I suspect it's just been delayed, not given a pardon. My guess is that the date has been pushed back six months, to December 31st.

I wish they could improve it (I know, I know) or just drop it.

Been playing Fallout 3. It says it does not require GFWL but when you play it for the first time it tries to log-in. I know you can just press "Esc" or even disable, but Steam should make this clear. Also, it's not stated that they run out of keys for this game. You don't even have a "CD KEY" tab for the game any more and if you want to find out you need to search for this specific game on Steam assistance page.

On their front page they should say: GFWL not needed but you will also get a prompt unless you follow a Tutorial to remove it. Also, we no longer have CD KEYS for you and we might never have them again, but it's okay since you don't "need" them.

However I don't own any DLC for it. If we go to the Store page for the DLC it shows this:

Other Requirements: Online play requires log-in to Games For Windows - Live

I just wish they could be more organized, it's a bit of a mess for some games right now. I'm not sure if I'm going to risk and buy some of this DLC.
 
Same levels and story, updated graphics,physics, etc.
I am wondering what they could add graphically. Weren't the Metro Games already graphical showcases when they came out?
Thanks

Also, last reminder:

I hate it when Steam puts your screenshots up in random order, breaking up your finely crafted narrative.

You could always try uploading the screenshots one by one instead of in a batch. That will maintain the order they were uploaded in. Although anything that's tagged as a spoiler will take lower priority in terms of showing up on the community feed.

Borderlands 2 GOTY and Metro: LL

OR

borderlands 2 GOTY and MGR: revengeance

OR

Metro: LL and MGR: revengeance

Help me GAF.

Definitely Metro and MGR. The only way for me to play through Borderlands 2 was with friends and family, I couldn't play it alone.

It'll pretty much be Metro games truly optimized for PC/SteamOS and with TRUE next gen "non-consolized" graphics to hold them back. I expect them to be among if not the best graphics show pieces when they release. All things considered Last Light is still one of the top three most impressive game graphically and technically (including 3D Vision support done well) right now...

Couple months the base price will drop down to $20-$25.

The point's for him to ragedrunkbuy stuff that's too expensive, isn't it?
(or am I misunderstanding his pointers?)
(I also tried to keep it within halfway reasonable limits, unlike the EA shill that tried to get him to plonk down 400€ for a texture creator =p)
