Holy shit at that Good Friends Bit Trip Runner 2 DLC. I usually never buy that kind of DLCs (Im more into real story DLC content), but that looks amazing. It even has the character to the best indie game ever in it.

Trading is borked since yesterday. Been trying to buy RAGE, Pixel Piracy and M&B from a dude for over an hour, and all I'm getting is trade errors...What's even worse is that these are flash deals so If the problem doesn't go away in a few hours, I will be missing out on the deals :(

I've generated so many junk backgrounds and emoticons as a result of crafting badges, and I've just barely been able to trade with Trashbot - I get errors most of the time.

I have a question, it's not 100% related to the sale but you know well that it's going to be on sale at some point.

Does Borderland 2 handle travelling between objectives & mob respawn better then Borderland 1?

Because I couldn't handle the travel in the first.

Yes, enemies won't respawn in 2 minutes like the first one. It takes a long time in BL2.

Regarding the summer wishlist winners.

It says you win 3 games of your wishlist, does that mean you should only have 3 games on your wishlist to guarantee you win the ones you really want?

Or is there a minimum number of games to be on the wishlist like in previous Sales (e.g. before it was 10)?

Or if you win do you just get to pick 3 games for yourself off your wishlist?

EDIT:

Did you get to choose the games you won or were they random? How many games were on your wishlist if it was random?

is it manipulation? Or are we warmly embracing it??
Click to expand...

Those aren't mutually exclusive :p we're all embracing it because it's very good manipulation. There's nothing there; just like someone else said earlier, it's the simple act of creating groups and pitting them against each other that triggers this competitive behaviour into our brains, because we're mostly wired to work that way, and if we're not we're at least wired to try not letting teammates down.

Now of course the definition of 'manipulation' is fuzzy... What I mean is that this, just like F2P mechanics (and some non-F2P as well, like Ubi's collecto-mania for instance) are meant to appeal to very 'low-level' human instincts, they're not 'sophisticated' experiences. If Valve wanted to make a 'Summer adventure' they could totally have created something whimsical that encouraged discovery, cooperation, reflection, you name it. Instead thay made something that somehow makes you addicted to your F5 key while 90% of your brain shuts off to let the part that's in charge of spending money work more efficiently.

edit: thanks for the replies re. yesterday's scores

Freedom = $1.05 said:
Far Cry 1 was wonderful in its time, possibly one of the best open worldish shooters ever. However, it's aged like shit so I can't really recommend it. Plus, it gets REAL cheap by the end.

FC2 is considered a flawed gem. It has wonderful open world shooter gameplay but it also features constantly spawning enemies and boy, does that suck after a while.

FC3 is what happens when you fuse assassin creed into far cry. it's good, but it's not really difficult and it also loses some open world features that its predecessor has.

Haven't played Blood Dragon but i've heard that it's a great experience.

Thanks for the thoughts. May hold off for a bit as its a sale-long one.
