There are still some games available here:

- Gumboy Tournament x2
- Race 07 + Race Injection + some DLC x2
- Warfare
- Supreme Ruler 2020 Gold
- Razor 2: Hidden Skies
- World War 3: Black Gold
- World War 2: Panzer Claws
- Commander: Conquest of the Americas

I'd get Razor 2 as well, but I can't, as I already got Insane 2. :(

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Decided to use my HugeSeal.com coupons today. Bought Death Rally, Giana Sisters expansion, and The Swapper for about $11. Got Skulls of the Shogun for free. Not bad.

Black Mesa news, sorry if this has been posted

EDIT: Thread http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=719133

HAPPY 15TH BIRTHDAY HALF-LIFE! We here at Black Mesa have some big news!

The Big News:
Last year, Black Mesa was one of the first Steam games to be Greenlit by you, our amazing fans. We've had quite a year since then, with a lot happening internally that we haven't been able to talk about... until now. Black Mesa has been given the opportunity to be sold as a retail product on Steam! This is an incredible honor - one we never expected - but also one we found hard to accept.

We never developed Black Mesa with money in mind. Our team is made up of average, hardworking people, and no one joined the team to make money. For us, Black Mesa is purely a labor of love. We believe this philosophy has significantly contributed to the overall quality and feel of the game.

Our decision to sell Black Mesa rests on two key points. One is we believe we can make the game even better by having full access to the Source engine. This lets us tackle and fix limitations instead of working around them. The second is because frankly, our team could really use the financial help.


The Plan:
Soon you'll see Black Mesa available on Steam for a relatively low price. But we aren't dropping all support for the free version. In fact shortly after the Steam release there will be a completely new free version of the game. We also plan to open source our maps and some game assets to the modding community!

Purchasing the Steam version of Black Mesa is more about supporting the team and our efforts than anything else. However, the Steam version will include features that the free version simply can not have. We will be paying careful attention to feedback, and you'll have a very real say in how the final game turns out.


Long-Term Plans and Xen:
We've been overwhelmed by fan anticipation for Xen, and we're excited so many people are eager to conclude the game. To be totally honest however, Xen is still a ways off. Over the past year, we have spent a HUGE amount of time porting the game to a new engine and fixing hundreds of bugs. The work to port to the new engine was not because of the decision to go retail, this was work that had to be done to get Black Mesa onto Steam and support our future plans.

So, please be patient with us as we work to make Xen a stunning and worthy conclusion to Black Mesa. Until Xen is completed, we have multiple interesting additions planned for the Steam version of Black Mesa, which we will announce later on down the road.

Thanks,
The Black Mesa Dev Team

I'm enjoying Walking Dead so far :eek:

Sharing my friend's library and for some reason he has nothing but all the episodic games like Back to the future, Hector, SiN, and a few other games, I don't think he played any of them :lol

Yeah, I am playing my way through this at the moment (slowly) and am on the No Loans Highway as well. Hopefully that choice won't dampen our empire building fun too much.

By the way, ETS2 is published by French group Focus Home Interactive, do you think maybe that's why Italy is partially cut in a pre-emptive IN YO FACE COPONS style?

My God!!
How dare they??
Just wait until I unlock the "manure transportation" skill, and I'll be on my way to dump everything in the Seine.

Have you played Volgarr yet Reality?

Not yet. It's on the wishlist.

I played quite a bit of Super House of Dead Ninjas recently and now I'm going back to Super Meat Boy (the last time I played it was at release).

I have this theory about how masochistic platformers are not rewarding. Volgarr may add evidence to this experiment.

Such a friendly forum. Almost brings a tear to my eye! Thanks a lot guys!

It's okay to bring one manly tear fellow GAFfer, but only because what you said it's true. No tears for backlogs, empty wallets or Steam-sale-hypes. For bugs, GFWL or lack of support of some sort. But for this amazing Community? Yes, but only because this place has become so rare it's good. It's the best place to be to talk what we love to talk and to discuss what we love to discuss so in the end, one tear is justified, but it will be a tear of joy proud and deep happiness.

Looks like Black Mesa was moved onto Source 2.

Our decision to sell Black Mesa rests on two key points. One is we believe we can make the game even better by having full access to the Source engine.

When we got on greenlight, we were forced to move to another engine. Right now, we can't tell you what that engine is due to our licensing agreement. Being on this new engine allows us to change how the engine works, modify tools, etc; things we plain and simply cannot do for the free version.

Ahaha, I knew the RPG elements will get ya. Just wait until you get employees to manage. There are also mods to change your portraits and add more radio stations if you want.

this changes everything!

I'm getting this game just so that I can have my crew portraits be my favorite gaf people avatars.

What, they locked it back in? That's crazy!

I'm guessing it's a mistake as the original standard edition sub is still region-free. I don't doubt the flag will be removed but given Ubi's lack of punctuality throughout this entire debacle I wouldn't be surprised if I and other DDE pre-purchasers are left waiting until next week.

Since my question didn't get attention....

How can I make myself completely invisible in Steam? I can see people playing games while not being online in the chat. I want to be completely offline for anyone.

Thanks for Orcs. Now to install the GMG client :p

It's quite good actually!

I bought it during halloween sale. 6 hours in so far and the combat is really tactics based, and difficult sometimes. Music is incredible and story is OK. Enjoying it.

Oh well, I'm starting to dig my Triad muscle man avatar!

Also, I can't wait to start exacting fake-damage refunds to my employees!

But I have to admit that I still haven't created a playlist of bad metal, brostep and reality show theme songs, so I'm still very far away to enjoy this game at its best. :D

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
yeah, but then no background downloads. :D

I guess there's no such option then.

No, he's talking about the community offline status mode.

In the friend list window, click the arrow next to your name and set it to offline. Everything else should still work, you'll just appear to be offline (and you won't be able to see your friend's online status either).

...snip...snip...and more snip...

In conclusion I must say I'm impressed (well, not graphically, I'm barely on medium details, with no AA and HDR). Driving a truck seems surprisingly funny, and my gf too asked me lots of times "plz let me play". NO, I WON'T LET YOU PLAY. I'M THE MAN HERE, AND ONLY MEN ARE ALLOWED TO DRIVE TRUCKS. Uhn.

Well, tl;dr: ETS2 is super cool fuck yeah #yolo

I love ETS2. Go get some map mods etc.

Thanks for making me laugh BTW. :)

She... looks like one of my cousins in that gif. Hair and all. Weeeeird.

She's a million times better looking than my cousin is every single other picture of her.

Scorsese Romulan looks just like my wife's friend.
if my wife's friend was 15 years younger and blonde
So I've been reading all of JaseC's posts in her voice ever since I came to GAF.
