EDIT: quick question: Why does everyones steam name URL read like: "steamcommunity.com/id/[name]" and I get a weird "steamcommunity.com/profiles/[numbers]"?
I havn't really managed to understand all this steam ID (never sure which name to give someone so I link to my profile page). Would appreciate if someone could clarify this (in one to two sentences). Thanks

Go to edit profile, and go to customurl and just add your name to the end of it.

Magicka is great. I don't play it much though mainly because the save system sucks. You have to finish an entire level to save any progress.

Same store as Deus Ex: HR. Shopto.
As I said earlier it's banned due to a leak of credit cards a couple years ago though you can pay with paypal now.

Some people on cheap arse euro gaf still use and there doesn't seen to have been any problem since that incident.

Has the price been confirmed anywhere?

 

[Twinduct]

And It's closed. Give me 5 minutes! And i'll announce the lucky two!

 

[svegis]

Pre-Purchase Now: Bastion at http://store.steampowered.com/app/107100/

"Bastion is an action role-playing experience that redefines storytelling in games, with a reactive narrator who marks your every move. Explore more than 40 lush hand-painted environments as you discover the secrets of the Calamity, a surreal catastrophe that shattered the world to pieces. Wield a huge arsenal of upgradeable weapons and battle savage beasts adapted to their new habitat"

It's available the 16th of August in EU, but I'm having some problems finding the price.
I switched to the US site and I can see http://store.steampowered.com/sub/11072/ which gives Bastion the price $14.99, but since it's just added to the store(ten minutes ago) might as well wait it out and see if it goes lower(or higher, heavens).

Images below(for those at work) -

http://cdn.steampowered.com/v/gfx/a...358e1481b733ec226cca.600x338.jpg?t=1312552993

Comes with Steam- Leaderboards, Cloud and has controller support according to store page. Looks good, has a few awards too, if you're uncertain of the quality. I know it's been on the Xbox 360 arcade(taken from OT), see reviews below.

Eurogamer - 8
Ars Technica - Buy
Edge

GAF OT can be found here.

edit: Beaten on the news, but fleshed it out a bit before submitting. I hope no-one minds the "extra" post about it. I also seem not to be able to grasp how to get images working, so just a link to them for now. :\

 

[Volcynika]

The Steam Twitter said it was available for pre-purchase, so we might see that shortly. Not sure though, probably will be what it was on XBLA.

 

[Dice]

OMG Bastion looks amazing.

 

[StuBurns]

£15 in the UK store, that's pretty bad.

EDIT: No it's not, I'm lying, it's £11.49

 

[Sutton Dagger]

RAGE is confirmed to be a Steamworks title: http://www.idgames.de/showthread.php/12896-idGames-Exclusive-Interview-with-Tim-Willits

RAGE: RAGE will use Steam. Which features of Steam are used? Do you use Steam Cloud?
Like the console versions you will have achievements. Also the profile itself is saved in the cloud. Unfortunately Mr. Willits couldn’t answer the question if the savegames are also stored in the cloud. (We’re still waiting for a qualified answer)

 

[masterkajo]

Bastion shows up for me (EU store) for 13.99.-

13,99€ in the European/Swedish store.
Also seems like there are two Bastion in the store with the same store page content.

Well, you can only be so lucky before you feel bad for the rest.

 

[Stallion Free]

Bastion's art looks great at 1080p which is nice. I wasn't a huge fan of the gameplay on the XBLA demo though.

They shit canned the OS X version, lame.

And I don't believe Sony wouldn't allow cross platform play.

EDIT:

Ummm

RAGE: I took the opportunity and looked at the options menu. There were no graphic options beside resolution, brightness, anti-aliasing and GPU transcoding. Is this a limitation of the test version?
This is a feature of the id Tech 5. The Engine automatically adjusts to your hardware to ensure the best performance and graphics the hardware can provide.

What the fuck.

 

[Sora]

Good luck for everyone in the contest.

 

[Sutton Dagger]

They shit canned the OS X version, lame.

He is pretty open about why as well

No, Tim thinks that the market is just too small. Also all internal resources are currently used to capacity due to RAGE, Quake Live and Doom 4. Even though there’s currently a huge Mac hype going around he smiled and said “Mac users don’t buy video games. They buy Angry Birds.”.

Lame.
