    Steam Group Logo

    We've gone without an avatar/logo for the Steam group for too long.

    Here is my half-assed contribution until someone comes up with something better. If anyone wants to suggest a different font, feel free.

    Thanks, Warlocke. That's been bugging me for years.

    You need to get it to one of our group's admins.

    No problem.I've been meaning to do it for a while now, but I am not an artist and the program I use is a bit of a pain because it's not 100% compatible with Win7 (to the tune of resetting the Aero desktop whenever I use it and crashing at the worst times).

    B-But muh laziness... :(

    Okay, I sent it to Middy. :D

    I wonder how many of us are even old enough to have used one of those Atari joysticks...

    I've used an Atari joystick... but my first gaming system was an NES, so I'm just a hair young to have owned one.

    Seriously though, I love that on the book. One possible change up... in the second one I linked, if you wanted to add a touch of green, could make the button green instead of red... but that might lose the obvious Atari reference, which would suck.

    NES was the first console I owned, but I'd played my friend's Atari a few times.

    Thank you. Here are four more variations.

    The green one looks a little weird on the Steam page.

    Kickass! I like both the black and transparent backgrounds with dark green button.

    Still a shitty game though, which is tragic considering all it could have been. Shame too. A slightly tighter story, and a less ridiculously dumb unlock system and it might have been okay.

    Worth it for $10 or less.

    The Just Cause games have a story? Clearly I've been playing JC2 wrong...

    I'm not getting it either way: Graphics card. :|

    The deals are a bit on the shit side this year.

    Also no more daily and flash deals.

    It feels like the last couple sales have been rather lackluster. I miss the flash and daily deals.
