Sometimes Steam is a real piece of horseshit. Like today.
I come home and just want to play some games. It's been 15 minutes and I'm still trying to connect to Steam. I don't know why it takes so long to verify a simple username/password pair. It can't be the network right? I mean, this post I'm making contains more bytes than that. I can only assume their backend is some crappy piece of shitware. |

Today my first time trying to purchase games on Steam. After a few games I start getting this error:
There has been an internal error initializing your transaction. Please contact support for assistance. And cannot purchase anymore games. Sian.  |

QUOTE(talexeh @ Oct 18 2010, 06:20 PM) Have you tried again for the second time? Sometimes Steam goes emo & it's something to be expected once in a while, particularly when there's big sales going on. I've tried several times actually. I've tried at work through the Steam website, and now I'm trying at home using the Steam client's in-game browser. |

QUOTE(ik3da @ Oct 20 2010, 11:56 AM) Anyone gotten the Grotesque Tactics: Evil Heroes so far? It's an indie game and the game-play description sounds like a good game. Metacritics don't have much on it so far. I'm interested in this game too because I loved the Final Fantasy Tactics series. But the only review I've found so far says that it's bad. |
