Anyone want to trade for any of the following:

Frozen Synapse

Operation Flashpoint - Dragon Rising

50% off Valve voucher

50% off Lightfish voucher

Coal or games - make me an offer!

How about a piece of coal and a 25% off Valve games and a 25% off Activision games for Operation Flashpoint and the 50% off Valve games voucher? :)

My copy of Portal 2 is still up for trading for any other game.

Here's what I already have :

The Orange Box

CIV4 + ext

Just Cause2

Borderlands

Alpha Protocol

Darksiders

Portal 1+ 2

Hoard

Bioshock 2

SW Empire at war Gold

GTA4 + EFLC

Monkey island 2 special edition

Game Getter's giving away the King Arthur Collection on Steam: *snipped* - I think you've just gotta share the link with friends once you've signed up.

They're also doing a giveaway on Modern Warfare 3: *snipped* - But that one's a competition; it seems only the top 5 sharers get that one.

Nice try, but I don't think referral links are allowed here ;)

*sigh* Sorry, I didn't know. They never used to resort to cheap tactics like that before. Should have guessed it with big games like that; usually the only games on there are small-fry indie titles.

I can get on my brother's account to trade Just Cause 2 for Portal 2 for him.

NOTE: For some reason it's saying he can't actually trade it until January 22, even though he's had his account for years. I'll gift it first, then you gift (or trade, either way) Portal 2 to the account. Only want people who are trustworthy (read: people who are reputable in the Neowin community).

It's sad. I've been looking at the sales every day for the past week, and yet nothing is interesting. None of the games being given discounts (that I do not have already or plan on playing on a console) are either good enough or worth the money (even after the discount).

I was hoping to at least get a few games this during this sale. :/

Not much in today's deals, except for all the Worms games being 75% off. :)

Oh yeah, and Rock of Ages is now ?1.74. Coming from someone who pre-ordered it when it was just over ?6, I cannot recommend this game enough! It's hard to explain it properly, but it's just so fun to play, and it's crammed full of Monty Python-style humour. It's also got online modes too, plus a Skeeball-style game mode. :)

Yup, I'm thinking about getting Worms: Reloaded.

I got that a while ago, thanks to Green Man Gaming, so I'm getting everything but that. :p Totals up to just over a tenner.

Oh, and a little warning for anyone considering Test Drive Unlimited 2, it was cheaper in a previous daily deal (I think it was ?3.74), so I wouldn't recommend getting it now.

I have a coupon for Sol Survivor (full game, not discount) that I'll trade for Freedom Force, if you're interested. Steam name is Zanaffer

If you haven't traded it yet, would you fancy trading Sol Survivor for a piece of coal and a 50% off Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee voucher? :)

    • I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance by Karthik Mudaliar Qualcomm is reportedly in advanced discussions to provide custom chip-design services to Chinese tech giant ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok. According to a report from Reuters, Qualcomm could be involved in designing custom silicon tailored for ByteDance's massive data-center workloads. If it goes through, the deal would make ByteDance one of Qualcomm's early anchor customers for its fastly growing custom chip-design division, For years, Qualcomm was the king of making smartphone processors and modems. The company has also been moving into the PC ecosystem and other formats such as on-device AI for Android XR headsets. However, this particular deal is about Qualcomm's custom Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). For a platform like TikTok, ByteDance needs hardware that can help it ingest, process, and serve billions of short-form videos daily. Generalised hardware is no longer the most cost-effective and efficient route, which is why ByteDance is trying to develop custom Video Processing Units (VPUs). VPUs designed specifically for ByteDance’s algorithmic needs could drastically reduce data-center power consumption and improve encoding speeds at an unprecedented scale. The underlying tech behind these processors is actually from Qualcomm's recent acquisition of AlphaWave Semi, a high-speed connectivity specialist company. By combining AlphaWave’s high-bandwidth IP with Qualcomm’s architectural expertise, the company could begin mass production by the end of 2026, if the talks go through. All this also comes at a time when U.S.-China tech relations have dwindled. Escalating trade frictions between Washington and Beijing have severely impacted the export of high-end AI chips from U.S. firms like Nvidia, AMD, and Lam Research. Yet, the Qualcomm-ByteDance discussions show that U.S. tech companies are still actively seeking growth avenues and are open to doing business with China, where regulators still permit. Reuters notes that the outcome of this deal could be uncertain, and ByteDance might also seek partners other than Qualcomm. via Reuters | Image via DepositPhotos.com
