This summer has rolled around and for once, I feel I don't want any more games. I think I've hit my limit on ridiculous shit I'll buy and probably won't spend a cent during the sale. Is there something wrong with me?

Thanks, but I mean through the steam client app, can only be added through the browser?

On the phone app? Nope.

On the Client software? You can click on the little part that says "NingenJanai Account" on the top right and click on "Account Details" and click on "+ Add funds to your Steam Wallet" from there.

Yes. You're lying to yourself.

You'll be back. Wait until some neat game goes up for $2.49.

bring on the sales!

Went and got a x1 controller. Feels good. Should be a decent upgrade over the x360 controller. Not a big fan of the face buttons but hopefully they'll get better with time. Rest feels very good although the d-pad seems kinda fragile.

I don't really mind the face buttons (they feel similar enough to me). I prefer the 360 sticks over the X1's sticks though.

Can finally rest the x360 pads, had them for ages and they held up well.

Haven't bought an MS console since the original xbox. Glad to be able to contribute though.

Shame about the PS4 controller - battery issues thread, rubber on the analogue wearing off if you're not careful(?). I'd probably prefer to use the DS4 but compatibility issues will probably bog me down too much. Right call I think.

You made a good choice, it's a good controller for sure! Apart from the shoulder buttons, and the fragile d-pad like you mentioned, it'll serve you well. I've been going with the Dualshock 4 hooked up through micro USB and I have no complaints yet, love the controller big time. The rubber on the sticks has made me paranoid, but haven't had a problem yet, and from my estimation, I've used the controller for a couple hundred hours by now. But they are both great controllers, especially for PC gaming, and great improvements over their predecessors.

Yep. I figured I wouldn't care, either, and now that it's less than a week out, I'm eagerly awaiting games I certainly don't need...but of course want.

Healing items should be banned in arena.

More like From should fix PvP via a total overhaul. Not just the Arena. There's a ton of stupid shit in all the series' PvP. I can't really take those modes seriously.

On the converse: I really wish they'd give me the ability to turn PvP off and just leave Co-op. IMO the game(s) isn't really built for PvP

You can also redeem them as product codes. This is a little quicker since you don't have to wait for the client to load the redemption page.

What? What? What!?

Mind blown.

It means that a game you've given away in the past has yet to be taken.

Edit: Beaten.

I haven't had any battery issues nor any rubber grip deterioration on my DS4. I have 0 compatability issues using SCP DS3 service.

While in Target the other night, as I was grabbing my steam wallet cards, I swung by the xbone kiosk just to try out the controller so I can finally give my opinion on it.

Surprise, surprise, I didn't like it. The L1/R1 shoulder bumpers still suck. And while I prefer the symmetrical analog placement, my biggest gripe about the sticks was the way they felt. I thought the comfort of them was worse than anything I've used recently including the "new" 360 controller I'm breaking in after trading in a bunch of 360 accessories when I got rid of my old RRoD consoles...

The one good thing is that the d-pad is pretty solid now, but I didn't think it was better than the dpads on the alternative controllers... but in the very least, this is a huge step up from the virtually unusable 360 dpad.

Also surprising was I thought it felt really small. I'm surprised anyone who "has big hands" likes them at all, because I felt like my small to medium hands were cramped on it. :|

Funny enough, beyond all that, I still generally stick with using my DS3. Then, depending on the game/day, I will use a DS4. I have gotten to the point where I unplugged my 360 dongle because I never use it.

You can also redeem them as product codes. This is a little quicker since you don't have to wait for the client to load the redemption page.

Strangely enough, even if the redemption page loads a little slower, at least redeeming a code there doesn't freeze the client.

Huh, Classy is still banned?

It was a perma.

I knew a feller named Rhaknar, who liked video games and giving games to the ungrateful dead. He fell in love, with a woman, a blonde. It's always at least one of those. She had a Irish tinge to her character and and Steam Friend's list of strange men who longed to coop with her. (Couch co-op, if the stars were willing to align in just the right way) But she had fallen in love, with a man, an Australian. It's always at least one of those, more often both. His name was JaseC, handsome man about town, clad in black and white and class and koala fur. Rhaknar knew this. He understood. And some nights, he accepts this, as a possible conclusion to their non-existent love affair. But he's a practical man. He likes video games and giving games to the desolate and denied. So he continues this path, and plays the present like a fading memory from the past. He's a good man. He trucks on.

I can now cross "My name mentioned in GAF fan-fiction" off my list of Things I Never Thought I'd See. ;)

So assuming its been like that for awhile, should I resubmit the key for a new Giveaway?

You need to make a new giveaway. Just copy/paste the MB code and tell someone to take it.

Edit: Err, don't need to.

Strangely enough, even if the redemption page loads a little slower, at least redeeming a code there doesn't freeze the client.

In my experience, registering a key only freezes up the client when it's the first attempt of a given instance or if there are server issues and you have to wait for Steam to time out.

What was screwing me over before this year was i was juggling like 10 different games at the same time. Stick with a game or two and play the short ones first. Stay away from multiplayer shit.

Such a round number.

Sadly it won't last much longer as I'll probably wind up finishing Fable: TLC... but it and AssCreed Unity will make two. Watch Dogs is a maybe at the moment as I'm waiting for the stuttering to go away.

Even with the save issues, AC4 was last year?

The game proper, yeah. Freedom Cry was early this year, but it wasn't the standalone version, so I'd argue it doesn't really count.

I'm sure Graham is tucked away in a cave in Spelunky somewhere. You'll find them.

I was gonna say Graham is shite anyway and was looking for a gif of him and one of the first results if you put "Graham New Leaf" in google is a picture of my game

Categories schmategories. I make a distinction between non-Steam shortcuts and my actual Steam library, but that's it.

and just so i don't get a worse rep already, ss2, thief 1 and thief 3 i've played already but had to stop playing them all because of spiders.

I stopped playing New Leaf all together when one of my cunt friends who I invited to town stole Wolfgang from me, I'd had him in every Animal Crossing game ;-;

Looks like Tecmo is working on a Dynasty Warriors 8 patch.

I'd like to know what Capcom is doing with DMC. The patch is the first one in over year and it's been in the works for at least a month, which usually suggests something is being replaced with Steamworks, but DMC doesn't use anything else as far as I'm aware.

well some of us are trying to actually play this shit

Just think about it: if you weren't, you wouldn't be frustrated right now. ;)
