Steam/PC Mega Thread

Does anyone know of any good music games on Steam that I can use my music collection with, that aren't named Audiosurf (which I already have)?

I downloaded the Polynomial demo a while back on my old PC but it could barely run and I didn't get it, and I have the Beat Hazard demo on the PS3 which I wouldn't mind trying but would prefer to play with my PS3 controller but am sure if the PC version supports it.

(FYI, I have tried and am able to play both Audiosurf and Hotline Miami (along with Nitronic Rush) with the PS3 controller plugged in to the PC so I know it's not a problem with the controller)

Itbdoes work with PS3 controller through the typical ways you get it to detect for them as a friend ive played with uses one of em. Beat hazard is so fun with multiplayer now.

Retro City Rampage is $3.74 on Steam today

If you buy it directly from the developer you get a DRM free download AND Steam code, all for a slightly reduced price. Like, I think $3 or £2.50.

Though, I am tempted to buy on Steam since I have £3 I made from selling cards on the marketplace.

Speaking of which, I think that rolls out fully on Wednesday and everyone is saying that's when the Summer sale will start. I'd say get your wallets ready but I think everyone has been slightly subdued on buying stuff for the past few sales.

Noticed Europa Universalis IV is up for pre-sale now. Not sure if I should get it.

I love the idea of the game in concept, as I feel the Civ series is too over-simplified, but I felt EUIII went too far the other way.

[TEOL]

EUIII was the best, shut up CWB.

EUIII was the best, shut up CWB.

Eh, I couldn't get into it. Too slow compared to Civ's too fast.

Rogue Legacy y'all. 2D side-scrolling roguelike in the Ghosts & Goblins vein all about genealogy and occasional irritable bowel syndrome. Fifteen bucks, website has a demo, bam.

[KiddKorupt]

I suggest everyone pick up Rogue Legacy. Great, great game. Tons of replay value. Also, I have a 50% off coupon for Europa Universalis III I'm not gonna use. If anyone wants it, I'm willing to trade it for a copy of Hotline Miami.

I am in such a Civ mood right now. I think i´ll have to buy Brave new world right away and hold my urge to play till next week.

Does anyone play Guild Wars 2? I just got done installing.

So companies have been adding a lot of bundles to the steam catalogue apparently. And with the Steam Summer Sale usually happening early on a Thursday in July....

Free copy of Stellar Impact from GMG, if you can manage to get the site to load. Some sort of space sim, shoot em up type thing. Think you get a Steam key for it. http://www.greenmangaming.com/s/gb/en/pc/games/strategy/stellar-impact/

Speaking of server meltdowns, apparently the alpha for Cube World launched and promptly closed shortly after because of the massive rush to buy it. Saw it for the first time on the Yogscast the other day, looks really cool.

[Chris the Human]

That looks pretty rad.

[Ruki]

That looks pretty rad.

And with my new laptop, I'll actually be able to run it when it comes out on the 25th!

[Sousa]

HEY RUKI I HEARD YOU HAD A NEW LAPTOP.

[ADG]

Anyone else bought Cube World? It's in public release alpha. I like it although everything seems to want to kill me and somehow squirrels and raccoons are nigh on invincible.

The webcomic Looking For Group is trying to get funding for a video game.

It's a top-down action RPG. I'm hoping the title is a WIP because you know people are going to see "Fork of Truth" and go "They're ripping off South Park!" Even though I haven't read LFG in a few years now, I always liked it and wanted to see it succeed. The art style for the game is pretty cute, and if you donate at certain tiers you get exclusive content - at $65 you can choose two companions, from webcomics like Dark Legacy and Dinosaur Comics.

[apsham]

Going to give Cube World a shot here in a bit.

[King Ellis]

I want to but don't see the point without a group of people to play with.
