I have no interest on any of the games of the vote, so I give my vote to GAF.
Tell me, which game is worth it?

best NFS game since Most Wanted.
I saw the description, I just didn't know about the all new costumes and vehicles, if that had anything to do with the other dlc.
I think I remember hearing earlier in the thread that Anno 2070 was hamstrung by Uplay's always-online bullshit. Is this true? I don't want to vote for it if so.
I remember that horribly shitty screenshot Tesseract (?) posted of CitiesXL. Tempted to vote for SC4...

Voted for Simcity 4 too. 
Suffice it to say that THQ has a misguided idea of a Season Pass.

I don't have the numbers, so I'm just talking out of my butt here. But there really does seem to be a pretty big set of games that need to push past this $5 floor. The Bioshocks seem like an example of this. When they've been on sale for that $5 like three or four times over a couple of years I'd think that most of the folks who want to jump in on that price have already done so. No doubt some folks are still buying them at $5, but I feel like they would pick up more than double the number of buyers (thus making more total revenue) with a drop to $2.50 or even $3.75 just to get under that $5 barrier.

Just plug your controller into your PC and it controls the same. If you want, run a HDMI cable from your PC to your tv and play it there. I see no reason to play games on a console anymore when they are multiplatform really.
Thanks for all your help. I would have just assumed that season pass would be all the dlc for saints row 3 that has come out or will come out in the future.

The community voting during the sale doesn't make me hopeful for Steam Greenlight.
I just played half life with my new PC. I have never get past the intro previously because of how choppy everything is and I refused to lower the graphic quality. This is pretty much my first time.
To sum up my thoughts. OMG. Holy mother of God. The part of the waterway with the heli. OMG.

You're correct in thinking so -- I mean, that's been the idea behind the concept -- but, as they say, "desperate times call for desperate measures", and THQ being in the position its in threw preconceptions out the window... because desperation tends to breed stupidity.

Seriously, can anyone with the mac client help me? Where in the world is the steam application support folder. Everything says in finder hold option and hit go and then go to library, and that should take you to the system library where steam's files are located, but it's not there at all.

I have a special place in my heart for Carbon.
You'll have to forgive Capcom; it doesn't quite understand Steam sales.

I know the feeling bro, I was in that situation some months ago until I got the cdkey for SR3 from Amazon and I'm glad I did it. you can still use your 360 controller (if you have the wireless adapter) while you can enjoy the glorious of hi-res graphics
ah I almost forgot, it runs amazingly well

Should I get NFSHP if I enjoyed but didn't necessarily love Burnout Paradise (I prefer the earlier, non-open-world games)?
You must not have many things on your wishlist heh. Only 3 out of 33 on mine have no price and those three are from games with no specific release date.

Still waiting on sales for Lost Planet (super old game), Lost Planet 2 and other Capcom titles, wont happen though, they went to the Activision school of pricing.
the DLC has been 75 percent each time Saints row has come up for daily,community and flash sale.

No, I have 30+ as well, and they were all showing yesterday. I will keep reloading, as it sounds like it may be a Steam server issue.

I have 85 games in my wishlist and none of them are showing prices for some reason. Gotta be some kind of glitch.
Season Pass and the shark weapon DLC is the most common recommendation.
Edit: Haha, oops, I misread your post.

Steam's Mac support sucks. The Library in your user folder is hidden by default now since the last OS release.
Here's a guide on how to get it to re-appear (safe), all it takes is the Terminal application.

They're missing out on a boatload more sales.
Anno was already on sale for 2 full days
