Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I just uploaded Enhanced Steam for Google Chrome version 6.4.1 to Google. This is a maintenance release that addressed a few issues:

  • Fixed a bug where SteamCardExchange links weren't showing properly
  • Fixed a bug where sometimes a user's wishlist wouldn't load properly
  • Fixed a bug that would cause highlighting to not work correctly for some users
  • Fixed a bug that caused PCGamingWiki links not to show correctly
This update should roll out within the next 30 minutes or so if you already have Enhanced Steam installed.

If after updating to version 6.4.1 and you are still experiencing issues with highlighting, you should select "Clear cached data" from the Enhanced Steam menu which can be found at the top of any Steam page.

I have a question about selling cards. Is it a good idea to sell a card from a new game at the price it's recently gone for if that price is really high, or is it just wishful thinking?

i think it's all YMMV, especially with buy orders being implemented. No harm in trying to get as much as you can.

From my expierence price on cards always go down and not up. Only exceptions are games taken off steam and card mess ups.

I tend to sell everything for a penny less than the lowest current price myself, because I price cards to move. That said, it's really your call.

I've sold regular cards of a new indie game for 1€ a piece. It's of course luck, sometimes the benevolent/crazy crafters only start buying after the price has come down but some of them really don't care and will buy what is there for whatever price.

Well I'm trying to sell a Q-Bert card for 84 cents. I'll see how ti goes.

Nobody will buy that game so yeah, could work. Prices may even go higher.

Q-Bert is Q-Bert. They didn't really screw anything up, but don't expect any huge overhauls. It's a $5 game. It has new art work and you can unlock more aliens.

The game saves after each 3 stage level, which I suppose is different from the arcade release.

Aside from that, I don't think many people without an affinity for the arcade game should be falling over themselves to purchase it.

Doesn't sound bad for what it is. Are the new characters just cosmetic unlocks, or do they play differently from Q*Bert?

I'll let you know when I collect enough gems to unlock one. I'm not sure how they could do much more than hop from place to place though without changing the rules of the game.

Bummed at no one giving away infinite.

Started playing Bio 1, but I'm not in the mood for it. Think I'll give The Bureau a shot first.

I got the OJ card emoticon when I crafted that badge. Disappointed when I saw how little it was going for compared to everything else :|

Oh well, still got that amazing chicken badge. It's by far the best badge of the bunch, it should have been the fifth badge level.

Stump, small ModBot suggestion here, if you don't mind. Now that we're required to say thanks via PM rather than in the thread, would it be possible to put a PM link to the person who held the giveaway in the ModBot "You Win _______" PM? Would make it a lot easier and probably increase the number of people who actually say thanks for their wins.

whats this now? new rule? please say so >_>

They needed to make the chickens the boss, and not the mud monster with "Boss" stapled to his head.

Oh darn I kinda wish I hadn't sold my cards now, then I could have got a Chicken badge!

This update seems to have fixed any issues I had with the last version of ES. Thanks!

I never brought it up because it's actually an issue with Steam/Chrome (it kind of logs me out when I close the browser).
