A warning for those who bought Driver San Francisco: After about an hour of playtime, the framerate begins to tank. Apparently, there's a memory leak that hasn't been fixed. First, the lack of HDR and now this. I, uh, don't think this game was a very good port. But hey, at least it was cheap! ...Right?

I've never encountered a problem like this with it...

I bought some Olympic themed condoms this week and told my partner I was going to wear Gold.

She said I should wear Silver and come second for a change.

I don't want the code, I just wanted to make someone laugh

Just buy it, leave it in your gifts. That way if you don't want it later you can always trade or something. Better to have the option than to regret and wonder when it'll be available again.

Wait for the last day. You never know if ARMA II: CO will be a daily deal or not so why waste money? Unless you absolutely need it right now just wait and see.

I keep having a problem where every 30 seconds or so it would stall for like 2-3 seconds. I would guess the game is loading or something. Everything runs great until that happens.

Bad enough that I won't play it again until I can fix it.

You've already come this far, you can wait a few days with the rest of us to be disappointed when it doesn't become a daily, flash or community deal.

Uhh, I mean, believe. It'll be tomorrow.

Well Driver SF is basically unplayable because it's freezing every 30 seconds-1 minute. Guess that's what I get for buying an Ubisoft game.

Still looking for haikus for Toki Tori, RUSH, and a Humble Frozenbyte Bundle (which contains 4 games)

The contest is almost over, and I'm starting to judge now - Get your entries in, and if you submit a haiku for any of the above games, you'll probably win!

Alright people, I got about 3 (extra) bucks left in my Steam wallet gifting away a free 2.49 game....who's up for contest #3?

Just name all the game references you see, it's simple

RULES: PM me the list of games, DO NOT, DO NOT post in this thread!

Note: If a game is referenced from a series, and it's not clear which one of the instalments it is from that specific series, then and only then you can just say the name of the series.

but if its very clear which sequel is it from, then you have to give the exact name of the game.

Example: If you see a crowbar, you can just say Half Life
But if you see Alyx, you have to say Half Life 2 Ep1 & Ep2

Here's your first hint: there are at least 7 games referenced, winner gets a 2.49 game of his/her choice, good luck.

PS: Excuse my shitty sketch, this is done for fun, not for artistic credibility.

Not entering since I can only maybe get 4/7, just thought the sketch was really cute.

Someone should make a little sketch/art-related contest!

For those having trouble with Driver:SF freezing

Apparently people on the Steam forums are saying that this is due to Ubi's server being overloaded, users are reporting that the game runs fine in offline mode or if you block the game by creating a firewall exception.

I'm going to try it now and I'll report back.

Oh man, I have $22.86 left. If Gods & Kings won't be on sale for less than $15, I'm gonna grab the LucasArts Adventure pack and save the rest for Winter/Thanksgiving Sale.

Give it a shot man, I only guessed six and I don't even know if I am right for any of them. Someone could guess 8 items but only get 3 right. You never know!

Secretly I don't want anyone else to enter so I can win Choplifter HD!
