Oops. Sorry guys. I just realized 5$ is US/Canada price.

For those interested, The Darkness 2 Demo is out and is only 1.6 GB.
Just a few quick levels, pretty fun so far but its definitely once again another console port. >_>

in my opinion, piracy sometimes promote the game unintentionally. when people get the game unofficially, after a while they surely will bought the original game. true story

Lol, like a playtest or demo? =P
I admit I've done that several times to many games already. Like Painkiller complete, Mirror's Edge, Max Payne complete or Medal of Honor.
Bought em on Steam later on when they go on discount.
Could replay em someday. smile.gif

The problem I have and I bet most other Malaysians can agree on when buying original games, is the price.
Earning $50/60 USD is tough. But not when you're earning money in their currency. (Like here in Canada.)
Some of my local friends all laugh and call me silly when I tell them I bought a game for $10 USD (ESPECIALLY MY DAD. LUL, He'll threaten to kill my allowance!).. That's like worth, what, 4 plates of Wan Tan Mee. But here in Canada, $10 is only a A&W Fries and Burger combo. xD

Not trying to bring it off topic, but even though I get quite an income my freelance job dealing in USD, its just really really sad if I buy a game and end up just not playing it coz I disliked. Example, Battlefield 3, I spent $60 USD (The most I've ever spent on a single game too.) on it, and call me a bigot, but I only put in 2 hours in it, and ditched it. Sad.

Or games like Brink where at least I got it at $30, but look at it now. Devs didn't even bother much about it.

I've just realized this, that Steam won't connect if I have uTorrent running.

I seldom use torrent, most of the time my Steam running fine. Any fix for this?
*
I use to always have this issue. I'm guessing its because Torrent sucks up alot of bandwidth. You get a "Connection error" when logging in.
Unfortunately I couldn't figure out any method other than just shutting down all torrents running around the house. It only seemed fine after I upgraded to 5mbps connection.

I'm using the Steam mobile app, works really cool. You can make purchases on the go, so as to never miss a deal ever again!

Now if only we could trade TF2 items with it hahaha.

People still insist on buying Duke Nukem Forever?
Give it to me for a $1, and I still won't buy it. Horrid disasterpiece.

How bout the very first classic Duke Nukem 3D.. for a $1? or even on my iPhone sure I'll play it and finish it again, but never, never, EVER, Duke Nukem Forever.

I got a question regarding paypal here.

Does papyal charge u a small amount when you sent/received money? My friend sent me $3.03 just now but i only received $3.00. I know 3 cent is not big deal but just wanna know
*
When you send money to another person, there is a small service charge. But sometimes, certain people don't have the charge, I'm not sure if they don't have it or they paid the extra service charges so I get the exact amount I quoted..
