Thank you both!
I know that badges and bgs are crap (except my dear lvl 1 Hotline Miami bg that's super cool), but still I'd prefer to craft a badge I won't be ashamed to have.
L4D2 I already own.
CS:GO I won't do because I NEVER played a CS in my life, so it would feel wrong.
Probably I'm going to check the cheapest between Gunslinger (lame cowboy hat badge but somewhat cool bg) and Mark of the Ninja (lame bg but super cool Mortal Kombat badge).
hmm, combat seems pretty basic so far, I'm playing with the full combat rebalance mod installed, it controls well at least.
It's nothing like dark souls though, it feels a bit like a hack and slash with a mix of batman and there hasn't been much interesting enemies to fight against, but I probably aren't far into the game.
It gets more epic if you chose the Iorveth path and reach act 2, and you get some cool finishing move cutscenes if you get that last skill in the swordsman tree.
I'll help you out if you want.
Yea I just got to act 2, seems more fun once I got out of the town
They did a great job with the outdoor environments, even though I think the areas are quite small, it has a great sense of scale.
Nah, thanks anyway. I'll see by Winter Sale.

lol. Tony is trying to get a $2 Aliens: CM. You know we're all buying it at that price.
I wonder if he ever got the okay to do the Pac-Man deal he was teasing a week back. I think it was something like $3.75 for Pac-Man AYCE, and $5-7.99 for a bundle with Pac-Man AYCE, Enslaved and Inversion.

I want these too. And Battlefront, and the KotOR games (never played them).
I don't know if I should try playing this or not. I'd like to help out and try the game, but then I saw that 20 GB of HD space are required.
It would take me at least a week to download that :/
20GB of space required doesn't mean it'll be a 20GB download.
I'm hoping for an Aliens fire sale on Steam at some point so I can stock up on spare copies: AvP Classic, AvP 2010 and of course Cololnial Marines.
Jase, the recent thread on "Why do you say no to greenlight titles?" made me wonder - would you be happy if a thousand games got greenlit so you'd have more titles to buy, or would you rather them not be greenlit so that you have a more complete collection/it's easier to own everything?

Ultimate edition is 7.5 dollars, it's not going to get cheaper than that.
The more, the merrier!

I wonder how many games does the pope buys?

Don't know about the current one, but I'm pretty sure pope Darth Sidious didn't buy any.

I have been waiting for the big Pac-Man bundle since it was mentioned. It would be such a great bundle, I plan on buying at least two of them if it ever does show up.
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
But there is a high chance Ultimate would be at the same price come Winter sale, right? If there is nothing I want on that day's deals, then I'll plop down seven fiddy for it.
Hell no, I'm sticking to windows 8.
That's true, I should check the download size when I get home from work.
Anyway, I see that Amazon.com has some deals on Bethesda games. Morrowind is tempting me. I don't have it on Steam yet. I didn't like Oblivion and I'm still considering it.
I'm kinda worried.
Gonna throw it on a USB drive and see what it's like. Not going to have it as a main OS though.

I'm not so sure, it's already been on sale in autumn sale.
Will a game appear so many times in sales?
It's a distinct possibility as there are a lot more slots to fill during the Winter Sale due to its length (two weeks).

I'd grab extra copies of Aliens CM for 2 bucks.
Would also grab that pack for Inversion alone.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ohhhohohoh Free Dino D-Day Weekend for you all
Pro Tip: It's not worth the install. Wait for Primal Carnage Free Weekend
I'll grab that bundle for Enslaved :O
How did you get that view? Cant find it in Enhanced Steam Options....
EDIT: Never mind, I realised it is another Chrome extension https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/steam-price-comparison-un/dehbnkdmimeibnpbelfcjlahgjpleobb

Heads up but Driftmoon's in your December 4th list when it shouldn't be, the BaGL bundle only gave away the Driftmoon demo and specifically said beforehand that there'd be no Steam keys for it.
It might also be worth rechecking some of them, as some of them appear in bundles after they're greenlit but before they've come out on Steam. Pitiri 1977 is in the current Humble Weekly bundle for example and they've promised Steam keys once it comes out on Steam.
But despite those two little nit picks, nice work.
I secretly hoped that new Tales will be on PC
not really, but that would have been nice
not to play it? me too!

Reposting from the Arkham Origins OT:
Upon further inspection, the issue is identical to this one: http://steamcommunity.com/app/209000/discussions/0/666824800857925740.
This kinda sucks.

If it includes In-Home Streaming I'll put on a crusty old laptop otherwise I'll wait for a fuller release to have a play around with.
The lists aren't intended to be kept up-to-date as that would require me to periodically look into almost every single game in each respective batch, which would already be a lot of work and soon become utterly impractical as more batches of games are approved; that said, I retroactively factored IGS deals into the earlier lists simply because I incorporated it into later ones and wanted consistency. Thanks for the heads-up regarding Driftmoon, though -- for some reason it's labelled as a demo on the bundle page but not on the game page, which is why I missed it.

Afaik the in-home streaming is a Steam client function.

But you will still need some kind of receiver, dont you? If the PC is in a totally different room, the Steam-Controller wouldnt get a connection otherwise.
So you would need something like a little "Stream"-Box receiving and sending the signals to your PC.
Or am I missing something here?

Crafting a badge I guess.
Winter Sale cards and what Chuck said (they've replaced the discounts coupon you usually receive).

yes, it is. Many people think it's SteamOS exclusive for some reason.
Be sure to join the streaming group if you want to get into the beta.
Yes, you need two devices. However they can be Windows to Windows, Linux to Linux, Windows to Linux, whatever. Can be wired or wireless. Can be from a desktop to a laptop.

Ya, crafting badges, discount coupons for games are replaced by snow globes. I would have had enough of globes for badge if not triples and doubles, planned to make it yesterday and post rewards today. Plan didn't worked.

when did this start?
I just crafted my CS badge less than a week ago.
Someone posted it a day before yesterday and I crafted some badges yesterday, all rewards included globes instead of coupons, so at least couple of days ago.
