You can now get extra full gift Groupees Be Mine 13s for 1$ if you bought it for 4$ previously.

that's actually tempting, some of those games make good gifts. Thanks for pointing it out.

edited: how I actually go about that? I haven't used $days until now. I don't see such option in the purchase part.

Yeah, sorry about that. Card 3 is bugged because they changed the link on it. My database has both the old one (where it was expensive, because it was newly released) and the current one, with the correct market link and lower price. Since I get this data from an external source, I'm not sure if it will be worth trying to get it fixed before the sale starts and the cards inevitably change names again, sorry.

No problem, haha. Just freaked out myelf a little when I first saw this. Then I searched for the entry in the community market manually and saw that it's "just" worth ~0.20€ :D
 

Sub Zero

his body's cold as ice, but he's got a heart of gold
So I think it's time to upgrade the GPU. anyone have a recommendation for a 770? I've had good luck with EVGA so far, but other than that I got nothing...



Should be wearing a Los Pollos Hermanos apron.

Wait for the 800 series to come out

It should happen automatically if you're logged in and you buy it for 1$
The 4$ section is darkened out, but the recipient should get everything.
 
So, I'm currently blasting through Bioshock 2 for the first time, so I can get some Playfire Rewards... And I'm bored out of my mind.

The levels drag on far too much, and they all are very samey: Go from A to B, kill lots of Splicers, harvest some of then so we can spawn even more Splicers, get to B just to find out that you'll need to go to C first to find a new Plasmid/Weapon, choose wheter to save someone that has been bugging you or not.

I also find the plot lacking, although I don't know if there's a twist like in the first one. Right now, I'm on the fifth level (Siren Alley), and everything since the second chapter feels like trying to come up with excuses to make the game longer. We learn a shit ton of backstory for each level's antagonist, and then some litlle things about Eleanor, Dr. Lamb or the power struggle between Ryan and Lamb. But, does it really matter in the end? You're just visiting places because someone always blocks the path of the train when you reach the station. It feels awfully artificial.

I guess I'll keep playing, but I'm going to stop for a couple of weeks after I finish Dionysus Park (which is the last reward I need). I even played the first level of Minerva's Den to get the 0.50p reward, but I found it similarly awful...

So, does it get better at some point? Also, is Bioshock Infinite much better? I was going to pick it up during the Summer Sale, but now I'm not sure about it... I know Bio 2 wasn't done by Irrational, but I also got bored with the first one back in 2008, so maybe I should give up and accept that I just don't like the Bioshock franchise.

Everybody should buy Gunpoint. Everybody. It's brilliant, go play it right now.

Right. Now.

EDIT: Oh shit they added Steam Workshop support!
 
Dollar Days!!!!!!

*There will probably be a Alcarys Steam key at some point, if you win it remind me when they come out!

Hmmm, Steam just took my payment straight from PayPal without me entering a password or confirming it - first time it's done that.
 
I'm using a EVGA 770 4GB with the ACX Cooler, it's really nice (though a bit pricey).

That looks like a real solid card. Trying to keep it under $400, but I'll keep it in mind. Thanks!

Wait for the 800 series to come out

I know I know, but we don't know when that's going to be. I can always try and flip it when the 800s come out. With the 2 games I have preordered coming in Q4-Q1, I don't know if I want to wait.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

A few weeks ago they moved from Paypal's "Enter your information each time you check out" to Paypal's "You have an agreement on file with this company" service.

You can also see this in your account details screen.

EDIT: not sure, but this might be "US Only" as evidenced by the tick mark on the checkout screen where you assert that you are in the US.
 
First summer sale where i actually have a budget for games :) looking to spend around 50 euros haha.

Steam trading market has been shit to me though :( noticed my steamguard was turned off so i turned it back on.. now need to wait 15 days and because i signed in from my phone on steam i have to wait another 7 days....was just stacking those cards

Played a bit of Murdered. Christ, when those demons see me, I get so panicky.

Panicky? Try actually getting them to stop chasing you. No matter how many 'shades' I hide in THEY NEVER STOP SEARCHING. I'd have to restart a checkpoint then ugh.

Is there any way to set it so that Steam doesn't save your PayPal information?

The last few weeks weren't so hot either, at least Strike Vector is new. And cheap. And still dead.

I seriously think that by now it became obvious to everyone, that releasing multiplay only game on steam is suicidal (there are some exceptions, but not that many). It should have some singleplay, unless it's MMO, then it's not salvable.

Is there a new Humble Fumble coming out today?

we'll now in 40 minutes or so.

Nope, also works in Austria. (You just had to tick off that you are in the country your PP account is registered to)

You can definitely delete your Steam/Paypal link by visiting your account page.

But I'm pretty sure you would have to do this after each time you use Paypal for checkout.

Good to know, cheers!

That Gunpoint deal is tempting me to spend Steam money before the sale :/ It's what, a year old now? What if it's bundled soon? Too many factors :/

Transformers: Rise of Dark Spark discussion thread'll be up in 4ish hours, if anyone wants to discuss the 3DS ver. they're welcome although the main talk will prob. be the shooter version of the game.
