Be weary of LA Noire, I bought it in the last sale and it flat out does not load, you have to disable your firewall, disable UAC, run steam as Admin, and add Run as Admin to the game exe's in order to play this crappy port. Steer well clear of a shoddy release. Why should you have to disable all that and run in admin to play a friggin game :(

I requested a refund and was told as the game works after doing the options they suggested above it will not be refunded :(

7 pieces of coal gets me... a 2nd 33% of valve trash coupon. **** this ****. seriously. **** this stupid ****ing ****.

This is what I'm afraid of...I have a 33% off Valve coupon, and don't want another coupon!

Anyone want a couple of vouchers? Got a spare 33% off Valve games voucher, and a 50% off L.A. Noire voucher, which is useless now, as I bought it earlier. :p

Oh yeah, still got the two Serious Sam Classic games here too. Anyone wanna trade them for two pieces of coal? :)

Sure would like an LA Noire voucher, but I no longer have anything to give in return.

I'm so ****ed that my power supply decided to fail (again) as I was planning on trading some stuff for more holiday keys. I can log into safe mode and start steam but I can't run any games. Oh well at least once I get my PC back to normal even if the holiday sale and event is over I can buy some regular keys or rare TF2 items. I also have about 23 or 24 coupons I am willing to trade for something halfway decent.

Actually I forgot about trading via Steam outside the game.

Hit me up if you have anything to trade for coupons or TF2 items. Just don't be surprised if in the middle of the trade my PC suddenly reboots.. I'll accept refined metal, normal keys but can't accept holiday crates and/or keys since I can't launch any games and by the time I replace my faulty PSU the event will be over.

So today I have gotten a 25 and 33% off valve games to go with my 50 as well as one coal. Did get a free laugh though as some guy was bitching about a "friends" game as we whooped his team, the one guy on my team who called him out with me(he was calling us ###### because we were playing the game well) left or didn't load in fast enough and I got kicked. Was fine I just didn't want to leave in the middle of a round but I wanted to see what my gift was.

Well, ShopTo's playing a game of 1up with Green Man Gaming. If you didn't get Deus Ex Human Revolution yesterday, well, you can get it even cheaper now. ShopTo's selling the standard game for ?6.85, and the Augmented Edition for ?9.85

(They're both Steam keys too)

Would love to buy this stuff while its on sale but no one wants my CR-48 and I have no money. Why is everything on sale when I have no money! :(

My coupons, anybody is welcome to take them for free :)

I'll gladly take the Valve vouchers off your hands. You never know, they might actually come in handy. :p

Man! That site is awful! Spent the last 15-20 minutes trying to signup so i can buy Deus Ex and it errors. So far i've managed to enter my card details twice (so they currently have ?2 of my money to 'check my card is valid') and then it breaks.

It's a great deal but i'm not giving them any more of my money when they can't even get their <insert rude word here> site to work!

    • Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last week, Rockstar revealed Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will be starting soon, and just a day ahead of that, now the studio has announced the official pricing for the highly anticipated game. This has been a hotly debated topic among fans and industry veterans for a long time, considering the game is expected to be the biggest entertainment product launch ever. The confirmed pricing for the Grand Theft Auto VI standard edition is $79.99, which Rockstar says gives access to the "single-player experience set in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the series yet." This follows what most of our readers thought would happen with the pricing too. At the same time, a $99.99 Grand Theft Auto VI: Ultimate Edition has been confirmed as well, which lands with "an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia’s story." Pre-ordering will also give fans extra bonuses, including a Vintage Vice City Pack of cosmetic items as well as a free month of GTA+. Head to the official website of the game here to check out all the cosmetic rewards the Ultimate Edition and pre-orders bring. Interestingly, the studio does not mention Grand Theft Auto VI multiplayer at all in today's announcement. Perhaps this will arrive later, following the campaign launch, or the studio is keeping that reveal for a later date. Digital pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will begin on June 25, 2026, at midnight local time across regions for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. The title is slated to launch on November 19 on those same platforms. Pre-loading for Grand Theft Auto VI will kick off on November 12, giving players a week to get the game ready on their consoles. As for the physical edition, Take-Two has confirmed that this will be available without a disc, with the box only containing a download code inside. This will be purchasable starting November 12, giving players who take this route time to pre-load the title as well.
    • Turbo Pascal was my first real programming experience more than 30 years ago at university. I mostly taught myself from the included examples and help documentation, because the university only taught the basic syntax and philosophy of Pascal, without going deeply into Turbo Pascal’s advanced features. I still remember when I discovered that I could embed assembly language directly into Pascal code, call BIOS functions, manipulate screen memory, use mouse interrupts, and control peripherals from my programs. That opened huge doors for me. Programming back then felt really fun, direct, and close to the machine. What I loved about Pascal was its readability and the almost instant compile time. Turbo Pascal was an amazing environment, but unfortunately Turbo Pascal for Windows 3 did not feel like it fully carried that legacy forward. Later, Delphi got things back on the right track after the messy transition to TP for Windows. Sadly, Delphi suffered from years of uncertainty as it moved from Borland to CodeGear and then to Embarcadero. That instability made many developers lose confidence in it, even though Delphi itself remained a powerful and productive tool. I still work with Delphi from time to time, but I definitely miss the old days of Turbo Pascal.
    • I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
