1 more coin, and I can buy a pair of games.
Paul, I know you said no phone messages, but South Street's going up in smoke. We'll have to meet at the subway station.

The Eidos Pack is great, but I guess we all own a few of them already.

We could all do with another copy of Deus Ex.

Too bad the epic sale is causing epic server fail... It took me 10 minutes just to get far cry to start downloading.

I would consider the UT pack, but that is out until I know whether or not UT04 will work with Reborn... (I find UT99 just as much if not more fun than UT03)

Incredible. GTA4, packed with DRM and copyprotection, much of which made the PC release a disaster, is a 7.49$ game. In modern culture, works lose nearly all their value after a year.

People should buy Beyond Good and Evil.

After reading this I rushed over to my steam account.... was about to click the purchase for Stalker for $1.99 but then hesitated... What do they mean by subscription when purchasing with credit card? Do I have to pay a $1.99 every month for this game?

I've never purchased from steam before... I'm a bit of a nervous nelly buying from someone new. Anyway it's just a one time purchase right?

I think that is for a month. The reason it's so cheap is that it's part of a pack. If you buy the pack you own it outright. When you buy a game outright there's no "subscription" message attatched usually. That doesn't mean I know for sure and some other Steam users may have different advice.

I did not see anything about it being a subscription when I bought it, also there is no 30 day countdown, so I don't think there is anything to worry about.

I have never seen a game that is a subscription on steam before, so I would highly doubt it.

Tell you what, you pm me your Steam name and I'll gift it to you. I just added it to my cart and didn't get the message. If I'm wrong either way it costs you nothing and me less than a bottle of milk. :P
