If he hasn't played many of the Valve games and is interested, I could probably hook him up with the 2011 Valve Complete Pack I've had since the holiday sale for cheaper than it might go.

Man, I was pretty happy when I got Portal for free, thinking that was the only thing I'd ever have on Steam. A month later I was like "Hmm, maybe I'll try this TF2 game, it looks pretty cool", how all most 2 years later I have 280 games. smh
First hit's free man
Don't worry, Rayman Origins is one of the best games from last year. Get some friends over, play coop and it's like visiting an old friend of yours (classic and challenging platforming).
Only works if you have a valid receipt from the last 90 days. Maybe other people will have better luck getting through Steam support than I did though. It's been about 6 years without a response for me. I just bought it again when it was on sale for $1.
Anyone have any idea where to find the key for Bringing down the Sky DLC for Mass Effect 1? I registered the game and played the content years ago, but now that they've changed the site over to bioware social network I can't seem to find where all my games are registered.
Edit:
Nevermind, found it on the social forums. The universal key now is 3FLL43UUJTN8W8EX25J3
There was a time where you could register NWN and NWN2 on the bioware site and they'd hold onto your keys in case you ever lost them. I wonder if that info is still available? (It doesn't really matter to me, I have the keys stored seperately, but curious what they did with that stuff.)

http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/131/index/1335293/1 is what I found from the social bioware forums.
Edit: coopolon, they removed the cd key unfortunately. I don't have my keys anywhere up but there either >.<. Well luckily I got NWN diamond from gog.com cheap.
That sucks.
Fortunately I guess for people in your situation nwn and nwn2 + all expansions get pretty cheap on sales these days. Gamersgate had them for just a few dollars a little while ago, and I'm sure steam will as well eventually.Still pretty lousy of Bioware to do that though.

No! Wait for the summer sale! Wait for the dailies!
It really does work out for him though. Most people already own too many of the Valve games to be able to take advantage of any of the complete packs when they go on sale.

Also gog.com will offer separate multiplayer keys as well, but still would've liked to use my original ones. Sentimental
Yeah, I know, but I imagine there would be some leeway if the title in question is a particularly older one.

My friend got his cd key from hl1 to get put on steam after they said they were used and all he had to do was take a picture of the box. No receipt needed. This was like 6 months ago.

Weird, how come my tropico 4 DLC hasn't shown up yet?

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Pretty nice price on Trine 2 there.
Gotham City Impostors is gonna have to go a lot lower.

Trine 2 is absolutely amazing, barring a puzzle or two near the end of the game.

Trine 2 for 7.50? Buying that as soon as I get home and double dipping.
It's an ok little lite jrpgish game. The Costume Quest comparison isn't far off, though I enjoyed CQ quite a bit more.
The Penny Arcade games are alright. JRPG style combat but with minigames during attacks that make it more interesting than the average JRPG. If you like PA humor you'll enjoy the humor of the games. Both are relatively short, 4-6 hours or so. You can import your save from the first game into the second.
It was kind of a big fuck you to the fans that they gave up on the third game, but now they're saying it's going to get made by the guy who did Breath of Death VII and Cthulhu Saves the World.
I'd say for $3 they're definitely worth it if you 1.) Enjoy PA humor and 2.) Don't find JRPGs repulsive.

So, how is GCI? 7.50 doesn't seem like a bad price, unless it's complete garbage. They should have done a free play weekend since it's multiplayer only. Doesn't show much confidence on their end.

Yeah the fixed matchmaking in their FIRST FREE DLC!

Awesome, this is getting bought on the next sale. The higher FOV + no hud looks really lovely.

Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet will have the DLC included once it's released on Steam. Seems like it's all ready they're just waiting on a date.

Time to buy The Darkness 2 soon then. That FOV was horrendous.

Shit, and to think i had a Trine 2 coupon from the holiday sales. Trine 2 seems interesting but a bit steep for me right now. But i see Trine was is just 2. Is Trine 1 good? Is there a solid community right now to get some co op games going?
Day one! Picked up the first Trine as well. For two bucks, why not? I've spent more on a can of beans.
I'll check it out this weekend and may end up getting the second, for the price of a few cans of beans.
Trine 1 doesn't have online co-op, but yes it's pretty damn good. It has local co-op, but it's also completely playable single player.

When do they start the summer sale? Anyone got a clue?
It begins.
It ran through June 30th to July 10th last year, so I would expect this year's to be around the same time. Salsa will be back by then, hopefully he can do the summer thread again
.Structure wise it's a lot like
Nice to see that Darkness 2 FOV patch, even though I've already beaten it. Low FOV never really bothers me much anyway.
A few days into spring and we're talking about a summer sale?

Salsa should be back well before that right? I still think the thread feels weird without him in it.
That being said this will be my first steam summer sale. Going off of past posts it seems to be as big of a to-do as the winter sale. I am looking forward to it.
