I'd buy it for me and all my friends day 1, but Platinum seem annoyingly determined to make it so all their games are playable by as small an audience as possible.
£3.75 for Guardian of Light will all the DLC. Doesn't look like Underworld is available.
75% on both so... very little?
Underworld doesn't come with a Steam key as GamersGate makes practically zero effort to obtain said keys for games that aren't Steam-redeemable by default. GoL is 75% off ($2.49), though.
lol you cray
we're never getting bayonetta T_T
i have my fingers crossed for a decent emulator any day now
Well Bioshock infinite is really bad anyways. Bioshock infinite would be better if it was System Shock 3.
DA2 though, it's just awful. It's okay if you like watching a train derail and can't stop watching but there's nothing redeeming about it.

Oh I know I'm cray; I'm a blind optimist.
Just because Crows aren't going extinct doesn't mean we gotta shove them down GAFfer's throats every time they become proven wrong.
Look to Jase for positive inspiration, now that's one GAFfer who'll end til the end of the universe for Wheelman on Steam...and he'll get it!
I dozed off earlier today and dreamt that I was at Vin Diesel's wedding. I didn't think to ask him about Wheelman, though.

modder added bokeh DoF to Source: http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1401594
eh, not sure. Always liked how crisp and clean Source was. Good for taking pics I guess.

I hate steam reviews
1. some people put a million words into their reviews, aint no one got time for that shit, tell me in as few words as possible why it owns
2. length of review does not correlate to people's ratings of your review. If you post a short "game sucks/owns" or post a long "go into detail on why it sucks/owns", if everyone likes the game, you'll be voted up, otherwise expect to be downvoted because you are voting "differently"
"what do you mean you don't like the game? obviously you're a fucking moron"
Hey, suck my dick retards.

If it's not on steam it doesn't exist.

Is Guardian of Light good if i dont play it in co-op?
Only one sentence long joke reviews seem to be getting attention. It's really sad, because many people clearly put a lot of effort in their reviews and they get ignored. Same thing with Steam Tags, it is more like a plaything for users rather than a tool to sort out games in categories
If you're resorting to random Steam users to dictate a purchasing decision instead of any number of other variables, I would think, at that point, you would want someone to make sure they don't come off as an illiterate, mouthbreathing moron and be able to articulate why they like something.

Yes especially in co-op.
Lowest it's been is $1.99, without DLC, but the only DLC I'd get are the Kain and Raziel skins.
Because of all the shitty steam reviews that exist, I wouldn't use them for purchasing decisions.
There are other games that don't need reviews really for them, like KOTOR for example. Don't know what KOTOR is other than it's an rpg with star wars? Have you been living under a rock? Honestly, all the reviews should just be "why isn't this in your library already"
Full stop.
I certainly enjoyed it as a single player game. It shines in co-op though.

Finished Watch_Dogs and it's now the 67th game I've finished this year.
Took me around 16-17hrs to complete, although I did get distracted with the ctOS missions and the gang hideouts and the criminal convoys.
Anyway, I thought the game was pretty cool.
Day 1 it was a bit meh because of the stuttering issue, but it seems like a driver update or a patch has fixed that because I stopped getting those.
I love the hacking in the game and taking down enemies with putting up blockers or something, although I don't really like how it does a Takedown Cam like Burnout when you get rid of someone, during high speed chases that shit made me crash into a few walls.
Police chases in general were very underwhelming though because they were so easy to get out of, either craft a blackout and sneak your way out Sam Fisher style or make a dash to the ocean because the police don't have any boats, the only police that can follow you are helicopters and there's a pretty cheap upgrade which disables them for 15s and another one which disables them for 30s, more than enough time to get out of their range.
My favourite moments of Watch_Dogs are probably just the moments where i'm driving around in first person just acting all chill, or when it's a windy and rainy night and I'm just strolling along, so calm.
Soundtrack is really meh though, I created my own playlist after listening to nearly all the songs I had at the time and only about 3 or 4 actually appealed to me, which is a shame since ACIV had the sea shanties and basically all of those were my jam.
Multiplayer is very fun, although I do wish there was more to do in the multiplayer, a friend of mine suggested that there should be ways to stop crimes while in multiplayer free roam and I think that'd be really rad.
Overall though, I really liked the game and I'll probably keep it installed for a while.
Oh and why doesn't Uplay keep track of my total time played? It makes sure to tell me after every single session how long I played for, but there's no total time played...WHY NOT?! Well I know why not, because Uplay is crap, but it's just annoying.

well i don't really care how i get to play it on pc as long as i do get to play it
so i'm optimist for an emulator some day down the line
i had a dream yesterday where i was making my own coins with like my face on emI dozed off earlier today and dreamt that I was at Vin Diesel's wedding. I didn't think to ask him about Wheelman, though.
somehow it still managed to be pretty grim like most of my dreams :3
They also change your currency from AUD to EURO for no reason whatsoever.
I'm sure this isn't a common thing, but happened to me, and there was no support to speak of, still pissed off about that.

Your
unfaithful
Besides what you want is a Wii U emulator and we're a decade away from that :V
A PS3 emulator might never exist (maybe) due to the CELL-processor.
my favorite is seeing year old reviews that are like this shits amazing yo! time played 26 mins.

I'm getting "server not found" when trying to load the steam store from a web browser. The store, forums and friend pages don't load from the steam client either, though I can access my library of games.
Anyone ever have a similar problem? Of course this would show up right before the summer sale.

i dunno where this waifu thing comes from, i just like skins, not necessarily the people wearing em :I
well i don't have a hurry
some day...
One already does exist. It's just extremely early thus slow and glitchy, it can 'run' Disgaea 3 but not playable yet.

Great! Thanks for the info! I guess i should wait for steam summer sale, i might be able to grab it from amazon for even cheaper ($/) if they price match.
Now "off topic", its been 4 hours and still i have not got all 4 trading cards from idling orcs must die 2 >.<

There is one that works... it just can't play anything at more than single digit FPS.
High five, I'm also on game #67 (either World Mosaics 7, Gray Matter or Apollo Justice, whichever comes first).

They go through the effort of re-producing existing ones, even going so far as making new figures and they STILL forget about the pug damsel? Bullshit.oh god spelunky minis are coming back and there's even new ones
I just hate blind boxes
Even if there was a PS3 emulator, why would you deliberately want to play that version of Bayonetta? Its port is notoriously bad.
So basically you like cosplayers then
well maybe it could also play demon's souls at a decent framerate while there's very little i'm interested playing on 360
i'm fine either way doe
who doesn't?
Everything loads fine for me. You can check here if the problem is on your end or if it's for everyone:

Everything seems fine on steams stats. The problem is probably on my end, though I'm not sure what is wrong.
I read about flushing the DNS servers and tried that with no change. It was working fine at the beginning of the week so I'm not sure what has changed.
Edit: The error code from the store client is "steam error code 105"
Edit2: Manually set DNS servers and that fixed the issue. I don't need these kind of problems in the morning.
Thanks for Reus! I can finally remove it from my wishlist
