    I've been playing a lot of Star Wars: Empire at War lately. Such a good game. So to that end I've compiled a list of mods of I've been ripping through trying to find my favorite. Here are my thoughts on some of them:

    I don't really dig on RTS games, but this was a really good post and I want to thank you for making it.

    I really should play Empire at War one day. I remember really enjoying the demo when it came out, but I didn't buy the game. Then it came out on Steam and a few years later had a good sale. And so it sits in my inventory, awaiting the day my mouse pointer will click on "Play."

    Just picked up Trine 1&2 in the daily sale. If anyone is up for some coop fun tomorrow feel free to add me, profile is in the sig. Hell add me anyway, I'm relatively new to using Steam as something other than a Portal 2 launcher (foolish i left it this long i know) and need more cool people in my list.

    Community market restrictions are so stupid.

    Why yes, this is the first time I used that credit card to add funds to my steam wallet. Ignore the fact that I've bought games through the store with it before with 0 issue, but block my ability to buy anything in the market for 3 days. Makes perfect sense.

    Well, yeah, this is a safety measure put in place by Steam to protect you and your account.

    For all they know you stole your own credit card from yourself and are going to use it to buy items from the marketplace using your own money which you are then going to use on your own account that you also stole from yourself.

The loss of blood from his eye-sockets led to his brain shutting down in a matter of minutes. The pain was excruciating and lingering his heart made sure to pump as much blood as possible into his brain to prevent death, in fact prolonging his death, and the memory of what he saw.

    Getting better, fanned out and used a recon Aquanaught named Chickenshit to scout for the enemy for the rest of the unit. Been reloading the same mission over and over to get a feel. Unfortunately, Kat Donlan nicked him in a bit of friendly fire.

    huh, republic commando is a hidden treasure apparently? I think I may grab it. been ages since I've bought a steam anything (or posted in here! hello!) but I've been wanting a star wars something since I saw the sale. the dark forces games are appealing but more as a novelty, commando seems like it might be a pretty cool and fresh experience.

    SP runs fine, it's just MP that crashes. Don't think the Steam version would fix it anyway. Back to Battelfront II, I guess.

    Republic Commando is the Star Wars Action Shooter you've never know you've always wanted. Only critique is that its short....but uh.....when you hit the second campaign.....make sure to mash melee button....quickly.

    Geometry Wars is just as frantic and fun as I remembered it was. It's a shame that it doesn't have online leaderboards.. I totally thought it did! Bad job outta me. So that's lame. But it's $1.99 and it's worth that much for the nostalgia alone.

    Mom stepped in.... @DaringDirk‌

    "Scratchy, stahp! Go home, you're drunk! Seriously though, you're gifting too much. It's irresponsible, if you have a tight budget and a family to think about. And I feel the need to occasionally act as the physical (or digital) hand of Karma. All that aside, did you play the KQ games as a kid? I remember people in elementary and junior high sharing secrets about the various games, about the same time people were describing scenes from the Nightmare on Elm Street series. So very much nostalgia.,

    Awesome series, with so many memories. Please do find the time to actually play through these, as pixelated as they may be. Love you forever, like you always."

    Thank you much for a collection of quests involving kings or folks who will eventually be kings. I spose I'll stop.

    Edit: played the heck out of them, love em! I will have to call back home and have my catacomb map sent to me. 7 was hit and miss though. bleh can't wait to play them all and holy crap we need quest for glory like asap.
