Don't feel sad. Abyss Odyssey's still going to be around during the next sale, and $10 for ME 1 and 2 is a great deal on two really good games. (AO does sound really good, though.)

I read the "previously on Metal Gear" junk in the menus of Ground Zeroes. That means I don't have to play Peace Walker, right?

If you're thinking of playing it as a chore to be avoided, then I would say no.
You know what needs to be done.

I feel dirty just idling for these cards!

Yeah, ME is completely up my alley and I'm having a blast with the first one so far! Soon, Abyss Odyssey!!
seeing as it's the last decent metal gear game (not counting revengeance) it couldn't hurt

I built my PC about three months ago. When I was setting everything up I realized that I needed a surge protector / power strip. So I "temporarily" grabbed the one that all my consoles were plugged into. I just realized I have not moved it back since. I will buy another power strip when the Last of Us Remastered comes out.

So I downlaoded and installed Bluescreenviewer to check a problem with my laptop crashing when running specific games and giving me a "IRQL_Not_less_or_equal" error.
It showed me the crash reports in the upper panel and the lower panel is filled with stuff.
I'm not that tech savvy so I really don't know what to do with the information I got.
EDIT: Oh I found it! In the upper panel it says Caused by driver: igdkmd64.sys (and that's four seperate crashes)
Is that dangerous :[ ?

By all metrics, no. It is not good. At all.
But since it only costs time to try, I see no reason why you shouldn't at least dip your toe into it.

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.
That is your Intel Graphics driver. Be sure to update to the latest one here. Not sure if that will fix the issue or not, but it's a good place to start.

Yup. Searched around on google and it seems to be a frequent problem for people.
Installing and updating the drivers now. I'm going to sound pretty cheesy now but it's so satisfying in a way to find and fix different software problems on a pc. A little accomplishment!

This GAR won't shasp.
Are there any reasonably affordable and not shitty wireless gaming mice out there? My G500 is double clicking instead of single clicking regularly, and I'm kinda tired of having wires around, even though my mouse is always at my table.
I'm guessing it'll be something like pick two of three: affordable, wireless, not shitty.

How is Millie?
It's the only game in the new Indie Gala bundle that really interests me.

For the $2 I spent and 15 minutes I've put into it, it's "alright." I can see it getting old kinda fast though.

hey steamgaf, i haven't been that active in the past few days since I'm preparing for a trip to the Dominican Republic that I'll have on Wednesday. Just in case I'm too busy to post tomorrow or Wednesday I just wanna say that I'll miss you all and that I'll be back August 13 <3 Hopefully the place that I'll be staying has wifi so I can still keep in touch with everyone. Also a bit bummed I didn't get to beat Mirror's Edge today, didn't even get a chance to play it either

I wonder if ModBot will ever be changed to reveal the mystery game in the edit upon completion. Actually, does ModBot even know what the original is? Never tried a mystery post before.

One Finger Death Punch --
This is supposed to be a really cool little game despite the fact that it looks hideous, apparently the feel of the game is very cool
Millie -- I bought this for like $1 or something in a Steam weekly sale. Now I know $1 is too much to buy something on Steam.
Even in a garbage dump no one will take a Desura key

you a fan of classic 2D Mario and early Mega Man (Mega Men?) with a hint of pre-SOTN Castlevania? Platformers that can be deceptively simple but can offer a fair challenge without being absurdly cheap? Do you like kickass chiptune music? Then Shovel Knight is the game for you.
And if you don't like the above things, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?

Damn. Someone beat me to the free Millie key. Either they were faster or I was throttled for winning a giveaway 2-3 days ago? Congrats anyway, Darth Kupi.

Basically, yeah.
You shouldn't be because the throttle doesn't apply to garbage dump giveaways. Probably just too slow.

Well, looks like I've found what to link the Garbage Dump image to.
It is new. I don't recommend people use it, necessarily, because it obviously undermines the community blacklist and your personal permablock list and it doesn't work with any other rules including raffles and the people who claim the keys just get the PM and that's it, it's not added to their loot collection at all. It's there for absolute last resort stuff, for the stuff that really can't be given away by any other means.
Mostly it's there so I can automate the monthly trash giveaways more easily

oh it bypasses blacklists? hmmm
I just hate the idea that someone wont take a key I post because they are worried they will fuck up their chances of winning a "bigger" game
I just finished Ys The Oath in Felghana and is a GREAT game, awesome music, adictive gameplay. Thanks Steam-Gaf for the recommendation.

I'll never use it. I don't feel that a win is less than a win (or a game less than a game) simply because the game comes from a bundle, personally. Hell, I'm actually disappointed such a rule was implemented for everyday use.

We are playing now!
Information said:
Different game for next week?
I've been thinking of switching the games up next weekend. Same casual enviornment.
Please vote here.
If you have suggestions for another game, PM here on GAF or through Steam. It doesn't have to be a Valve game or even a steam game. However, I will have to look up the logistics of setting it up.
I've also made a NeoGAF Games Night to help better organize this and alert people when we are starting. PM me or anyone in the group on steam for an invite.

That said, do people pass up bundle games because that Divinity raffle requires you not to have won in the past day?
