If we don't get a German simulator Oktoberfest sale later today then we'll never get one..
there's always next year I guess...
yet France has 2 sales? 1 for Bastille Day (ok) and then another a week ago for I don't know
France > Germany confirmed?
maybe German publishers aren't interested?
I would like you to say that when facing the dragon

never!
But a crappy German Simulator Sale would be nice, still missing some of them
Edit: Next week would be a good moment for a German indie sale because of the German Unity Day

Yeah, watching the videos it seems like Drakengard 1 dragon gameplay without the hoards of dudes to burn down or the flying enemies.
not to mention it's EA...
we need Drakengard games on steam,
including 3, yes (><)

lol
luckily thats not really a problem anymore these days except for a handful, and mostly ignorable, games
and it was never as bad as people outside of Germany think it was, lots of misconceptions

Try this:
Lol I should have changed the red on the flag to green too.

Good thing that crap isn't much of a thing anymore, I remember hearing about it a lot a few years ago.

So I'm playing Arkham Asylum and get stuck in the geometry while picking up one of the Riddler's maps and the Riddler says "maps are always helpful when you get stuck".

Great stuff.
I think you've let a few too many bundles and summer sales get to your head, bro. 10 is an entirely reasonable price for a game, all things considered.

Wait for traders, they might offer it for a good cheap price.
On one hand, that's like 15-20 credits at an arcade.
On the other, Crimzon Clover WORLD IGNITION is up on Steam, costs the same and gives you way, way more than Raiden can hope for.
A curation success story, huzzah.
Speaking of curation, what's the story with NeoGaf's curators?

This isn't exactly Steam related but it is PC game related, but Space Engine is absolutely insane, I played it for the first time yesterday and meant to post about it today, I'm in awe of how they make that game work, every thing I clicked had it's own solar system and every planet had a surface that can be explored. I would love to see that technology in an actual space game like Star Citizen or something. If you haven't tried it, check it out.

This kind of behind-the-scenes stuff is always interesting to hear. I think this store update will go down as a success. Anecdotal but still I have added several new games to my wishlist I didn't know existed today and yesterday.
Man, where was this a couple of years ago when I was learning to drive?
Interesting that they both have Steam Achievements, most of their simulator games don't.
I'm not talking about Raiden 3 specifically, since I only like the Jet sub-franchise and find regular Raiden boring, but any game that isn't Zen Fish Sim is worth 10.

Nah. I love shmup, i don't mind dropping 15 for Astebreed for example.
I wouldn't mind if they had put some effort into this release, but Raiden 3 is just a port of an old pc version and with limited graphical options.
Might be a bad idea...

Ruruja: Achievement?
Insurgency selling over 400k copies is pretty awesome. It's never been high on the top sellers list, not for long anyway. But over time those sales start to add up even if some are sold with heavy discounts.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
I feel like, once again, Valve overestimated it' users.

Curators need to get fixed big time.
At this point it's just worthless mini reviews above the real reviews. That's if its even a review at all.

Steam: Ride the Lightning, buy Raiden.
Now, wish they could put up Raiden IV and at least put some effort to it, like Steam achievements...
Raiden IV has been screaming for "dat Steam edition"...
edit: I noticed Greenlight has been nothing but phased out of the new main store page. Considering it's been almost two months without a batch being picked up... Guess it's going away quite soon.

They live in a dream with this user driven utopia.

I just remembered that PC versions of the Shikigami no Shiro games exist.
Come on Alfa Systems, you also want a portion of that sweet steam money!

But this is the most predictable outcome to anytime users are given control of creating some kind of content. In fact, I'm pretty sure there was a talk Gabe Newell gave a talk on curation of the store as well as other talks on user made content, and some of the outcomes being similar. I'd guess this is exactly as the Tags were, and the situation isn't going to change for a month or two

Is it worth getting? Seems like a cheap game. The downside that it's made for smartphones. Is the PC version anything good?

I was stoked about the curation feature because I thought I would discover or find new games to actually play and stuff. Then, as soon as I start browsing, the troll "curators" and such brought back the memories of the initial stages of Greenlight, the Workshop and the tags.
Valve never learns when it comes to this stuff. You need to put some stricter rules or people start abusing things to kingdom come. But Valve plays the waiting game: once people get tired of the new toy, they'll stop trolling, that's when they start acting. Guess it's not that bad of an approach in the long run. I think...

The best trpg of the millienum or a tower defense game, should be an easy decision
I played a bit of both and ended up going with Defense Grid 2.

Thank you for reminding me this game exists...
I really want a new skateboarding/snowboarding/skiing/bmxing/whatever on PC.
I'll wait for when it comes out as a f2p though.

oh god it's coming
i ain't paying 70 bucks for a game, not a fucking chance. any game that is 70 bucks is not getting bought day 1. 'cept the next elder scrolls.
At my local Target, by the check out they have Sims 4 for $80. I saw person after person walk up, pick up a box and then put it down so fast you'd think it was covered in spiders or something.

Woke up to a fresh new version of Enhanced Steam, and all is right in the world again. Thanks jshackles. The Early Access overlay (among other things) was sorely missed in the meantime!
Omigosh, that looks amazing. Like a graphical upgrade of Teleglitch. Will buy the heck out of it when it's released.
Have you guys seen this game "Noct"? I've seen the devs pimp it out on imgur a few times now.
