Alpha Protocol, PC – £2.25
This offer is only officially possible to get in certain parts of Europe, but by using this workaround you can get it anywhere:
1. Go to this proxy. Any proxy for a country that is participating should work, but this is the one I used.
2. Visit “http://www.greenmangaming.com/games/alpha-protocol/” via the proxy
3. Register an account with Green Man Gaming
4. Close the proxy, and go back to the Green Man Gaming homepage. Log in with the account you just registered.
5. Purchase Alpha Protocol for €2.49, paying via PayPal.
6. You’ll be given a serial, which you can activate on Steam.Cheers to Iván for the heads up.
SavyGamer » Alpha Protocol, PC – £2.25
The offer is only valid if you currently live in a country that has the €URO as currency. So ask a friend if you don’t to gift it to you. I don’t advise to use a proxy. I think it’s to dangerous and risk possible a revoked game if GreenManGaming finds out.
APB Steam refund update
25/09/2010 in Digital Distribution, News
If you bought APB from Steam, apparently EA are now offering a free game as a refund. Valve put up a brick wall, but EA are making up for the fact that customer who bought their game ended up with nothing to show for it.
If you contact them through this site, and tell them you’d like another game to replace APB, they will give you any game currently available on the EA Store. I don’t think that they will let you get preorders, but it’s worth a shot.
You can pick from the likes of Mass Effect 2, Dragon Age: Origins, Spore, The Saboteur, Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and all sorts of other stuff.
Thanks to CHooligans for the heads up.
Recently the multiplayer mode of Medal of Honor faced criticism for allowing the player to take the Taliban side, thus killing US soldiers.
I won’t comment the moral ethics to portray an ongoing conflict nor if it wise too, but interesting to read is what real soldiers think that have to face the Taliban everyday.
GamrFeed interviewed 9 fighting soldiers, men and women alike about their opinion and how they feel about it.
They guys at Steam listened to us users and added with today’s Steam Client update friends chat with automatic tabbed chat. While they were at it, they added tabbed browsing to the in-game overlay browser as well! The same hotkeys you use in Firefox/Internet Explorer to navigate tabs works in Steam too.

Enable the latest Steam Beta to access this highly desired feature – tabbed chat! Although it’s lacking few things like automatically open the incoming chat message as new tab or middle clicking to close the chat tab, I’m sure they will work on it asap.
Here’s the changelog:

What’s coming up next on Steam? What are the next big games featuring Steamworks DRM? I’m here to tell you.
(click on the picture to see the deal) Magic: The Gathering – Duels of the Planeswalkers is coming this month to Steam and will include the usual Steamworks features like achievements, leaderboards and matchmaking. The game was previously released on XboX 360 last year. The PC version will include the expansion pack for free.
Some may already heard of Magic: The Gathering, for you who have not: Magic – The Gathering was originally a very popular fantasy trading card game from the nineties. Players bought a starter kit from which they strategically build a deck of cards and then compete against other players deck’s. Players could choose to expand their pool of cards by buying expansion packs for money. This could make it a rather expensive hobby. However it commercial success lead to several computer games over the years.
Later Wizards of the Coast (publisher) released an Internet based version of the game called Magic Online which is a exact digital version of Magic including the pricing.
Magic: The Gathering – Duels of the Planeswalkers focus more on casual players that want experience Magic without the troubles to buy expansions pack for good money and build decks from the scratch. It offers premade decks that can be customize to a limited extent. A Co-Op campaign and ranked/unranked online play.
