I can't believe that this made it on to Steam. It's absolute garbage.
Yeah, I kinda feel bad for joining their group to get a free key. Their other game, Robot Rescuers seems to be just bad but this one looks really terrible.

That reminds me:
Dungeon Gate was pushed by Who's Gaming Now to get through Greenlight, everyone would get free keys, etc. It's made by Wild Games Studio, who have brought us such classics as Day One: Garry's Incident.
What I'm saying is that everyone should avoid this game.
Ah that explains it then. It does look more polished.
downgrade it until it breaks heh. In all seriousness, I was trying to lower even the lowest settings via modifying the engine config in Watch Doges to achieve a locked 60fps and for some reason now all vehicles and pedestrians are floating, road is missing etc. haha
Performance wasn't improved btw lol.

If you win the 7th Guest, you should get two steam keys. Only one works, I'm including both since I have forgotten which one I have already used.
Let me know if this doesn't work.

Did you hack the planet?
aka part of the problem
joined the group too just now
:O
It's a terrible game to be sure, and a bit insulting in how it keeps calling Army soldiers "marines", but it's going to be useful for me to test out using a Wii Remote as a mouse since I can compare it to the Wii version I also got for free.
Have you seen trailer of 
it's funny
that will teach you!

The artstyle and the supposed toxic community always threw me off from tge game, so I never gave it a chance.
During the college (2008-2011) I had two colleagues that played Tibia and I always wondered why they still played it.
last night :3

It's probably going to wind up in at least one bundle by the end of the year anyway
The whole "vote yes, get a free key!" thing is something that Valve should ban from Greenlight. I wonder how many people actually play games like that and how many do it just for the +1. I mean, at least KenOD has a reason to get it, I guess. It's a shame that stuff like this makes it through and prevents other games from making it onto Steam.
There's no hope for Six Days in Fallujah. I completely forgot that game even existed.
As did I, which it to say it was a joke.

So a game that is greenlit is still not kickstarted, they wanted 150k and got 3k. And it got the laziest name Civ Craft.
I don't know if this is common practice but I know that it sucks.
Also Pokémon MMO is here:
And it has mods, somehow.

I'm pretty sure the assets developed for Six Days in Fallujah were rolled into their next game Breach.

I figured that. Your current Saoirse works well with that post.
It's the 3D Pokémon game we've all been waiting for.
Greenlight is so prolific at this point I don't think anyone can say it prevents other games from making it onto Steam. Not to mention the massive number of failed kickstarters and other projects that have gotten through Greenlight that will never be released. If companies want on Steam badly enough to give away the game and the small percent of people that collect games are happy to get it, I don't see any real harm. Now, if Greenlight was still very limited and Devs started feeling like they had to give away their games (or bundle, which is pretty close to the same thing) to get on, that would be a bigger problem.
Lucky you, I was shooting for that game. Lol.

I hope Sega stops dicking around and announces PC ports for Bayonetta & Vanquish. The world would be a better place if 1080p 60fps version of those games existed. (Plus I have no desire to hook my PS3 back up...)

So I started up Brütal Legend on a whim and don't know if I'll actually finish it. I was well aware of the whole RTS bit so there was no bait and switch in expectations, it's just that playing any of it is just so bad. It's not satisfying for action, it's not satisfying for strategy, it's just entirely fluff with the only thing entertaining about it is the aesthetic, themes and writing.

Btw, OCEAN CITY RACING which has been just greenlit was in a bundle. So, expect keys.
Also Star Sonata 2 is greenlit
And the video on that page defines it as "Action RTS Space themed MMORPG". So I have no idea what it actually is.

a lot of the games from this batch were
Thanks for the giveaway, man. I've been interested in checking out Rochard for awhile now - I've heard good things about it.
I approve.
Isn't Parkan 2 another one of those crazy overly ambitious Russian space games you were talking about? That's what put it on my radar.
Here's a little something. It's not much, I know, but hopefully somebody'll get some enjoyment out of it.

Welcome to the 'New' Steam. There are more than fifty games released just this week.
Doesn't JaseC usually make a list of the games and which bundles they were in?
Come on man, quit slacking.
JaseC doesnt care about us anymore, he's all about redditt now

It would be worse if Greenlight was still limited, yeah, but it still hurts or delays some games from being sold via Steam. I just feel that Valve is so lax with what they allow on Greenlight that it's become the joke that we know it as today. The Greenlight problem could definitely be worse, but I think we can all agree that the service has its fair share of problems in its current state.
CJ's face in that screenshot is begging to be used as a reaction pic, Grief. >.>
Got the 7th Guest, one of the key works. Thanks!
I'm happy to see that I remembered correctly: simply listing a couple of keys separated by spaces after the name of the game works. I had put way too much thought into how to figure out which one was the working code, before that.
Enjoy the games
edit:
One of the few games I have actually played for a while (not that I have actually played through it, mind you).
I enjoyed what I saw of it, then I was distracted by the next shiny thing.
finished Epidemic already? that was fast
Haven't played it yet. I am waiting on my cousin. Lol.
Honestly, there's only so much good that downsampling can do, when the models themselves are so low poly that wheels look like hex nuts and characters have mitts for hands instead of individual digits. That was kind of my feeling when I saw the Deus Ex reskin as well -- the low poly models + high res textures almost looks jarring.

So any comments on A Story About My Uncle, Monochroma*, Kill The Bad Guy or Hippocampal, all released today?
*Played the demo of that one, the controls feel stiff (I died multiple times after falling on a floating barrel and trying to jump to safety), restarting after a checkpoint takes way too long as does picking up/setting down your brother. At the end I was already slightly frustrated, it may look like Limbo but doesn't play nearly as smoothly, the trial & error there never annoyed me. Destructoid agrees with my observations: http://www.destructoid.com/review-monochroma-275351.phtml Too bad. And the high price won't do them any good either.
The demo of Max: The Curse of Brotherhood on the other hand pushed it higher on my wishlist, responsive controls, I like the Magic Marker mechanic and the visuals are nicely done.

Speaking of, I seem to remember something about some modders working on a high-poly model pack for the original DX to go with the high-res textures, but I haven't checked in on that in a long time now, so I have no clue how far along they are (or even if it's something that's still in active development). Thanks for reminding me - going to have to check up on that.
I haven't played Hitman: Blood Money yet (played a few mission on Xbox 360 back at launch) and just installed it on my PC. Which difficulty is best to start out with?
I see the there's no "evidence impact rating" on Normal, but the AI should be pretty normal right? And not adjusted.
Also, any mods I should install?

Thanks. I was just missing Divine out of all the Divinity's.

Come on man, quit slacking.
I forgot to do the last batch so I suppose I should sift through both.
