Fable always struck me as a game (and series) where it didn't know what exactly it wanted to be and it sort of just ambled about accomplishing nothing of note. I saw glimpes of the Sims in the series, what with the bizarre communication system you need to use interact with npcs. Te game also wanted to be an rpg but you can neither truly die nor can you interact meaningfully with most of the denizens of the world. Lots of good intentions to be sure but it really felt like a jumble of different systems and a case of the devs just throwing everything in there and hoping something sticks, the formula also grew increasingly more muddled as the sequels emerged.
Seems so, still 98% off in the UK though.

Yup, they have some good cards.
ahhh, that explains it, the trailers still shows up on search results, lol
weeklies are usually just bundle fodder. Still grabbed Dementium 2 tho, and it has cards

You're welcome, I hope you enjoy it!
Still 98% off for me, 19p for UKers. Is this the cheapest a paid-for game has ever been on Steam? Surely a mistake.
EDIT: And 99 Spirits has...no discount at all. Yep, Steam's shat itself again.

Huh, it the same thing that happened with Iesabel recently with the UK getting a massive discount by mistake. At least it's with a good game this time.
Dusk Golem
A 21st Century Rockefeller
And pre-ordered Murdered: Soul Suspect. Of course will post impressions here.

Either way, if you don't already own it, I would recommend you to just grab it.
Sweet Mafia II is back on a daily. Bet 2K have been stingy though and DLC isn't on discount though.
*checks store*
Blimmey it is. I bet The Betrayal of Jimmy isn't on offer though, it can't be *checks Russian store*. It is! What a great turn of events.
Ok any Russian SteamGAF around at the moment?
Oh yeah, I agree. The only thing better than this deal would be getting the game for free from a bundle or Modbot
like I did mwuuhuahahahaha

My impressions haven't been good from what I've played... It's a very boring horror-esque FPS that feels like a DS game. The tearing I get is unbelievable... I think I stopped in chapter 3 while working on the playfire rewards for it and haven't gone back to finish it yet because of much better games releasing.
What's Betrayal of Jimmy and why does it require RU peeps?
I have something called Jimmy's Vendetta... but I'm assuming this is different?
You have really quick fingers xD
Oh well, at least I got a good laugh out of it
This is basically correct.
Ah yes, that in DmC was pretty annoying because I have Afterburner enabled and the OSD is by default there as well.

Looks like Steam started to price lower in my region. I see Yet Another Zombie Defense at 1$ in steamdb yet it is .5$ here.
Got an extra code from the devs. Game needs more exposure here on SteamGAF, so here you go.

Among the Sleep --MB-DFF8E7FABEB575D2- Taken by DexterPepper. 70 entrants total.
It's sad that it doesn't even have an OT. I know the game has gone under the radar, but even the most obscure games get an OT here on GAF.
This bad boy and for some stupid reason 2K only released it in certain eastern European countries. Realistically I've spent the better half of 4 years trying to finish Mafia II and still have 3 mission to do so it's moreover for collection purposes.
Yeah, I went ahead and bought it at 90% off. Looks decent anyways.
Whoa, now that's awesome. Now you're getting into the spirit of the Steam thread! Keep it up!

- Games can be preloaded to any available Steam Library folder
- Added new library section for browsing and managing user screenshots
- Worked around a crash in the latest NVIDIA driver (337.88)
- Implemented brightness controls for games like Dark Souls II and Thief
- You can toggle windowed mode on the client with Alt-Enter and resize the streaming window
- Desktop shortcuts will stream games if they are currently available for streaming
- Added 2’ streaming EULA dialog so you don’t have to go to the remote computer to accept it after installing a game.
- Fixed the menu bar showing on the client on Mac OS X 10.6
Very nice give away. I'm excited to play this on Oculus Rift. If I'm not the lucky chosen one I will probably try to pick it up next week or two. The demo was a bit rough on the Oculus but I understand they are already patching it.

This game scared the living dogshit out of me. It's dope.
Totally missed out that game. I remember watching the trailer a while ago, and I thought that the concept was awesome (and terrifying). Thanks for the chance!
I think I broke Jase with my stupid questions on Steam chat, sorry guys :-/
But more seriously, when signing up to steamtrades through steam, a page appear where I must enter a nickname and a valid email adress. But at the same time this is precised :
"Important: Please ensure this is a valid e-mail address. If you win a gift, it will be sent here. Keep in mind, if you're selected as a winner, this address will be viewable to the user or sponsor providing the game."
I'm not too hot providing my steam email, but it is unavoidable right ? I can't give another email adress ? The more I think about it the more my question seems stupid but hey, better safe than sorry.

lol he says to message him ON DESURA.
why are devs so scummy with bundle keys? just give out the fucking keys and be done with it, no hassle, no bad press, move on and wait until the summer/winter sale for your game to sell, thats the only time it will sell anyway
I wish I could laugh at him over the Internet.

Would that work on my US copy?
I don't understand the big deal... then again, I have a separate steam drive from my OS.
They aren't saying that you need to give them the email address you use for Steam. They want you to give them address that actually exists and you have access to.
Yes. Only Japan has a region-specific app.
