So I remember during the steam sale hearing people talk about getting The Witcher 3 for super cheap using tf2 keys. Is this still a thing and if so how do I do it?

I have the collector's edition preordered for my PS4 since I want all the awesome stuff but would want the game on Steam and it'll probably look better on my PS4 than my PC anyways... but if I can get it cheap enough I'll probably double dip.

Yes, you can still get it for cheap. I think the lowest is 8 keys ($16), 9 keys ($18) if you don't want to look around.

Edit: To clarify, you just need to buy some TF2 keys from someone reliable using Paypal, and then trade those keys with someone from Russia offering to trade TW3.

Pretty sure you can still get it for cheap.

Hopefully none of these are already claimed, I'm pretty positive they aren't but they've been sitting there for a long time.

You still can.

Buy keys from the market and look here: http://www.tf2outpost.com/search/217088512
and find some people trading them for keys.

Wasn't Witcher 3 region locked? Or was it unlocked again?

I think one of my dreams just came true.

Cyan took the copy of Mirror's Edge from my giveaway that no one wanted. I'm really happy now that I was able to get a Mod something he wanted :)

It's region locked now.

That's weird. Is this other page incorrect then? The Russian store page doesn't show any region locking notification, either.

Edit:

Shadownets giveaway is over, so enter without fear of being throttled for some other amazing giveaway.

Here's a charming little puzzle platformer, which offers challenges for all levels of players. Here's a good review from Steam.

This game is brilliant. It has one main strength that makes it a true gem, but it might be often overlooked: this game has two faces really.

At first glance it seems like a very casual but pleasant puzzle platformer. The levels are fun, they require a little bit of figuring out but nothing too complicated. You can pretty much play through the main 100 levels of this game like that without even realising there's more to it. This makes the game appeal to those gamers who just enjoy to chill out.

But there's a lot more this game is hiding... As you'll find out if you try earning fancier flowers, which requires completing levels within a strict time limit. You'll soon realise that for many levels those basic obvious methods of solving them that you used so far don't really work if you want to be fast enough. You suddenly learn the game has a number of undocumented features... little tricks you can do that may even look like exploits, allowing you to skip parts of the levels... But no! You're actually supposed to do all that! Those tricks aren't easy to pull off and getting good enough times is really challenging. Suddenly the casual chill-out game becomes a test of skill comparable to Super Meat Boy. And if you manage to get through all that too and you think you're done... Nope! Super-hard bonus levels are unlocked. If you manage to 100% this game, you're really really good.

This all makes Offspring Fling a great little game for both casual gamers and the most hardcore players. I'm very positively surprised, because initially when I started playing it, it seemed very generic and not standing out in any way. I saw very simplistic graphics and simple puzzles like in million other flash games published on various websites. I was wrong. I was completely wrong. Please take my word for it and don't get the wrong impression like I did. This game is a true masterpiece.

Well, there you go guys. Confirmation that Offspring Fling is indeed a fun game. So someone please take it already before I have to make it into a garbage dump.

And Shadownet, where are the comics?!

Edit: You know, I just noticed, but Modbot might actually make it into the wall of shame.

Click to expand...

According to XSEED, they literally can't put the game up for pre-order, so they're making it 15% off the first week.

Not sure if that has to do with them just being a publisher or if it's a Falcom thing though.

Thank you everyone for entering! I hope this challenge gave you some brain exercise and that overall you had fun doing it :)
Please give your thanks to Ventara for single-handedly created this wonderful challenge with only like 3 hours to do it. Also thank you Gravelord Nito for providing me with the gif/picture that was at the beginning of the challenge.

You guys did an awesome job, a lot more people entered this than I expected. I hope you all will be looking forward to the next time I do another challenge.

Oh wait, I totally almost forgot to tell you guys what the prizes are right? :p

The 2 winners above will receives
Batman: Arkham Knight
The 5 runner-ups will receives
Rad Bats
I'm kidding!
ALSO Batman: Arkham Knight!

The only difference is that the 2 winners will receive them
before the game is release.
While the runner-ups will receive them sometimes
after the game is released.

Thank you once again for everyone who participated, whether you did not make it into the final, a finalist or someone who helped me put all of this together. I couldn't have done it without you.

I hope those who won will enjoy their gifts later on. I will be contacting you individually when the time come.
