Argh. I'm thinking of getting the beat hazard ULTRA dlc + terraria and pre-order rock of ages even though I have a backlog of 95 games (not counting expansions and counting 1 season of sam & max as 1 game. And I have all 3 seasons.)

Now Steam crashes when it is logging in. Must be the beta, shit.

Hooray me too. I initially bought the Augmented Edition when the last deal was going on, but ended up having my order canceled for some moon reason. I sorted the issue out and now I can get it!DanDeschain said:
Might be a stupid question, but I need to reinstall Steam itself without losing my games. Do I just need to move everything under 'steam apps' somewhere, uninstall Steam, then install it back, then move the files back to that location? I'm not sure if it'd uninstall all the files in things like the "My Games" folder or whatever.
I've always had this issue with non-Steam game changes never being saved.
Examples:
-I added the Starcrat 2 Beta back when it was out to my list, and even after I remove it, it's back on the list when I log back into Steam.
-If I add a non-game to do when I'm streaming something, it'll never be saved and be gone when I log back into Steam after exiting.
It seems to be stuck in a state of not saving any more changes to my library (might include categories too).
I've tried the deletion of the blob file, but that did nothing.
It's just an annoying issue I want to be rid of.

It might still require a log-in to Uplay within the game. I think Ubisoft added that to R.U.S.E. right before release.

Right, so I just finished the main storyline of TRAUMA.
There are 4 scenarios, each of which has a main ending and three optional endings. The game is neither difficult nor long (I finished the main storyline in 35 minutes without rushing), it's all about the experience.
I find the game quite moody, almost creepy, and I actually like it a lot. Stay away if you don't like "artsy", but personally I thought it was worth the price of admission. Bit disappointed with the end sequence, maybe there's more to see when I've done the optional endings.

According to that link you can actually do that using the steam:// protocol:
That's really cool. Saves having to make a new shortcut if you only want to launch it once with a particular command. If Windows had a proper PATH variable I'd just use the CLI but this isn't a poor substitute by any means.

Looks a lot like Zelda from gameplay as far as I can tell from the pictures. Is the gameplay known yet? I havn't followed it.SalsaShark said:

That's true. Okay, I'll be honest, I just suck at using the Windows terminal. I keep trying to use things like grep and ls and get really frustrated. If I didn't spend so much of my life in front of a bash terminal I'd learn the Windows way of doing it.

The community for Brink is small but active. The recent free weekend and sale helped boost it. You can find Brink in the expanded stats...

It's not an awful game, it's got some good ideas, the problem is some of those good ideas were poorly executed. Don't walk into Brink expecting Splash Damage's former glory and you'll be alright. I'd have no problem saying buy it at 25$ but full price? Tough call.
I bought Brink at launch, played it for about twelve hours and uninstalled it a little frustrated and honestly disappointed. I reinstalled Brink for the free DLC/free weekend player boost and my playtime has jumped up to almost twenty hours. I think I've enjoyed the game a bit more the second time round now that I'm not walking into the game with any expectations, I know what it is, which doesn't exactly come across as a ringing endorsement.

It's taking the dungeon design from Zelda 1 but I think that's (mostly) where the similarities end.masterkajo said:
So I started up New Vegas again due to the last 2 DLCs and I have to say the last couple patches they did really helped things. Not only have I not crashed at all in a couple of hours but the general game seems to be a little smoother. It does take a tiny bit longer to save and delete saves now but I'll take that for no crashing.
Now I just have to play enough to get to level 20ish for the DLCs...

Aliens vs. Predator is only $3.74 at GetGamesGo and activatable on Steam.
