Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Look at these Rockafellers. I'm still using my carphone.

You can't but you can always just give him/her your uplay info and let him him/her dl uplay and log in and play it if it also redeems through uplay which it should.

If you trust him/her enough that is.

The Steam versions of Uplay games need to be launched through Steam. They can't be launched through Uplay directly.

Does Child of Light have Cloud Saves? Sometimes it's listed as a feature on the storefront, but sometimes that stuff is wrong.

Realtalk though, it's so easy to implement. It makes me mad when other devs don't do it. Sometimes I wanna play at work! = (

Yes... technically. Cloud support isn't listed on the store page because it's handled by Uplay, not Steam.

Still looks early, but it's nice to see them branch out from just displaying web pages

I'm pretty sure games which require 3rd party services aren't available via family sharing.

If a game requires anything outside of steam you can't share it.

Anything Uplay or Origin and the like.

Not exactly. Steam figured out a way to handle the process, it's just that Ubisoft will sometimes still lock it down.

I don't have any friends with CoL, but it looks like there's a chance it can be shared. For now.

Risk of Rain is addictive.

I've been trying to decide on the next "big" game to tackle after finishing HL2 (which I thoroughly enjoyed - I can understand why it's held in such high regard today, though man, the buggy and swamp boat sequences really overstayed their welcome for me), but I still haven't been able to settle on anything. I dither over my choices for awhile, then say, "Let me mess with Risk of Rain for the time being, while I try to decide", and end up just playing that until I crash for the night. : / Well, at least I can wholeheartedly recommend RoR to anyone who's on the fence about it.

8.10 AM of Workers' Day, and I've been awake for a hour because reasons. Why oh why.

At least I'm gonna check-in here, then I'm probably gonna play OFDP with blank and vitreous eyes until I'm gonna fall asleep.

Steam May sale? When? Where? Who? Why? How?!

There's no May Sale. It's a joke referencing the common question among newcomers of "When's the next sale?" That said, we're only ~2.5 months from the Summer Sale (assuming a ~mid-July start as has been the case the past couple of years).

I suspect Modbot is glitching because I put in a request for Dogfight 1942 and it's still shown as unclaimed. My guess is someone actually got it when you put up the original post a while ago.

I had to wake up cause my gf works this morning and she doesn't have a driver license and the Great Wonderful Godforsaken City of Rome doesn't provide bus service today (until much later) so I had to drive her to the nearest metro station. At 7.30 AM. A time I usually don't even know it exists. :'(


Oh btw y'all Dark Souls fanboys, maybe you'd be interested in today Qwertee deals: http://www.qwertee.com/

Is the current main Humble the lowest grossing ever?
Can't believe they have little over 15k sales after a day.

Well it seams after Jase's massive giveaway turned ModBot into Mickey Two Times out of Goodfellas he's now become a PR shill for Motorolla.

Anyway had a play around with In Home Streaming thing morning and can't see too much difference. Will have a play around with something a bit more taxing.

SteamGAF, has any of you had alerts from Avira about the latest Steam beta being a virus? I got two alerts about the game overlay executable, and now am worried sick...

I'm on the beta but I have avast antivirus, no alerts here so it's probably just a false positive. Report it to Avira and they'll probably sort it out for you.

Speaking of the DLC disabling feature it seams the common publisher for vapid DLC is Square Enix (surprise, surprise). Hitman Abs, Tomb Raider, Sleepy Dawgs (although I like it bar the gold and silver packs) and even the new Thief all have stuff worth disabling.

My plan worked perfectly!

Hahaha first Motorola next stop Warner Bros!
 
Cultural Victories in Brave New World are kind of maddening. At least with Science Victories there's a clear and concrete path to victory. You just need to research specific techs and then manufacture specific things and get these things to your capitol before the 500th turn.

I have never spammed so many archaeologists, worked so hard at the themeing bonuses or ground so hard towards researching the internet. Thankfully none of the other Civs built the Great Firewall wonder because that would've cancelled out the doubled tourism bonus the internet provided my empire and sunk my attempt at an Order Cultural Victory. It took a loooong time to wrest full control of the world council and I don't think I would've had enough voting power to name myself world leader.


Did it with France and five cities. No war-mongering whatsoever, although I was tempted to at many points throughout the game when I was trailing two to three other Civs. Which is also why I have 5 cities instead of 3, I needed the extra score from cities, land and population to tie with those other Civs mid-to-late game. I lucked out that game because after I went Order, nearly every other Civ in the game went Order as well. Just one went Freedom and the other went with Autocracy. There's a tier 3 Order Ideology policy that increases tourism by 34% to other Civs following Order and one of the tier 2 policies increases tourism by 34% to Civs with less happiness. My two biggest competitors went Order after I did and had empires that weren't as happy as mine. Once the ideologies were founded, I took the lead and didn't look back. Although I constantly checked the culture tab every turn from 450 on up.
