[Mr. Spinnington]

hey did anyone else get an update for... oh..

 

[Hawkian]

If you 36 potato folk get giftable copies, I would *love* a copy of Amnesia. I hear such great things about it, and it's been a long time since I played anything scary.

(How scary IS it?)

Scary enough that the Justine DLC you need to play for the potato, even with a complete walkthrough, was plenty for me to know I should wait a few months before attempting the real game.

 

[BY2K]

Got the update!

 

[Fireblend]

Dream on.

It's plausible. By the time both games reach 100% completion the countdown will be at least below 4 hours. Audiosurf took 80 mins off the counter, so say these games take out 90 each, having larger CPU requirements than AS; that'd put us at 1 hour from release...

I was watching a play-through on YouTube the other day. Doing that definitely makes scary games more bearable, but I know if I'd been playing myself I'd be almost paralyzed with irrational fear.

*Sees Portal 2 Update*

:O

I wondered what was that. Disappointed =(

 

[Technosteve]

So unlock game ms glados

 

[Lostconfused]

Really the best thing to do is just go to sleep early. By the time you wake up the game will be unlocked and decrypted.

I need to do this... but I have a paper that i'm too busy not writing!

 

[Datwheezy]

Is anyone else unable to log on to Steam? I'm on my Mac and I keep plugging in my password but the login prompt keeps reappearing.

Had a problem with connection errors earlier. Rebooted, everything was fixed.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

I hope the update means it will unlock inmediatley when it has to.

 

[JaseC]

4.5 hours, that's 2pm. I might just go back to sleep.

 

[KScorp]

I should probably type up my essay, take a 2 hour nap, and watch the internet explode.

Spoiler

It will take hours to unlock anyway.

Almost 3am here now, and I'm actually not tired ;__;

Tough choice whether to force myself to sleep now, or be super extra tired tomorrow.

 

[Ozone]

I'm predicting the first level of the Steam version of Portal 2 will be you in a giant room full of potatoes. You'll have to climb up a mountain of them to get to the real game, but it'll take 12 hours to complete.

 

[Jintor]

Man, once Killing Floor unlocks hopefully the extra flood of CPUs dropping into other games will power them through within an hour

 

[XeroSauce]

What happens to potatoes earned at this time?

Man, once Killing Floor unlocks hopefully the extra flood of CPUs dropping into other games will power them through within an hour

6k of Killing Floor players are actual KF players. :/

Its ALWAYS better to sleep, even if only for an hour.

 

[The Technomancer]

fucking

Well done Valve, well done

 

[EatChildren]

In 4.5 hours I will be playing Portal 2.

How exciting!

 

[epmode]

Deja vu.

 

[Jintor]

3k with CPU boost might be powerful enough

 

[JaseC]

Have Valve mentioned anything in the way of what us Golden Potato folks will receive?

 

[Ark]

Yup, off to bed now.

If I'm not playing Portal 2 within 30 minutes after I leave my bed, I'll throw my shoe at a Ferrari.

 

[bluedeviltron]

I love how every single prediction in this thread has been wildly wrong.

 

[JaseC]

I love how every single prediction in this thread has been wildly wrong.

That's our GAF!

 

[Stabby McSter]

I love how every single prediction in this thread has been wildly wrong.

I predict that Portal 2 will come out sometime this year!

 

[SteveWinwood]

I predict that Portal 2 will come out sometime this year!

You joke but valve time still exists...

 

[KScorp]

I predict that Portal 2 will come out sometime this year!

It's going to be Half-Life 2 all over again.

 

[MasterShotgun]

I predict that Portal 2 will come out sometime this year!

Great, now you've doomed us all.

 

[Lostconfused]

In 4.5 hours I will be playing Portal 2.

How exciting!

[enzo_gt]

Why do I feel like if we would have gone for the "easier" games first we would have been playing this in like an hour? :/

 

[TheOGB]

So I just decided to see how much time until Portatol 2 and the potatoes are...

yeah why is this happening

 

[enzo_gt]

Also, why do I feel those bars have ceased to move in the past hour?

D:

 

[Technosteve]

Have Valve mentioned anything in the way of what us Golden Potato folks will receive?

Probably a tf2 hat

 

[Goon Boon]

They explicitly stated it was a non-hat-based reward on the portal 2 blog.

 

[Bisonian]

So I just decided to see how much time until Portatol 2 and the potatoes are...

yeah why is this happening

Potato thieves!

Actually it's using the potatoes to double the rate the bars are filling up at. If they didn't do that, we wouldn't have made the midnight launch*!

(*If we make the midnight launch)

 

[enzo_gt]

THEY ALL JUST MOVED ONE TICK OVER AT THE SAME TIME. I SAW.

Spoiler

nothing changes.

 

[Fox318]

That's our GAF!

Perfect

 

[THRILLH0]

Heads up for Australians, apparently Valve has given EB/GAME/JB the ok to sell today.

Whether it's official or not all the stores near me are selling. Obviously not that helpful for the PC version.

 

[B-Dex]

Meat Boy is gonna beat KF

 

[Eaten By A Grue]

hey did anyone else get an update for... oh..

Yeah it was like 100MB. What a tease.

 

[AngryChinchilla]

Getting excited.....

 

[duderon]

Meat Boy is gonna beat KF

It's gonna be a photo finish!

 

[scogoth]

I smite thee valve!

 

[Baha]

It's gonna be a potato finish!

Fixed.

 

[Ark]

Someone, somewhere at Valve, is reading this thread and laughing his damned ass off.

 

[KScorp]

Fixed.

I read it that way first. :|

 

[jambo]

Can't wait to get home from work and play.
