How many extensions can they be granted?
No idea. It's just the one thus far, though, so I would assume another would be possible provided there were a convincing case.
At the best you wait on DW8: Empires.
I'm guessing to have more players. Currently the EA is payed (it gets you some exclusive stuff), but since the game is supposed to be F2P it makes sense that they'd want to test it with more players than just the people that payed for EA.

Ah nice, I didn't know that was coming to PC. Now I just need Samurai Warriors 4 to make the leap as well.

Thank god the market lockout has finally been lifted, was excruciating. Went on an idling spree over the last couple of days and collected something like 50+ cards to sell, mostly animu ones heheh.
Time to go on a market gaming/badge crafting spree!
Oh, and is there some place you can donate unwanted coupons to btw?

R* just made India and China-specific subs for GTAV. Grab the game on the cheap while you can -- although they're not region-locked yet I can only assume that's the intention.
Edit: Oh, they've already been put to use and are giftable. That practically rules out any heavy region-locking measures.

Wasn't this the game that released with access so early it didn't even have sound at first?

Might be too late, I can't see the purchase button and price anymore when using http://store.steampowered.com/?cc=cn.
The subs just went up on the store (see my edit).
Edit: ACRTAG has been added but it doesn't affect India/China.

And Russia's preorder seems to be almost live, the search now shows 2499pуб, the store page still nothing.
What if all those chinese copies turn out to be chinese only?
The issue would blow up and R* would essentially be forced to make a new language-locked sub and revert the previous one to its initial state. What R* needs to do (because it's already too late) is make another CN-specific sub and disable gifting on it -- while that is easily circumvented, R* would be under no pressure to revert any heavy-handed region-lock measures since people shouldn't have been gifting it in the first place (see: Squeenix and Thi4f's RU/CIS pre-purchase subs).
Just finished Hexcells - pretty gutted tbh as i stupidly thought for some reason there were three separate 'worlds' not the game saves - haha what an idiot. It kinda took the shine of it as i was looking forward to the next set and it was complete. Probably going to max all three game saves just for fun now.
Straight onto Hexcells Plus and was fine until i got stumped a little on 1-6 till i realised the only way to get the answer was to
If that's an ongoing theme i can see how folk were going on about plus being a brain squeeze.
Oh anyone that hasnt tried Hexcells and enjoys the odd puzzler they should give it a go or they are doing themselves a dis-service

Count the number of blue tiles remaining, never needed to do that on Hexcells.

... and that's why volvo will be super-quick to add China and India to the "Asia" region .... there's no way they're going to let it slide ...

Can they change my game to be censored or is that unlikely?
R* made the game $30 by its own accord. 99% of the games on Steam CN are priced identically to the US because the region has no special USD pricing a la CIS countries (if it did, China would already be included in the ACRTAG group).
As I said last night, it's theoretically possible, but since the game has been taken down from Steam DE I assume Rebellion will leave the sub alone.

Hmmm. They lead to different subs, old and new.

After this fix that, 'cart trick' used to buy row copies might still work, since they didn't block buying main package from CH/IN

I was avoiding mentioning this because I don't want R* to fix it before I can get my hands on a copy.

Glad I got my China price before all this confusion began.
That's Rockstar's own notice (go to purchase something as a gift and you'll see there's no caution message). I don't doubt it's trying to to twist Valve's arm, though.
Better get fast if you need it now and add to account in case of retro-locking.

listen to the mad man
finally i am free
Yeah ~$40 for last-gen /w season pass,
~$50 for next-gen/dx11 version.
(Last-gen version is digital only.)
Is this the new updated version?
So what do you play now? I get the feeling Hexcells is going to leave an empty void in a few people's hearts.
Still 27ish hours is cracking value for money.
£22.85 here. http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00QEU6TRI/

Damn, I want to play Hexcells right now :/

58921 is back. Still no actual activation restriction.
Do you think they'll just add in a run lock? It wouldn't be difficult and they can always point to that notice if anyone complains about it being retro, especially with most people getting the old sub versions.

Valve says Steam Machines 'front and center' at GDC
(It's from a few days ago, but I hadn't seen it mentioned yet. mock if old, etc)

It's a distinct possibility.
Apologies everyone waiting for the results today for the Steam GOTY Award as it will not be happening today. Unfortunately I haven't even counted all the votes yet due to work and other stuff, I've asked a mod to change the title so no one gets confused.
I haven't set a date for when the results to be released to stop further disappointment but I hope it to be soon.
Apologies again.

The dream is dead once again RIP in Peace. Come on, join me in the "I paid the full price for EU GTAV" preorder bonus shirt crew
After finishing The Evil Within, I think I'll continue on the horror roll and start Alien Isolation. I also remembered that I bought the Season Pass for EW in the autumn sale and I am glad I did, can't wait.
