I just noticed that you can expand the view on the steam cards into a hi-rez picture. The picture shown on the thumb view of the cards is only a small part of the whole picture. It is really noticeable on the Psychonauts cards which expand into some concept art. I wish I would have noticed that sooner before I sold most of my cards. I would have at least taken a few seconds to look at each card before putting them on the marketplace.
They're supposed to be adding a binder so you can look at all the cards you've collected.

Noooo jshackles I was just about to post up the high res! SEE

Holy crap... never noticed she had her thumbs up.

 
You guys should get your kids T-shirts with these colorful nicknames emblazoned upon them in a bold script.


On an unrelated-to-much-of-anything note, a kid in Texas got tossed in the hoosegow for playing League of Legends and being a dumbass. Whatever the political implications of this story are, my main reaction is a further reduction in my already-minimal desire to play League of Legends.

Where the hell is my card ? :(

I'll just stick with my Xbox version. Thanks for the replies. Keep chasing the shiny objects Gabe "When's lunch? I haven't eaten in minutes!" Newell tosses your way.
so you don't like free money, send me all yours then. thanks. :)

 
If I uninstall a game, do I still have a chance of getting a booster pack for that game? I still haven't received any of those. I wanna uninstall the games I don't play that are constantly downloading updates, TF2 and Left4Dead 2.

 
Btw, for those interested. Cards for Gun Monkeys are going for $2 to $10 dollars and it comes with three cards. Two pack breaks down to $6.75 each. As long as I can sell my second copy its profit. It seems the cards in that game are scarce. If you are into a gamble, this is your chance.

They aren't actually going for anywhere near $10, some are just priced at that because the market is so scarce. They're selling for $1.50-$2 each, with a couple of sales closer to $2.50. Only three drops, though.

Those charts aren't accurate. I sold 3 in the $3 range and one for $5. I picked up the extra when someone sold one for $2 and I sold it higher.
 
There's currently a pricing error on Endless Space and the new DLC bringing both down to 70% off, if you're interested on playing the game right now might be a nice moment to get it.
Yeah you're right. There's no discount shown, but the price reflects one. It's currently $11.54 for Emperor Edition+DLC.

A quick check over at D4DL shows the Emperor Edition lowest price as $17.49 (though Amazon shows history on an Emperor Special Edition for $8.74 in 2012). Disharmony just came out and has been $9.99 for that alone.

I grabbed it.

You lucked out then, because louiedog sold his cards way earlier today and only made about $4.50 total. The charts are accurate enough, but they're averages separated into different time chunks.
 
Ask and ye shall receive.
Since you are making them, I'll take one kindly....

Wish just the dlc had an error. I'd grab it right away.

I think it's pretty safe to get $2.00 to $2.50 a card right now and a lot of potential for more. You will at least break close to even.
 
If I uninstall a game, do I still have a chance of getting a booster pack for that game? I still haven't received any of those. I wanna uninstall the games I don't play that are constantly downloading updates, TF2 and Left4Dead 2.
I got a booster pack for Portal 2 and it wasn't installed, so you should still have a chance.

 
Is the game even good/decent? Seems like a decent risk if you get in on a 2-pack, but if the game is crap I wouldnt risk it.
It's by the guys who did Ben There Dan That an Time Gentlemen, Please, so I'd imagine it's solid... but yeah, their popular games are adventure games, while Gun Monkeys looks like more of a MOBA/platformer type thing.

Perhaps Provis and Louie could shed some light on things.
 
One could argue Alan Wake is basically an e-book. Between the manuscript pages in game and the 73 page PDF book it's probably the closest Steam has right now
I'd say that Analogue is closer.

Altogether in one package for $9.99 MSRP. I'll pick it up for 75% off.
I'd be willing to stretch to 75% off a base price of $19.99 so long as it doesn't have any non-Steam DRM.and doesn't cost less in Russia, etc..

 
holy shit, awesome, how the hell do you make these so quick if you don't mind me asking?

thanks!!!!!!!!!! + (∞*∞)∞ rep really wish that was possible :)
I just made a template in photoshop, mimicked the gradients, added the drop shadows, copied the CAG logo, copied the trading cards font... Basically I just copy+paste whatever picture and type in the name and I'm done. They take longer to upload to imgur than it takes to make.

 
No one knows, but the description saying you should "hold onto it" makes it sound like it will serve some purpose in the Summer Sale, possibly.

If it just changes into another card... might as well sell now. Very few cards are worth over the $1.30ish they're going for (after fees).
If I collect a few and keep them, they'll most likely turn out to be worthless. If I collect a few and sell them (or don't collect any), they'll probably turn into something that'd make them worth having. Decisions, decisions. :whistle2:k

I could see them turning into additional discounts, the only decent discounts ( :twoguns: ), special sale cards (for a badge), or some coal (perhaps even literally.)

Collect a few, then sell half and keep the other half. Either way, you made a half good decision and half bad decision

 
CAG trading card please jshackles, you're doing awesome. :D

Heh thanks, yeah I bit on provis' 2nd copy, I'm getting lucky with cards today so why not.

(ps. your image is disturbing, lol)

 
In Mind Link's words: THIS is THE fucking blood-shedding, brood-bestowing blunderbuss blast to the balls of coprophilic corporate America that Frank Zappa sang in reverse in Zoot Allures, that oral ambrosia he made addesso when he wasn't molesting Cambodian cock in a conversion van on a burn cruise. This is the literal shit, and I mean that in a good way, like if Brad Pitt and David Beckham had a baby and it took a Cleveland Steamer straight on my bountiful man-tits. I can't thank you in enough ways concerning my mouth for it to be too inappropriate.

(I apologize if that wasn't crazy enough ;) )

Can't do that, it'll throw off my spreadsheet. I keep track of how many game play hours I get out of each purchase. I'm weird like that. Besides, I realized there are two special episodes in the list, so I'm trying those now.
Ya, if you've not played the DLC yet, get to it! They are kinda a mess imo, add to the story in a way that just makes it a bit nutzer

:cry: Series 2 and looking like a Series 3 is in progress and no card for me...guess thats what I get for being less active unless a "debate" breaks out over pop; in which case I set the record straight

I don't mean E-Game-Guides, I mean E-Books...

...you know, books w/ mostly tons and tons and tons of text - like something by Stephen King; F. Scott Fitzgerald; etc etc.
or Dr Seuss!

Back in my college days we got into a heated debate in a creative writing class where the line was drawn flash fiction -> short story -> novella -> novel, never did reach a solid conclusion.
Ok, when I read this, I had a pretty different interpretation of "flash fiction", reminded me of this, lmfao

http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash02/misc/mockingbird(www.albinoblacksheep.com).swf

Anyone else have massive updates for HL:E1 and E2? When I click play it gives me "we need to update the format of this game" message.
It's to prepare for HL:EP3, duh :rofl:

damn it only took me 15 minutes to find the stupid change button to change my avatar. lol woohoo

we actually have badges now :)

 
So it might have been mentioned but our fellow CAGer MHC ran into a little hurdle when listing more cards on the marketplace: apparently if you list more than 155 things in a year you need to provide Valve with your name, address, and... SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER?  Uh... I don't think so.  I checked and I'm already at like 115 items sold.  Guess I'll have to be selective now 'cuz I'm damn sure not giving them my SSN.
