesn't matter that it says Mac??

 

[Miker]

Did Steam go down for this long when Portal went free during the holiday sales that one year? I'm gonna guess no, because Steam wasn't as big then, but I don't remember.

 

[Sianos]

They should have just made L4D2 like 25¢. I bet the load would be half of what it is now. So many people grabbing it now because it's free probably will never put any time in it anyway.

I bought it for $5 and never played it, just imagine how little those who didn't pay anything will play it!
