Support NeoGAF

[More_Badass]

Yeah. They're hit or miss.

How are Condemned Heroes and Vietnam?

 

[Atraveller]

Sounds like almost every modern military shooter this gen, unfortunately.

fixed.

 

[DaBoss]

Dark Souls is going to be a daily? Why is Paypal taking forever to get my money transfer?

They don't want you to die.

 

[e36wheelman]

I like the Vietnam one, but as someone stated they are hit or miss (and incredibly difficult).

Really? I hated Vietnam and Condemned. The first one and Red Tide were my favorites.

How are Condemned Heroes and Vietnam?

Pass on them unless you're a die hard tactical RTS fan. Even then it's a half-hearted recommendation.

Enhanced Steam can only display what Valve thinks you own. If Valve believes you own Trine 2 complete, Enhanced Steam will highlight it.

Hey jshackles, thanks again for this great extension. I wanted to ask about something though since I seem to be having a minor glitch, though it's possible the problem is on my end. On some store pages, it doesn't seem to highlight DLC I own. For example, on the Sleeping Dogs DLC page, nothing is highlighted, but on the main game page, in the expandable DLC list, the items I own and wish for are highlighted. Is there something wrong on my end? Just a minor problem, overall the extension is incredibly helpful.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Today's sales are kinda eh. Here's hoping for some nice flash sales.

 

[antitrop]

I would also say The Darkness, but nobody played that for its shooting mechanics anyway.

I know somewhere on NeoGAF I've said before that The Darkness is one of the most noteworthy and unique FPS of the generation.

Starbreeze got something extremely right there that wasn't captured in the Digital Extremes sequel.

 

[JaseC]

tl;dr get chrome Jase!

I was using Chrome for a short while, but couldn't stand Google's insistence on having automatic suggestions split between search terms and history items. That said, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to have it installed for the express purpose of browsing the store.

 

[FACE]

Oh. I need one.

Was it you that needed a Tomb Raider card to complete the collection?

 

[Dusk Golem]

Today's sales are kinda eh. Here's hoping for some nice flash sales.

"I hope you like repeats!~"

 

[DukeBobby]

The Walking Dead won. What a surprise.

 

[Sajjaja]

Was it you that needed a Tomb Raider card to complete the collection?

No.

 

[antitrop]

The Walking Dead won. What a surprise.

Of course it did.

Y'all got robbed from 50% off one of the best Action RPGs since Diablo II.

 

[catabarez]

I was using Chrome for a short while, but couldn't stand Google's insistence on having automatic suggestions split between search terms and history items. That said, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to have it installed for the express purpose of browsing the store.

Isn't there a way to fix that?

 

[Prophane33]

Really? I hated Vietnam and Condemned. The first one and Red Tide were my favorites.

I think it's partially because I'm a huge Vietnam War buff.

Edit: Definitely check out the first one, if any.

 

[Polioliolio]

Can't.. look.. at steam sale spoilers.

Why do ya guys dooo thaaayaat.

 

[filipe]

I think you can turn that off.

 

[Retrofluxed]

Damn, I was really hoping for Van Helsing.

 

[jph139]

Picked up the original Half-Life and decided to go with Half-Life 1 Complete just for the hell of it (since it was like a buck more). Looking forward to the main game but how are the others - Opposing Force and Blue Shift? Any order I should play them in?

 

[davidsaurus]

Is Civilization 5 any good for someone who has never played one of the previous games?

I've read some reviews but they are all from nearly 3 years ago so I dont know how much the game may have changed with patches, etc.

I bought the Gold version just cause I figured I might as well since you get so much extra stuff, can't beat all that for 12 dollars!

Yes, it's the easiest one to get into out of the lot. No previous experience needed, probably preferential if anything. Also, picking up the gold version was a solid choice.

HA I've never even seen that DLC page before - how do you get to it from the store?

I can add those nodes to things to be highlighted in a future version.

 

[SmarterUnconscious]

Reminder

1. chronomac
2. Grief.exe
3. bakeray
4. Salsa

You guys have a twitch stream or something set up so the rest of us can watch?

 

[electricpirate]

I love Dark Souls, but I really can't justify the double dip.

EVERYONE ELSE SHOULD BUY IT THOUGH .

 

[Dusk Golem]

I think the Steam votes continue to show that people will commonly vote for what has name value without doing any research. I mean, I know I shouldn't be surprised, but sometimes it does. In this case it didn't, but it does sadden me when a game that goes on sale a lot overtakes a game that some may want that doesn't have its individual sale.

 

[Prophane33]

liezryou traded me a bunch of TF2 keys for Euro Truck Sim. Thanks a ton.


I think I'm going to get addicted to the Truck Sim. Just completed my first job and backing that cargo into the loading dock was the most intense and stressful gaming experience I've had in awhile. Fuckin awesome! Graphics are pretty good too.

I'm glad I'm not the only one singing the praises of this game. I really wish people would stop comparing it to things like Farming Simulator. Outside of the title they are completely different beasts. I love listening to the radio stations from "weird' European countries.

