I still have my free gift of HL2:Ep1 to give to someone from the orange box ages ago... all my friends that play games already have it... (dur)
I don't, m'friend :P

Promos on multiple copies of Borderlands and HL2 ? Meh.
Sniper Ghost Warrior at half the price ? That's more like it. :D

On the 'quirks' side of Steam...

Has anyone done the requirement for an achivement when Steam was in Offline mode, logged in a few days later and the Achievements appear?

Because Just Cause 2 just awarded me three achievements, which I did ages ago on my current save, but I haven't played Just Cause 2 online for a while before this...

Yes, it depends on the game though.

Thanks mate, that sets my mind at rest. Don't like it when Steam does stuff I'm not used to!

It's likely because its a Steam Cloud based game.

The only disadvantage for me is 1USD=1EUR and the big differences in prices for a different regions (I mean USA, UK and Europe).

True. The year is 2011 and...
- 1$ is still 1€. When will they finally realize that Europeans would buy even more games if prices in € were lower ??
- you still can't download anything while playing.

Other than that, I've now received and sent so many gift passes and free games that I find it harder and harder not to like Steam a lot...

Alt-Tab is your friend here: Alt-Tab out of the game, resume the download, Alt-Tab back into the game. Works for me...

Hmm, so it's just a matter of application "focus" or sth ? Goody, thanks for the tip :)
