Hey Dankk, any recommended DLC for GRID 2?

The Demolition Derby pack, because it's free. Also both of the track packs (Spa-Francorchamps and Bathurst).

You shouldn't really need any of the car packs... but then again for some reason I couldn't join my buddy's online games until I bought the Classic GRID Pack, which was weird. I think that's only an issue in custom games though. If you just play the regular online playlists you should be good to go.

Grabbed the Poker Night 2 game for $0.99, just because it looks funny and I had $1.32 extra in my Steam Wallet. That brings me to a total of 10 games purchased, plus the Humble Bundle with Sanctum and that from right before. I will also probably grab the Half-Life 2 stuff.

On that, does anyone know if you can gift PART of a game pack? I was considering getting the Half-Life Complete Pack, but I already own most (if not all) of the original Half-Life titles. I wanted to get the pack for Half-Life 2 content, then give the rest to someone, if I can.

These sales have been less than stellar, but that hasn't stopped me from spending more than in the past. It's rather sad, because my backlog is getting huge.

Download the free Demolition Derby DLC at least.

Bioshock Infinite Season Pass is 75% off for $4.99 for 6 more hours.

It hasn't been much on sale on any site I've seen until this.

Just grabbed Castlevania for $10. Looks like a darker Darksiders, of GoW3 with a gothic theme. I think I'll like it, if I ever have time to play it.

Does anyone like Rising Storm? It looks like Arma for World War II. I'm thinking about picking up the four pack.

Thanks for the heads-up, couldn't resist picking up Bioshock Infinite + Season Pass for $15.

Steam stopped their sales early or did something go wrong?

They had a normal front page for 2-3 minutes. Fixed and sales resumed.

Looks like today is the last day for new dailies (today's dailies only last 24 hours). Tomorrow will be an encore it looks like.

I'm thinking of getting a Starbound 4 pack, would anyone else be interested?

I picked it up and played a little. It's fun, but I wouldn't call it Arma per-se. Your "role" in combat is strictly defined by the game mechanics, and hand-to-hand is essentially nonexistent, which kinda kills the immersion for me. I've been in situations where I've been face-to-face with an enemy but there's no melee button for me to butt-stroke him, so we just dance around like idiots until one of us gets a lucky shot.

That said it's still fun, and honestly even if hand-to-hand were fluid it would be an extremely rare occurrence. The weapons are accurately depicted and their historical roles are accurately portrayed, even on Urban maps you're a million times more likely to be shot than get close enough for h2h, just as it was. And like all realistic games, one shot deaths are by far the most common.

I picked up Valdis Story. Seems kind of cool so far. Metroidvania style game. I need to find a manual or something for it because I'm a bit confused by some of the mechanics.

Link to game manuals is normally on the store page.

I love Rogue Legacy. I got to max level on it, which is really special for me because I almost never finish games.

I got in on Kerbal Space Program a long time ago, and it's really fun if anyone is into that sort of thing. I'm in an orbit between "Earth" and "Mars" right now. The soundtrack for being in space is fantastic.

Same here. Exited out of the client to fix an issue and now I can't log back in or access the webpage.
