Seems I will be in the 980Ti camp soon till Pascal hits and I sell it for a Pascal card.

Just plug both in and use the windows monitor settings to match how your screens are placed on your desk...
It should just work

Considering this started out as a Blood Dragon like add on to Far Cry 4, I'm not surprised.
Are these individual keys?
Yes, at a least $1 tier. I imagine the $5 tier is the same.
I'm in a weird place when it comes to FF XIII.
When XIII came out, nobody seemed to like it much. All I heard were complaints that it was too linear, no towns, too much sci-fi, blah blah blah. So I went into it with low expectations, and ended up pleasantly surprised. The story was pretty decent, the characters grew on me (well, except for Vanille, but that wasn't a deal-breaker), the pacing was good, and the mechanics felt solid. Based on that, I was pretty hyped about starting XIII-2.
Complete dead end.
I don't know why, but I can't seem to get into the game at all. Which is weird, since I like the whole time travel/alternate realities thing. Got to the first time area, beat the boss, and haven't gone back to it. Maybe it's that I feel compelled to do all the sidequesty stuff so I don't miss anything, which ends up with me having to talk to every single NPC and backtrack all the time, and makes things drag. I want to like this one, too. Maybe I just need to pick it up again when I'm in the right mood, I dunno.

if i understand grouepss coins correctly, I can only use it to buy a bundle--which will not return the difference of the bundle price and coin value--or trade it on the marketplace for past bundles?

I remember when 40 were expensive ones and 30 were normal...

I remember finally buying a copy of FFIII on the SNES. $79.99+tax. Yikes.
Did some bad news come up today that I'm not aware of? I have been saving for the Pascal build since 2012. How much more do I have to suffer? I need to get off this damn laptop.

Cartridges were always quite expensive. I paid like 130DM (65€
for DKC2 No. I got a got deal for a 980Ti, but will sell it when Pascal GPUs hits (if its more powerful than the 980Ti).

Why is Scarygirl the only older SE published game with no discount?

Because it's scary.
I got the $5 dollar tier all were individual keys.
Pffft! I bought Tekken on PS One for £70. 2 weeks of arduous work for my next door neighbour who was trying to coerce me to make a bet on the Epsom Derby. But no I was resolute in picking up Tekken. Horse I would have picked came 4th and an eachway bet would have almost doubled my money. Life's a bag of shite!
I think the most I paid for a PC game ever was for "Command & Conquer: Red Alert" in 1996. For once, because it wasn't cheap back than but I also bought it in like a PC Hardware Store because back in the day I didn't knew a PC game shop. So I paid 110 Deutsche Mark. At the point Germany switched to the Euro (back in 2002) that was roughly 56,24€. I don't know how this price would be inflation-adjusted today, but back in 1996 (at 11 years) it felt like I bought a small car. But maaaaaan was this game worth it. I played the shit out of it and then some.
And best we don't speak about games for the Super Nintendo because they started at around 120 or 130 Deutsche Mark.

I remember Conker was 160DM for whatever reason.
But damn. Nostalgia. I remember C&C and talking with my friends about it.
Deus Ex Mankind Divided is 49,99 ... but yeah, for AAA games that seems to be an exception.

By the way, I have a duplicate. I did not expect that I already had Star Wars from a previous bundle.

Man, I think the patches are way worse. I bought day one, played 74 hours in the first week no issues whatsoever, got sidetracked with life and came back to it yesterday. Random Crashes when entering a new area every hour or so. I only had the real dialogue mod installed too.

I never owned a N64, stopped after the SNES and switched to PC but yeah, cartridges were always so expensive, at least in Germany. If you had more than 10, 15 games for the SNES you were like a King on the school yard.
Oh and C&C (2), omg, was that game a blast. I remember going to an Internet Cafe a few weeks after I got the game and we were playing it over LAN for month. Nobody was interested in the Internet in this internet cafe, everybody was playing C&C and Quake 2. That was way before I even knew you could have your own LAN Parties and such.

That's about how much I paid for it used a few years ago, and that was for just the cart. No box or manual or anything.
I think I paid $80 for Chrono Trigger when it came out. I also remember my friend paying $89 for Shadows of the Empire. That was ridiculous
I'm more happy Fire Emblem Fates got a EU release date (fucking miles way at 20th May) and now I can rebuy Super Mario World for about the 5th time. If the NX doesn't usher in an account system I think I might stop buying digital Nintendo tat.

Stardew Valley is still great, though some of the legendary fish are a pain to catch. It took so long to catch the
, almost gave up on it entirely. Totally not just including this bit to stay relevant to Steam, nope.
One of the best parts of the Direct.
I just hope that digital downloads/licenses transfer to the NX from both the 3DS and Wii U

Square Enix publisher weekend deals, but still not FF IX in sight. Sigh...
Kinda surprised with the RotTR discount. The game seems quite successful and it barely released a few weeks ago.

Why would you want to jerk off while playing CAVE's SHMUPs?
You should want to jerk off while playing CAVE's Princess Debut.
I'm deliberating this while buying £15 of eShop credit to grab Earthbound and SMW. Played like a fiddle.
I was just looking at the two Doom alternate covers that ID Software are asking for feedback on which should be the back of the cover sleeve, and I was getting quite incredulous at the prospect of either one of them not getting in, because both are so much better than the godawful cover they're going with that it's unreal (Pun not intended.) Seriously though, how the hell is this not the face of Doom?
I mean, sure, gaming on PC means I'll never have any of them to put on my shelf, but I still want to see good video game art damn it. Especially for framing and sticking on my wall one day. I'd love to get a good version of the original Doom artwork framed.

I'm buying SMW and F-Zero now, and I'll probably end up buying Earthbound, A Link To The Past, and Super Metroid when they're released in NA too. I feel like a sucker but it's so worth it.
That's another godawful cover though! Still, another artbook to add to my burgeoning collection would be nice.

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.
I just started in on it about a week ago, probably 10 hours total playtime. I'm enjoying it, as it's basically 3rd person Far Cry 4 with a few new interesting mechanics but a weaker story.
Lots of stuff to do and it's easy to ignore the main story completely and just focus on collecting stuff / liberating towns / doing races / etc which is what I've mostly done after finishing Act 1.
After my 10 or so hours, the game tells me I'm 20% complete.

I am thinking about pulling the trigger on Type-0 but I figure it will be on sale again before I get around to playing it.
Damn that's good, I don't have CC tho
And I'm kinda in low money anyway, so I don't think gonna buy anything on Steam for time being.
I still have a lot to play anyway from last year purchase
