    Lego Batman 2 is pretty great. I haven't played a lot of the Lego games, so when I picked it up and gave it a spin, I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Certainly gotten me more interested in the Lego stuff in general.

    I wish Steam had a button to hide all DLC that you already own. I'm looking at Civ5's massive list of DLC, and I know I already own some of it, but I can't remember which. It's such a pain to visit each product page individually to see if I own it or not.

    ... And just after I said "Hey, I'm good," @Elin sends me a copy of Cargo! It's on my wish list more as a curiosity thing than anything - after seeing the weird as fuck Giant Bomb Quick Look, I've always wanted to see how far down the rabbit hole goes.

    Now I'm gonna find out.. or lose my mind in the process.

    You guys are awesome. Fucking amazing.

    Is the fact that I had bacon and pecan pie for breakfast bad?

    I think I need a new gaming laptop, I'm still stuck in bed with this damn back issue and it's too much of a hassle to try and move my tower I to the bedroom so I haven't gotten to play steam games this break. Not cool at all. I ended up buying FF V on the PSN since a PS3 is easier to move. All of you must play Steam games more so I can live vicariously through you.

    @Elin, I glanced at your sig as I was reading your post and thought for a moment that you'd played 309 hours of Skyrim in the last 2 weeks.

    It made me feel quite inadequate until I read closer. :)

    Yes!!

    Or no!!

    I am in no way going to have time to play it before Winter Sale. So tempting though. Steampunk First Person stealth with a slight Lovecraft vibe?

    Tell me to buy it, Steam Thread. Get me over the hump

    Buy it or else I'll gift you Bad Rats AND Revelations 2012

    That is NOT a proportionate response!!

    What have we become, guys? We have let the ridiculous cheapness of terrible games blind us to the war crimes we commit. Do we no longer consider the consequences of our actions? How the impact others, nay the very fabric of human civilization? Have we not considered that this may be the Newell's plan all along? That he wishes humanity to eat itself from within via Bad Rats?

    We must resist the darkness! Do not take the easy, dark path! Fight the urge to spite gift!

    To be honest, at least 2/3 of that time is my husband. I think he beat it twice. I stopped playing once I explored to whole map. You play it your way, I'll play it mine. I may have missed a tiny point of interest or 2, but I think I found pretty near to everything there was to explore.

    Do I need to have played 'Digital: A Love Story' before I play 'Analogue: A Hate Story'?

    And what are the oddest games on Steam at the moment? I want to load up on Indie weirdness.

    Torchlight 2 at $9.99 is nice as I need to pick it up for my brother-in-law for Christmas, but I think I'll just wait for the winter sale.

    And Dishonored @ $29.99? You've already been beaten by Amazon AND GMG, Steam. C'mon already.

    Is Dishonored a Steamworks game? I do like my games being on Steam, but at the same time I also enjoy purchasing them as cheaply as possible.

    Also, I don't see Dishonored on GMG at all.

  • Fig-DFig-D Tustin, CA, USRegistered User regular
    Shoot, @Fig-D tried to give me Psychonauts while I was sleeping, but I already have two copies!

    BTW, how do you send a message through Steam. I feel very dumb.

    You should take it off your wishlist then :P . I thought you were committing the Steam's cardinal sin. Its right there at the bottom: wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, gluttony, and not owning Psychonauts.

    Yeah, I thought about it a bit more and I can hold off on Torchlight II for now. I have Darksiders II arriving for my 360 on Tuesday and I know I won't be playing TL2 anytime soon.

    As an aside, it's nice getting friend requests that aren't just people trying to get TF2 hats out of me or advertise to me.

    @Jam Warrior You should also check McPixel, one of the games from Steam Greenlight. From what I've seen it's a crazy and fun little indie game with a great sense of humor. The only other weird game I can think of right now is E.Y.E but I'm sure someone else will recommend even weirder games.

    @Jam Warrior Just putting in a suggestion for Cargo: Quest For Gravity it's possibly the weirdest indie game I've ever played.

    Also Analogue is pretty much a stand alone game.

    Hmmm am a little torn with the Batman thing. I really enjoyed AA and you guys telling me this is even better is very tempted but on the other hand if I spend any more money I may end up divorced! :) I think I will wait for the Christmas sale, it will surely be on sale then won't it.......won't it......

    Yes, I think Dishonored is Steamworks. At least the copy from GMG is Steamable. Try this link: http://www.greenmangaming.com/s/gb/en/pc/games/action/dishonored/

    I own Batman AC on PC (got it with my video card) but I never played it since I went through it on consoles. Now I'm feeling the itch to play it again with everyone praising it but buying the GOTY Edition would actually be cheaper that buying all the DLC by themselves. That kinda sucks.

    Hey Steam thread! Yeah you!

    If I have the original Arkham City but never got around to playing it (it was cheap, but I've since had soooo many other games to get through!), should I get the GOTY or is it all just challenge maps? The steam page doesn't mention anything.

    Thanks!
