Awesome giveaway, sir.
Are we supposed to put the title of the game in? I've always just put the key in, thr MB-xxx portion.

I crafted the summer badge today. I support Team Pink!!
That's better odds than the lottery.

Still beats the odds on SteamGifts or something.

That's enough, no title.
Either way works

So many giveaways. Voted for Atmospheric - Horror since I'm gunning for Amnesia.
I want this as well, but we'll probably get Surgeon Simulator 2013, Terraria, Half-Life 2 and Banished.
Has anyone here actually won something on SteamGifts? :O The odds of winning there are pretty insane,
Do you think that the Dysfunctional Systems VN is similar (seems to be made by the same dev)? I was curious about that, but should probably try this first since it's no risk. It would at least give me an idea of whether the writing grabs me.

Well, ModBot so far has had 165,000 entries over about 23,000 giveaways; if I could have charged $1 per ModBot entry the way the lottery charges...
D-do you mean that?! Or are you just trying to even the odds....?

Give me your verdicts on Fear Collection, Resu, and Octodad Dadlist Catch.
ModBot has been used to give away 23,000 games? Holy hell. I know the great majority are probably cheap, bundles, and bad rats, but that's impressive.
This has shown up on GoG a couple of times this week FYI.
Anyone want to recommend me/steer me away from Resident Evil: Revelations and/or Resident Evil 6? Considering picking up both, kinda had an itch for action-y/horror-y games lately. Still haven't gotten around to playing the best of the bunch though (RE4), so I'm not sure if I should just wait till another sale or not.
Any thoughts?

Fear 1 & 2 are fantastic solo horror experiences, and Fear 3 is good in the same way RE5 and 6 are: co-op.

you can't put a price on sparks
By the way, good job with the modbot programming. It's pretty cool that it can handle all of that!
stump pls

The Fear collection is worth it for that cheapo price, really good horrorish FPS the expansions are OK they have there moments. Fear 2 is a good sequel if you want to grab that as well, Fear 3 is shit, I never finished it though so i have gotten better later in the game.
only way to win at Steam gifts is private giveaways or giveaways that have a contribution requirement worth of games donated, the higher the amount the better your chances. Fuck ever trying to do the no requirement ones. You get like 1000 to 4000 entries on those.
Make it f2p, while making no win in the last day standard and selling recharges for entries.

So I just pulled the trigger on System Shock 2, are there any mods that would be considered 'essential'? I'm up for pretty much anything except maybe super modern looking model replacements.
so,who is winning this time ?

Who the fuck does this even apply to anymore? Come on son, update your game page.
People who don't meet those system specs. It doesn't hurt to have a warning up for people who are still using older/hand-me-down PC's.
Play it pure and fresh, the way it was meant to be!

Much appreciated!
I do want it relatively fresh. I'm gonna treat it like I do Morrowind. Maybe some ease of use stuff touched up, but keep it as close as possible to the original without making it feel like a chore to play.

i won like 2 times on non-group giveaways,recently i stopped visiting the site though
Only the art style is the same. I haven't finished Dysfunctional, but the writing seemed to be pretty good. However, I'm not really qualified to know what is good writing actually is. Just know if your getting it just for the artwork like I did. Episode 2 is going to have a different artist since Doomfest the artist behind the first game is not going to be working on it.
SS2Tool was suggested to me, but I haven't looked too deeply at it myself.

Do not buy RE6. There are some cultists who believe it's secretly the best shooter/action game ever made - do not listen to them. They are wrong and smell bad. It's a bad horror game and a bad shooter.
RE:R is pretty good. It's not revolutionary (or revelatory) but it is a fairly solid RE game.

I'm maybe one of the few here who has not played ANY of the Amnesia games. Spare me.

The writing in Dysfunctional Systems is great, it's just really short at around 2 hours long.
What hppened anyway? I read that they parted way while looking at the kickstarter, but I don't think I grasped the details.
