Aww man, I didn't realize how expensive Binary Domain was full priced! I was hoping for something within impulse-buy territory for me at 75% off. Them's the breaks.
OMD2 has me by the balls right now anyway. God damn that game's fun!
I was really hoping with steams hero academy release they would have added a non asynchronous multiplayer option so i didn't have to wait fucking weeks for games to finish, but no such luck =/
I'm sort of disappointed with the price difference between hero academy on phones vs on steam It doesn't seem that they changed anything, but upping both the base game and the DLC from 2 each to 5 each is quite the bump

Thank you very much @cardboard delusions for his classy ninja-gift of The Last Remnant. I shall win every random battle in the game in your honour!

It doesn't really do much to excuse the price difference for dlc in Hero Academy, but it's apparently because they include all the avatars and such that would need to be bought separately.
Either way, it uses the same account so you can always log into your account from any iOS device, say borrowed from a friend or something, and buy just the teams that way. You'll save about four dollars compared to buying the pc client with all dlc bundle, and only be missing out on some avatars.

Remember when I was all "American Nightmare is so good buy it buy it buy it!"
Yeah, fuck Nightmare Arcade.
The dodge mechanic is frustratingly broken. In the course of normal play, simply surviving? It is absolutely no big deal. But trying to score high, which requires you maintain a streak of not getting hit (indeed the best way of increasing your multiplier seems to be farming dodges) and sometimes the game just decides "nope, fuck you, not gonna dodge this time!" and blam, you lose your hard earned streak.
Also frustrating but not so bad is when enemies just appear out of nowhere up yo' butt and attack with no warning. That feels more like it's my fault for leaving myself open, so eh. It's just losing due to the dodge failing. EURGH.
So apparently a lot of people were not aware that you could re-skin your Steam client. If you go to the settings, then Interface, theres an option to pick which skin you'd like to use. I'm currently using PixelVision
Example of the skin on my client here:
I had NO idea you could. Nice skin, thanks for the heads up!

I swear there used to be multiple official skins for Steam, then one day the only option was <default skin>. After that, I kind of forgot/stopped caring about different skins.
Pixelvision is really nice. The only problem I see is that the Community page still has the old look while the others work okay. Does it look like that for everyone else?

Yeah, that was way back before the Webkit-based redesign, when the default skin was this mix of pukey looking grayish-green. Always set it to the "obsidian" skin.
Trine is IGN Prime's free game of the month for members. I don't own it, and am debating whether to use my key or give it away. Thoughts?
Trine is good. I haven't played much of it, but I'd definitely recommend it based on the first couple levels.
I just bought it during the summer sale (and the sequel). If you've ever played the Lost Vikings from Blizzard, it's a spiritual successor to that. Nice platforming game, with some pretty fun physics puzzles thrown in. I'd recommend it easily!

Everything that is just their webbrowser has the grey background. Store page, Community Page, and News Page are just the browser background inserted into the client so it doesn't match as well. But I spend most of my time in the library just staring at games wondering what to play, so that looks nice.

Sp, I know it's not a current topic, but I want to thank whoever gifted my Deus Ex Human Revolution way back during - I think - the Winter Sale.
This game is awesome.
And Adam Jensen clearly had Christan Bale as a vocal coach.
I don't think Jensen gets anywhere close to as ridiculous as Bale's Batman voice
True, but it is a bit similar. I think a really nice thing they could have done is have the VA tone down the growl alot more for the prologue, thus letting you attribute the omnipresent growl to injuries and/or augs.
There is so much I can praise about this game so far (I just got to China), but I don't want to risk too much spoilers.
Something small I DO want to praise is the Hacking Minigame. It is a TON of fun. More so than I think I've ever seen for such a mechanic (far superior to ME/ME2, Bioshock and so forth). Im basically hacking things I have the passwords to because I enjoy it so much (plus the fact that I end up swimming in Praxis doesn't hurt).

The growl is probably my least favorite part of this game. It just sounds so forced and unnatural in the context of everything else; it's a good thing every other part of the game is awesome.

Personally, I think that if we're grading Human Revolution's voice acting on a Deus Ex curve, we're at a solid A+, growl and all.
Ah, it stinks, it sucks, it's anthropologically unjust

Every single voice actor in the original Deus Ex delivered all of their lines as if they were interrupted from eating a sandwich and were in a hurry to just get back into their five dollar footlong.

Okay, so here's the thing. I always thought the nextgenconsole achievement/trophy thing was silly. Now I have a problem. Stupid Steam has the stupid achievements and now I want them. You know, cause they're there. Am I bad? Should I feel dirty?

“No.” You sputter out. The man stops moving and stares at you.
“No? The fuck you mean ‘no’?! I'LL SPANNER YOUR OLD LAIDE SO FUCKING HARD SHE'LL BE CACKIN OUT MINI MES FOR 3 WEEKS!” He readies the rifle at your head. “I'LL BATTER LIZZY TUDOR WITH A GOLF PUTTER COVERED IN DOG CACK, THE FUCK YOU SAY?” You feel tears swelling up a little.
“I said… I said I won’t. I won’t do it!” Dust kicked up from the man’s shouting and sudden movements dances around in the light illuminating the front of his gun and dangling in front of his face. You can see his fiery stare piercing straight through as though they were beacons straight from hell. He moves nary a muscle. “I won’t take lives, even to save my own.”
“So, that’s how it’s gonna be, yeah?” The man shakes his head in bitter disappointment. “Fuck off ya cockbrained mollycoddle.” He strikes your neck with the butt of his rifle, causing you to pass out.
When you come to, you hear cheering from all around you. You open your eyes and are blinded by the light. You give yourself a moment to readjust, the crowd watching from cages above cheering and screaming, spitting down to where you’re sitting. You’re propped up against a wall, a gun in your hands but only a handful of bullets visible in the clear mag. You look around and see several other confused looking, beat up men holding their guns all antsy. You begin to realize where you are. A loud yell erupts from the crowd, and gunshots are heard coming from just around the corner. The current player for The Club has entered the arena and begun his fight, crowd cheering for the Pain Train. You close your eyes and grip your gun tight, it’s your last friend left in the world.

It's more of a hidden item game than I was expecting.
However, the puzzles are challenging, with only one or two using moon logic.
It's my first Steamgifts giveaway for the Penny Arcade group!
Open all weekend. Good luck
