Navagon: Stormrise was just one big error. Both in technical and in terms of design. If you make a system that makes the game somewhat playable on console, then don't port it over to the PC version. Seriously now. We don't need that shit.

Stormrise isn't even that. It's an absolute train wreck even on consoles. It's just one big frustrating mess of clumsy (frankly unusable) controls, horrid AI and a camera system from hell.

Stormrise has also been $7.50 since day one of the sale. :|

I think it's telling enough that now, halfway through the sale, every other game on today's is within the top 10 current sellers, with Jade Empire being #1. Stormrise isn't even in the top 20.

Bought Braid (crazy cheap), Trine, Wallace and Gromit's Grand Adventures and Machinarium. Add to this 23 games from GOG and i've got a headache deciding what to play first. This isn't healthy.

I didn't buy a thing from them this year.
Heck, it's like last year, save for that I bought HL: Opposing force and Blue Shift for a friend back then.

Well I actually ended up buying a couple of copies of Jade Empire. But on the whole, these 24 hour sales have been utter crap for our region and I'm still waiting for the inevitable day when Valve decide to offer up only games which are regionally restricted here (giving us a grand total of 0 games to select from).
So far the closest they've gotten to that was the first day of sales and yesterday; both with a grand selection of 2 games!

They'll also try to sign you up for a deal. "ACCEPT THREE DEALS TO GET THIS DISCOUNT!"
What's this, now? On the Riddick page, it says that after you activate TAGES for a third time, you get all your activations back in a month. Does that apply to all the other versions, or just Steam?

I think it now applies to all versions as it's handled from Tages' end. It's the same for Avatar too.

Thanks! That's much better than what it used to be, and is good enough that I can now play that game without fear again.

Weclock: seriously, something is wrong with my steam installation and I can't add you as a friend because it can't handle functions like "steam://adduser" or applaunch or anything (which means I can't join games from "you've been invited..") so please add weclock.

Snickersnack: I just clicked the "add to your friends list" button on your steam profile. I think that sends you an invite.
Have you tried doing friend management directly from the steam client (as opposed to say firefox or IE)?
yes, unfortunately steam actually uses i.e.

Oh god, Max Payne 1 & 2 went on sale for $2.50 each. Been wanting to get these for a long time.
