or maybe you should elaborate more?

When your only complaint is car control how else do you expect people to react? It's an open world action game. If Sleeping Dogs was a racing game, shitty car controls would be a perfectly legitimate complaint.

What you just did was like saying NBA 2K sucks because it doesn't properly simulate an NBA players lifestyle
C'mon dude, that's not a proper analogy and you know it. NBA 2K doesn't feature life outside the courts. Sleeping Dogs, from what I can understand (haven't played it yet), features a lot of driving. Why isn't that a valid complaint?

If that video doesn't make you laugh you have no soul.

Then I am but a husk, sitting in my room posting on my computer. Part of my disdain stems from my malign attitude towards Skrillex. I enjoy electronic music, but his (especially anything off the Bangarang EP) just kills my ears.

I have now sunk six hours into Reus, this is definitely a neat game. If I can get 15 hours out of it I will be quite content, but it appears there are a lot of unlockables that will keep me playing it for longer.
 
I hope everyone has bought Deus Ex Human Revolution + The Missing Link and Dishonored if they don't own them already. They are excellent.

someone on my friendslist from GAF doesnt have it yet. (shows it as on his wishlist)

I'd gift it to him but he's so popular I'm sure it's been gifted to him already and it awaiting to be added to his library.

upon further inspection with only 8 friends, I'll send that gift his way (Deus Ex : HR). He asked for this.

Not really the console's fault, PS3 has supported high quality cutscenes(and if anything uses them much more often than PC games) since day 1 and they could easily compress them with more care for the 360. Companies just don't put any effort into it.
CG cutscenes is such an odd and out-of-date solution altogether. They really couldn't do in-engine cutscenes (pre-rendered at least) so the character models and environments could stay consistent?

On top of everything, the CG didn't even look good. It was terribly done regardless of resolution. lol

Okay, I need some help.I bought You Need a Budget and I really like it but apparently everytime I start it up it lets my Steam friends know I'm using it, which is kind of embarrassing. Any way of disabling this so that it let's them know games I'm playing but NOT You Need a Budget?

I posted a solution to this in a previous Sale thread.

Look in the download files for YNAB.
You should see a text file containing the serial key
Download YNAB from the YNAB website
Install YNAB to a different location from the Steam version
Register new version of YNAB with the serial key in the Steam download

Enjoy anonymous budgeting!

Giving away these two games. Do I have to do a contest or can I just post the Modbot message here? Sorry for asking. I wasn't really following the past two threads.
I enjoyed Killing floor so much especially with friends/others and I thought that it deserved some attention.

How is everyone's cash count so far?

I personally spent $36.30 so far for Dust Elysian Tale, Deus Ex HR, Civ 5 Gold, Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion, and Tomb Raider Anniversary, Legend, and Underworld.

When I realize how much value I got for a meager $35~ dollars, assuming I like each and every one of those games, especially compared to how a lot of games cost $60 for 10 or so hours of content, God damn, this is the true moment of clarity of Steam sales.

So it looks like the trading card market is crashing. I'm only getting dimes for my stuff now, if that. I guess I should savor the free games I've gotten so far. If and when Rogue Legacy goes on sale, I'll be using real cash. And I think it'll be the end of the sale for me.
 
Hey guys, I'm having trouble...I want to buy the orange box but I currently live in Korea and none of the payment options work for me. Can anyone help me? I could PayPal you $ and see if it works....pm me :)

About $26 so far

Anyone want to trade Killing Floor cards? I have extra Clot and Scrake cards.

Looking for other Killing Floor cards.

I posted this in the trading card thread as well, but this one is more active.

Do you want us monkeys dance for your pleasure, or do you just want to give them to someone and be done with it?

You can just do the ModBot thing, or Ingueferroque and I can fight to the death for it...

Wow, Germans are really screwed. It wasn't enough with giving them censored games, now they also added Tages on top of that!

Speaking of censored games. I bought Max Payne 3 from the store because I still had card money only to discover that it's actually censored in Germany without a notice on store page (usually there is one).

Feels really bad.

Still tempted by Reus today, wish I was at home getting cards, then I might be easily convinced by having free steam $ to buy it with.

I should get around to doing my tax return like JaseC, then I might feel like I have some free cash.

Well, I can understand that, but it's meant to be ironically humorous and parodical.

Seriously? People care that others in their friends list will see them using budget software?

Don't worry about what others think guys, do what you want.

I didn't care about my friends seeing just the fact that it would take longer to load while I waited for Steam to connect and then load YNAB

These new cards started out being worth 14 cents and are now under 10. Card money is officially over. May as well actually trade them for badges now. I think I'll go for RE6 badges.
