Is there a way to upgrade to the GOTY Borderlands 2? I bought the regular edition before I realized the GOTY version was on sale.

Fucking Steam. Never have plans to buy anything, but this weekend I bought:

The Witcher 2
Ghostbusters
PacMan CEDX
Amnesia: AMFP
Bionic Commando Pack
Tomb Raider

and looking at a bunch of other super cheap indie shit right now. This Kairo game sounds cool, might scratch that Myst itch. Kinda interested in Naissance but it's still too much for me.

I almost bought Nether after watching the gameplay vids, so glad I read the reviews.

Fallout: New Vegas is very tempting but when I owned the game for 360 I always would get to a certain point and lose interest.
 
I just re-added me CC information that I've been using forever (was already verified) and it let me back into the Market.

If you have that available.

What do you mean by readding the credit card information? I don't understand.

Whoa, what happened exactly?

I used the M&M credit to add $5 to my Steam wallet. Now I can't buy or sell anything in the market until a week from now.

Is the Castle Crashers community still active? Also is the game worth playing for the single player?

Can't speak for the community, but I found it too hard in later stages to be alone. I'm glad I could convince a buddy of mine to play it with me till the end.

What do you mean by readding the credit card information? I don't understand.

If you have a verified Credit Card with Steam already (like me) then I was able to get back into the market by deleting the CC account information and re-adding it.

That's only if you already had CC info previous to getting locked out for adding the M&M money.
 
Wasn't that the main reason why EA games moved to Origin only? Because they wanted to sell all of the DLC outside of the Steam environment, and Valve changed the Steam TOS to prevent that?

Yeah, something like that. EA not wanting to give Valve a cut of DLC, cause they didn't want to have to put it in the storefront or something. Not entirely sure, but that's the gist of what I remember. BioWare made it as convoluted as possible to buy ME2 DLC.

Did that second 2.5d bionic commando never come out on PC? dont see it on the store.
 
Well Valve just cut me off from using the market for adding my M&M money to my Steam wallet. Goddammit.

Is there any way around this?
Assuming you lack verified payment etc. Nope. To add the salt they introduced this new payment verification on the 18th. I guess it is a good idea from a testing things perspective but bad from a annoying people one.

There are all kinds of bugs like making the pending payments in one currency then demanding a completely different one on the verification page and god forbid if your bank does not show you what pending charges are (*raises hand*). It can also trigger on getting pre-order refunds (and does show there is no card to verify).

If the ban won't be lifted before the sale ends it looks like you will have to give your summer cards away. If you logged into a new device you won't be able to do that. Clever idea expiring cards *sigh*

Dang.
Your market participation will be restricted if you add money to your Steam wallet from a new/unverified source

Steam has a ton of protections for "new" traders. It helps prevent fraud, but it's super annoying when you get hit with a false positive.

That does sound annoying. I guess I should be glad I could get the m&ms card to work last night on steam and just bought an amazon gift card instead.

You can now manually verify credit/debit cards, but obviously this only applies if you can view your balance as you need to report the amount that Steam's verification system deducted.

Oh my god this worked!

You're my new favorite person.

Yeah, fuck, I bought the regular Borderlands 2 when I should've gotten the GOTY version. Ugh, don't think there's a way to handle this.
