Bionic Command Rearmed
The game that was suppose to come out few months ago on Steam is finally here. I suppose Valve and Capcom don’t have any problems with each other anymore. And by the way the game is at least 27% more expensive in Europe than in USA. UK users can have it for … at least…

Zeno Clash
Here’s another mini-review, this time of Source engine based indie game – Zeno Clash. Since I have Internet access I started to play single-player games less. I mean what’s the point? Fighting against computer bots is just boring in most cases, but this game’s artwork really drew my attention – and not only the visuals…

Left 4 Dead 2 has bulletproof zombies
Most of you probably know that Valve Corporation is currently showing off Left 4 Dead 2 at the Comic-Con in California. One of the most interesting announcements was that the zombies will be bulletproof in the sequel. It seems that the enemies are more varied this time – there are several new types of enemies…

Killing Floor free expansion pack and paid DLC coming!
The creators of zombie-survival game Killing Floor just announced the upcoming free expansion pack. Now what do we have in the pack? Well there’s one new level coming up called Foundry. It’s set in an old iron works scenery so I guess you and your friends will have another reason to kill hundreds of all…

Steam: Bionic Commando rip-off
The first true sequel to the classic 1988 Nintendo Entertainment System original, Bionic Commando sees the return of the bionically-enhanced Nathan “R.A.D.” Spencer. Time has not been kind to Spencer: Five years after his heroic defeat of the Imperials, he has been betrayed by the government he swore to serve, imprisoned for crimes he didn’t…

Steam is now officially on Facebook. Our group should get bigger on there ASAP. By the way we just started a group on MySpace.com, join our group now!

Weekend Deal: GRID – priced fairly!
I can’t believe that this week’s weekend deal (GRID®) is priced fairly (kinda) around the planet. So I guess I can recommend it to everyone in Europe (including UK which has even lower price than the rest of the world, but it’s around 1-2$ difference so…).

The Great Drug Wars Game-Name Switcheroo
Ever heard of Drug Wars? And what about Merchants of Brooklyn? Still nothing? Well, it’s the same game, only with different name. Read the whole story here: Would a game by any other name still get a 35 on Metacritic? Let’s say you’re a game designer, and your latest creation debuts to harsh reviews. You’ve…

Left 4 Dead 2 – preview
…While there are plenty of subtle changes that fans will notice, the meat of the game is exactly the same as before. You play in a team of four through various movie-inspired levels, taking on the zombie horde that stand between you and your extraction. The concept is simple: If you stick together, it’s easier…

Street Fighter IV – game released but encoded
The multi award winning game was just released on Steam today, and right in the moment when the game was released no one could launch it ’cause the files remained encoded after the release for over an hour. Everything seems to be ok now though. Few people contacted me about it so I decided to…

Price comparison script!
One of our users tor have created a great script, I will just copy paste of what he said on the forums: I’ve created a simple Greasemonkey script (aka. user script) that can be installed in Firefox, Google Chrome or Opera. When viewing a game in the Steam store the script will modify the page…

2k Pack different games!
Hi Girls, I am watching this site and group now for a while and even if I think that some insults in the announcements are really childish and nothing into setting up news I have something for you. http://store.steampowered.com/sub/1765/?cc=de http://store.steampowered.com/sub/1764/?cc=us (fixed URL!) On the US you get the Civ3 Complete, which you will not get…

Valve Anti-Cheat system does make mistakes?
Update: It couldn’t be a free weekend account because in that period of time there was no free weekends with VAC enabled games. It might be a guest pass though. So my bad if it is ;P —————————————————— This is a pretty delicate subject. No one really knows how Valve Anti-Cheat system works. Can you…

Some fair pricing, eh?
I think I found the "wtf?" of the day. Countries being in Tier 3, you know, those countries that pay the least when it comes to Valve-games – as it is supposed to be, actually pay more for certain games. Four of these games are published by SEGA and three are developed by The Creative…

Heroes Pack fail
In one of today’s weekend deals we have a pretty nice pack of the Might and Magic titles. But something is really bothering most of us so I decided to post this here. The deal has different content package all over the planet, for example in Slovakia, Poland or Czech Republic the game has 3…

Mouths wide shut
A user called gimpymoo created a thread on Steam Forums called Should Valve open a European Office?. After few hours the thread got shut down…by the Steam Forums Administrator, and apparently for him an office in Australia (that’s where he’s from) is a priority and he decided to close the thread. In case this gets…

Valve divides Europe
If you’ve been reading the Steam forums or our forums lately you probably noticed that right now Valve divided Europe into some crazy 3 different zones. Our friend Rhonin the wizard calls them tiers so lets just keep it that way. So what’s it all about? It’s pretty simple, right now if you live in:…
