I guess THAT cd key site is ok to post.
also, that avatar is...very nice.
Yeah, I have actually posted there but the thread was DOA.
Well, there is the BST thread, but like I said I prefer to do business with Steamgaffers that I know. Not to mention that I got some shady people adding me after posting there.
From now on, I won't be around much or at all so thankfully you won't have to put up with my spam anymore
There is a lot of good in the B/S/T thread, but there is a LOT of sketchy that goes on as well. I try to keep my dealings strictly with SteamGAFfers to avoid as many issues as possible.

Looks like Mind Zero was greenlit pretty quickly, they didn't have to wait for the next batch of titles to get through.
Sure, I'm starting it now.
I also played some Gunpoint. That game seems really, really neat. I can see myself having a lot of fun with that.
Quick edit: Ah, FEAR crashed. Hmm.

Is Nuuvem restricted to South America?
There is no 'next batch' anymore.
Seems Valve will slow drip releases until Greenlight is killed.
No, but always check on SteamDB if the game you want to buy is restricted in some ways.

I thought greenlight was going to be killed ages ago tho. Why is it still around?
Nope, you can buy games from there even. There are some games that cannot be bought outside of South America, but use HOLA Unblocker to go around the block
You may need to supply a BR-based address but other than that only certain products are restricted to BR IPs, however even then you can simply use a VPN to add them to your cart. I purchased FM2014 that way.
I still don't know how to do that :/ When I'm on a game's page what should I be looking for?

I've bought from them with my regular European address, that's for games that aren't restricted to brazilian IPs.
Just visit the store page of the region using ?cc=xx, where xx is your desired country code. It's impossible to miss the region-lock notices.

Oh, I didn't see any word on that so I thought it was just taking longer than normal.
It's been a nice 2 year run, I even had my Anime Greenlight Collection in the #4~14 rank for all this time. Not that it really mattered.
I played the Demo/Shareware version of that game longer than any other Racing game before or after!You can't fool me, this is Wacky Wheels with a different UI.
Even then, it's not always certain, as there games with some available subs that are not region locked. Like CoD Ghosts. There's a region locking notice on the main Ghosts page, but you buy the Gold edition there and it's region free.
I know it's a bit off topic, but since the M&Ms promotion was so prevalent here I figure I'll ask. Has anyone with Comcast gotten any of their cable credit? I know Morningbus got all of his on Verizon but it's been a while now and I haven't seen anything show up for me and was wondering if anyone else had.
As have I, about a dozen times, but the last time I tried to add something to my cart I was asked to supply a BR address, and I'm not the only one (the example the OP gives, Strike Suit Zero, is not region-locked).
Original Sin is another example (standard ed. is region free but the CE is not), however what I said is fine as a general rule as they're outliers.

You're confusing the news out of dev days with the schedule. The ETA of the new system has always been late this year or early next. I'm leaning towards the former myself as it'd explain why Valve has just been hand-picking a few things every week or two instead of announcing another batch.

I dont understand why Ubisoft thought its good to implement some "F2P"-Elements into their game. I want to 100% Assassins Creed Black Flag, but for one of the Abstergo-Challenges you need to unlock every location for your fleet.
Good that the first ones take maybe 30 minutes to 1 hour in realtime but now it seems every location needs at least 8-10 hours in realtime to finish...

Your Uplay friends can significantly speed up the process. I agree, though, that it's a shining example of awful "social" integration.

Anyone up for The Banner Saga 4-Pack?
That's cool. Thanks a bunch.

Haha, I'd help you myself but I no longer have the game installed.

Just preparing everyone for the eventual Unity "social" nightmare.
Chairmanchuck

Its okay. I just thought "Cool. I can finish this game today it seems.", then checked the Abstergo Challenges what else to do and... yeah. Saw there is one challenge where I have to unlock all fleet routes...
I remember in AC3 (or was it one of the other ones?) you could at least send more assassins to a location to speed up the process. I mean 2-3 hours would also be okay, but 8-10 is far too much alone...
Exactly the same for me. I should try and track down a copy for nostalgia's sake
I was similarly cynical, especially after Watch Dogs and it having MP stuff tied into the overall completion figure, but the only social element to Unity that has been revealed thus far is the co-op missions, which can be played solo. Things are looking up!
Freedom = $1.05

Yeah, but then you get the weird feeling that those missions were designed with coop in mind and it all feels off. It's the thing that happened to me with SM3DW, where while it was a good game, you could tell that areas were made really broad and certain sections made less challenging because they needed it to work for 4 players.

Besides that I really like Black Flag, but after playing who knows how much AC Games the formula gets kinda stale.
I mean they introduce new small ideas every game, but the core Gameplay itself is still the same. But I have to applaud Ubisoft for their good optimization. I play it on the highest settings in 1080p and have 60fps without any dips on an old AMD 6870 and it looks fantastic.
On the other hand DR3 looks horrible if you change every setting to middle and it looks awful and still runs like crap...

Quick impressions for Audiosurf.
"Video tutorial? Screw that."
"I have no idea what I'm doing."
"Okay video tutorial, show me what you've got. Uh huh...okay...oh! Okay, let's go back to the game."
"...I have no idea what I'm doing."

It's not entirely awful once you max out your fleet numbers with good ships as you can then do a handful of locations at the same time.
I'm just glad that solo play is an option at all. I was expecting the worst after Watch Dogs.
Audiosurf is a game best played drunk with a bunch of friends. Then not knowing what you are doing is actually a perk.

I wouldn't go that far but yeah, played the hell out of it, it was so much fun, still some of the most fun I've had with a game.
Chairmanchuck
Member
Yeah. I am doing it like that right now, but to unlock the new locations I still have to send my ships to do the 8-10 hour missions.

PayDay 2 can be played solo as well, that doesn't mean it's a good experience. Color me hesitant.

Sonic 3 & Knuckles is 99p on GMG. How do I tell if I have this already? Oh, I figured it out, it's in the SEGA Genesis & Mega Drive classics in the DLC section of the properties. I don't have it. I should get it, I guess.
