Not so happy about my purchase now...

Got home and got Driver installed. I went to play it, and even with two 560Ti cards through SLi, it wouldn't run on high. It barely ran on low, even the game menu was laggy. So I restarted my PC, tried disabling one of my cards, checked my video drivers. Everything I have tried has not seemed to work. I have no problem running BF3, Guild Wars 2, all on high. Not sure what it is, but I really don't have the patience to mess with it.

Does Steam do refunds? I've never had an issue like this before, but I can't be bothered with this crap, I'd rather just have my money back.

Not sure, I think so. May as well try eh? At least, that's my recommendation.

Not if you're like me and have been waiting for Arma II for the longest time! :p

I'm wondering if they don't do sort of an encore sale tomorrow for those that missed something. Haven't they done that before? :o

Wasn't Arma II free on Greenman Gaming?

Hoping for an Elder Scrolls pack :/

I hope so - today's sales are pretty poor :/

The whole sale has been pretty poor, IMO. I've spent less than ?15 in the sale so far.

Batman, Rayman, and Fable 3 are all on sale. And I want them all. But their all more expensive then I'm wiling to pay. :(

Same here. I was tempted by Arkham City when it was on sale a few days ago, but I read about the GOTY edition coming here in September (it's already out in America, the cheeky gits), and I also read about the issues the PC version has, mainly with DX11.

Indeed it was; I got it myself from there, but I'm assuming he wants ArmA II Combined Operations so that he can play the DayZ mod.

Ah, I've spent ?100-ish, but that's due to my move to PC gaming and not having many games before hand on PC.

you guys are having fun with this! i have to save money so no games buying for me for now...have to pass on this sale sadly. most of the big games i already bought, but still...oh well, between gaming less and having trying to save it's ok, hopefully i'm still around for the holiday sale :rofl:

    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
    • The "Classic" Outlook has done that for a few years as well. The option to even change that is really hidden away too... It really shouldn't be hard to respect user defaults. Sadly we are the product now, not Outlook. To change in the Classic Outlook: File > Options > Advanced > change "Open hyperlinks from Outlook in"
