ModBot
Not a mod, just a bot.
This is a scheduled automated repost on behalf of Tektonic, who is running this raffle.
ModBot said:I am giving away 5 Steam keys. To enter this giveaway, send a PM to ModBot with any subject line. In the body, copy and paste the entire line from the message below that corresponds to the game you want. (if you include more than one game, you will be blocked from entering). Confused? Watch this GIF tutorial or ask for help.
ModBot Basics:
- This giveaway has a manual blocklist. The giver has identified members who abuse giveaways and restricted them from participating.
- I really appreciate thank you messages, but please send them to me (Tektonic, not ModBot!) via PM instead of in thread.
- Do not trade keys you win off-site to enrich yourself. Don't try to claim games you have no interest in collecting or playing. Don't claim games to give them to friends off-site.
- If the key is already taken you will not receive a reply. Replies may take a minute or two.
Rules for this Giveaway:
- If you are a lurker you are not eligible for this giveaway. You need five or more posts in either the current Steam thread or the previous one to be eligible
- This giveaway is a raffle. The winners will be selected by random draw 3 hours after the draw was created. Any games not claimed after that point will be given away first come first serve.

I've made it a goal to beat re4 this month as my 2spooky game. Will it actually happen? Probably not.

Anyone knows what is in the huge 3.2GB Pinball FX2 update?

In preparation for new tables, I think.

Thanks guys, I need to buy some tables next time they go on sale.
I already sold one of them for the new rig, I cant sell both!
it seriously annoys me that there are cheap laptops and smartphones with 1440P+ displays and yet 1440P monitors are so expensive
^But how many keys do they want for them?
Off topic, and I'm sure someone has said so and I missed it, but Dragon Age: Origin is free on Origin right now.

Wasted opportunity that is. I do hope I can finish Alien before Korra comes.
Since getting my 970, I now just use the counter from shadowplay to check fps.

Speaking of Russians.
Haha, I came in here with a question about some Russians...
Are there any reputable Russian traders around? Ones that won't try to ridiculously gouge prices? I talked to a guy earlier, but his price was pretty much the same as me just buying the games myself.
I'd love somebody who'd just trade at value, not trying to make profit.
I'm pretty sure just about everybody is going to try to make some profit, they are spending their time to help you out.
There is also some risk on their part, as there could be a bigger sale, or games could be region locked, or whatever, potentially making their stock worth less.

Fraps can do it.
I really wish Shadowplay was independent from GFE, I swear that application has like 100 useless services/processes running for crap I don't use (Streaming for example)

Much better to just buy it yourself.
I bought A Machine for Pigs back during the spring sale but haven't actually tried it yet. Haven't heard great things, though. I know they got rid of neat mechanics like the sanity system, which is unfortunate.
But yes if you've enjoyed Alien, definitely check out Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Perfect month to do so as well.
A Machine for Pigs is something I've completely avoided due to it being developed by the makers of Dear Esther...
fool me once, shame on.. shame on you? etc.

Yeah, I'm happy to pay them a little more, but not like, whole keys worth when the game itself is only worth a key.
I will, if I don't find anything before the deals end.

It is a step up from Dear Esther graphically, there just isn't as much to do and it isn't as scary.
Have you checked the B/S/T thread?

Don't make the mistake of thinking AVP 2000 is AVP2. That was the best Alien game

Wait, how much are these AMD Star Citizen keys worth?
Seem to be going for around $25, an equivalent game package is $45 IIRC.
Most of those sellers probably got the keys for 1 dollar :/

So it's be ok to sell mine in the BST thread, yeah?
33c actually, assuming they got Alien Isolation they would have made $50 just from those two alone.
I personally think it's a bit of a dick move so i just redeemed mine even though I'm too scared to play Alien haha.
you could have given it to rhaknar tho
Alien: Isolation and?
Anyone in Japan using Steam? Apparently when they updated Steam to use Yen they locked it and now I'm stuck with more of the shit pertaining this country. I wanted to purchase Alien Isolation with my account but just can't find the goddamn game. Apparently I have to wait until the price is converted to Yen as well, which means probably until the game releases in this country.
I have changed my download region but apparently this shit just sticks to my IP (Japanese) so I can't purchase the game went on sale "worldwide" except for Japan. Ugh........
Edit: Apparently Sega is not releasing the game in Japan. Cool. So now Alien Isolation will never be available on the Japanese Steam so there's no way for me to purchase this game now this way. What should I do if I don't want to go with some overly expensive physical copy of the game that I don't even know if I'll be able to play without getting locked out of it? Why is it this hard to buy a game in Japan in friggin' 2014?

My guess would be Shadow of Mordor, it's sorta related to The Lord of the Rings movies. If that the route he was going for.

Is there any worthwile graphics mods for Half-Life 2 other than Cinematic Mod? I think all i need is new textures.
HL thread bumped yesterday and i realised that i actually never finished episode one and beat episode two in 640x480 windowed mode when it came out
I guess its time for downsample parade

Waking up to a great news here!
The cream-of-the-crop Italian developer Santa Ragione, best known here for MirrorMoon EP, finally announced the release date for its (previously Greenlit) first game, FOTONICA: 6th of November!
And keys granted for anyone who already bought it on PC (on Humble, I guess).
Now, I liked MirrorMoon EP a lot, mostly for its cool concept and visuals, but let me say that Fotonica is a great game.
It's an addictive first person runner in a wireframe Rez-esque world with, of course, awesome music.
Compared to the old PC version and the recent mobile ones, Fotonica on Steam will feature new modes, new visual customizations, achievs, cards, rankings, and everything you need to crack your retinas.

SEGA doesn't like publishing games in Asia, they are dumb like that.
Might be available in retail stores.
Edit: Go find a trader, should be around 20 bucks.
