Really Big Sky and Ion Assault if you like classic shooters. Ion has the twist that you first must gather particles to shoot at enemies. Seriously underrated.

I didn't notice that detail at first. Nice!
Thank you.
Sorry. I don't read previous pages usually, only the current page.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
A new version of Enhanced Steam should be ready in a few hours. With the release of this version, Enhanced Steam will be in "feature freeze" until after the sale is complete.
This means that it'll only be updated to accommodate the sale pages and to fix existing bugs.
Also, my server is having some issues this morning - probably from people checking to see if the big sale is live yet. So expect a few hiccups during the sale, especially at times when deals change.

My current working theory is that they didn't do them because they're doing a sale.
(Of course, last sale, we still had them...)
Yeah, that makes sense.
nice. now to convince more of you people to play this amazing game.
if you people play a typing of the dead multiplayer round let me know how it goes. I heard they were trying this blend of competitive and cooperative things in it.
Well, now they released a shakespeare dlc for 3 dollars

Finished Dear Esther fellow GAFfers.
After a long day I was feeling tired so I decided to go for it. The game felt very relaxing, which was the sole purpose for me to play it. Nice piano tunes and soundtrack overal helped creating the soothing atmosphere I was after. There are areas of the game that are pure eye-candy. After completing the game I now really want to have Skyrim on PC (finished on the 360 when it was released) with the HD Texture Pack installed for the upcoming Winter.
The one thing I really disliked was the narrator, I wish I could not have it and just let me create my own story or use this walking-simulator to reflect on life, relax or make my own thinking. Every time he started talking it felt like a cheap-bland-forgettable-book with a voice. Little things like some candles here and there made me believe there was someone, or something to look for, however, all I could see was a distant silhouette of someone in the top of a Mountain. When I reached said place I only found myself alone, again.
For those that are able to experience Journey (indie, PS3 Exclusive) it's a must. Unique, emotional soundtrack that made me realize that, what matters is not the destiny, but the journey itself.
Have you played Proteus before? If not it may be worth a look. It's a similar sort of game as Dear Esther (or perhaps that should be experience) albeit a little more artsy, and with no narrator.
Personally I couldn't stand Dear Esther. Just couldn't get immersed in it and the actual story was just too boring. =(
Nice, I only took a couple of them.
Indeed. I just feel that games that I haver never finished and the Backlog must have the priority right now.
That's my philosophy with my backlog
If you are curious I took & uploaded a screenshot of it. But to be honest, my mind could be playing tricks on that one fellow GAFfer.
It's on my Backlog, will leave it for a later date since I like to mix different genres when playing more than one game to avoid fatigue. But thanks for the suggestion.
Indeed it is.
Did they ever fix the rendering resolution being fixed at 1280x720? Or are we doomed to it forever?

'bout time.
The best part of this news is that it finally allows people to write negative reviews.
I think the issue was largely ignored since the game has quite the 'cinematic' filter applied to the visuals and there are huge black bars on the top and the bottom.
You are really only stretching a couple hundred vertical pixels.

YES! They listened!
I've been asking for this for a while, most recently on my Evoland "recommendation" at like 2AM today.

Be sure to check your reviews page and edit any reviews you've previously made if you want to change them to negative.
As part of the "conversion", all previously posted reviews are considered positive.
Also if anyone has any ideas for improvements for any of these new pages, let me know.

Does Steam usually do "Black Friday" sales?

I love how the first example picture has a reviewer who can't spell "strangely" in it.

Can I even change my past ones? I only glanced over a bunch of negative thumbs up and went that's not right.
edit: yes you can!

Nope, It's the the "Autumn" sale.
I'd guess it's because Black Friday is an american holiday (funny enough, it's not Autumn where I live, but still...)
Yeeeeeeaaaahhhh!
My dream of becoming a Game Reviewer has come true... I can already feel all that PR money in my pockets...
That's pretty awesome. Reviews are so important. Honestly Amazon wouldn't be half the service it is without the user reviews.

"There are no public reviews yet". That's not true, because I just made my review public. I hope it does appear there, so someone can hopefully be warned about how awful this game is before buying it.
EDIT: It's up! My mission is done.

Is this the last area after you exit the cave? If so I saw that one too when I looked up from below, I thought that was the final area I was suppose to get to at first, got there and no one was there, I didn't take a picture though
