    Might have to look into 2033 then, I've always loved the way it looked but was always wary about how it'd run on this aging card of mine.

    man, i've had one of those for three fucking weeks because they keep not giving me enough anti biotics, so i run out, it comes back, i go back in.

    So altitude is really, surprisingly fucking awesome, i was not expecting it to be nearly this good. easily worth the indie air pack price by itself

    Actually, Tidalis will register just fine too, the one I got did anyway. It's got a nice demo too. It's a fun game.

    You know, I was gonna try and have some sort of contest for it, but I can't think of anything really great because Metro is such a depressing game. So instead, PM me before 1pm Pacific and your name will go on a list from which I will randomly choose a winner, who will receive Metro 2033.

    Edit: Oh also the standard 'need to have been a member for a month' thing applies here too.

    Iolo was awesome enough to gift me a copy of Just Cause 2, so I'm passing along the love with a giftpack of Trine today! I already own it, so I have 8 of these puppies to give away.

    What do you have to do? A GOOD DEED.

    I'm serious. Go out and do a good deed, right now. Help an old lady cross the street. Refill the coffee, even though you didn't take the last cup. Be nice to someone you're not normally nice to.

    Then come back here and tell us about it. (Also, PM me because this thread moves too fast and I easily might miss it.)

    We're running on the honour system here, boys and girls.

    MAKE ME PROUD.

    EDIT: BTW, send me an email address I can gift this to when you PM me. If you've already PM'd me and haven't included an email addres, PM me again, please.

    4/8 gone!

    4/8 remaining!

    Still more remaining! Spread Christmas cheer! Do some good deeds! Or have you already done good deeds? Tell me about those instead!

    Hey guys, you want a deal on Civ V, but Steam isn't coming through?

    It's a Steam game, so you'll end up with it in your Steam account, right?

    So. Lead & Gold is a fun little game, it's a LOT like TF2 but the feel of it is different enough to be worthwhile. The different classes play differently enough that you get some variety and whatnot. I bought it when it first came out on sale and had some fun with the 3 PA dudes that got it as well. So if someone were to do a pack of it those people could certainly have some fun with it.

    But then again it might just be easier to play TF2 or something.

    This is my chief concern.

    In order to have fun with it we'd really have to distribute a few packs and play amongst ourselves, but it might be a little short lived.

    Still plenty of Trine remaining! If you've posted in the thread about your good deed but haven't PM'd me, your good deed still counts, but I don't really know about it! PM me and you will get some delicious Trine!

    Alright, hopefully this works, even if it happened before I read this post. :lol:

    So a couple of hours ago, around 11:00, I was waiting for a legal hearing to take place at the State Labor Court, and I see a woman waiting next to me, so I try to start some conversation in order to make waiting a bit more interesting.

    It turns out she wasn't an attorney or a client, but someone that was seeking legal advice regarding her current job; so instead of giving her a business card and setting an appointment, I heard her explain her situation and gave her legal advice, while telling her where she should go in order to get further aid, free of charge.

    Does it count that last night I got out of bed to deliver my old Blackberry to my best friend because she spilled milk on hers and it wouldn't turn on (I didn't want her to be without a phone living alone.) Also, I let everyone in O Chem use my stapler today. And I just scanned and e mailed my O Chem notes to someone because she had to leave class because her dog is dying :(

    They may not have gotten around to putting it on the list but it should register just fine. I saw a post somewheres on the intarweb from Chris Park/x4000 (either Steam forums, or Arcens forums, or here) where he explained that he doesn't want anyone to feel like they have to pay for their games twice.

    At $2/game being a little short lived isn't really a huge deal imo, just need people to go for it.

    If I can get my payment methods to work by tonight, I may start a pack off. $2/game is cheaper than TF2 right now so might be able to get people to play.

    @Cunty: I think today is the last of the sales till Christmas Day or closer to it at least.
