Prototype 2 is only $15.99 which is more than twice what Amazon charged for both P1 and P2 about 2 months ago...lol

Edit:

And the Radnet DLC isn't included here either! Makes it $20.99 for both.

I wanted to check out Whored Mode a little last night... my god, the FPS was at like 3 frames a second. Chugfest. I played 60 hours of this stupid game just fine. It's weird. I haven't changed anything on my computer. Bah. Metro 2033 won't launch. This is my lucky week :P

For SR:TT try verifying the game cache.

Shame Amazon doesn't bring that pack back.

I would note that Spec Ops tries aims to be more realistic than most games. US infantry is quite limited by the amount of ammo they can carry. IIRC the guy with M249 depends on his squadmates to carry ammunition for him. These limitations become for significant for Special Forces. This limitation drives a lot of research into smaller/light ammo: plastic casings, plastic bullets, telescoping bullets, caseless ammunition.

What happened to the cag steam group? It said that it was administratively disabled.

Just a heads up on the dick moves Steam does...lol

Trader's Guild was disabled too...

I'm not surprised. They disabled Hookups a couple of weeks ago citing the same reasons even though it isn't in their TOS from what I read. It is a shame I really liked Hookups (got some great deals on preorders there). Looks like now Valve is cleaning house on other groups that do the same things.

I guess they got pissed off at people pointing out that other places have better prices for games than them.
The only solution is to continuing buying games and steam keys from places other than Steam.

Ill have to go do those two as well. I have almost all the intel, I think I'm missing 3 or 4.

Given all the places you can get Steam keys from that cost less than anything Steam sells, even during their infamous sales, I've been wondering for a while now if Valve was going to clamp down at some point. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they instituted a small charge for each Steam key generated since they have to pay for the bandwidth (apparently Steam is something like the 4th biggest network bandwidth consumer in the world).

Wow, total junk move, amazing!

That's pathetic. That just makes me want to shop elsewhere even more.

Did anybody ever actually use the CAG Steam group? It was full of people I'd never heard of and the chatroom (on the few occasions I had the misfortune to use it) was full of people begging for Skyram.

It was symbolic, and nothing else, for me at least. If I want to look for deals, I come here. The unmoderated, heavily-swollen CAG Steam group is the last place I'd look.

On the plus side, today's the start of a three day weekend. Grump over!

I only beg for skyram here

makes me want to get DRM free games even more

It had definitely turned symbolic. But before the Steam Gifts thing it was a lot smaller and people did try to get group play going and they would announce good deals that would sometimes get to me before I got to CAG. That said, it's more the principle than anything else. I wonder if it has anything to do with their new marketplace where they want people to sell Steam inventory items through them.

So after a little bit of work I now have Alice Madness Returns on Steam complete with the Costume/Weapon DLC and a working copy of American McGee's Alice launchable thru Madness Returns. Very happy!

Also, page 700
