quick question. does anyone know why a particular game might not record how long you played it?

I played about an hour and a half worth of castle crashers and it's not moving up my list.

I'm kind of ocd about my playtime list.

Server issues.
You were playing while offline.
Valve Time converged with Real Time.

I wish TF2 is a Civ

That would be... interesting: shrine hat, lighthouse hat, granary hat and mostly important - colossus hat.
Ok, it's not a good joke either, I know :(

It happened to me when connection had minifails, like for a second, I had it in Civ, no achievements, no playtime.

I would say if you're OCD about your playtime then don't rely on Steam to record it properly.

Yes.

And if you register the game and the 3DS after the 27th of November to Jan 13 you get free Super Mario 3D Land. Also that bundle is sold out everywhere in Aus, since its EB exclusive.

I need to register both the system and the game? I totally want Super Mario 3D Land, but I'm buying Zelda on the eShop...
 
Thank you toddhunter for the Mysterious Cities of Gold!

I promise to use the power given to me to do good on this world, and to impress ladies.


Also your cat is so cute!

You should be able to register the eShop copy on the site. Worked with my digital copy of Luigis Mansion for the 4 for 3 deal in the summer. It will shop up on your club Nintendo account and just needs you to do the survey.
 
Maybe it got already mentioned, but keys for Signal Ops are now available through Indie Royale...

If someone who gets one of these actually plays it, would you mind posting some impressions on it? I noticed it the other day on Steam and thought it looked really interesting, but I didn't want to just blindly jump in.
 
I just started playing Civ 5 last night at the urging of my brother. It was hard to let go and took yelling from my significant other to get me to stop.

Definitely going to check out some of these mods.

Huge sale going on at Amazon starting today. Not all games on this list are for Steam so be sure to check what DRM it uses! Also, be sure to check the start date and end date of each item.

Some notables are things like BF4 for 30 dollars, Bioshock Triple Pack for 15, Some mini Lego Heroes Pack for 15, Enslaved for 10 (Picking this up for sure), Saints Row IV for 20 and so much more. Oh and Final Fantasy XIV for 15 dollars and Batman: Arkham Origins for 20. Be sure to scroll alllll the way down before you ctrl+f.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DQXF8AU/?tag=neogaf0e-20 - Grand Theft Auto 3 Trilogy (3/VC/SA) $6-7

That last one I dunno if it's Steam or whatever, and I dunno if the ports are okay now a days or were good for the time. Kinda want to get it to suppliment my X-box version, but they apparently didn't get the X-box version's "clear" look so I dunno... :/

Payday 2 and Batman for those prices not even two-three months old is mighty tempting though.

How's State of Decay these days on steam? Is it worth picking up now?

It's a decent game that always teases you that there's a ton of hidden depth and complex systems in the game but never really reveals them to you. Most of the systems that are in the game are ankle deep in reality but there's enough randomness there to keep you on your toes and prevent it from being too easy.

theyre steam...but speaking of GTA, have GTA 1 and 2 been removed from steam? they used to only be available with the GTA complete pack, but they don't even seem to be there anymore
 
Anybody know if Settlers 7 still requires a permanent internet connection? The deluxe version is going for $12.99 on Amazon, but I'll resist it if it still has that horrible DRM.

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.
Saint's Row IV will be $15 on Amazon? DAAMN.

Glad I waited.

Just a heads up, it's still cheaper to buy an AMD code, assuming you want some of the other games. For $18 on eBay I picked up Saints Row IV, Dirt 3, and Thief (the new, unreleased one).

EDIT: Although, prices have gone up since then looks like they're about $25 now.
