QUOTE(wilsonphua @ May 5 2011, 07:40 PM) Nope, I don't have torrents. I never use torrents (cause the download speed is low). I don't open YouTube. Only me use the internet currently. It says "could not connect to Steam network. This could be due to a problem with your internet connection, or with the steam network." I'm scared if Steam is down like PSN. Nvm..I try again tomorrow morning.. The next thing you can try would be to install Hotspot Shield. It's a free VPN & you only need to run it to get Steam connected. Disconnect from Hotspot Shield once you've logged into Steam. Take a look at this thread's first post, it's been helpful to a number of forum members here.

QUOTE(Eoma @ May 7 2011, 01:11 AM) steam says 75% off crysis, but it's still 29.99 ??? In Steam US, the price has changed for Crysis but weird enough, in our region it's the Dead Space series that is having promotion.

QUOTE(Hornet @ May 7 2011, 01:28 AM) Maybe a temporary glitch... they accidentally release tomorrow's sale in our region Those looking for Dead Space, keep any eye tomorrow  Yeah, it's actually pretty normal for Steam whenever they perform a transition from a promotion to another.  In fact, it's a good time to grab games that have prices listed as way too low than normal.

QUOTE(micbabe @ May 7 2011, 12:38 PM) I wan the augmented edition, but dun wan the Dues Ex:GOTY that come along coz i already have the game (not from steam). So wondering what does this mean? It means that whether you like it or not, you'll get a copy of the GOTY when you purchase the Augmented Edition. However, I'm not sure if there's a requirement for you to have the GOTY in your Steam in order to gift it to someone else.  Checked around too but no answer so far. In most case, if you don't have the GOTY in your Steam, it'll tie it to your account for you. This post has been edited by talexeh: May 7 2011, 12:58 PM

QUOTE(Hornet @ May 8 2011, 06:10 PM) It still feels like we're being stabbed when you look at the price difference between our region and US. I can never bring myself to spend on it knowing we're unnecessarily paying extra. Only certain games suffer from this predicament. Try checking Killing Floor & you'll be glad that our region here is cheaper compared to the US.

QUOTE(busted85 @ May 12 2011, 07:50 PM) From what I can gather, Paypal is fine as long as you don't go and dispute your payment with Steam. Steam doesn't like that and you'll have your entire account locked out until you reverse the dispute. If something goes wrong, you didn't get your game, send a ticket to Steam support. Never ever dispute a payment with Steam. Don't mess with them who can hold our game hostage  Its one of the thing I'm uncomfortable with Steam. They can legally withheld all access to our game which should have been illegal. Not really. In my case, the problem lies with PayPal's practice of randomly picking up transactions for review, which means that they withhold the transferred fund until the recipients acknowledge themselves as legitimate payee. Steam didn't get the money & subsequently locked my account & trust me, it's not easy trying to coordinate communication between these 2 giants; PayPal being adamant that they need the acknowledgment while Steam claimed that it's a problem between me & PayPal.
