If that's true, then how do I have 200+ games on Steam?

Cause you're a bot?

That's what everyone says when they can't get keys. Lol.

I've had no problems getting some codes, you just can't fuck around. If you're able to paste/type it into the window, there's just as easily someone else out there capable of doing it a fraction of a second faster. Don't underestimate the amount of people at the ready to go at this.

I blame my slow ass typing. (I used the video, not Twitter)

I then put all the blame on my shitty Malaysian ISP.
I've been meaning to ask, I'm torn between getting X-COM for the GMG or via Steam.
Reason being as cheap as it can get on GMG, I really want to customize my own soldiers. Do you guys think the discount you can get on GMG will make it much cheaper than the game on Steam + inevitable DLC?

Also, use a dedicated twitter program/add-on. The website is slooow.

I'm actually not that mad that I didn't get Half-Minute Hero. I'd just have thrown it on my big backlog and wouldn't have played it until much later. So I'm glad someone who doesn't have 300+ games and is actually going to play it in a timely manner had the chance to get it.
...on the other hand I just know that 90% of the people who got it are in the same situation I am ;_;

According to its listing the game requires Steam anyway, so the real choice is whether you want the discount or whether you want Guile hair for TF2.
You want the discount. seriously look at that ugly mess

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I usually don't take codes for games I'm not going to play any time soon or ever. It'd be nice if everyone operated like that.

wasn't it promised to be? Seems so long ago, but it'd be kind of dumb to go back and not honor it.

Every time I look at the last code I got from a GAFfer (Adventures of Shuggy) I feel bad for not playing more. But I'm sick of those shitty time-based levels.

It is your duty to complete the game. You are bound by an unspoken rule since you took the code.

This makes me wonder what the protocol is for gifts sent out but left unclaimed.
Two of the games I "gave away" in this thread last week are still sitting in my inventory. I have no idea who the first person is. The other acknowledged the gift and thanked me (which I appreciate) so it's that much odder that they haven't redeemed it yet.
Guess I'll reach out to them on Sunday...

Check your HIB2 (or HIB3 if you beat the average) page, there's a seperate Cortex Command key there now!

So for people who've played the Witcher series I've played 15 hours of the Witcher and while I like the game it's not really grabbing me, should I just skip to the Witcher 2? Don't really have that much time to game right now so is it worth sticking with the Witcher or should I just go on to the second one
Joe Molotov

I found Witcher 2 to be a lot more engaging right from the beginning, and you should be able to get into the story easily even if you haven't finished the first one.
I thought the original really dragged on before it got its hooks into me, but it didn't take 15 hours. Ended up being one of my favorite RPGs of all-time. I guess maybe it wasn't meant to be?

Thanks! I can't remember where I played a version of the game once but I had fun loading ships full of crabs and bombing the enemy with it causing the game to render at a frame a minute.

I think the game itself is good and was pretty into it up until that swamp part in Chapter 2, those plant things that come up out of the ground killed me so many times that running around the swamp just became frustrating.

Well then i gave it to the right person.

Cortex Command hidden in this post
Lord British

Imagine if people started hiding Cortex Command Steam codes in their posts. That'd be crazy!
First mission I played in the swamp really ticked me off. When I came back at it the next day, I decided to avoid all combat unless absolutely required. Kept that attitude about the swamp the entire time. It really should be a combat light zone.

Even crazier would be someone taking one of those keys and activating it on Steam! (thanks)

I feel somewhat bad that I got a free code. Especially since the folks at that Twitter account personally gave me two codes last night. One of which was stolen before I got the chance to redeem it. I may gift the game to someone though just to give them my money and support for Half Minute Hero 2.
wait did Cortex Command come out on Steam? does it redeem automatically or something? bought it ages ago
well, i'd certainly play it, but im not gonna beg :b

Would like one. Heard really good things about the game but cant afford it right now. College begins soon.
U can get the Steam code from Humble Indie Bundle 2 or 3.

Check your HIB2 and HIB3 (Bonus) pages. The keys just magically appear there.

And if anybody wants to test this, it's a HiB6 code containing Wizorb, BIT.TRIP.RUNNER, Gratuitous Space Battles, and Jamestown.
don't know if it works but I don't remember giving it out either

Activated it. Thanks dogg.
The kind of name I don't want in my steam library. It's from the latest indieroyale bundle.
