I was going to gift Left For Dead 2 to a friend, but he ended up buying it yesterday before I gave it to him.

Anyone want to trade? I'd certainly take Dirt 2 for it.
 
Steam has been amazing this year even if you take into account the repeat buys that I couldn't gift(the bolded). I got so many quirky indie games that I don't even know where to start. My finger is also hovering over the button for Super meat boy.

Bought Metro. Only other game I ended up getting was Lara Croft, so I think I did well. I was hoping for Darksiders to go on sale, but I guess I'll have to wait until Christmas for that.

Kotor refuses to run on my W7 64 bit. Sometimes it loads the menu screen but I can't click on menus and hear no sound.

I tried mss32.dll fix, tried vertex-something-in-ini fix, tried running it with XP compatibility and tried to run it as administrator. It still doesnt' work.
 
Cant seem to buy Metro, gives me an error message on the payment screen.

Edit - I see it seems to be a paypal thing, I'll pay by card later then. If I can be bothered.

See that game on sale for 5 dollars? Something called Dirt 2? Buy it. If you have a PC that can run it, it's fantastic.

So AvP is $13.60 on the AU store, but Metro 2033 is only $7.50. So if someone from the US wants metro 2033 send me a PM and you can pay me back by gifting me AvP. So you get Metro for only $6.80!

BARGAIN.
 
Is there anything particularly amazing in the Indie Air Pack? Nothing jumps out at me, which I'm actually pleased about, as I've spent too much money as it is. And since I already have other means of playing the other games that interest me (Monkey Island 2, Peggle, and KoTOR), I won't have to spend any money at all today if I'm not missing out on much with the Indie Air Pack.
 
Anyone want to trade the Indie Air Pack for the following:

Bioshock 1

EDIT: just bioshock, HL CD key already used

and

Retail Half Life CD Key with the following: Half Life 1, Counter Strike, Team Fortress Classic, Half Life: Uplink which can be activated on Steam

I'm thinking of the Indie Air Pack, but I already own Flotilla, and Gratuitous Space Battles is the only other game I've heard of from that list.

I don't get why they wouldn't put both monkey islands as a sale, as a pack or whatever. Starting with part 2 isn't really good.

Do you want the indie air pack for a half life cd key? I might be interested.

Sure, I was going to give both but if you just want the CD key I'm fine with that.

If you want to do it, I'll trust you and send you the key first. It's a really old CD so I want to make sure it works before you gift me the game.

Cool?

It will be enough, easily. I run it with 2 Ghz Dual Core, 2GB Ram and 512 MB.

I don't have windows 7 (well I do but don't want to reinstall everything. XP FTL). How well is metro 2033 compatible with windows XP?


You just won't be able to run some of the DirectX 11 shit. But it still looks good and you will more than likely have a better framerate.
