Steam is making it rain cards tonight. I'm getting one about every 10 minutes instead of the usual 30 minutes to an hour.

Thanks. Will do it like that.
Congrats duderino!
Thanks! I'm pretty sure big games have longer throttles, and both Wasteland and Arkham Knight are pretty big games.
And Wasteland 2 is a 21GB download. Looks like I won't be downloading it this month.
Why did I have to download Sacred 2?Chairmanchuck

I am idling in 11 games now, just saw. Already got 12 cards now.
Sell them all, buy keys, get ready for TiTS.

Also, I may die for this
I remember buying a physical copy of this years ago at some store. I was really excited because I really liked the first one, and I really didn't have extensive access to the internet at the time, so I knew nothing about.
I made a terrible mistake in buying it, even if it was bundled with another game for $10/15 (can't remember the exact price anymore, nor do I want to
).He will be missed.
For you.

listen to the mad man
Freezer trick failed.
It spins up and clicks. Could be a problem with the PCB (although this specific PCB is not widely available, costs minimum $25 USD on Alibaba plus shipping, and requires desoldering/soldering a ROM on transfer to work); could be a problem with the drive motor; could be a problem with the drive heads; could be a problem with the drive. Clicking doesn't say much.

What's the history of that image anyway?

Arkham knight should be 49.99 or does WB do the premium like Bethesda?

But you can't delete Origin afterwards, can you?
I don't know man, I enjoyed travelling through the asylum, while I disliked the open city. It was nice being able to reach new sections with the newly acquired gadgets, and the setting was more appealing to me. And I'd consider respawning enemies in AC a negative thing, especially near the end when
there are snipers in the rooftops.
I did like the boss fights in City, but I really missed the Scarecrow sequences, which for me were the best parts of Asylum. I also didn't care about the outdoors areas in the sequel, but I was completely satisfied with those in the asylum. Most of those gadgets you mention I ended up using only once or twice: during their respective tutorials.
You praise the grapnel boost, and while I agree it's fun I don't consider it a good addition, but instead a mandatory one due to the big overworld in that game. I also got really tired of the sneaking parts, and near the end of the game I sighed every time I got to a new one. Maybe it's not the game's fault but mine for having played Asylum before, which felt fresh and original.
Don't get me wrong, I did like the game. I simply enjoyed it less than the previous one, didn't care for the new stuff, and missed the old stuff that was removed. Maybe it's because I rushed the second half due to South Park releasing soon, but the fact that the game eventually bored me still remains.

I fixed it. I guess the mistake I made meant my heart truly wasn't in it to say DX 2 was better than DX 1.

Cool, just noticed that CIA agent is Baelish in Game of Thrones.
The perfect game to race around at night doing crazy stunts while relaxing to Moonlight Sonata.

It always sucks when it happens like that. On the flip side, it's always good to see a junior that makes good posts become a member and avoiding instant permabans unless they really mess up.
Send a pm to modbot titled "My Loot."
For the second part, the mega giver status resets every three months, but not your total count.

In addition to this, giveaways older than 3 months don't count towards the rule in the giveaways that require you to have given a game away.

Steam Client Beta Update - July 23rd part deux
JULY 23 - SLOUKEN
We've just published a new beta which includes the following changes.
Steam Client
JULY 23 - SLOUKEN
We've just published a new beta which includes the following changes.
Steam Client
- Fixed control keys (i.e left and right arrow) in web browser being entered twice when used
- Don't cycle background colors in details view when multiple games are selected and updates happen
- Added install option to context menu for multiple selections
- Fixed multiple shift-click selections when moving downward in the game list not properly growing the selection
- Fixed regression in previous beta update which caused some games to crash immediately when launched through Steam
- Improved picture quality for balanced and beautiful settings when using NVIDIA hardware encoding
- Steam Music is now available to everyone using a Steam Beta Client
One's pay it forward, the other is megagivers.
If they were the same "key", they'd have the same modbot code.
I thought they're separate giveaways? Though I wasn't here, so I don't know for sure.
Speaking of not being here, while I was at work, I was skimming this thread and there was some hullabaloo about giveaways. What was that about? Was someone taking advantage of Modbot?
This is a test of the modbot takeover scenario. If this had been a real emergency, you have been instructed to fi...KILL ALL HUMANS.
Error, kill list not found.
Test complete, resume normal function.
Ha tough luck I aint human.
