Gonna start The Wolf Among Us for the first time. So excited! Thanks again Sub Zero for this
Yee have fun. TellTale usually does a pretty great job on these adventure games.
Im about to finally put an end to O&S. I have a feeling I will finally show Dark Souls who's boss.

Ugh that sucks, I hate people like that. You're right, she should know better if she works at the mall. It's very frustrating when people keep coming in when you're already supposed to be closed. I hope your next shift goes a lot better.
Reminds me of a situation when I worked at Gamestop. I was opening the store, working on the putting new prices on the stuff that changed and someone called the store. I answer it and there is a woman on the other end screaming at me. After a few minutes of that she said someone at my store had recommended one of those crappy third party coolers for the 360 and that it had started on fire (makes sense why she was upset at least).
I knew that wasn't true because everyone who worked there hated those things but she insisted it was my store. I apologized and asked if she had the receipt so I could look up the transaction and talk to my manager about it. Of course she didn't have it and screamed at me for another 5 minutes blaming me for the entire situation even though I've never recommended one of those in my life (and actively tried to dissuade people from buying them).
She ended up asking for my name, the number for the district manager, screamed at me for a couple minutes more and she hung up. I called my manager and explained the situation and went on with my day. That afternoon my manager calls and said it turns out it wasn't our store that sold it (shocker).
Gotta love working retail haha.

Thanks very much man, been wanting to do a replay of Season 1 of TWD on PC before I get S2, and never played 400 days.
Eased my disappointed of France heading out of the world cup.
Try to get the stockpile keys, they actually sell for a bit more on the market and if you tell a seller this, he might be able to give you a .5 or a key discount.
You're welcome. I got an email from IsThereAnyDeal saying it was 70 pence on GamersGate so I promptly went and bought it, only to find when I tried to activate it on Steam I already owned it >.>
note to self: remember to keep ITAD waitlist up to date, especially after sales.

bad gameplay lol
Speaking of that SimCity 4 sale on Joystiq, what's the deal with the hilariously incorrect system requirements on the sale page? 4GB RAM? Core 2 Duo? I'm pretty sure SimCity 4 could run on a toaster. :lol

Just got Broforce! The brototype was really fun, so I'm really looking forward to playing this.

What skin is that? Where can I get Steam skins anyway?
You'd be surprised how shifty the game runs when you build larger cities. It's poorly optimized.
France were never really going to get past Germany. This German team has been extremely good for the last few years.
Getting this far without having a meltdown is a huge accomplishment for the team lol. I think they will be an extremely good team in the future if they can maintain this work ethic.
Now onto Brazil-Colombia. I hope Colombia wins it!

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
So I got Magic 2015 Complete for 8 keys and 5 ref from this guy. Cheapest offer on the tf2tradepost. The others want 10+ keys. He is nice and the trade went without a hinch.
Also: I am sure I saw "Complete Version" in the item description, but I have no indicator what version I have after I added it to my library. How can I look into that, just to be sure?

Metro for Steam
Just download it, put the folder in the Steam skins folder, then go into settings to change to the skin.
That girl from the beginning look like Elizabeth from BioShock Infinite 0.o
Seriously.. Retail is terrible. Thank god I'm not working at Walmart. I can only imagine the shits that's going on there everyday. If any GAF work there. My condolences.
Smh read the OT hugstable. Also I recommend using Metro for Steam.

Also it wasn't really made for multi-core processors at all and often crashes unless you make it run off 1 core.

You can get 1 weapon for 1 scrap trades on a couple of sites. Think it's around 8.66 reclaimed for a key. Can't remember.
SC4 has an excuse for running so poorly when it was released in 2004.
CitiesXL and nu-SimCity don't really.

The French seemed to be resigned to giving up... There's a joke in there somewhere.
They never had a proper go at Germany until about the last ten minutes. I hope Colombia also win but doubt they will. Can see brazil getting another jammy win and getting to the final.

Yeah...
It is amazing the powertrips people would go on concerning returning cans/bottles for deposit there.
And most of the time total value was no more than a dollar... sigh
The management setup is a whole other bag.
WAIT, i just realized this will NOT work. If your account is not in good standing when you buy keys from the store, they will not be tradeable! Totally forgot about this restriction.
As i promised here is second giveaway

Sweet, my first Papers, Please card is a foil (and the only one of it's kind, at that). Now to list it for a silly price and wait.

I'm interested in buying Divinity and I saw that I could buy a key from some russian guys for almost half of what I would pay in the Steam store.
Is this completely legal or could I be banned on Steam because of this?

That's the one game that I regret not buying during the summer sale.
I'll keep an eye out for deals/trades though.
Until someone undercuts you, not by 1p but by 90%, thus ruining everything.
I don't know if they ever Region locked Divinity... but that's how I got the game and I'm not banned yet.. I hope
thanks Mokoi! Metro Steam is gorgeous<3 goes along with my Windows 8.1
Everytime I look at skins for Steam I wish there was a way to mod it further. I would love to be able to do a mixed view between "Grid view" and "Detailed", kind of like how GOG does it.

It is so legal thats how most of us got the game
I got divinity+dead rising 3+witcer 3 all for $60 via key trading with russians.

it's legal. It wouldn't be legal if you purchased from the russian store using a VPN, but if someone who actually lives there buys it and gift it to you it's all safe
btw tempted to buy Divinity too, everybody seems to love it
you wont get banned from buying from russian if its a ROW copies. If it was illegal. half of STEAMGAF would be gone already.

Eh, it's all free to me. Getting undercut from $4 doesn't bug me too much.

How do you guys find the russian traders?

Quick question: I have a debit card linked to my PayPal account, can I send money to a key seller with that or do I have to add credits from my bank account?
I'm so horrible about checking the OT, especially in the bigger topics like this -_-.

Thanks for all the answers, I'll try my luck buying a key somewhere.
Id talk to this guy ^^
But no. Go find Liezryou (GAF NAME) or find FarFIX69 (Steam Name) or Dunder on here. Ikkuy on steam is also great.
