    Get the Witcher and Witcher 2 for the love of god.

    Those games are far far too good to be that price.

    Hey guys, need a bit of help. I've been using Skype in my flat on offline mode for the past few days (don't have internet, long story), and when I went into Uni today to use their internet for some other stuff, I loaded up Steam to redownload some games, only to get this:

    Help?

    Goolge the error, something is up, I think you need to switch a setting for offline mode on or off, though it may require you to access the internet in some capacity on that computer.

    The university network is blocking Steam connections. Reboot and try again.

    I've also seen the same message when using a program which controls the servers that Steam is allowed to connect to [eg. if you only want it to use nearby Steam servers, then you'd block foreign ones], and something's gone wrong. If you've never installed a program like SteamManager, then that's not the problem.

    The Witcher's a steal, and great to have on hand for gifts if you've already played it. I'll be picking up Strike Suit Zero - it's one of those games that I wanted to play but couldn't justify dropping twenty bucks on. :D

    Well, yes.

    But for someone who has finally decided to get this game, this sale is rather convenient.

    It's cheaper through trading. CK2 Collection Steam Gift is only around 5 tf2 keys, which is about $10. If you want one, I can grab one for you at that price.

    ---------- Post automerged at 01:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:50 PM ----------

    Also, Dishonored + Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition for $15

    Ok, I didn't realize that nobody had posted this yet, so it's coming a bit late.

    As in there are only 25 minutes left for the sale.

    Steam has the Mount and Blade collection up for $9.

    Mount and Blade
    Mount and Blade: Warband
    Mount and Blade - Napoleonic Wars
    Mount and Blade - Fire & Sword
    Total: $8.74

    And War of the Roses: Kingmaker for $4.99.

    I really suggest picking these up if you don't have them, especially Mount and Blade. The mods available for Warband make the game worth so much more than its list price.

    Time is short, get on that shit.

    Hahaha

    Also: MDK, so fucking good when it came out. Not even going to talk about the obvious ones like Thief, Deus Ex, Fallout, Freespace, Tomb Raider 2, and Legacy of Kain.