Can't.. look.. at steam sale spoilers.

Why do ya guys dooo thaaayaat.

It's posted on the official Steam site under News.

 

[JaseC]

Very weird. It should work with Firefox 17 and above.

I use Waterfox and it works just fine for me.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Up next, the Community chose... WALKING DEAD

Fuck shit fuck FUCK FUCK FUCK

STOP VOTING FOR SHIT THAT WAS ALREADY ON SALE AND MIGHT COME BACK FOR FLASH SALES GOD DAMN IT

 

[mclem]

Was it you that needed a Tomb Raider card to complete the collection?

That was me and I'm not worrying about it until the weekend. Plenty of time for drops 'til then, don't have to inconvenience others.

 

[MikeDown]

You guys have a twitch stream or something set up so the rest of us can watch?

Or maybe put it on youtube? Steam Gaf as a YT channel doesn't it? Cause I will be out of the house at 4PST and I'm also leaving the patio door unlocked, so on one break in while I'm gone.

 

[DukeBobby]

Starbreeze got something extremely right there that wasn't captured in the Digital Extremes sequel.

Yep.

It's a shame Starbreeze couldn't capture that same magic with Syndicate.

One of my most disappointing games of this generation.

 

[GK86]

The community has a short term memory on what has already been on sale a billion times before.

 

[Cth]

Name brand recognition.

Every time.



EDIT:
People just like voting. Even if they do remember what was on sale, they're going to vote cause they like to push buttons. At least this time around they get a point towards another card. Prior years, they had no excuse

 

[phantomspiker]

Max Payne 3 is horrifically bad on Hard. It's just your average run of the mill cover based shooter with terrible checkpoint saving.

Think I'm gunna knock it down to normal.

 

[JaseC]

HA I've never even seen that DLC page before - how do you get to it from the store?

I can add those nodes to things to be highlighted in a future version.

View the page of a particular piece of DLC and then click on the "Downloadable Content" breadcrumb.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Can't.. look.. at steam sale spoilers.

Wait.. spoilers? For a sale? You're saying these are spoilers. Spoilers?

 

[mclem]

Of the games that have been up for a community vote thus far, which ones haven't then gone on to be either a daily or a flash sale?

 

[antitrop]

The community has a short term memory on what has already been on sale a billion times before.

I think it's more that the percentage is higher, the price is lower, and nobody has any idea wtf Van Helsing is.

It had no chance, even though it clearly should have won.

 

[shaowebb]

Woo! Just got gifted a copy of Rogue Legacy by a friend! Got him a Mark of the Ninja from his wishlist in return. That was my big want and now I'm set. Hurray!

 

[ashecitism]

Very weird. It should work with Firefox 17 and above.

I use Waterfox and it works just fine for me.

yeah sorry, it was noscript.

/facepalm

still doesn't work in PM tho, but works in WF. It's great.

 

[Atraveller]

I wonder if Gunpoint would be a flash deal.

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

Still not done idling all the games that got cards yesterday

 

[Stone Ocean]

Wait.. spoilers? For a sale? You're saying these are spoilers. Spoilers?

What, you telling me you don't wait giddy with excitement when it's half an hour before the new dailies?

 

[TokiDoki]

I love Dark Souls, but I really can't justify the double dip.

EVERYONE ELSE SHOULD BUY IT THOUGH .

I already double dipped after buying full priced 360 version and finished it , and then grabbing this on steam for $7.49 . Worth every penny .

Anyway , TWD won by a landslide zzzzz , I thought this had been on sales gazilion times before .

 

[DukeBobby]

Max Payne 3 is horrifically bad on Hard. It's just your average run of the mill cover based shooter with terrible checkpoint saving.

Ah, that's where you're going wrong.

 

[FACE]

That was me and I'm not worrying about it until the weekend. Plenty of time for drops 'til then, don't have to inconvenience others.

I can give you my TR card if you want, I have no use for it.

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

Please let Dark Souls get cards! ...Durante?

 

[JaseC]

Fuck shit fuck FUCK FUCK FUCK

STOP VOTING FOR SHIT THAT WAS ALREADY ON SALE AND MIGHT COME BACK FOR FLASH SALES GOD DAMN IT

I'm disappointed, though not surprised.

 

[antitrop]

Name brand recognition.

Every time.

I think Van Helsing being attached to that strange branding hurts the game more than it helps it.

You don't actually play as Van Helsing, it has nothing to do with Hugh Jackman, you play as Van Helsing's son and it's not like a beat-em-up platformer or something...

It's about getting phat loot, not killing Dracula.

 

[A Human Becoming]

A billion times yes

I'm in a similar position: own the Orange Box on 360. Contemplating buying the complete Half-Life package. How is the content besides Episode 1 and 2? I already own the original Half-Life.

 

[Cth]

Woo! Just got gifted a copy of Rogue Legacy by a friend! Got him a Mark of the Ninja from his wishlist in return. That was my big want and now I'm set. Hurray!

Congrats! Does he need another friend?
