On a fun little side note. Can you guys tell me.. :)
1) who on SteamGAF has your favorite avatar? like the avatar that you love the most. (beside your own)
2) who is your favorite SteamGAFer?
3) the best post you ever seen on SteamGAF? no need to go searching for it. Just give me the clipnote version.

1) JaseC's derpy Saoirse, for sure.
2) Stump, no questions asked (I suspect he's the only reason we aren't in community yet).
3) Trading Rogue Legacy for Rage... Oh wait, the post that netted Milamber his tag was more epic.
 
Unclaimed spare, take it please.

Woah, just came on my laptop and immediately won CSD from lashman. Thanks a bunch man. Let's see what the fuss is all about. I know PM thanks but since I already post why not add it?

no problem, dude :) have fun with the game ... and try not to ragequit
too often :p
 
Apparently I've activated too many games on Steam in a short period of time (claiming all my recent bundle purchases). Anyone know how long it takes before I can redeem again? I still have a few bundles left to claim.

I've not played the Steam version, but I have played the (free) Android version. If you've ever played the flash game Pandemic, it's basically that game, but with extra features, and different types of diseases to choose from.

If you haven't played Pandemic, your goal is to basically wipe out the worlds population with a virus. There is no story other than a newsfeed detailing the spread of the virus, and you don't play a character or anything. You just start with a world map, and one person in the world infected. You then make choices about how to evolve the virus in order to spread it to the whole world. But as the virus becomes more visible, world governments take measures to stop the spread, and also work on a cure. So you have to try to keep your visibility low, but also you want to spread as fast as possible to infect everyone before the cure is developed.

It's a cool game, but I probably wouldn't pay $15 for it.

Also, fuck Madagascar.
I saw a friend playing it one day. It looked interesting, but I completely forgot about it afterwards. I remember laughing a lot when a news piece appeared saying "Gamers start worshipping Helix fossil" or something like that.

So $5 is worth it? I've never completed a city-scape action game, but I've always found a few hours of entertainment in games like Crackdown, Infamous, Hulk, etc.

I'd say it's worth $5! I never beat the main storyline, but had fun running around with the cool powers the MC has.
 
hey now

gm is no joke :mad:

it should work again in a few minutes, assuming you got blocked for activating too many actual keys and not for trying too many bad keys

Do they post what future sales are going to be somewhere? :O

They posted the Steam sales on their blog:
http://www.bethblog.com/2014/07/17/quakecon-2014-earth-shattering-sales-for-pc/

Thursday: Dishonored: Game of the Year and all Dishonored DLC at 50-75% off
Friday: Wolfenstein: The New Order and DOOM Sale at 50-75% off
Saturday: Fallout 3: Game of the Year, Fallout: New Vegas, and all Fallout: Classic Collection at 50-75% off
Sunday: The Elder Scrolls Sale, with Elder Scrolls titles selling for 50-75% off

GMG did Wolf/Doom yesterday and Dishonored today, Gamefly also did Dishonored today, not sure what they did yesterday.
 
I got hit with that once and I think it was just a few hours.

Seems to vary, but took an hour for me.

Dang. Alright, thanks for the info.

Nah, they're legit keys. I had been saving all my bundles because I was at 999 games and was waiting on a copy of Prey to get here for my 1k. Now that I have it I'm trying to redeem everything I've been holding out on.

I'm not really sure it's a Steam key. I hope it is.

"Stalking the Sexy Beach, looking for Prey", which changes to "Milamber Alert" on mouse over.

(He posted picture of him redeeming Prey on Steam and forgot to remove all the Japanese porn games shortcuts on his desktop).

HEY!!!


Keep in mind that if they beat me, at the bare minimum it would mean they would tie you. :D


So, my suggestion is this: we should keep our mouth shut for another month or so, wait for all this CSD frenzy to die away, and then start fighting again for that fucking 300 combo.

I want the OG PC version with the sprites. Konami messed with the PS2 version, and they'd probably port that to PC.
You can buy the PC version from Falcom and then add the translation patch yourself, if you're feeling adventurous. Lot's of people have done that in the past (me included)
 
Went and bought this in the summer sale didn't I
