I almost paid 5 times that price for Blade Symphony alone, only it being multi only game stopped me. You decide yourself is it worth.
We need to play some of Blade Symphony now, when everybody will have it.



Actually, lately they had good bundles left and right. Not awesome or anything, but at least one good game in most bundles.

I'm gonna hook the thread here without reading anything else, just saying that I'M UP, I've always been up, and I'll always be for some GAF L4D2 extravaganza.

So... can we agree on a date and time? I suck at the game, but I'd love to laugh along with my fellow SteamGAFfers while playing it.

If my sister frees the PC early enough, I would be able to do it tonight.

The basic badge looks nice, and the common background goes for around $.65, so it's not too big of a loss.

I think I'll just keep it. I didn't really spend money on the cards. I sold other cards to get them. I'm not really into this stuff but I think for Shovel Knight I'll make an exception

This is for people who aren't getting the current indie gala monday bundle which includes blade symphony (what most people will be getting it for) and a couple other goodies.

I've also heard that Toki Tori 2 is one of the best puzzle games around, I enjoyed the first one and have yet to try the second one.

into the dark is not the dlc listed in the picture, it's a weird looking fps game that apparently requires a decent political education to understand...

edit: not sure why i didn't just remove the image the first time i edited this.

Huh. Steam/Crytek finally fixed Warface being permanently in your library.

Plus you have a chance to get that really cool rare background. I'm waiting for it to drop under 2 bucks. It's been dropping huge amounts every day. Yesterday it was $6. Day before it was 10$. Today it's $3. I firmly believe by the end of the week I will own that background for a dollar.

Jawmuncher said:
Yeah they're like a hour each

Damn that might take awhile then. Was gonna have it run to get the cards before CS, but I probably won't even get one in with those kinda drop times.

Some tips:

1) Explosion damage stacks in Bioshock 1. That means if you stack up 5 explosive canisters and then lure a Big Daddy on top of them and then set them off, you'll get 5 times the damage. You can basically kill a Big Daddy in one shot using this method.

2) Find an environment with a wide pillar in the center and use the electricity to stun them, then shotgun them. Then put the pillar between you when they come out of the stun state. Always try to keep something between you and them unless you are ready to stun them.

3) Shotgun electric buck is your friend.

4) Shock them in water, use anti-armor rounds, run away.

5) Try and get them to fight random splicers to distract them. Ditto for your drones.

6) Don't be afraid to fight a bit and then run to a healing station. They are cheaper than using a health pack.

7) Telekinesis is super powerful. Even just a thrown dead body is strong. Electricity and water, fire and oil stains, exploding machines, point blank shotgun...these are the power moves.

Have fun (though you probably won't read this)!

yeah i found the shotgun and it became easier, thanks for the tips, still i think it's a little hard for normal, i was thinking of just running through it but the game is fun i'll keep playing.

I'm told this is a very different game from the original with more open world elements. Everyone who has played it seems to really like it. I already own it from another bundle​

So why is Abyss Odyssey being hyped hard here? What's so good about it other than it looking pretty.
Click to expand...

I can only speak for myself and say I'm hyped for it because it looks pretty. Some videos made it also look fun to play, but it's the art style that really sold me on it.

When is your tonight? :D



But all in all I guess now is kinda short notice, as at the moment I just need to sleep - it's 1 AM here, after a super long day - and tomorrow I'm needed in the office, so I guess I won't be free until like 5 PM (GMT+2). This said, I hope starting tomorrow I'll be less drowsy in order to stay up later at night!


Anyway, I'm gonna check this thread first time tomorrow morning to see if there are any news about it! :)


also i suck hard too, but L4D2 is just too much fun no matter what!

Good to be back SteamGAF, I won't ever get banned again after two weeks of no reply button. I really love the idea of timers for games but why oh why CS? Murmurs of TF2 and L4D2 should be heeded, lets dooo ieeet

I have a question about Steam Family Sharing. Say that I share my library with another person. Then if I set myself to be offline, would both of us still be able to play the games in my library?

Family Sharing is disabled when Steam is switched to Offline Mode. This wasn't the case at first, but it didn't take long for Valve to cotton on to the fact that people were using OM to circumvent the disallowing of concurrent library access.

Is broforce really that awesome as it seems? Games tend to get boring for me when they are repetitive.
Click to expand...

I would say it gets a little boring once completing the campaign which took me 3 or so hours. Most of the other modes require local Co op or multiplayer which was pretty buggy for me. However they are always adding new content

My timezone is GMT-3. You are 5 hours in the future, but we still can coordinate something with enough time. Maybe this weekend?
