QUOTE(vh_20 @ Nov 30 2010, 03:08 AM) and thats all from steam, i saw talaxeh posting promotion about gamersgate now. they have started their holiday gift sales week 1 http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=38148762Yup, 4 weeks of holiday sale & for every 4 games you purchased, the cheapest game will come free. However, don't expect GamersGate to come out with a lot of AAA titles like Steam but to each its own since we're pretty much spoiled by Steam by now. Aliens vs. Predator | -66% | $6.80 Aliens vs. Predator 6-Pack | -74% | $29.99 Beat Hazard | -75% | $2.50 Colin McRae DiRT 2 | -75% | $5.00 Altitude + DogFighter + Flotilla + Gratuitous Space Battles + Plain Sight | -92% | $4.99 Lead and Gold: Gangs of the Wild West 10-Pack | -78% | $19.99 Mafia II | -25% | $37.49 Metro 2033 | -75% | $10.00 Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: Le Chuck's Revenge | -75% | $2.50 Peggle Deluxe | -50% | $4.99 Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic | -75% | $2.50 Trine 8-Pack | -87% | $19.99 World of Goo 12-Pack | -79% | $19.99 This post has been edited by talexeh: Nov 30 2010, 06:33 AM

QUOTE(diehard1979 @ Nov 30 2010, 02:27 PM) want to ask you all, when someone send gift to my email address, I click to get the gift (I got steam account but no steam client at here, only home pc got steam client) and it cannot work, so when I go home and click the link again, it is still available? or just now the first click already consider redeem? It will still be available since you have yet to tie it to a Steam account. Just make sure that the Steam client running in the background belongs to your account or else you'll be doing your friend a great favour.

QUOTE(sasaug @ Nov 30 2010, 11:47 PM) by the way, if i bought game from gamersgate, can i activate it on steam or download from steam? Not for all games. The safest way is to play the game from where you purchased it. If you buy it from GG, install it the GG way.

To those who can access the Steam client now, can you check if you can play King's Bounty: The Legend for free? Those guys in Steam forum said that they can just download it for free & it's a few pages long so I don't think it's trolling. http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/show...d.php?t=1623580

QUOTE(CyberSundayz @ Dec 1 2010, 01:25 PM) its say You already own King's Bounty: The Legend lol i never bought it  Hmm... too bad I'm in office at the moment.  But seriously, Steam has been known to be a lil' slow in getting their announcements out. Last Summer Sale, all the games discount for the last day has been shown on their individual game pages even before Steam announced them out. This got me thinking if this free copy of King's Bounty is meant to be some kind of free play until Sunday or free-for-life (like Portal), & it's just that Steam is slowpoke in getting the announcement out again.

QUOTE(tellmewhy @ Dec 6 2010, 04:40 AM) hi guys, i not sure whether this is the place for me to ask the following question  , i been struggling to get original games from steam / continue download torrent, any words, feedback/ reason to push and get original games? D: Imagine yourself as a farmer. Would you prefer people to enter your farm via backdoor / broken fence & steal your vegetables or do you want them to face you upfront to buy those vegetables that you've spent hours toiling under the hot sun?

QUOTE(frags @ Dec 6 2010, 04:19 PM) Gamersgate has less region locks. If i recall they don't have any region lock at all. It isn't exclusive. Impulse has a few games that are for NA region(quite a few EA titles). But most of the indie stuff and their own games are available for everyone. There ARE region-locked games in GamersGate. To be honest, it's pretty much unavoidable since it's the game publishers with their "region-lock my games or don't sell them at all" attitude.

Someone actually saw something that he's not supposed to while browsing through the Steam Treasure Hunt page. It's no longer there so whether you believe him or not is totally up to you: QUOTE Grand Prize Drawing: To enter, a user must complete 10 or more objectives above by the end of December 19, 2010, and then be logged into Steam at some time on December 20, 2010 (12:01am PST – 11:59 PM PST), the first day of the Steam Christmas Sale.

QUOTE(Zephro @ Dec 8 2010, 01:15 AM) Which is ez mode in chime? 9mins? I got 2mil and nothing. I played the 9 minutes mode & managed to get it. A few things you need to check: - Did you play the right song? It's Paul Hartnoll, the second song, which will require you to unlock via the first song. - Check http://store.steampowered.com/treasurehunt. If you don't see the achievement, you might need to add a game into your cart (not buy) & allow the Steam client to prompt you for login credentials again.
