You have to know a lot of gaming history, have some knowledge on the world of cheating codes in console games and be browsing GAF from a desktop computer.

I knew that was a joke but I had to type that code in any way :D

I've always wondered this; HOW do you get Neogaf Gold? What is it exactly? I always thought it was just a joke, or is it?

You need to own 5 copies of bad rats, get a tag in your name then perform the Tomb Raider Lara Croft nudity code on the forums.

Double dipped on Dishonored - hot damn the image quality is awful on this game.
Does have some noticeable aliasing issues, but that can be fixed! Its not a highly demanding game. I'm running it at 1440p(downsampled to 1080p)/locked 60fps and max settings no problem.

Looks beautiful.

Ahhhhhhhh Long Live the Queen is one of the last two things on my wishlist I want to consider this sale a success, but all I have is Mars money. Anyone want to convince me that it's okay to use when you're buying something from your cart as opposed to funding your wallet? Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh dammit.
I don't know man, I think Valve only takes Earth money. Maybe check with some currency exchange store to see if they accept Martian coin, though I'm not sure.

No I'm not. Are you on the desktop website, and on the main page? I think I found the code myself when looking at the source code (I was bored at work one day, but please don't say that to my boss!)

I don't think so. Steam overlay should hook into anything compatible regardless of windowed or fullscreen mode. I also tend to play windowed and never had any issues.

Ok so this is not working.

When I click for the game to run from Steam nothing comes up. Both Uplay + Valiant Hearts are running (according to the Task Manager), but nothing shows up.

I then go to force shutdown Valiant Hearts from the task manager, and it starts running.

But of course no steam overlay :(

Speaking of Long Live the Queen, how long is it? And is it interesting storywise? I'm thinking of picking it up, just not sure it'll keep my attention since it looks like it might get repetitive.

That's weird, Valiant Hearts + Steam overlay work like a charm for me :/
 
How high are the chances that Dynasty Warriors 8 gets to -50% once more? I made up my mind now though the -50% offer from the other day is long gone :(

Thanks for correcting!

I would love to see a modbot troll reply though :D

WTF is Long Live the Queen? Just looking at screens and videos doesn't help me answer this question at all. At first i thought it some sort of graphic novel but apparently it's something completely different?

From my understanding, it's a visual novel of sorts where you level up a variety of attributes to pass/fail story checkpoints, which can alter the story.

It's like the Princess Maker games (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Maker) where you balance your Princess' schedule and choices, building and balancing her stats - which affects story progression. It's more unforgiving than Princess Maker though because your Princess constantly ends up dying.

You'll be seeing this screen a lot:
