    Some of the names Nick called you guys should be made illegal. I won't repeat them here. I'm thinking of the children.

    Valve SOB Project Was Called 'Stars of Blood'

    I think you're right, a lot of time will go into the Dota 2 & CSGO pro scene development. While SC2 drops off, a nice void is opening up for Valve. LoL & Dota 2 on the MOBA front and CSGO on the FPS front. I'm skeptical that CSGO is going to make the grade though; it's going to need a lot of help.

    Valve SOB Project Was Called 'Stars of Blood'

    Gabe's birthday has come and gone but you might have heard some fans paid him a visit on his special day. The lengthy Q&A session with Gabe was recorded and uploaded to youtube, in which the fans asked a huge array of questions including what on earth the space game 'SOB' was? Gabe said: "We...

    Was just reading my Steam 'feed' page...

    To be fair, the imagination of game developers with regards to achievements is pretty short. You get achievements for starting a game or creating a short-cut on your desktop.

    Steam's Spooky Spectacular Steam Sale!

    Perhaps a bit of a flowery alliterative way of saying Valve are throwing a Steam Halloween sale! (After all we need another sale event for that increasingly busy looking calendar). A press release from Doug states a huge selection of games are discounted for the Halloween period including Alan...

    New PC Advice

    In the loop at the moment, just finished building my new PC too. Lots of echoing of Vegeta pretty much. Intel, i5 for sure. The mobo you picked is excellent. SSDs are price crashing at the moment - look into the Samsung 830 series for good value 120GB drive for OS. Best value HDD's right now...

    Help! Steam won't work!

    Firewall issue or conflicting program perhaps? I've seen issues in the past where Steam just refused to install properly on some machines. If you have another PC you can install Steam onto, then copy and replace all the /Steam folder on your PC with the problem, you may be able to get around...

    Spilled candle wax on an ultrabook keyboard. Advice?

    Usually laptop keyboards come as one big part with a plastic backing and the keys sprung to that. On the underside is a ribbon cable which goes directly into the laptop mobo. It is probably quite likely the wax hasn't got to anything important. Usually removing a keyboard is quite simple, search...

    German Consumer Agency Warns Valve Over Steam EULA

    I believe, technically, that you don't own your Steam account, that is also Valve's. And as such...it's breaking their terms to attempt to sell it. Valve scour common places where Steam account sales occur (and also probably have other means of checking, like IP traces etc). They disable those...

    pl_thundermountain secret?

    I don't think it was always there Luke but I recall when it was added as part of a major TF2 update. I forget which one, I'm sure someone will correct me. But in terms of going forward, it's not new. I'm thinking it was added when payload race was brought it...maybe?

    German Consumer Agency Warns Valve Over Steam EULA

    From what I've read, the EULA changes have ensured Steam is exempt of the laws which the European Court ruled on, of allowing the resale of software licenses. Unhappy with that, the VZBV have reacted.

    German Consumer Agency Warns Valve Over Steam EULA

    In August Valve updated the Steam EULA which some people objected to. The changes were in response to the European Union Supreme Court which stipulated that software licenses should be available for resale, something Steam does not allow. Additionally, by declining the EULA you are prevented...

    Not sure which method you tried Mad Muffin, but you don't need to use the one in the OP anymore, just do as the post above yours asks.
