So I should wait to get L4D 1&2 until that starts?
You only need 2 I believe they made it where you can play the previous maps from l4d1 in l4d2 now. Also it depends, if you really want to play them now go for it, if you can wait they will at least be that price again.

 
Actually L4D 1&2 probably won't go any lower, unless you're planning on picking up the Valve Complete Pack which will be on sale during the Summer Sale and has every Valve game for $49.99.
I was in the middle of typing almost this exact same post when I got the alert that two other posts had been made while I was slowly typing mine. So I'll just say...I second this.

Didn't see it mentioned, but Killing Floor is on sale with a free weekend for whatever reason until the 11th. Also all its DLC is -50%.



 
Hm interesting.  I've been meaning to get L4D2 for years now (I loved L4D1) but couldn't pull the trigger in the past.  Now that it has cards I feel like I can kill two birds with one stone haha.  

If anyone is getting a 4 pack of L4D2 or 6 pack of Killing Floor I would be interested :)

 
Thanks to CAGs posting shift keys...  I know this will be a partial repeat...

There have been three shift keys issued today, all should be good till the 8th.

It's a tie-in with their annual Summer event, with carnie-themed zeds, maps, and achievements.

And please let's no go there with the comparisons of Killing Floor and Left 4 Dead. KF is co-op only, buckle down and survive against waves of zombies, and is time/grind intensive to get your skills to a level where you can survive higher levels of difficulty, with a generally n00b-friendly community. L4D is both co-op and team-versus (but far more entertaining in the latter), where you sprint from the start of a map to its finish, which can be dominated out of the box by a highly skilled FPS player, and has a near-universally atrociously unwelcoming player base.

Also, L4D has tons more polish (writing and voice-acting) than KF (no true narrative and 1 set of voice commands / exclamations for male characters and one for females).

I love both, but still prefer L4D.

 
I have Borderlands 2 but I haven't installed/played. If I redeem this shift keys, are they permanent?
You need to run BL2 to redeem shift keys. They give you golden keys that work on a loot chest in Sanctuary. 1 key = 1 shot at lewt. Shift keys are typically only valid for 1-3 days, One redemption. You can (and are advised to) stockpile them.

Also see http://orcz.com/Borderlands_2:_Golden_Key

 
Last edited by a moderator:
So once I redeem the code, the golden key for the chest itself expires after a set time?
The codes themselves often expire (after a set time period or number of keys redeemed). Once you redeem them you get to keep the keys indefinitely. I don't know for certain, but my guess is that they are within the cloud save (or at least registered through Gearbox's Shift service) and they would be persistent across installations (if for some wild reason you should choose to uninstall).

Don't lie, you like a white background... all the better to burn our eyes with. (My pink-dominant avatar makes it easy for me to spot my posts.)
Kinda my thing; if your eyes aren't burning, then I'm really not living up to my name...but since now I've gotta show off my card, I guess a big long post with too many quoted replies will suffice

Does anyone want to go to Dairy Queen?
No, once I go outside, yes

IMO you made the right call. I found it became a huge grind to beat the further it went on, and the story was the only part worth playing for (well that and the between level songs). Overall though I found it hugely disappointing and overated. I still can't understand all the praise it gets, but I guess it just wasn't for me *shrugs*
It only gets praise cause it looked so pretty at the time, had anticipation backing it, and of course anything Twin Peaksy is golden...on that note, everyone who loves Twin Peaks-like stuff, play Deadly Premonition, its definitely one of the best underrated titles of the current console gen (play on PS3 if possible, alot of annoying crap was fixed in that release)

I have a key for War Of the Roses that I got from some Amazon Paradox bundle earlier this year. I never redeemed it because I don't care for games that are multiplayer only, and I never bothered to sell it because I'm lazy. Should I now use the key even though I know that I'll never play the game, just to get the cards?
If you're not giving it to me, then yes, exploit your key for the precious pennies you can get!

If you're lucky that is. I got the retro Groupee bundle but still haven't got my Steam key for Bleed. Fired off an email to their support and still haven't heard back.
Weird, have you tried endlessly click the icon in your bundles page? Maybe after 23 clicks it'll show up

You guys got your wishes granted!

Sonic Hits Collection - $29.99 $7.49 75% OFF *includes Transformed!
Grabbed the sonic hits pack just for racing transformed. Always nice to get in on a pricing error.
fuck, and its never nice to miss out on them! On that topic, if anyone has an extra, I'd like to buy it (if at cost), it'd be a good gift for my sonic obsessed friend's birthday today

I really hope people are liking these posts that J-Shacks has been doing with the CAG card drops. You should especially do this if he does your card. Though I've liked almost all of them.

EDIT lol, and as I'm typing this, he does mine...again. Thanks man. I'll change it over in a minute.
I always avoid click those like buttons because it feels to facebooky...does anything actually come out of getting a bunch of post likes?

So anyone care to explain to me why my avatar is not showing its animation??
Old one worked and still works fine

But this new one won't show its animation...

Just be warned, prices are dropping and I'm having a hard time selling
Looks like I'm going to live to regret this decision. Got one card and the lowest price was 69 cents so I listed at 66, now there's 2 guys cheaper than me already and nothin is selling. I hope the game is good, I only bought it to break even and get a free game.

Update, the 2 cards below me have sold but there are two new ones in their place. Maybe people are buying after all.

I enjoyed X-2, it had one of the better job systems in awhile. If I recall Dark Knight was broken awesome.
Amen. Also, badass soundtrack.

I say might as well, chances are you'll make as much from selling the cards as you would selling the game IMO.
Very unlikely. The cards only go for around $1.50, while you could probably sell the game for $5.


I have never had a foil drop :wall:

ES + Disharmony for $11.54. I think basegame was $8.99 and expansion was $9.99 or something like that. It has been on my wishlist for a long long time. Not quite the magic 75%, but cheap enough for a 4x junkie to get a quick fix.

Also caaaaardz
$39.99 total MSRP

$11.54 glitch price + $1.80 card profit = $9.74

75.64391097774444% off

Not to mention the new DLC is excellent and only came out about a week ago.


Depends on the particular game. Games like BF4 and Crysis will probably run on low-to-medium, while older titles like L4D should run on medium-to-high. Same goes or racing games.
Ehh, the 650M is a pretty solid card. Guaranteed L4D/2 will run on max settings no problem. He could probably run most games on medium-to-high, bar stuff like BF4 (which isn't even out, so who knows how the optimization will be).


Is it possible to wirelessly hook up a xbox 360 controller to my laptop?
Buy this. Period.


Between 1K to 1.5. I was looking at sager and xotic custom laptops. At or under 1K would be ideal but I had 1.5K earmarked for a new TV that I can leverage.
Xotic is great. That's where I bought my Clevo P370EM (or Sager NP9370).


Also, L4D has tons more polish (writing and voice-acting) than KF (no true narrative and 1 set of voice commands / exclamations for male characters and one for females).
Which is why it's weird how Killing Floor is so much better. :)

So far I've gotten 3 cards, sold 2. When I first checked (before buying the game) those two would have sold for $1.20, they actually sold for a combined $0.92. I'll be suprised if I reach $1.75 out of the $2.25 cost.
