wow, just like that, by a .ini file? I thought they haven't included the proper content on disc/download. Well, thanks for the quick answer, although I'm already dreaming of Fahrenheit drm-free sitting next to my Psychonauts and BG&E here on gog. ;)
Agreed, it's really tiresome to have to check from 24h to 24h, BUT, it is where the giant discounts are, like stalker for $1.99.
Maybe I won't touch a computer for some of the next days, then I might loose some of the 24h specials. :/

This thread is getting popular on Steam.

as my work blocks steam sites, what does that thread talk about?

Just impulse purchased Fallout3 GOTY for $17.49!
I then came here to post about it and it seems to have returned to $37.49?!
Very odd. I wonder if I got one of their 24 hour sales early.

I hope you're right that it will be on 24h. I'm on the line for it being $15-20.

That, sir, is why I'm putting off buying the Eidos pack. I mean, I'll probably get it, but I'm stalling like mad. It's such an incidental, worthless bit of nonsense to whine about, but still, I once before bought the Meridian 4 pack for cheap and got 4 good games (Chains, Obulis, and both Shadowgrounds games--all worth getting for dirt cheap right nao go go go!!) and 20 terrible games I'll never play. It's scarred me.
I'm lovin' the deals so far. I really wish I held off on getting the Witcher when it was a midweek deal, since I haven't played it more than 30 minutes. :(((( The daily deals are going to drive me nuts. I mean, do we really have TEN days of daily deals? Jesus. Valve is brilliant with those. I assume that's their reaction to the growing number of competitors, a way to keep all fools like us looking at their page day after day and browsing constantly.

it's like I have commander keen. for my ... girlfriend ... . yeah. Girlfriend. *cough*
**edit** also, can you see the download size in steam? I have a bandwith cap ffs :-/

If anyone here doesn't own stalker and fails to buy it at $2 i'm going to strangle them and write "i hate good games" on their body.

Kinky. Well, my pc can't handle it (and I'm a poor bachelor) so there.
please be gentle.

Commander Keen is AWESOME. No shame required

I already own Mirror's Edge, STALKER, and Defense Grid so not much for me today. I picked up Call of Cthulhu though, as well as another 10 assorted games that were all 3 euros or less.
Will buy The Witcher EE too, most probably.

Yes. Click "install game" and the size is shown in the window that pops up.

Modern Warfare 2 is currently selling more copies than STALKER.
x_x

Makes sense. MW2 is MUCH more polished, is the latest game in its series, was advertised (period), and has multiplayer.

I went and bought about $60.00 worth of games for $30.00. I love this time of year...
As a sidenote, I find it funny that Steam's discount on Valve products is only 25%. So much for getting Portal on the cheap...

it's still depressing.
what do you people think of stalker clear sky? i love SOC, and CS says it has 'faction warfare' gameplay, which is everything i dreamed of while playing SOC. but i've also heard bad things mumbled about it...
