listen to the mad man
Well, I just cleared out most of my wishlist and it's now limited to stuff I actually want and is ordered, an improvement I feel.
Personally I go back and forth. I go through the whole catalogue and swell up my wishlist with stuff that catches my eye, then I wait a little while, then something goes on 75% off say and I'm like "I wouldn't buy that" and I realize my wishlist is filled with stuff I don't even want and shed down.
Right now it's a little bloated because with the Xbox One and PS4 not having BC I added all the games I own on Xbox 360/PS3 that I could remotely ever want to replay and don't own on Steam.

You know, I've decided to sell all my dupes and keep the rest. I may be losing a couple of euros, but since it seems that cards will be the meta-game during the Summer sale there's a slim chance they'll be worth more once it starts (or maybe you'll be able to get free games when you craft a set like during the 2011 Winter Sale...)
Now that I think about it, this makes it much harder to abuse the system with multiple accounts. You can still buy an entire set of cards off the market, but if you could get games out of this I'd wager that cards prices would skyrocket. On the other hand, actually owning games benefits you since you can get up to half the set without trading nor spending money.
Maybe that would be too good to be true, I'd settle for free DLC like in Summer 2011 (or was it 2010?). I just don't want another sucky sale, Valve

the Go Home Dinosaurs cards were selling for something like 0.3 when it went on sale.
I waited a few days and now they are around 0.5/0.7...
I think you should wait a little.

One the beta ends, I think that the price will drop, since everyone will have cards
Always wait. The demand doesn't kick in for a couple days.
That was one of the first things I did when I fully switched over to PC gaming.

I have not gotten any yet.
Me neither, seems they're pretty rare, so kind of a useless system. Still the only way to complete a badge is buying your way there.
Same here :/

You can get cards from multiple games and trade for the cards you want to make a badge from.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.

That seems to be the general case, although if you open it and get a foil......

I would buy those so hard.
The idea of Halo 3 on steam with all of its multiplayer features sounds amazing.

I hope so. Day 1 for all of them, if true.

That reads like a wet dream. You always wake up in an empty bed though.
But if I have the game, I like that game, and want a badge for it. So I can't trade. Now what?

Yea i'm hoping. It kind of lines up with previous rumors. The trilogy appeared on the registry,this month is when they take down halo 2 servers.

Heck, I'd check them out. I had some fun playing Halo 3 multiplayer at my friend's house back in the day. It was actually one of the games I bought an Xbox 360 for back in 2008, but I never got around to buying it.
Well if you like every game that you have cards for you have to buy the needed cards. That's how the system is designed for better or for worse.
Is it just me with 92 cards and no foils? :S
"Dear Gabe,
look at how much depressed I'm now (ok, it's not entirely your fault). You should hire me lifelong as a pixel artist (oldstyle flavour) for repentance. Deal?
Sincerely yours,
Hinomura"
Back to thread, anyone else noticed the "Castlevania: Lords of Shadow Ultimate Edition" page?
It says: "release on 27th August", but no price and no pre-order / buy button (checked it / us / uk stores).

I'm not even into Halo but I'd totally purchase one just to mess around in and say, "Hey. This. Good job."
Wonder if ODST and Reach will follow?

so, interested on that Get Loaded deal, mostly because of Dishonored, but no sure about the other game i should get. Already have New Vegas, not the complete edition though.
I wish you could pick dishonored twice. I'd have bought it.

Wow you guys were right about the Steam Market crashing. Alot of the valuable TF2 stuff I have isn't worth a lot now.

Do we know when the beta ends?
Drops half the total, rounded up if its an odd number.
Dang, I read it wrong. I answered how many cards Magicka has, not dropped >.<

Someone from america wanna help me buy warlock (plus dlc if possible) in exchange for paypal?
It would be a shame if they didn't bring ODST over as well. Firefight would be perfect for PC.

Hope this is true. I loved playing Halo in my console days but can no longer stomach a controller with FPS games.

At the very least, I wish we could get Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2 on Steam. Maybe 3 and beyond are just a pipe dream, but come on MS, 1 & 2 already have PC ports.

We don't have enough horde modes?
Can't go wrong then for about $1.50. Heard the game is a bit of a mess, but very funny.
