My only takeaway from this gif is how ridiculously long it takes them to start running. What game is that?
 
Say what?

Developer: Oops i accidentally put the game on sale.
Random GAFfer: NO YOU DIDN'T DO AN ACCIDENT!

Not that I don't concur but by saying that he put it up 'accidetally' while simultaneously saying he 'might' put the price up (as you've commented on above) it encourages those that have an interest in the game to purchase it to take advantage of the mistake just in case the price is raised (and, if it isn't raised, he can always fall back on 'I decided not to change it until we're further in development'). Likewise, JaseC is commenting that if it was initially put up by mistake then the pricing error could surely be reverted in a quick manner (I cannot comment if this is the case since I am unfamiliar with how this would be done and thus how long it would take). EDIT: With the below reply it certainly provides more clarification as to why one would be skeptical regarding this aspect.

I'm not saying that I think it definitely isn't a mistake, and likewise I'm not saying it certainly is a mistake, but I can see why one would be skeptical of it still being on sale if it was initially a mistake.
 
Just making sure, I knew if you were interested in the X series, than Star Citizen would blow your mind. I see that it already has.

Have you heard of Freespace 2? It actually have a massive modding community, look into Freespace Open, that brings the visual fidelity up to modern standards.

I will surely look into it. Never heard of it before,
What price you think is worth paying for it? Its US$ 9,99 right now.
And thanks for the tip again! :)

For the modding part, I love modding my games, so maybe I can enjoy this game too. Even today I still apply mods to my TES IV Oblivion, Fallout 3 and New Vegas and some Skyrim ones too.

I put a nice cockpit mod in X3 too. And better background textures. It makes the immersion even better.

And already have another X3 install with X3 Rebalance Mod, but I'll play that later, after I finish stock Terran Conflict and Albion Prelude.
 
How much is Rayman Origins? I own it on Wii and have only played the first 2 levels, but if it's as good as some people say then it may be worth having it on Steam.

Valve is quick to correct stuff-ups. For instance, Orion was put up as a Daily at half off by accident and fixed within the hour, replaced by -- drum roll -- Half-Life 2.

Hey guys, 2 questions.

Is Civ 5 BNW still around for 12$? Where?

Are Amazon going to match the price for flash sales too? Considering Rayman Origins.
Anyone able to help? <:)
 
Fantastic. Started Dark Souls, logged in with my Live account and need to make an update but I get an error message every time and therefore now can't play. I guess what people say about GFWL is true...

You can't spell "god-awful" without G, F, W and L! :p
 
Any new cards today?

I really hope publishers use this as a means of pushing impulse buys for their older titles. It takes them no effort to implement.
