Re: The Lounge
Let me clarify: Steam sales. Also, some games I just can't get anywhere else. And it's not just the prices that matter. Steam is great overall.

Re: The Lounge
Yeah Steam puts even popular games on sale for things like 50% off on a fairly regular basis You'd get Skyrim at a higher price most of the time but the Summer Sales are going to start fairly soon and I'd bet Skyrim will be cheaper than 33.98 then

Also I hate to log in to play a singleplayer game (but you can get around that in some cases).

Re: The Lounge
Yeah uh, you don't really have to log in to do that, if you just keep the login details on the computer and then just start it in offline mode, don't even have to go online.

Re: The Lounge
So Radical Entertainment, the people who made the Prototype games, are shutting down. I'm sad now

Re: The Lounge
So yeah that Steam thing was a scam the whole time, and I knew that. I just wanted to incite a reaction :3 It worked.

Re: The Lounge
Got into the DUST:514 beta today. Dug the PS3 out of the closet to find half the cords missing. I'm sure that they're around here somewhere, I just don't know where.

Re: The Lounge
Nah, it's cool. Use it for yourself. I was just complaining that I hadn't gotten into any of the betas yet.

No, I have about 0 excessive processes running in the background and steam is not getting some special treatment. Done with steam. Harzipan wrote: Got into the DUST:514 beta today.

Re: The Lounge
You should do more research before judging something. It's not a generic grey/brown FPS. It's an MMOFPS where the things you do actually matter to other people, and can have major impacts.
