    Shogun is awesome, but goddamn does it take a long time to load every screen. Anything that can fix this?

    And do we get one more daily deal, or does the Winter sale start in 45 minutes?

    Yeah, I've got the long loading times too. Spoils what is otherwise a cracking game.

    What're your system specs?

    How do I join said PA group?

    Well, I mean, you can make a giveaway for any group.

    The main Steam PA group is just called Penny Arcade. You need someone to invite you to it. Which I would do, except we don't appear to be friends on Steam. You should link to your profile so people can friend you.
    Done and done, Steam info in my sig.
    I don't know if I was added or not in the last thread, just checking.

    A huge thank you to the ever classy @iolo for the gift of Demigod.

    I feel like a horrible person because I've been playing TOR for the past few days and didn't even notice he had sent it. Thank you again.

    The cheap bastard in me disagrees. That is still 4x what I'm willing to pay for that game. And that's me being generous. Frankly they ought to be paying me to play it at this point. >.>

    Think it'll be cheaper than this at Xmas?

    I want Dead Island, but already have a backlog the size of Newell's sweat pants.

    but already have a backlog as untouched as Newell's sweat pants.

    While it makes sense that he would wear sweat pants, I hear he doesn't because he wears out the crotch too quickly.

    Guys. Gaben doesn't do sweats because he has a closet full of moneysuits.

    Like these, but much, much bigger:

    Guys, I'm stuck between excited and terrified.

    This is my first Winter Sale.

    All your stories... I'm about to experience it all for the first time.

    As a side note, I want to reinforce that people should make it obvious from their Steam Account who they are on these forums - preferably by changing their Steam Screen Name to match their forum ID. Given how fast you have to move to outgift people like Minor Incident and Iolo, I'm gonna really lean towards people I can recognize right from the Checkout Screen.

    Also, please Newell, let SPAZ hit 5 bucks.

    Girder your loins, boys, for we stand upon the precipice of an age of new and untold horrors. Many of us won't survive the Sale, but those that do will earn their place at the table of the Newell.

    This will be my third Steam Christmas sale, I suspect we're in for quite a ride this time around. Especially if those big low priced gift packs make a comeback.

    But some go bankrupt and have their houses repossessed.

    It's a very good game. More RPG than you might expect at first glance, with the best melee combat in a video game since Riddick.

    It does have flaws, and a few bugs, but if you're interested, I think $20 is fair. Any cheaper would be a steal.

    I'd say it's a guarentee SPAZ hits 5 bucks. It had a price drop from 15 to 10 dollars. It has a Xmas achievement. It'll hit at least 50 percent off sometime during the sale.

    What's the point of stacking the winter objectives in such a rush that some are working on? The rewards would be on a 1st come 1st serve basis?

    This is great news!

    Actually, I think I'm looking forward even more to discovering games I'd never thought of before via Sale than clearing wishlist games.

    They call em survivors... but when you look in their eyes, you can tell a part of them didn't make it out, like they've seen one to many horrors, far too many frozen credit cards, and too many friends lost to too many game banks.

    Good news, New graphic card will be installed, AND it'll be back just in time for the initial steam freaking out and exploding period should be over!

    I really want to grab spacemarine, but I have a feeling that I'll be able to get it cheaper by the time I get around to actually playing it.

    but then again 25 bucks.

    At least after this sale, we have a good long break until the Summer Sale to clear our backlogs a bit.
