Dreamkiller was yanked about an hour ago.
Edit: I don't think it's ever going to come back. A non-licensed game being pulled is generally a case of the publishing rights reverting back to the developer, however Mindware was shut down in 2011 and it was Aspyr that published the game.

Dungeons of Dredmor Complete --MB-C14ED55F9499647E- Taken by deadflower81
The first part of that boss fight. The above ground section was a bit difficult if you don't know what to do. But I thought the underground one was fairly easy even on Uber.
That's the part I was having trouble with. Too much fire and not enough cover.

Hatoful Boyfriend --MB-DD7FBD70F599F0EE- Taken by ramoisdead. 63 entrants total.
When I was in high school, there was a rumour that one of our French teachers had a fear of pigeons, I never knew if it was true or not.
You realise what this means, right? Track him/her down and gift him/her HB!

Eh, I find quality of life is usually better when you're far away from any contact with teachers of French.
i've got time for one i think

Is it just me or is this bundle dreadful?
Stallion said it and then Jase linked to a neogaf thread where housemarque has some kind of surprise announcement coming on their instagram page or some such.
I now want all the dope xbla/psn games on my pc.

Welp. Dunder finally got Lethal League. It's over for me. 
This soundtrack is great btw. http://klausveen.bandcamp.com/track/klaus-veen-ordinary-days

Eh, it's lots of games that have already been bundled, but if you missed the previous bundles, this is a pretty solid one.
It's their favorite indie games from the last 7 years for their 7 year anniversary, after all.

And these are the best games they could pick? Meh.
Dirt 3 is alright if rally is your thing, the previous two titles are far better though.
For circuit racing, the first GRID is probably my favourite in the series with its semi-realistic approach. GRID Autosport is similar to the first game, but it is filled with content ripped from the last two games and the cockpit view sucks. GRID 2 is pretty nice looking arcade racer, but it doesn't play anything like the other two games in the series. In GRID 2 there is no car settings modification or cockpit mode, but it has a pretty good career mode.
My GRID 2 review. is more indepth about my feelings on the game, but there's a demo so you can give it a try yourself.
I think there's a demo for the first GRID downloadable somewhere on the internet.

Pretty solid bundle if you have none of the games.
Worth it just for Dredmor though.
Well, Dredmor is still the best roguelike ever, and arguably Audiosurf is the best in whatsitsgenrerhythymandstuff.
I hate World of Goo, though.
whaaat
I played and loved world of goo for 13 something hours. It's like video game K*NEX
with some kind of anti-capitalism story or something.
Audiosurf is definitely a rhythm game. Or an intergalactic highway simulator.
World of Goo was a pretty good puzzler back when it was first released.

Decent selection of games, probably a terrible bundle for people that already own them.
No yeah, well, it's an ok game, it's just that I've always thought it was heavily overrated.
also I suck at it, therefore it sucks itself

I am going to make it through this year if it kills me
I just bought Hatoful Boyfriend.
I am part of the problem, aren't I?

I'm actually considering it for just the second Dredmor expansion. It's normally 3 bucks but you can get it for 1...
The only game I own out of those is Amnesia. Dungeons of Dredmor looks cool!
You're part of the solution!
Coooooo~
Considering I already have Dungeons of Dredmor Complete... yup.

Question about Hatoful: I bought it months ago in a Humble Bundle (you might remember), but the assholes who put it together didn't include an English patch. I tried Googling it on any website I could find it on but failed. I don't want to double-dip for a parody VN and I don't care what the Steam price is - I need that English patch. Can someone link to or upload it?

How many hours from now? I'll be work by then but sadly will have to mute the stream
Well, it'll be less than an hour now (I'll be starting in forty minutes, just to get everything rolling and wait for the official start)

Outland coming to PC. Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy.
Also, Shadow Complex hasn't aged well (really plain / dull) and N++ is temporarily exclusive for PS4, so there's that.

I really think being Origin only hurt it.
Really wish EA would go the Uplay route.

This is the first in a series of posts I will be making about playing Steam games on a Surface Pro tablet (Surface Pro 3 i7 to be exact) using just touch controls and/or the pen. If theres enough interest in these writeups, I may make a dedicated thread, but for now Ill just be posting them here. Though this is written with Surface Pro in mind, I suppose it could apply to any comparable tablet that runs Windows. The first game in this series is Pinball FX2. Next up will either be Don't Starve or FTL.
----------
Pinball FX2
+ Runs pretty well out of the box. Only requires minimal changes to the settings to run smoothly.
+ Can be played in portrait mode.
+ Great for casual play.
- The game crashes if you rotate the tablet to a different mode (i.e. portrait to landscape).
- Touchscreen controls do not have a way to nudge the table. This isnt that big a deal when playing casually, but for an advanced player, this is a dealbreaker, as it makes it impossible to bump the table to save a ball or to do things like bounce/nudge passes.
- The launch button (which is normally a keyboard key or controller button) is relegated to a checkbox button at the top right of the screen when applicable. It seems to disappear sometimes on its own, messing up chance to hit it. This is important because sometimes during play you have to press the launch button to initiate actions, some of which are timing-based, which makes it less than ideal. Its also not there to actually launch the ball. You have to swipe to do that. Thats not a big deal though, since youll probably be going for skillshots anyway.
- In-Home Streaming didnt work very well. It didnt register taps, mouse sensitivity way too high, and the stream started to lag and stutter despite my gigabit network. It could be a streaming settings issue, Im not sure. This was my first foray into In-Home Streaming.
* The back of the tablet gets pretty hot when playing (as with most games). It could be table-specific, but I kind of doubt it. Disabling AA seemed to help a little, but that may have just been placebo effect.
* 1920x1200 or 1280x800 is the optimal resolution. Makes best use of screen, with minimal letterboxing. Could always go lower if preferred. None of the resolution options were entirely full screen, due to the tablets aspect ratio. I suppose this could be a minus, but I didnt really find it to be an issue personally.
* Disabling reflections and anti-aliasing is best. AA can be left on if you prefer, but I recommend turning it off for performance-sake.
Overall, I found the game quite playable, though the heat issue made me worry about playing for extended periods of time. Unfortunately, without a way to nudge the table, this probably isnt ideal for serious players, but if youre just playing for the fun of it, I think youll find it quite sufficient.
