AFAIK, those should still be available. I just went back to old humble bundles (before the gifting) recently and keys that I had redeemed still had the key in those areas. Ones I had not redeemed still had the "Click Button to redeem" button.

Last time I checked, the auto redemption was only for the newer bundles. The one ones still provided keys.

I do not see a giftbox button next to those in the picture so they might be already redeemed.

Thanks for the info, if anyone wants any of these PM me, first come first served.

Edit: Only Limbo left.

So now I'm kicked off the Steam Marketplace until the 2nd because I had the audacity to add more money to my account to buy more crap. Fan-F'ing-tastic. I swear if I wasted all this time and don't even get that badge at the end of it I'm gonna go ballistic.

I believe that any time you change your method of payment you risk being locked out of the market and it seems as though they tighten that up right around big sales.

It's irritating that they don't spell that out or at least warn you in some way.

Personally, I always just buy Steam Cards so it doesn't matter if I decide to pay cash or choose a different credit card.

So I've been going through my Humble account and I have a quick question on Humble Bundle Steam Keys:

I'm not sure if these are used, I've had keys that looked like the above, but they were already activated.

Funny, I bought that bundle ages ago, and was just this minute playing A Virus Named Tom. Good game, but the cards are dropping slow. I'm half done, and only have 2 cards.

Yeah, that's what happened. I normally add money through Paypal, but wanted to use my card today because I added money to my Paypal account so I could buy from BundleStars because they no longer take my card, but you have to pay out of your Paypal balance when you have any, but couldn't do that because I haven't gotten the bundle yet and adding to that balance takes days...now I have no idea where my money is.

But I'm pretty sure it's all working it's way back to Valve in the long run, so they shouldn't be so damn picky.

Yeah. I was going to mention this before stuff. It was also $3 on the Steam Summer sale, though HB Store nets you the (MysterD-bait) version too. I've been tempted, but I don't see myself getting around to it anytime soon.

Yeah - I like when companies offer up both a DRM-FREE version + Steam-key version. :D

Best of BOTH worlds. :D

There's three -- based around Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. There were originally going to be free holiday content updates last year (the've been in the Steam files that long) but Pitchford thought it would be a great idea to charge people $3 each. Only bother if you're a complete Borderlands addict and need to see EVERYTHING Gearbox puts out. To my knowledge there isn't even any unique weapons/mods/whatever. Just skins.

I still havent gotten the Tiny Tina skins, did they ever release those? I got the heads via shift code.

Ahhhhh, now I see why you needed Psychonauts - you need it for the Bingo Card!

You're not needing the actual game!

So, I had a bit of time to try out some of my new racing games and setup. First off, the G27 is a respectable wheel. In its price range it's probably the best you can get. (Don't we all want Fanatec setups?) Good resistance and decent force feedback. The mechanical deadzone is a little wider than I'd prefer, but still perfectly tolerable. The pedals have believable resistance, especially the brake and it allows for good modulation. I didn't get to try out the clutch and shifter setup, but the pedal feels similar to my Honda Civic, but certainly lighter than my Integra with 3400lb dual diaphragm pressure plate (though, that actually would be nice IMO). Also, my current cheapy computer desk will not be up to the task of using this wheel long term as 900 degrees of aggressive motion is no match for flimsy Office Depot particle board. Time to pull my spare Sparco seat out and build a rig.

I decided to play around with Trackmania first (huge thanks to Ashes!) and I've come to the conclusion I'm much better at standard asphalt racing/physics than the alternative. As such, I had the easiest time with Valley which is similar to touring car type racing. Tight lines and aggressive entry seem to pay off. Canyon is very much a drift style title with its plethora of turns that reward late entry and tail happy corner exit. Stadium is pretty much an automotive playground and I actually had the hardest time catching on with it. Physics were questionable at times, but were at least fairly consistent from what I played. All three are pleasing to the eye and had that Pinball FX2 'let me try one more time' type quality.

Assetto Corsa while still an Early Access game is remarkable. Arcade racers are best waiting in the media center because this sim is all about realism. From the feel of the tire on the edge of friction loss to the sound of loose gravel exiting the wheel wells after a turn taken too wide, NFS this is not. For what is there, the sights, sounds and feel are all pretty impressive. I'm going to have to play around with this control-wise to get it just right, however. The default G27 setup in the game would not recognize my external shifter, nor clutch pedal (maybe it's not implemented yet?) and the steering was waaaaaaay to touchy. I was too lazy to actually mess with anything settings wise, so I just adapted.

And totally off topic, I just recently watched The Avengers and Star Trek: Into Darkness. Having kept myself in the dark with both movies (which was no small feat), I was pleasantly rewarded. The Avengers exceeded my expectations and was very much the sci-fi ensemble film that I was hoping for. No one character really overshadowed the other which kept me interested throughout the duration. Star Trek lived up to my (admittedly high) expectations, barely. The movie on a whole was enjoyable, but I felt it could have used some more emphasis on the supporting cast as well as a bit tighter narrative. Some of the old movie references were a nice touch, but isn't it time to branch out in the alternate time line. Maybe for the next one?

That is all.

slacker for ur movies side i watch in mvoie theather without wasting my money only on food tho ehhe

 
So instead of the  arguably greatest pool game which also has the highest % off, people voted for the lowest % off title,  that's also going to be a  FREE TO PLAY game, that's just charging 20 dollars to get in early that isn't even done yet.

I don't even have words

My house > any movie theater (with exceptions to IMAX). It's cheaper, I don't have to sit with the common rabble and the dress code is much more forgiving (no shirt, no shoes, no ______, no problem).

No wonder people are spamming early access titles. People will pay it and if it's garbage they can say it's not done yet.

I thought Don't Starve is only for PS4?

Also, we do pay a little per month for PS+ so it's not technically free and you can only play them as long as you have an active subscription.

meh. i got ps+ from amazon black friday....that comes out to 2.50 a month. more than worth it...especially when you get into the fact that you'll occasionally get sum ps exclusives. plus it comes with a bunch of games right of the bat, like ico/shadow of the colossus and dragon's dogma.

shhhh, logic hurts

an xbox really isn't worth getting (exclusives are shit, imho...gears and halo. that's about it), but a playstation is. I got the arkham origins/last of us bundle for 200 bucks...when you take into account that a lot of people will pay more than this for a video card alone, the hardware really isn't a bad deal. Some of the best games the past five or six years or so have been ps exclusives (last of us, god of war, infamous, resistance, demon's souls, uncharted, ico/shadow of the colossus, etc). Love my PC but I'm not afraid to admit I still got some luv for dat console peasant lyfe
