How can they just get rid of hiding information like this?

They didn't even switch to a new registry entry, they just straight up changed the name and deleted the metacritic.

 

[jshackles]

I'm finally Steam level 20 so I can have the game collector showcase on my profile.

Featured game: Bad Rats. Displayed with pride.

 

[sprinkles]

Cannot vote for Unreal in Germany.

 

[DukeBobby]

Sweet, found my unused XCOM key.

 

[Prophane33]

If UT3 wins and people actually buy it, add me on steam so we can get some multi going! Had it forever but haven't really played it much.

 

[Ka1ciuM]

She is 11.

He lol, Steam cards are buggy at the moment so I hope the they fix it.

 

[davidsaurus]

Sorry to be an ass, quoting for new page this first and last time.

http://steamcommunity.com/id/davidsaurus add me

 

[Fireblend]

Oh. This is ridiculous. XCOM gets to be a daily and still it doesn't get cards? Firaxis, wtf. Why does it like to pretend their GOTY 2012 doesn't exist?

 

[rybrad]

Sounds like Iron Brigade, might still buy for the sp.

It is not bad in singeplayer, just don't expect to be blown away. I am a pretty big fan of ARPG so I try most of them out and I would say Van Helsing is average. You have a much smaller set of skills to work with (2-4 usually) and the main mechanic is powering up those skills with different modifiers. The main problem is to use the modifiers you have to have rage which you generally only get from killing enemies so boss fights are pretty dry and tedious.

If you are an ARPG fan and don't mind using the same small subset skills the whole game then I think the setting is interesting enough to take a look. That being said, if someone was considering getting this instead of Torchlight 2, that would be a monumental mistake.

 

[Volotaire]

Haven't played UT3 multiplayer for a long time.

 

[JaseC]

vote for it so we maybe get a new game

Ha, good one!

 

[EXGN]

I somehow still haven't bought XCom yet so good day for me. FC3 a good deal, or can you find it elsewhere for cheaper?

 

[I H8 Memes]

If anybody needs help buying from the U.S. Steam store just let me know.

Publishers can choose whether they want the Metacritic displayed.

 

[kewlmyc]

Far Cry 3 is only 40% off. How sad.....

Might bite later though.

 

[nexen]

Alright GAF you have my vote..

Which is it?

I voted for CS:GO because I kind of regret passing it up before.

What do you need I think I have some extras? I already have the badge.

Need: Tomb Raider and Prison Architect
Have: Dead Island Riptide, Reus, and Kerbal Space Program

 

[Martian]

I can't really get over the fact that I bought CoD:Warchest + World at War last winter for 25 euros combined.

what the hell: Did Activision think: ''Hey, those suckers bought those ancient games for such low prices, how about we increase the fuck out of those prices to get more money from games that are so old, they were launch titles for the Xbox''

Ridiculous, and yes, I am pissed

 

[kurtrussell]

I'm thinking about going in for Infestation Survivor Stories.

 

[RazorbackDB]

magicka is getting his own pvp game btw

wizardwars.com

looks like they are adding some moba elements and balancing the pvp.

 

[Copons]

Am sitting on a Dark Souls gift because I can't figure out this fucking Modbot system. The OP is confusing me. Do i need to send a PM to modbot with my "receive your gift" link first, and then keys are sent to me so I can write the "register" PM to modbot? Or does the "receive your gift" link get entered in the "register" PM in place of the keys? God damn I feel stupid right now. This is what I get for doing this for the first time while at work.

Or, if you want, you could just send it over here...

 

[chugen]

I'm thinking about going in for Infestation Survivor Stories.

same, now that i have bad rats i dont give a fuck

 

[Stimpack]

I voted for Arma II, because I've decided I want to stare at it again for a few hours before deciding it's best not to buy it.

Also I'm no longer a junior member! Woohoo!

 

[Razorskin]

In your extension you should put a big red banner on the Infestation page saying "THIS IS WARZ DONT BUY"

 

[Lucifon]

Unreal Tournament 3.

CS:GO all the way. I have a couple of buddies who missed out on the last deal. Surprised how fun that game is. After 6 years with the amount of super cheap Unreal deals there's been in the past few years most of the world should own that game by now.

So GAF what's the consensus on Risen 2? I enjoyed the first, heard some negative things about the 2nd but that's a super cheap price...

 

[Aaron]

Anyone else think that with the dailies / flashes / community votes we've seen all the deals we're going to see? The repeats are becoming more and more common like the tail end of the last big sale.

 

[DocSeuss]

Alright GAF you have my vote..

Which is it?

What do you need I think I have some extras? I already have the badge.

Unreal or ARMA.

GO's a Valve game; it's been on deal, and it'll go on a deal again. There's never any point voting for Valve games.

Then again, voting is weird. Still scratching my head trying to figure out how Hitman: Absolution wins over Dishonored (unless people already have one and not the other), and how Bastion beats out its competition (More than 70 friends on my friendslist own it, despite the fact that it's got pretty boring gameplay and is really only worth it for the sound/narrative).

This is a Humble Bundle but worth a post in here. Fifteen Spiderweb RPGs, all with Steam keys:

https://www.humblebundle.com/weekly

There are only 15 mins left so if you want it, better jump on it quickly. Fun turn-based combat, good character writing, inventive world-building, and great exploration are what these games are generally known for. What usually turns people off are the low-fidelity visuals, but if you can get past that, it's well-worth the experience.

 

[Volotaire]

same, now that i have bad rats i dont give a fuck

I'd read up on the developers and then thing again about giving them money.

 

[jim2point0]

As I said, I love this game. Very difficult to beat. Very rewarding though when you do. Such is the case with Rogue-likes (or fake rogue-likes, whatever)

- If you won a game from ModBot in the last day, you are not eligible for this giveaway.
- This giveaway has a manual blocklist. The giver has identified members who abuse giveaways and restricted them from participating.

Oh, sorry my extra's are dead island and chivalry.

Also I have fond memories of UT99 so I voted UT.

 

[Taco_Human]

Did anyone buy any gifts of Rage? :/

 

[nexen]

Deal. Add me on steam: nexen

1. PM ModBot

title: "register"​

body: "Dark Souls: YOU-RKE-YHE-RE!"​

2. ModBot replies to you

3. Post the PM you received from ModBot in the thread.

 

[PandaPedinte]

same, now that i have bad rats i dont give a fuck

Is owning Bad Rats a shame fot your Steam account?

 

[Martian]

Isn't there a reverse Greenlight?

Like instead of voting games into Steam, we vote Infestation out of Steam

I had honestly thought about doing this. However, Enhanced Steam is just an informational tool. If someone wants to spend money on this garbage, they can use Enhanced Steam to at least make sure they're buying it at the lowest possible price.

Although I'm looking into adding Metacritic scores (and user scores) to games on Steam that don't already have them listed (like this one).

Or if you have a gift, you send teh gifting email to yourself, and instead of the key, give modbot the link.

Hope the new weekly will be better, not much of a fan of isometric rpgs.

True.

 

[Groggy]

I'm disappointed that there haven't been any good deals from Capcom. I've got Half-Life 2: Episode One, if anyone wants to trade a game for it PM me.

Slight correction: Avernum: The First Trilogy isn't on Steam.

 

[drizzle]

What are the X-Com DLCs and which ones are worth it?

 

[Divius]

Downloading a game is very slow atm. Related to server traffic or is this on my end?
