Valve Support removes games you don't want right?

Just frigging great, I entered the Spelunky raffle and i am the poor unlucky soul who won(???) the rats game. Even when I win I lose. Sigh. Someday my luck will change...

I think you can hide them in your library now.

How shameful.
At least you won something.

I believe they can but it takes a bit, trying to get rid of Saint's Row the Third?

I think I've entered about 10 raffles thus far...and this is what I win. Does anyone have the gif of the businessman calmly jumping out of a window?
Lol...if i didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all!

Well at least you can't get Bad Rats again right? I mean unless you make another steam account and win it again and put it on that account. And then keep doing that every time you win a copy of it. At the end of the sale you could potentially have at least 15-20 Bad Rats only accounts! Think of the possibilities!
Shows how much I've bought this sale. Can't even tell the difference anymore. Day 6, two games purchased.
whoop.

listen to the mad man
It's difficult to tell because a) Most of them aren't labeled as Bad Rats and are labeled with assorted mystery names that I can't easily combine; and b) People often make errors when they generate their giveaway or want to change the rules later, and so sometimes there are duplicates in the system. I wish I could tell, it'd be interesting to see if BR was actually the most given-away game.
Hopefully I'll get my gifts in time for it!! =D
I really doubt it, that would imply me going to shop for steam cards after midnight on Christmas eve.... Yeah...
You better activate it! I see it in my inventory still :3 You're not a man until bad rats is in your game library. Which, ironically, is why i'm still a babby.

I know that feeling, 6 days in and I haven't gotten anything yet. I was too short in wallet funds to grab Trails in the Sky, but I hope I can make that up by the end of the sale and get it on the last day repeat if it comes up. If not hopefully something else on my wishlist gets to be a price I can grab it at.

So...Gang Beasts...I'm going to a family gathering, my cousins and siblings will be there and it seems like it'd be a cool game to play with them.
Should I wait or go ahead and buy it?

woah Ziggurat looks awesome. A Hexen inspired game? I'm interested

I believe it was 5.99
No, the base game is much better, has far more content, still gets updates (they confirmed they won't release new patches for deadliest warrior) and is much more active. Stay away from it.

It very much depends on how you play and enjoy the base game.
For me and about 60 people in my friendlist who play and used to play Chiv competitively. The DLC is very clunky in term of combat. So after about 2 weeks or so, pretty much everyone stopped playing it.
But if you don't take it very seriously, deadliest warrior is very mindlessly fun with multiple team matches, more varieties to choose from, so yeah probably worth getting.

Indeed. But F1 2014 is tempting at £10.
Luckily, they are different enough that it's okay. I'm with you on the UTME part, but they are all enjoyable, so it's okay.

I own Colonies Edition on a disc. I always thought it'd one day work on Steam, but I feel that day is passed...

Asseto Corsa is calling my name. Anyone have any input? I'm into racing games more arcade than sim but if its a pretty good sim I think I'll bite.
It's like Tenchu. Not better, but probably the best since Tenchu. Not much replay value, but if you're as OCD about stealth games as I am it'll take a good chunk of your time away. When they say stealth game, they mean it, seems to be the only option. No face stabbing.

It's really fun to play and only 3 bucks. It's like a Spider-Man/Batman stealth siderscroller. It's good stuff.
Honestly if you haven't got a wheel I wouldn't bother. Project CARS might be up your street next year they will have better controller support since it's going to be launched on consoles.
Actually, you unlock costumes with different perks that make different play styles viable. I definitely need to play it again someday.

I just want to say if you're remotely interested in the visuals/story of Remember Me, you'll probably really enjoy the game.
The atmosphere/aesthetics are easily of the most fascinating you'll find in a game. A very awesome realized world with a pretty solid story to boot. A lot of people seem to knock the combat, but it's very similar to the Batman games, not quite as fluid but still very serviceable.

I made a mistake. I bought Jurassic Park: The Game from Gamersgate thinking it was a Steam key and it wasn't. I tried emailing Telltale support in case they where feeling generous enough to give me a Steam key but no dice. I also made a mistake in revealing the key so i cant get a refund. My 3rd mistake was buying Jurassic Park: The Game in the first place!

I very much somehow did not realize the steam sale was going on. Been too focused on other things. How has the sale been so far?
Nabs

I liked the combat, but I guess I'm weird like that. I just wish they didn't hold you back with combo options early on.
Sales are fine like usual, but it's just kind of boring this year. The good stuff happened before the sale started with the Holiday Auctions.
