So I was about to send out the second batch there and I discovered someone is apparently DDOSing Valve and the Steam Community is down and I can't access my inventory.
Two of the newly signed up users have gone silent. I'm really hoping they send things in at the last minute but I may just have to sort out the gifts as I can in the circumstances. If I'm lucky the games that the people got for them will match up with stuff that the people they were meant to get...
I've gotten things from more than half of you at this point just to say. No rush for the rest of you: As long as I get them before the end of the Steam sale it's all good. Also a reminder that if you had something on your wishlist and your secret santa got it for you but you had already bought...

The first official third party Steam Machine has been revealed and no it's not the Piston. This box is from iBuyPower and doesn't seem to have an official name yet but there are two different prototypes, one codenamed Gordon and the other Freeman. The specs are vague but the device will have an...
To everyone on my friends list: Sorry for clogging up the activity feed with my reviews. I like talking about games. On the other hand if you'd like to vote them up I'd be delighted.
