    Is there somewhere you can go just to see all the bundles listed? ESPECIALLY publisher bundles?

    I don't want to have to go into every single game to look for them.

    Last year they had so many great bundles for sale...but it seems like the bundles are - at best - franchise packs and even then it's hard to find which franchises have bundles for sale.

    @zagdrob

    This might help.

    Anyone interested in Toki Tori 1?

    I bought the Two Tribes bundle last night, but already had the first game.

    PM me with your Steam name if you're interested.

    @Isorn and @taliosfalcon are classy monsters of the highest order who gifted me with Star Wars pinball tables and Speedrunners respectively.
    As much as a I appreciate the gifts and love both of them dearly for their kindness, this won't be forgotten and I won't be incapable of retribution forever.
    You guys are both on the list.

    @Berylline just sped by and gifted me SpeedRunners!

    Definitely enjoyed watching the Giant Bomb guys playing it. I look forward to trying it out myself.

    Thanks!

    Seriously, has anyone else run into this problem? Steam declines your card, the bank says the reason they were given is your CVV2 code is wrong but you are clearly entering the right numbers and your card works fine everywhere else? Halp.

    Have you been to Target in the past month?

    Our two cards (different accounts) stopped working last night, and when we called the bank they said they were automatically deactivated because of the data breach at Target.

    Are you sure your card is working elsewhere since you tried to use it on Steam and had it declined?

    @PrjctD_Captain, the groups are locked during major sales. You'll have to hold out until the new year I'm afraid.

    I wish you had an option to just buy stuff and play stuff without all these stupid cards shitting up your inventory. I don't want cards, badges, or achievements, for that matter. Just sell me the games, and let me play the games, without giving all this junk to my account.

    Yup, checked with the bank this morning AND used it to make a small donation to another Children's Hospital charity just to make sure. However it appears it is working again now after I submitted a ticket to Steam support.

    Hard Reset is awesome. It's hard. Like honestly hard. My first playthrough I had to dial down to easy from normal because of frustration, but slowly I got the hang of the mechanics and started having a lot more fun with it. Now replaying the campaign on higher difficulties is enjoyable again. I recommend the game. And the dlc campaign is good (I think it's free, but not sure).

    Sell them.

    I usually have zero to marginal interest in cards and badges, but you can sell pretty much any card on the marketplace and make a few pennies (at least) worth of free Steam wallet money.

    Yeah, looks like the DLC is included. I haven't played the DLC yet, although I started it without realizing it. It basically jumps right into the DLC when you beat the base game. No credits or anything like that.

    I really do need to get back to it.

    I think I have enough in my wallet to finally nab AC3 if it goes on a flash/daily. So I am mulling over whether to wait for that, or just wait and put that towards Thief in February.

    I guess. That's still more effort than I want to put in for shit I didn't want in the first place. Wish you could just toggle that stuff off in your account options...

    If you dont want them, you could always just sell them on the market for free money.

    If you can swing it, get the Washington DLC, too. The animal powers are awesome and make Connor super mobile despite the lower skyline of colonial America. Also, double assassinating fools as a super-awesome spirit eagle is pretty great.

    I feel pretty much the same way about the cards. However, like everyone else is saying. Sell them. The $0.10 or so you get off every card adds up to a free game pretty durn quick. Especially around sale time.

    I own AC3 and haven't played it yet, and you described a whole bunch of mechanics I had NO idea were in this game.

    Congratulations to @MTS? Don't know if that's your actual forum handle or not, but I've sent you a friend request to give you your magical diary!

    @Ultrahonky: Lord of the Jive Turkeys I have a bunch of LLtQ cards if you happen to have any Magical Diary and/or XCOM cards you can trade me for them. I'm heading out to work so just send me a trade offer and I'll look at it when I get back.

    Today I made my first attempts at trading cards and it seems really inefficient. It's great that Steam shows which friends have a particular card you're missing, but to make an offer, you have to look over the other person's inventory, see which games line up, then look for cards they're missing from a set. Ideally, Steam would display which of your cards that are missing from the other's sets and weight them against the current market values so you can offer something useful and roughly fair with the click of a button.

    Then again, I'm sure Steam would rather cards be bought and sold on the market for a small fee.

    yeah, just post all your cards on the market for a couple cents below the going rate; they'll sell immediately and you'll wind up with a couple bucks subtracted from your next purchase

    alternatively (if you don't find that to be worth your time), just ignore them? They can safely pile up without causing any trouble
