It's pretty much a given. Need to pick up all the Dishonored DLC (first game that made me want to buy DLC after I had finished it)
Yes.

PC is the way to go even without mods. A lot of the bugs have been fixed since its original launch. NV is arguably superior to FO3, but similar in that they used the same engine obviously, the gameplay and writing is improved imo

New Vegas fully patched is as stable as FO3 ever was for me.

It's monday and some people are working. ( I am, kind of... )
No it's not, of course it's better but it's not a necessity.
And you should just give the game a 2nd try, the beginning may be weird but it will fast be more understandable.
I'm working, it doesn't stop me from posting in here, though!

Every time I play new vegas, I have this problem where the tracks played on the radio 'glitch' from time to time.. kinda like bad mp3 squishing..
Any solution for that? Cause I do like the songs.

USA is sleeping, Europe at work (it's Monday after all) and new deals are 6 hours away.
I am! Civ V, and I'm really enjoying it... Took me 2 year to start playing this, sometimes I'm just embarrased of myself. I love grand strategy games, why the hell took so long?

This is where being a grad student comes in handy.

Dishonored was up for a community choice so that one for sure, and Deus Ex should be but no guarantee.

They don't.
You can either buy as gift, or add to library from steam.
Most other sites, and humble bundles, will give keys.
From other stores like Amazon, GreenManGaming, GamersGate, GameFy etc.

For sending to modbot? I just gift it to my email, paste the URL to the modbot, cutting off the "?" and everything after it. But I believe you can just right click and show CD key or something
E: May have misunderstood your question lol
Although common, there's no guarantee a Community's Choice item will return later. For example, when Primordia lost its Community's Choice poll during last year's Winter Sale, it faded back into the general discount bowels of the sale and didn't rear its head again.
You're killing me man, don't let my dreams of cheaper KOTOR II and Dishonored be crushed.
People handing out Steam gifts via ModBot aren't giving away keys per se:
New vegas runs fairly well on the pc, much better than the consoles.The game is locked at 30 fps, I think. But there was a mod that allowed the game to run at 60 fps so it's definitely a great choice.

They buy direct from third party retailers like GreenManGaming, GamersGate, Amazon.com, Nuuvem, etc. Or they buy Indie Bundles that include activation codes for the games in the bundles, same thing for buying direct from the developer. Activation codes are the best and easiest way for them to sell games on Valve's Steam service, and Valve provides FREE codes to the developers/publishers to give to third party retailers to sell, or sell direct themselves.
Dishonored will 99,99% sure be a daily.

I find it very surprising that no other key site is competing with steam in any meaningful way.
GMG's sale was terrible.
Gamersgate as well.
Amazon had some good deals, but most of the games are old...
Winter sale there were some insane deals on other site, I remember.

Yeah, "AAA" titles such as Dishonored and Deus Ex: HR are all but assured to see a deeper discount at some point during the sale.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Should I buy Nazi Zombie Army?
I think that's because modbot is broken, I just tried sending it something to do a giveaway. Stump were art thou?
As long as you don't expect it to be a sniping game, go for it.

I have about 9 hours into Rogue Legacy, and I'm absolutely loving it. I think the way it's "bite-sized" helps to play a little at a time, and I often find myself saying one more over and over.
That's the Sniper Elite thing right? What I have seen of it looked pretty bad. I liked Sniper elite V2 but that thing seemed to emphasize everything but sniping.

Im not sure if Valley is the new one, but during the Shootmania Storm Flashdeal, all other Games were also discounted.

It's fun! But it's more for short bursts of satisfying that itchy trigger finger. It's essentially similar to CoD's zombie mode put into a full fledged game. It's better in MP where you work together to defend against waves. It's amusing for what it is but not significantly deep.

I actually had Steam for years (since the release of Half-Life 2) but this Summer Sale finally made me use it. I already have like 35 games haha.
I have one question: I have like 40 boxed PC-games. There's no way I can get them in Steam, right? Or does it depend on the title? For instance, I have the rollercoaster tycoon 3 and half-life 2 games and expansions on disk, but I see they are in the Steam store and I think it's way easier to have them there. Also feels 'better' to have the entire collection in once place (aka steam). And I guess stuff like the new SimCity and Battlefield 3 (which I have on disc) are also not on Steam thanks to EA's Origin? Thanks in advance for the answers!
I am a big console gamer by the way, always have all consoles, but I guess Steam is finally making me try out PC-gaming. I have a high spec PC I bought two years ago that can handle almost all games though, so it is a shame I didn't use it earlier!

Depends on the title, some use steamworks and thus you can use their cd-key to redeem the game on steam.

It is a great port. I bought and played through it earlier this year using a Xbox 360 gamepad. It was an excellent experience, and this is coming from someone who played through both Jet Set Radio and Jet Grind Radio for the Dreamcast.
It depands on the title. Newer games(this gen mostly) require steam, while the oldies don't support it.
If a retail game redeems on Steam, you'll find a steam key inside. If no key, it doesn't.
