Nah. Can't even go Offline. That's a bummer.
I have used it once or twice, safe to use. You are just tricking Steam that you are playing the game

Don't forget Marvel 1!
It's still may favorite
Japanese publishers in general should pay more attention to PC IMO. Especially going into this next gen where 2/3 consoles are PCs-in-boxes; it shouldn't be tough at all to make PC versions although I suppose that requires effort.
This is all coming out of my butt, which is why I don't really like to armchair analyze this stuff.
That would be the best thing ever.
I wouldn't like that I don't get to choose the games I get, and I only keep them as long as I pay for the service.
Give me $5 a month on Steam, and I could buy plenty of discounted games, plus stop whenever I want, plus play online for free. Seems like a strange deal to be touted so highly.

Used it when trolling for cards. so far so good
It is still displaying as £7.49 on the top seller list, I guess they just haven't updated yet. It didn't display the price on the product page as I bought it already. But upon further inspection on my 2nd choice browser, it is indeed back to full price
But I'm sure it will show up for sale again somewhere soon.Rickenslacker

Assuming you want to spoof playtime to idle for card drops, there's a better trick to use that doesn't require using an external program from a page emblazoned with "This server is not run by faggots".
Details here from warheat1990 and a clarification from our local Romulan fan on it working with any game using CEG, not just Source titles.
I've gotten a couple.

I must have missed all the Arkham games getting cards. Now if only some Fallout ones would release.
Me either. The prospect of Steamworks means I might be able to get some of my Steam friends to pick it up this time.

A miserable pile of DRM.
It's the most used feature by fellow GAFfer Grief.exe regarding PC Gaming!
I'm hoping being able to experience with proper settings and I hope the invasions to be kind on me since I'm terrible at this game but I simple love it.
Hmm... wonder if I should hop back on KoF2013 and see if I can finally get 3-4 bar connections since the beta before the game dies again in a few days.
I'm super salty I didn't wait for the $15 price. I didn't think it'd drop after two months.

I too am terrible, but I love love love the co-op enough to risk invasions.
Nope. But neither is it on PS3.
That's not what you asked at firstyeah it's a subscription, you still can't play metal gear rising on pc though
is this likely to get one banned/market restricted?
Yeah it's a subscription service, I see both platforms as some kind of subscription service though, I pay a certain amount of money to have access to x amount of games, but the thing is ps+ can expire, but for the region I'm in without rental services, it's kind of great.
That's not what you asked at first
My question was kind of a joke :lol
Seriously, at least release 4.
F2P, probably costs money. Check your profile and it should tell you.
Badge doesn't show until I launch the game at least once, I think.
At least it isn't showing right now in the middle of the download, so I wanted to know before keep going, as I'm not planning to play it "for the sake of playing it" anytime soon.

You definitely need to buy something. 43 hours of playtime here and 0 of 13 cards dropped.
A lot of PS3 exclusives that are covered by PS+ though, for $49.99 or even less, it's a pretty good subscription model.
Heck it even has
Sleeping Dogs!

I played the demo and liked it. The mechanic using the goggles to change how she sees the environment and helping to solve the puzzles was interesting. Still about the puzzles, the ones I found in the demo were mostly logical not something you need to click in things that doesn't make any sense to solve.
I know, right? And where are Firestorm (especially since Killer Frost is in, and yes, even the new one, because nobody asked for fucking Scorpion) and Red Tornado? Captain Atom? Blue Beetle (old or new)? Etrigan the Demon? Dr. Fate? Any JSA members? Hell, why is Nightwing in and Azreal not? Bane, for fuck's sake?
A lot of questionable character choices in that game, but it all turned out for the best. Oh well, there's always Injustice 2: The Super World Warrior.
Why isn't that availiable retroactively for new members, I'll never know.
Fuck, I'll even pay them one year of PSN+ ON TOP of a new PSN+ year plus, as long as I could get all the games.
Let me exemplify: If I buy a PS3 and sign up for PSN+ NOW (12 months, 50 bucks), I'll only be eligible for the "free" games going forward. I would pay an extra 50 bucks (or whatever ratio based on the amount of months the "free games" program has been going on) to get access to everything released so far, on top of the regular 50 bucks yearly subscription.
As a new user to the platform, I'd be screwed out of every game released so far.

I either have those games already or I don't want them.
I'm not arguing that it isn't a good value, just I personally don't need it.
Because it keeps costs down for Sony. They pay a smaller fee for one month, where licencing indefinitely would be much more expensive.
I don't see Steam as a subscription service. It's a digital store, and the games you buy there are yours forever (supposedly, of course, but even if your access gets revoked you could always download a crack and keep playing them).
I don't have a PS3, but from what I've heard I believe PS+ to be a great and worthwhile service, and I'd subscribe to it if I owned the console. But those games aren't free, not at all.
This is something I thought about too. Your solution seems like a good idea, and Sony would get even more money.
Whoa, I won. Thanks for Defender's Quest, Lain! Was not expecting to win at all.
Thanks to you too, Modbot. :3

So, there is a conference in Paris these days, and I have learnt there will be a puzzle-arcade game by Pastagames (Rayman Jungle Run for iOS) which will be released during the first quarter of 2014: Pix the Cat.
The game will be released on Steam.
Here are some pictures found on Twitter:

Yeah it's pretty much a kind of rental service but you can go back to replay them as long as you are a "member", I was just making a joke he doesn't get to play mg rising on pc
(which I've been waiting for on steam )woo and indeed hoo

Understood. I will only get the PS360 when they are uber cheap though so I can play the exclusives that I wish to play that I can't get anywhere else. The only one I can think of off the top of my head is Journey but there are probably a few more. I don't think I would get enough usage out of P+ to justify the expense frankly but I might think differently when I get a PS3, we'll see.
Well any vague thoughts of using S.A.M at any point just got eradicated, smh :/.
Once the growth of PS+ slows down (meaning they have more or less everyone they can get), what's to stop them from slowing down the quality and/or frequency of the games provided for "free". So many people will be locked in with so many games they would lose that it would make sense from a business perspective to just milk those subscribers. They can't get any more than the subscription cost, so there's no reason for them to make it any better.
Not something I would want to sign up for.
Especially now its required for multiplayer. Will be interesting to see how it pans out now.
It's pretty much similar to a mmo subscription, you lose the content as soon as you unsubscribe, so you pretty much should expect one day you're going to ditch the service and lose whatever you paid for.
