Is there any chance of MW3 being discounted? Or is the game simply too hot to be included in the sale?

It's not a case of the game being "too hot" (Batman Arkham City got discounted yesterday), it's a sad case of Activision's greediness. They will keep their games as expensive as they can until the bitter end. You usually have to wait at least six months to see a noticeable discount, but more than likely a year.

Yeah. I just read the explanation you gave yesterday. Edited my post, but was too slow to it. :p

Also, another year has gone by. What ever the **** happened to HL2: E3/HL3! Man, I hope we get some conclusion next year.

Can you nuke yourself in decfon to get santa?

you can't nuke your cities no, you might be able to get him in transit though you can launch nukes into your own area just not in a city but you will have to be quick about it.

I'm still looking for portal 2, have DotA 2 and 2 coal.

You want Portal 2 for DOTA2? If so I'd like to trade providing it's the full game. I also have a buttload of coupons if your interested in case you want something more than Portal 2 for DOTA2.

It says "Hardware Survey", but it's the full game. All the game drops are full games, unless it's specifically stated as just being a weekend pass.

The only things I am really hoping to get is either Fallout 3 (GOTY), Fallout NV, TES: IV Oblivion (GOTY - Missed the daily deal for it) or TES: V Skyrim :(

Steam has only given me a lump of coal and a -33% and -50% Valve Coupon.

If you get both oblivion and skyrim, make sure to not play Skyrim before Oblivion, as you will never be able to return to Oblivion after playing the magic that is Skyrim.

It was not even ten or fifteen minutes since you posted when I offered. Did the person PM you? I don't see any post where anyone stated they would trade with you.

I always seem to miss out. Even on that Steam gifts website I never seem to win anything no matter how many entries. In fact nothing ever turns in my favor, guess that it's just my family is endowed with ****ty luck. :(

Anyone else have a DOTA2 Hardware Survey (Full game) they are willing to trade for Portal 2, Left4Dead 2, coupons?

Ok, just worked out a trade for my copy of DotA 2. Now I get to play another DotA clone I've never played before to get another achievement lol.

Good luck with that. I had been trying all day to play it, but the game is badly hosted and when I finally got it updated I can't even register. I gave up and deleted it... screw it.

Isn't DoTA just in beta at the moment?

Sorry man, I may not be checking forum post but I see every new e-mail on my phone which is how I saw the PM. And I did post in this thread yesterday about offering DotA 2.

    • Amazon Prime Day slashes Samsung's newest Galaxy Watch Ultra by 45 percent by Karthik Mudaliar Samsung’s flagship Android smartwatch has received one of its steepest Prime Day cuts. Amazon has dropped the 2025 Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra in Titanium Blue to $357.24, saving buyers around $292 from its $649.99 list price. That's a 45 percent discount (purchase link below). The 47mm Galaxy Watch Ultra uses a titanium casing and a 1.5-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 480 x 480 and peak brightness of 3,000 nits. It includes LTE connectivity, Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi, NFC, and dual-frequency L1+L5 GPS for more accurate outdoor route tracking. The 2025 model has 64GB of storage, a 590mAh battery, sapphire crystal glass, 10ATM water resistance, IP68 protection, and MIL-STD-810H durability testing. Its health and fitness tools include heart rate monitoring, sleep coaching, Energy Score, Running Coach, body composition analysis, temperature sensing, and ECG support, where available. This model is best suited to Android users who regularly run, hike, cycle, or train outdoors and want cellular access without carrying a phone. The larger battery, rugged construction, bright display, and dedicated Quick Button also make it a stronger option than Samsung’s regular Galaxy Watch models for extended workouts and demanding environments.

    • Google begins rolling out its post-Epic Play Store billing model next week by Karthik Mudaliar Google has confirmed that its redesigned Play Store billing and fee structure will take effect on June 30, 2026, in the United States, the United Kingdom, and the European Economic Area. The changes will let eligible developers offer their own payment systems or send users to an external website for purchases, while separating Google’s platform service fee from the cost of using Google Play Billing. The rollout puts concrete dates and detailed rate cards behind the broader Android policy overhaul Google announced in March. That announcement followed a proposed settlement with Epic Games intended to resolve their long-running disputes over app distribution and payments, although the U.S. portion of the agreement still requires court approval. Under the new billing choice program, developers selling digital content or services can display an alternative payment option alongside Google Play Billing. They may also direct users to their own websites to complete a purchase. Developers can use Google’s standard payment-choice screen or design one that complies with the company’s user-interface rules. Choosing another payment processor does not eliminate Google’s cut altogether. The company will continue charging a service fee for transactions associated with apps distributed through Google Play, regardless of whether payment is handled by Google, an alternative provider, or a developer’s website. Google argues that this fee covers the value and infrastructure provided by Android and the Play Store. For developers earning up to $1 million annually, the service fee will generally be 10 percent. That rate also applies to auto-renewing subscriptions. When Google Play Billing is used in the U.S., U.K., or EEA, Google will add a separate 5 percent billing fee, and developers processing payments elsewhere will not pay that additional charge. This means Google’s familiar flat 30 percent commission is disappearing, but developers will not necessarily see a dramatic reduction on every transaction. An in-app purchase from an existing user processed through Google Play Billing can still reach a combined 30 percent. The biggest savings are likely to come from subscriptions, smaller developers covered by the $1 million tier, and companies able to move customers to their own payment infrastructure. Google is also offering lower rates through its Apps Experience and revamped Games Level Up programs. Apps and games that satisfy the company’s requirements can qualify for 15 percent service fees on new-install transactions and 20 percent on existing-install transactions. The criteria include performance and reliability standards, support for additional Android device categories, and selected platform features. Those program rates are scheduled to become available in the initial markets and Australia on September 30. For consumers, the immediate effect will depend on whether developers adopt alternative payments and pass any savings on through lower prices. For developers, however, June 30 begins a more flexible but considerably more complicated Play Store economy in which distribution, billing, install dates, revenue thresholds, and program participation can each affect Google’s final cut. Google is also separately developing a Registered App Stores program designed to simplify the installation of qualifying third-party stores. That initiative is expected to arrive with a major Android release later in 2026 and will launch outside the U.S. first. Google says the rest of the world will receive the changes by September 30, 2027, although billing rates for markets outside the US, UK, and EEA have not yet been announced.
