    Microsoft Flight just appeared on Steam. I got bored of it after 1 or 2 hours, but maybe that's because I refused to pay for any of the DLC.

    Also a bit late, but that flask is truly amazing.

    Microsoft pisses on the grave of their own franchise, once among the greatest in PC gaming, which they willfully killed through callous neglect.

    Huh? Blur is incredible. Unless by "casual racer" you mean you want something like Forza with a tad less realism.

    Blur is like Mario Kart for adults. It's great god damn fun, but I'm not sure what the online presence is like any more. It's an arcade racer. With missiles.

    What I love is that some of the manufacturers didn't want them allowing you to change the car's paint. But it's totally okay if the car shoots missiles out its ass and explodes into a flaming wreck. Just keep that paint fire-engine red.

    Capsized is good times. It's NOT a Metroidvania though. Don't buy this looking for one. It's a 2D shooter with platforming and crazy physics. Crazy, crazy physics. You get a jetpack too, and a nifty Gravity Ram that has all kinds of neat applications.

    JETPACK.

    The online presence was gone two weeks after the game's release. There were never enough people to populate the bigger race modes (24 people I think) at all.

    The graphics are lackluster, the matchmaking options are almost non existent, the track selection is small, the car selection is padded out with dumb variations of the same vehicles (great, now I have a rusty one, just what I wanted!) and off-road vehicles that are basically useless on all but a couple of tracks, performance is spotty and plagued by inexplicable slowdown and lag (have fun starting a race a full lap behind everybody else!).

    Blur sucks ass.

    And I have oral surgery on Friday so I'm gonna be all zorbed out on painkillers with impaired judgment and shit. Oh god I should cancel my checking account now just to be safe.

    I really want to get Crusader Kings 2, and M&B......and who knows what Steam itself is going to do. This could get ugly.

    I cannot stress how much you need to buy CK2. It's an astonishing work.

    Also, is LA Noire Steamworks? If it is, that's a killer deal.

    According to that list, Sword of the Stars Complete Collection is only $6 for that sale. That's also a fantastic deal; unlike its sequel, it's a legitimately good game at the moment.

    I really, really do need to get CK2, but I think I'll hold out and hope that it's cheaper during the summer sale.
