Iron Brigade doesn't have Steam achievements
My Double Fine collection will never feel complete.
Boo :/
This is why I quit and deleted. As pretty as it was, that's all I was playing for. Didn't like the flow/gameplay at all and finally just said "that's enough".
Ugh. Doh. They still should have let the right-click method work for tards like me.
As is par for the course with Steam sales, after spending a fair amount of money on new stuff and lamenting something else I would have bought if the sale had repeated (Far Cry 3 in this case), I spent my gaming time yesterday ignoring my Steam account and instead played the Saturn game Legend of Oasis.
I think the time of year I spend the least amount of time on Steam is right after I've bought a bunch of stuff.

In a perfect world we would have both Iron Brigade and Brutal Legend with proper achievement sets.
Bring on the dirt cheap Deadlight!
edit-
Now that I have a good gaming PC, seeing Valve being all excited about their console-ish hardware instead of focusing on developing awesome new games is such a bummer.

Nabs told me that Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet is a baller Metroidvania.
I trust him because he holds a PHD in Metroidvania Studies.

So many games, so little time to play them
I've highlighted where you're going wrong.
I found Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet very tedious, personally. I really want to love it but I can't play it for long before I'm falling asleep.
But playing games is fun. I guess owning them is more fun

I wish someone could manage to pry out Microsoft's older catalog of games and get them up on digital distribution. The old Age games, Freelancer, Rise of Nations and so many other classics.
Huh? You sell hardware with software. I suspect Source 2 is going to be pretty killer on that front.
Not that I'm expecting anything exclusive. Cause that would be insane. But I do expect them to use Valve titles that exploit it (controller and content creation abilities).

They're capable of doing more than one thing at a time.
And the thing they're putting a lot of effort behind (hardware and standardization) will make every game better, not just their own.
I'll concede that playing games can have its own merits.
I'd do anything for a Win7-compatible Age of Empires Gold. I developed a sudden urge to play Rise of Rome a month or so ago but was saddened to find out that such a feat is seemingly impossible -- the only thing I haven't tried is running it within a virtualised instance of WinXP.

Valve only work on one thing at a time. This is proven by the fact that they haven't released any games in a while.
Not to mention the company hasn't had an original idea since 1998's Half-Life.
All right, finally might see some good discounts on Microsoft titles.
Only own Mark of the Ninja out of that list, I'm interested in quite a few others, and my girlfriend was wanting Age of Empires III.

Nah. I thought it was they haven't actually developed anything since 1998? Scumbags. Publishing the hard work of others under their own studio name.

I mean what are those people even working on for the last 10 years? They just hire mod teams and students to make all their games!

Valve is just a company that stifles creativeness, so much is rather apparent from Quantum Conundrum which smokes the Portal series in every department. I can't wait for the next game by Kim Swift and Airtight.
Yes.
Use this extremely useful tool. http://www.omiblog.com/downloads/
Unsure if there's a readme where its documented but...
1. Select category from the tabs on the right.
2. Double click the category name at the top of the main window to change.
3. Click File/save category data to Steam.
4. Restart Steam
I played through Narbacular Drop the other day and was not surprised to discover it's exactly the same game as Portal.
On a more serious note, I wonder if Swift will

I really hope they show up on GOG where they belong.
I hope more publishers release old games on GoG as well as Steam, as Squeenix has been doing. If nothing else, I'd love to see Knights & Merchants on Steam despite already owning it on GoG.

I mean, I already know the field goal moving that will take place when I say it, so let me preface this by saying your disinterest in something does not disqualify it from being a game they are working on: Dota 2.

Is Airtight still independent? Maybe they can work on the sequel to Dark Void!
That 2D Dark Void not made by Airtight is actually fun

Would Valve even take Swift back after the Quantum Conundrum atrocity?
Goddamn, though. Talk about throwing a career away.

Maybe they could just finish Dark Void. It seemed like it would've been a good game had they done so.
Yeah, Airtight is still independent. Given its most recent release is a self-published iOS game, I'm assuming Squeenix took the Capcom route.
That Nvidia Shield thing kind of inspired me to try some remote game playing from a tablet, as I don't think I'll be upgrading my GPU until the 7-series gets released and I'm on a GTX570 right now.
Freaking Google...I'm trying to buy your tablet but your store is broken...
Anyways, I suspect that these will be the games that work out the best:
- any point-and-click adventure
- Civ V
- XCOM
- HoMM
(The tablet is also for doing some schoolwork from bed)
EDIT: Lol really? $12 tax? For shipping from Google to Virginia?

Google has a sales office in Virginia.
In a perfect world we would have both NOLFs on Steam.
Last night's posts made me want to replay those games.
Is this a Midtown Madness Steam-begging post? If so, I agree 100%.

Interested on Deadlight, Iron Brigade and Toy Soldiers!
I never asked for that! Just like how I never asked for Amazon to open a distribution center in VA.
Droid Assault has released and is 20% off ($7.99) until the 17th.
In a perfect world, Steam would expand its film selection beyond IGTM and the Dota 2 doco*, and Saoirse Ronan's filmography would be among the first releases.
* NYR.

The internet is changing. My home state of Massachusetts just passed a bill that'll have sales tax charged out on all internet purchases by the end of the year. People are going to look back at this time like how we look back at there being an Iceman and a Milkman - you know, people who specifically delivered Milk and Ice to your home on a schedule.

I feel bad for joking now. They were apparently working on something since at least 2011, I wonder what happened to that. Cancelled? Moved to next-gen? Downsized and DD like I Am Alive? Who knows...
Doesn't Lucasarts, now Disney, have a trademark on the word 'Droid'? Is it time for popcorn?

You're going to have to slow down with this stuff.

I think if properly challenged, the trademark wouldn't hold up. It's just "android" with "an" removed. They describe basically interchangeable creatures.
However, this tiny indie game will not be the company to challenge Disney.
So he should take back what he said? Perhaps revisit his statements with a newly gained perspective or cognitive power-up?
Metroidvania is in your DNA Nabs, damn.
Motorola and HTC then? or does LucasArts only care if it's used in an entertainment context?
