Ha that reminds me. I had no idea that steam shows the email address where the gift came from. So now some people probably know my real name.

You're right. Different people respond to gifting in different ways. For my part, I will not act in a way that is not conducive to productive discussion in this topic.
It is of great benefit to this forum and Steam at large that we have users such as these, and I hope no one ever forgets the intention behind what they do. They are good people.

What's up, guys? I've been out at my cousin's wedding all day. I never want to see a pair of dress shoes again.
What's with all the Skullgirls love in here?

Enjoy! ;P
Skullgirls looks fun. I remember looking at the game during the summer sale, but passing over it since I'm horrible at fighting games.
add me on for BattleBlock
Probably not tonight though. Gonna play some Shovel Knight

Started playing Wolfenstein: New Order after the sale...and my god, it is such a good game. Should've bought it earlier. The gameplay is so satisfying, and the plot is fun, mostly. Didn't really expect it to be that great(besides the fact that it's by ex starbreeze guys), although the praise here on SteamGAF, and more specifically, from Antitrop, helped me on buying it.

There's not a whole lot of information out there unless you play the fan translation that's available. I know vinesauce's Vinny streamed it at one point on twitch. If you don't mind the silliness, here's the recorded video.
There's a short thread about the announcement.
It could have been so beautiful, but you just HAD to ruin it didn't ya steam?
I still don't understand how gifting the game to yourself gets you ROW copies for RU prices
or... do they just workaround the gifting lock?
Yeah I guess they really want to polish the Vs Mode to run smoothly if its 4 Players Vs.
Freedom = $1.05

If you like that then you might want to check out the riddick games, made by many of the same devs. They're freaking fantastic.

Neogaf thread, maybe you can put a request there.
It kind of falls a bit apart for me near the end. Even though it's fantastic, certain sections make me think the game was conceived differently from what ended up being released. Still, an amazing game.
Hello Marco! More Skullgirls webms might be happening, get hyped!
I just randomly mentioned it and everyone is talking about it now instead of that whole gifting drama. So let's keep talking about Skullgirls guys. This thread should be fun and happy, not be filled with negativity.
I'll try to make a Skullgirls webm and post it later tonight.

Starbreeze was a good studio, weren't they?
as O3 Games
2000 The Outforce (Microsoft Windows)
as Starbreeze Studios
2002 Enclave (Microsoft Windows, Xbox)
2003 Knights of the Temple: Infernal Crusade (Nintendo GameCube, Microsoft Windows, Xbox, PlayStation 2) (released only in Europe)
2004 The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay (Xbox, Microsoft Windows)
2007 The Darkness (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3)
2009 The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena (Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360)

As much as I want to dislike them for Brothers, they made The Darkness, Payday 2, and The Chronicles of Riddick games, so I think they get a pass.

It's a visual novel so no direct control but she does go to a school for some reason.
ahhh i see you. my list blew up the last few days (less than 40 people)
Is that with or without the combat mod?
super OT but I dont care lalala:
I shouldnt laugh, but a lady here had 498 in phone calls to pay this morning
she thought it was free...who would assume that a phone in a hotel room would be free

Like, how good is it? Because I'm extremely jaded when it comes to shooters. I've been playing them since the Wolfenstein 3D days. That's the one before Doom, with pixel characters. It takes an extraordinary shooter to even nudge the needle on my hype-o-meter.
What's good about it? How is the level design? What game is it like? How are the bosses? How are the "non-shooting" elements? How complex does it get? How "puzzley"?
I hear people hype a shooter now and then, but I'm almost always disappointed.

It's pretty good, I played it before it was on Steam and I enjoyed it with friends. I got bored of it pretty quickly but it may have improved.

I wish the mini bars in hotels were free
is she the only alpaca and everyone else is normal?
She gets cursed and turns into an alpaca, you have to try and maintain a relationship whilst she does every day activities, I believe it's only you that sees her as an Alpaca. And don't read these spoilers if you don't want to know about whether she stays an alpaca and how/if you can save her.
yes you can turn her back into a human by fully accepting her alpacaness and giving her a kiss
a friend told me to DL a bit back, but our group never ended up playing.
not sure how i feel about thisi played it with a friend

Thanks!
I very very very very purposefully built this PC to be über-hackintosh compatible. So I had to create a Mavericks USB installer with Unibeast, and basically just need Multibeast for audio and Trim support... and that's about it. Oh and need to install a custom HDMI-audio driver for my GTX 770.
The biggest thing holding me back from actually getting a real Mac is that I'd need to go 27" to get a GPU I'd be happy with.. which means paying for a 27" monitor no matter what.
though sadly... with what I paid for this PC........... The difference between this and a Mac probably comes down to the cost of a 27" monitor anyway. Damn it. And I only have a 19" Double damn it. Oh well. Glad I thought of it now. I probably just will grab a 27" iMac at my next upgrade cycle.

You are welcome!
And naw I play Chronophantasma on my PS3 Okay if you are pretty sure it's AMD then install this: http://www.guru3d.com/files_details/msi_afterburner_beta_download.html
It will also ask you to install RivaTuner Statistics Server, install that too! That tool is mostly using for overclocking but it has a pretty nifty recording function too that is near performance-loss free on modern cards
Before we go on though can you right-click a empty spot on your Desktop and see if the menu says "AMD Catalyst Control Center"?Also would you mind if we do this all properly tomorrow? It's almost sunrise here so I should get some sleep D:
I remember having to use a guide the first time I got to this boss. He obliterated me whenever I used the infinite ammo machinegun (Very Easy difficulty), and choking him didn't do anything. I had no idea there was a punch button!
Good times.

If I remember right, the gist is that the main character is the only one that sees her as an alpaca. Everyone else sees her as normal.
You disliked Brothers? It seems to get almost universal praise. I wasn't all that impressed when I played it though.

This looks very good! Thank you. Never heard of this before. Actually there are so many games on steam I've never heard of before which have such a strong following. There should be a thread about hidden gems on steam.
Also noticed something weird. I always used Firefox and recently started trying out Chrome. The videos in steam were always low-res, even if I went full-screen. But now on Chrome I realize videos are actually in high-def. That's nice.
EDIT: Haha, while I typed my reply the game is gone already without me entering.
It was pretty overrated.
Damn it I actually went to check because of this! Nitoooooooooooooooooo!!
