The Trial of Steam

[Evo]

<div align="center"></div>[br]Trials 2 has finally arrived onto Steam after I first got the feeling it would after a brief chat with one of the developers a few months ago. It is great to see Trials 2 on Steam as it is able to make great use of all the great features of Steamworks, and it also comes with a reduced price of $9.99 or $8.99 for a limited time only.[br]Trials 2 is a dirt bike game which requires a traversing of a variety of courses ranging from the easy to god-damn ridiculous ones like Inferno. Easy controls, teams, broken bones and much more really make this a great game. A list of new features for the Steam release follows:[br]

- Steam UI integration (open Steam UI popup with shift + tab). Steam automatically handles features such as managing your friends, and displaying a info popup when a friend logs in and out or starts playing Trials 2.[br]- Steam friends list and the Trials 2 profiles of your Steam friends accessible in game (Teams &amp; Friends menu)[br]- Track record list filtering by Stream friend list.[br]- Steam player custom avatar icon is visible on Trials 2 profile screen for Steam players.[br]- All achievements gained in Trials 2 and your Trials 2 playtime and experience show in your own Steam user page, and is visible to all other Steam users.[br]- Our current (licence key based) activation system has been replaced by Steam DRM system. Also on Steam version we release new tracks using the Steam content upgrade feature. Same tracks will be available on both versions.

Get it from Steam or get more details on the game from the website.

Wasn't this really big on Miniclip, like, four years ago?

 

[whoisrich]

Looks like a bit of fun for the price, purchased

This is sequel

RockPaperShotgun recommends it, apparently.

Looks fun, but I don't think my PC can run it.

My laptop can run it :O

It's a brilliant game!

I bought it last month when Eurogamer reviewed it.
Didn't realise it was coming to steam.


Wish companies would let you activate games that you've bought and come onto steam, since the convenience of the service is great, but buying games twice is not

But then when its activated, you have to download it from Valve servers -- which cost money.

Also, the thread title is gay. I thought it was some kind of mega new feature which came to Steam.

More info on this plz. The letters DRM make me very wary these days.

+ The whole first paragraph was awkward.

 

[Evo]

Yes yes yes. I apologies for awkwardness.

 

[whoisrich]

Here is my experience so far, it has an excellent ranking system, you can choose any one on the list, and see a replay of how they completed the level, or use it as a 'ghost' to race against. Also helpful when stuck on a tricky part.

The level difficulty increases rapidly, the later 'easy' levels being tricky, the 'medium' are challenging, and the 'hard' are best described as OMFG.

The good thing is each level has many checkpoints, allowing you to scrape through by doing death moves that get you one step closer each time. However its great when you are able to everything in one go, and then watch the replay.

Haha, I just realised that as well.

Dear me, Evo.

I got the feeling Trials 2 would be coming to Steam soon after a brief chat I had with one of the developers a few months ago, and, lo and behold, Trials 2 has now arrived onto Steam. Trials 2 makes great use of all the features of Steamworks, and it also comes with a reduced price of $9.99 or $8.99 for a limited time only.

Dixfe.

Valve Digital Rights Management just means that only the people who have paid for the game have access to it. Like, on Steam.

Dear me, Evo.

LOL, just re-read... WTF you drinking over the border there Evo?

 

[Vegeta897]

I had to strain hard to not blow 9 bucks on this game.

I have a bad habit of buying cheap things like this on impulse.

Looks like that flash game Dirt Bike 2, but with shiny graphics. And some fire.

 

[Naudian]

I played the demo and it was quite fun

I know what DRM is supposed to do. But how it does it is always a concern for me, because a lot of times it installs bad shit on your computer.
