272996, when did this dude get so militant? Posted by southphillyman, Fri Jun-22-12 11:17 PM blackbustercritic i love how he made a spreadsheet of the prices http://youtu.be/Nis3jGQ-dKQ i never even heard of this steam service anyone use it?
272998, Steam been around for a good minute now Posted by Innocent Criminal, Sat Jun-23-12 12:34 AM I think it launched around the time of Half Life 2, I've used it to purchase a couple games here and there and some DLC. They have great sales from time to time.
273006, Yep. It was first a portal for Valve games and custom mods Posted by Whiteout, Sat Jun-23-12 09:46 AM like Counter-strike, but it has since expanded a lot. It's been around for almost a decade now.
273007, How does he play so many damn games? Posted by Whiteout, Sat Jun-23-12 09:56 AM Also, he didn't pay shit for the Humble Bundles ... lol ... yeah, you can definitely save money that way. But then he argues that developers make more money on PC, which may still be true, but haha nonetheless

273048, my favorite thing he ever did was the mass frying of Sonic Stans Posted by Dr Claw, Sun Jun-24-12 09:00 PM I don't even know if you can call them "Stans", these folks probably paint themselves blue and roll around on the ground on the regular and he did talk about Charles Hamilton on the way
273049, Yeah I missed this. People really love Sonic like that? Posted by Orbit_Established, Sun Jun-24-12 09:16 PM >I don't even know if you can call them "Stans", these folks >probably paint themselves blue and roll around on the ground >on the regular > >and he did talk about Charles Hamilton on the way Is there really a huge culture of people who idolize Sonic like that?? ---------------------------- Young Broadway Star Urgently Needs a Bone Marrow Donor.

273108, Speaking of PC games, Dragon Age 1 and 2 for $10 on Amazon Posted by Lach, Tue Jun-26-12 04:42 PM I've never played either but went ahead and started downloading them both on mac right now. Getting part 1 ultimate edition and part 2 together for $10 seems like a pretty good deal to try em out.
273110, i had to check the calendar to see if May 3 was on a Sunday Posted by hardware, Tue Jun-26-12 06:12 PM

273265, why? Posted by RaFromQueens, Fri Jun-29-12 08:10 AM
273269, Consumers like him are why Madden and so many games are shitty. Posted by Orbit_Established, Fri Jun-29-12 10:46 AM Cats have this odd product loyalty and don't demand shit Its comedy I mean, I don't really play games like that so it don't matter I spend my tech money on productivity software...LOL @ consumers being as complacent in the productivity industry...that software has to get BETTER in order to sell, even with product loyalty ---------------------------- Young Broadway Star Urgently Needs a Bone Marrow Donor.
