    Steam+ Deals Mega Thread (All PC Gaming Deals)

    Wow, I picked the right day to check up on CAG.  Nothing like that new thread smell.

    Steam Deals Thread V12 ~ Summer Sale on Now!

    I wonder which lousy sale he'll bitch about first. I need to post 9 8 more times before I can start ridiculing you. Please be patient, I should have sufficient post count by September or so. Someone in your marketing department should have thought that name through, Amazon. With all the...

    What is Dr. Who's real name?

    Yes, but it's pronounced "Throatwobbler Mangrove".

    Per the article at RPS, there was a 10GB patch that made the game playable for Nvidia owners, but AMD owners are still out of luck. In other words... if you're dumb enough to pay full price for a game at launch, be sure to pay the extra money for Team Green too. (I should point out that my...

    It had something called Olegs, which were TOTALLY ORIGINAL and NOT A KNOCKOFF AT ALL and anyone who says otherwise is just a mean poopyhead.

    It was $2 on Steam during the last Winter Sale. If it's the only title you want in the bundle, $5 might be a bit steep. Here's the dirty little secret about Universe Sandbox: there's no game. It's an astrophysics sandbox simulator. You can crash the Earth into the sun a dozen different...

    Strategy First. Where "AAA" refers to the batteries we use to operate our QA apparatus.

    Replace "paywall" with "grindwall", and I'd agree with the original statement. Most of the heroes cost 200 or 400 Eternity Splinters, and you earn 200 ES for completing the first 8 chapters, plus additional splinters fall during gameplay... so yeah, grindwall. The only items in the game that...

    I've said before that I would gladly buy a copy of Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing for a dollar. Just for laughs. Air Control looks like it might end up in the same waste-a-dollar-for-drunken-hilarity compost heap. As founding father Benjamin Franklin once said, "A snitch, in time, gets my...

    Not only is there no apparent plan for the Big Two, every attempt to get one of the other DC heroes on screen seems to be a half-hearted, half-assed effort. (Ryan Reynolds? Seriously?) Marvel is hitting home runs* because (a) they're getting top-level talent, both in front of and behind the...

    Boy, is he in for a surprise. "Okay, I think I'm ready to take notes... hey, what's that thing? Those spiky bits look -- hey, what are you doing? Put that WHERE??"

    I wonder whether they've actually acquired the rights, or whether they're just filing for trademarks in order to smoke the IP holder out of hiding. It could be that they're just using this filing to discover who they need to negotiate with in order to bring the games out of limbo. Either way...
