Nice work on the new thread, it looks great.
I'm going through the Arkham games right now, i juggled with getting Origins but caved before the weekend deal finished, and i got the season pass too, if it's as buggy as the console version i'll just have to grit my teeth and get on with it.
I do need to upgrade for the release of Arkham Knight though.

I'd be shocked if there isn't. There was for DS1 and others with split release between console/pc

Merely a guise for a support for white supremacy.
Dark Souls 2 ripoff! Sue 'em FROM! >:-(PayDay 2 is getting some massive free updates
also this was pretty good
Heisters,
It seems that the police together with Gensec have gone all out in their efforts to stop us from heisting. Below we share the little information we've gathered from these new enemies.
Introducing the Mirror Shield
Using the latest Gensec developed L.I.N.K. technology, the new Mirror Shields will be able to reflect any projectiles that are shot at them. Also, trying to melee the shield will make you melee yourself.
I like overkill
I need to get back to it
Shit getting seriously sci-fi in that

Cool, new thread.
Namco PR rep came out and said all the screens on Steam were direct from the PC version, they also removed all those screens from the reveal in April and TGS.
So don't hold your breath on fancy lighting. Solid port? I would say it will be.

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.
It is the stuff of legends. You can expect almost everything in the store to be 50-75% off (or more). Of course, it's up to the publishers so there are always exceptions (like basically, anything by Activision) but it's generally best to plan on having some money on hand and picking up enough games to last you until the Winter sale later in the year.
Traditionally, each day will yield 8-12 new "daily deals" where the discounts are even higher than normal. It's like having a coupon apply to something on clearance, and it's all together wonderful.

It's insane. Last summer was my first Summer Sale and it's crazy. Sales all day, every day. Watching the Steam thread freak out when a new batch of sales starts, waiting for your favorite games to get a huge discount, waiting for your prefered Communty Choice to lose to some other game. It's awesome and your wallet and backlog will hate you for months to come

my personal take is unless you have absolutely nothing to play and want to buy something then obviously buy something if it catches your fancy during the summer sale. If you can wait until the winter sale, there usually is some type of meta game which also includes incentives for buying stuff on the store.

You also get trading cards for every $10 you spend and every 3rd vote in the community poll. Your best bet is to add a bunch of games to your wishlist that you are interested in so you can quickly check their prices during the summer sale.
queso thanks for interstellar marines
had good luck today
also tried that final exam game i got. weird game, kinda like a singleplayer/coop version of that game from the magicka guys or maybe like a sidescroller l4d? i dunno, playing it on my own is kinda unexciting but sounds like it might be a bit better with friends if classes and weapons get varied enough
i heard they reworked stealth and whatnot but

yea i keep telling myself i gotta play some payday 2 again and end up reinstalling it and after a few weeks of having to download what it feels like a million patches i just shut it down again
i heard they reworked stealth and whatnot but
There hasn't been a meta game since winter of 2011... been so long...
It still cuts just as deep as it did Summer 2012

Anyone else get some more coupons? 75% off Skulls of Shogun and 25% off Octodad for me.
So are you implying Tintin is racist and that black guys in his comics are depicted as being utterly stupid?
I think you are crazy!
I love Tintin, it just wouldn't be the same if Congo guys were smart
Stumpokapow
listen to the mad man
Yeah, there's a reason the Congo and USSR books never got adapted for the TV series
I don't mind getting rid of some of the stuff from the title.

Ace Combat: Assault Horizon got patched today to completely remove GFWL.
And the USSR one was never released in color. In fact, I only found out it existed when I went to download the books that my dad's collection is missing. It doesn't even appear in the list of comics that's featured on every book.Yeah, there's a reason the Congo and USSR books never got adapted for the TV series
I'd love to get a physical copy of the ones I don't have, though sadly I haven't seen them in any library. Maybe I should try to track down some used copies on the internet...
How big it is? Well, know that when I bought my first Steam game back in July 2012 (Max Payne 3) from Amazon I wasn't planning on buying anything else. Summer Sale started less than 2 weeks later and I ended up spending close to 100 bucks (though a part of it was spread between GMG and Amazon too). So yeah, they are big. Pretty much everything is discounted.

I wouldn't mind an Octodad coupon, but I'll just wait until the sale. I'm hoping that and Jazzpunk get decent discounts.
not to mention that hilarious banned ussr book where tintin finds out that in russian factories workers are actually burning books instead of manufacturing crapSo are you implying Tintin is racist and that black guys in his comics are depicted as being utterly stupid?
I think you are crazy!
I love Tintin, it just wouldn't be the same if Congo guys were smart
but hey racist or not captain haddock was a true man
i'm pretty sure the edition i have is in color
it's somewhere at my dad's place but i'm pretty sure it is
