Thanks - guess it's Indie night in the Lohan household since I have a HIB3 code waiting for me to redeem and I'll be buying this batch too. And to be honest, I'll probably cave and buy Rain Slick 3.
Anyone know how the Lego Batman 2 port is on the PC? Does it offer any kind of improvements over the console versions?
It looks great and runs really smoothly so that's the normal pc improvement. The game is amazing fun and also costs less than half what it costs on console.
I don't think he is either, but I also think that doesn't make his point of "just because it's a source game doesn't mean it should get a free pass" any less valid in this case. If Valve wants to troll people, don't do it with the customer's money and in an industry with no return policy.
Also, in honor of the universe granting me another son, I have seen fit to bring gifts to you all, as gifts have been brought to me. Announcing the Charles Wallace / David Bowie annual fun-run Pro-Am Babe With the Power Giveaway!

I don't think someone putting a game that doesn't sell very well on sale to increase sales is really "Trolling."
Question: If I buy extra copies of PAA3, do I continue to get the gift pack per copy, or is it a once off?
I believe the deal applies to each copy, though I am unsure. In the inventory it is listed as "Penny Arcade's on the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness 3 Launch Bundle" so I would assume that you get the extra games

I(and he) were more specifically referring to the fact that the game was even allowed on Steam at all. (Note: the CynicalBrit video was done a good month before it went on sale)
So, I'm sitting on a Steam copy of The Sims 3 that I accidentally bought (I was getting it for my son and accidentally bought 2). Is there anyone with a specific interest in owning a copy or should I simply set up a Steam Gift for it?

Do we know how much quality control Valve has for the games that go on Steam? I mean, Bad Rats is on there, so they obviously don't turn away all the crap. Maybe only the crap they don't expect people to buy gets turfed? If so, that's less about quality control and more about sales.
A game being "bad" is (usually) such a subjective experience that I can see why The Newell may not want to deal with the issue at all.

I'd be interested in that. It's one of those games I've wanted to play, but not wanted to buy.
If there's much interest, by all means put up a SteamGift, but if nobody else wants it I'd gladly take it off your hands...

I have interest and would assume others here do as well. Steamgifts are always appropriate I would think.
So lo and behold I log in to Steam and I have nay not ONE but TWO gifts sitting there for me from the classy gent Handgimp. What a lovely surprise. And now I must speak in the tongue of the beast of grimdark!

you get the bonus games when you add ep3 to your account and you can only do that once. I assume that the giftee would receive all 3 but I haven't been able to test yet.

I've got one so far and it's a PA'er to boot. For shame sir.. For Shame!
this is the behavior i've come to expect from PA
They all have little Steam icons above them that says "Redeem it on Steam". I'd say you're good.
Watching that just made me feel bad for the creators. Jesus
Dear Penny Arcade Forum Steam Thread reader,
Are you feeling even slightly interested in Revelations 2012, today's Steam daily deal?
Please, before committing mental apocalypse:
1. Consider watching the following informative video.
2. Proceed to avoid that game like The Black Death

No doubt most people who want these have these already, but they sure did no good sitting in my inventory.
Short contest. Prize is a copy of the new Rainslick game.
Rules are draw me a picture of Sonic the Hedgehog in MS paint and PM it to me.
Contest runs til I wake up, so at least 5 hours from now probably.
Someone else should like, quote this in a couple pages so others can see it, since I'll be asleep and all.
I also have three gift passes for RO2, if anyone wants them.

His portion starting around 5:40 about how this game even got on Steam makes me mad at Newell.
Thanks! Been entering Steamgifts giveaways for Nuclear Dawn all weekend with no luck.

It means people are buying the crap out of PAA3.

You get the bonus copy of BoD7 and CStW for your first purchase only. More than that would be silly.
