So Saints Row: Gat out of hell. It just popped up for me, and I hadn't heard a thing about this. Is this some sort of stand-alone game, or a really big DLC for saints row 4?

Which Killing Floor DLCs have content that's actually useful in game? Mainly new guns.

CharlieFoxtrot posted:So for XCOM is any of the other DLC worth getting, or just Enemy Within? I heard that Slingshot just gives you a "hip" "badass" character, which is what I really want in my squad-based tactics game Dunno where you heard that, there's nothing "hip" about Zhang. I suppose he is meant to be badass, but he only has one brief cinematic and about 10 lines of dialogue. The new missions are ok and passing them gets you an early battleship to loot. If that doesn't strike your fancy, there's also a bunch of new hats to dress up your mans in - The other DLC, Elite soldier pack, also has a bunch of hats and armour customisation options.

Payday 2 had an update earlier this year to reduce the download size to 10GB or so. Also it's one of the few games that was worth the 30GB download.

All the other weapon packs (golden, camo, and neon) are reskins. The Community Content Bundle is $4.99 and has all three community weapon packs, plus neon weapon reskins and neon character (Skully and Foster) reskins.

Morter posted:There are weapon packs, just so you know... Huh, well I guess I shouldn't be overly surprised at Tripwire reneging on things. In either case, it looks like the Community Weapon Pack(s) are the only ones that actually add weapons, the Neon, Gold and Camo packs are reskins of guns you get for free. My bad.

The creators of the Community Pack guns get a cut of the sales so that's cool, at least.

I cleared out a full TB of space on my Steam drive out of video games I haven't played in months. It was somehow liberating.

Even though I could use SAM, I keep games installed that might show up on Playfire just cause I actually do like to do achievements if there's a reward, like the summer camp gimmick from the old Steam summer sale a few years ago. So that's why my drive is that large. I also have games set aside that I plan to go back to, to do some of the sidequests and DLC content (Cold Cold Heart in Arkham Origins for example). Luckily I do buy some games on Origin and uPlay so when those are done they can just be ripped off like a bandaid.

Mokinokaro posted:The controls are definitely a lot tighter than Valdis Story but there's still a little bit of jank to get used to (mostly that characters by design turn a bit slow.) It's still excellent and really fun in that you can unlock the ability to play as almost every enemy in the game. Okay thanks. So speaking of which, does anyone want to split a 2-pack of Abyss Oddessy? Comes out to $6.25 and I have 7 of you on my friends list that want this so  on this

Question. Since Don't Starve has a temporary free listing, Steam won't let you buy it. Even though the sale ends before the free trial does. Am I missing something really obvious?
