I was unaware of the new method of verifying my payment method. It made a couple small pending charges to my card and I just had to enter the amounts of the charges. I have access to the market again now.

Of course. For the first day.
That's what Gaben wants you to believe.
There's just no way this thing is going to live up to the ridiculous overhype you guys are spreading, is there? I hate all of you!

Despite not planning to pick much up, I just added $50 to my wallet.
I've made a huge mistake.

Yeah, I literally just read about that, haha. It went live earlier today:
Better late than never!

I saw the announcement of the buy orders yesterday but didn't look at the market yet to see how it actually works
This is beautiful. Can't wait for short sales and options
I have $50, and another $50 will be added tomorrow, and another $80 for later on near the end. I don't think that's enough.
I think I have a problem...

$100 added to the wallet. Now I'm going to go drink 8 egg yolks and lift some heavy things so my body is ready
I really regret not picking this up when it costed a dollar. I blame Rekoil and Takedown Red Sabre, which were bundled together with it. Thought it was going to be a shit game like these two

Almost 170€ in Steam wallet, 108 euro in holiday money from the government because I worked last summer, 60€ as holiday money from my parents (since Im 19 years old and will soon sometime move out this is the last time) and unknown amount of money for this years summer work.
Come at me, Gabe.

There's the option to join GrumpyGAF and moan about terrible discounts and no games that interest you. But do you want to be like that?
You will find enough compatible games. But then you'll see the other prices and start buying everything. Which eventually leads to you buying a $5000 gaming PC. I'm so sorry, there is no hope.
It's corrosivefrost stocking up on copies for his upcoming huge giveaway
Uh weird. I guess it's the result of the new market buy orders feature they just added, but the price of keys on the market are $2.50 now.
edit: actually nevermind, it's updating constantly. sometimes it just down a bit, then jumps back up to near $2.50. It's a bloody pseudo stock market now.

Buy orders only work on HL2 cards at the moment. Key market is probably going crazy because of the new TF2 stuff.

I liked the game, I'm even thinking about buying the Stasis interrupted DLC, but I unisntalled the game already
If it's your first sale, it may exceed the hype

I feel like i'm waiting to be tagged into a wrestling match.

Ah ok, maybe people are stocking up on them getting ready for the sale or something.
I kind of want to see a rolling stock ticker now, like you see on cable financial shows.

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.
Only added $30 to my Steam wallet, but have $150 I transferred into my Paypal earmarked for either buying more Steam wallet credit, or purchasing games from other sites like Amazon or GMG.
Ready to do this.
Ready to do this.
This is what I keep thinking, but I know I'm mistaken.
I'm being fashionably late... No, I full on missed it. But add me, my mom thinks I'm cool!

If I buy the DLC can I play it right away? I uninstalled the game and I don't have the saves any more, or would I have to replay the campaign?
I played a few games and didn't encounter toxic people. They were actually very helpful the whole time.

So, got an hour into Bulletstorm. Decided to go with this game next in my steam backlog given that its attachment to GFW means it could explode any day now.
So, Bulletstorm. It reminds me a bit of Vanquish in that, while you could just play this like a standard fps, most of the joy comes from exploiting the game's mechanics to make you feel like a fucking menace. There's nothing quite like pulling someone towards you with an electric rope, slide kicking into them as they are coming towards you, shooting them in the head and then watching their body get impaled onto the side of a space cactus. I wasn't too fond of the turret sequence at the end of Act 1, though, and im hoping that shit like that doesn't appear too frequently for the remainder of the game.
the visuals are starting to not look quite as impressive these days, though, which is a shame really. The game is also burdened with really low bitrate FMV sequences that just look completely awful when compared to how crisp the game looks and how well it runs on a modern PC.
Lastly, for what ive gathered from +1 hours of gameplay Grey (the main character) is a total knuckle dragger. Refreshingly, my current sidekick has no qualms with calling him out on it and seems to just barely want me alive, let alone willingly be of any help. It's kinda interesting that a game takes the main hero's antics and just takes a hot shit on him for it instead of aggrandizing him and making him some sort of paragon of virtue or some shit.
