Yeah :/ I'm still waiting on Torchlight I (+75%!).

Does anyone know if Steam has a product activation limit or throttle? I was activating a ton of stuff and now it is showing invalid key for everything (even though the keys are valid steam keys).

Any recommendations on Auditorium? Looking at gameplay trailers and it looks like you look at a lot of colors on screen and you try to make the music connect. Just got it and wanted to see if I want to keep it.

I'm not too enthused about it at this point.

Krater looks like a great candidate for the Humble Indie Bundle, I'm mildly interested in it but my backlog just got bigger with all the games I just got over the last few days, I think I will wait for it to go cheaper.

Wasn't Alice $4.99?

Auditorium was in an Indie Royale bundle. There is a rumor that if enough people demand it they might bring back some of their bundles, but it is only a rumor. I haven't played it, but it is on my steam library so I might give it a try one day.

yes it was

So is the Ys game in the indie bundle worth five dollars? What's it like? (beyond being an arpg...at least, that's what it looks like in the video).

I for one is relieved that Batmans came on sale again. Missed it this weekend.

I get the sense that he's in a different territory from his post.

Steam is just down right now. I can't even buy Costume Quest or vote in the Community Vote. Try again later.

I don't have a horse in this race. I'll vote for Krater as soon as the mobile app loads up. I'm too lazy to go through the whole double verification to sign in on my work computer :P

I'm just bummed that Arkham Asylum isn't down to the $5 that it was during the holiday sale. It's only $1.something more now, but it's just a bummer to me.

I have absolutely no interest in Gotham City Imposters, so the bundle has no value to me.

Anyone else having trouble connecting to Steam? The store, News, and community pages are blank.

Heh, my friend will be happy as well. I swear, every night after he's gone to bed, either a flash deal or community vote comes up with something he wants. Arkham City and Fallout: New Vegas were both things he'd really been holding out for, but they both went on sale literally the sale after he logged out for the night.

Was thinking of maybe getting Quinn DLC, but then heard about the horror stories on the activation of the DLC through GFWL. I don't want to pay money for that.

Was also thinking possibly getting Crysis 2. But then I think its EA and it doesn't have achievements. IDK. Anyone recommend Crysis 2 really fast?

Prolly pickup stacking, though.
Voted Krater. I'd pick it up for 7.50, even if it is kinda broken. Anything to ward off D3.

I'd definitely say yes if you enjoy action RPGs. The gameplay video shows exactly how it plays.

Someone in the last thread also mentioned that Arkham City only allows a limited number of installs (and apparently you can only get that reset a couple of times too), so keep that in mind before you grab that. I know that'd be a huge dealbreaker for me.

Hope the service smooths out in time for the update.
