yeah, I know. It's a shame they can't synch across multiple platforms. I have it installed on my iPhone, iPad and PC and I dabble on it on all three

Yeah I just got it last night and played the rest of the evening. I'm on PC, but I think it's cross-platform? I saw someone named Rainmaker last night, and that made me think of FOFC.

Currently you can only join a party with people on the same system, though you can get matched against players on either. The devs have said they have plans for cross platform parties in a future update though.

On the opposite side of the 2 hour spectrum, I had the game listed as being played "3 hours" when really I had just stepped away to make dinner with the game on pause. I wasn't even aware of the policy, so whatever, but it left a bad taste in my mouth seeing how easily people were getting refunds. I was simply trying to return a game that had gone on sale 12 hours after I purchased it simply to repurchase it.

All I get are automated responses. I like Steam, but they truly are some of the worst at customer service, especially considering they talk such a big talk about it all now.

It's total game crack. Can't stop watching. It's like sitting at a slot machine in a casino just watching the numbers go by.

Has anyone had someone try to hijack their account? Got an e-mail saying someone was trying to login from the Netherlands. I have the e-mail authentication so I'm guessing they couldn't get in.

I do use that password on a few other sites so I'm wondering if I should change everything online.

Picked up Rocket League with a birthday steam card.

A) I'm as bad as it as I feared.

B ) I love this game.

This is a great little game. As goofy as the graphics are (which I love), the gameplay and physics are actually really good. The only thing that I'm struggling with is finding the right difficulty level. I played my last game on 60, and it felt OK, so I'll try a couple more games there and see how it goes. Wonderful game.

Does super mega baseball have a career mode, or is it just season/exhibition?

Just season, but it has hiring/firing of coaches as a power up of the team

Rocket league is a trip, man. I feel like a kid learning to play a new sport, but I like it. It's definitely got a learning curve, and watching the MLG teams makes it feel like more of a curve than it is, but it should be fun getting around that curve.

So much fun. I've got about 11 hours into it and I'm finally starting to feel like I'm decent at it. I still have a bad game here and there, especially online, but I'm loving everything about it.

Glad I did, it's a immediately fun game, but getting through the leagues it does require different plans the more you get promoted.

It's still early access, but worth it IMO, definitely got that 'one more game' addictive vibe to it.

I've been caught up in a mix of Blood Bowl 2 and X-Com: Long War. That's pretty much it.

Undertale is phenomenal.

A sampling of reviews from the Steam page:

“The puzzles aren't particularly impressive.”
10/10 – Destructoid

“I have a couple of issues with the user interface.”
10/10 – PCInvasion

“If there’s a criticism to be had, it’s that sometimes Toby Fox doesn’t know when to let a joke go.”
10/10 – The Jimquisition

EDIT: It also has item shops.



And dogs.

I'm nuts.. purchased Might and Magic Heroes VII at $50 but it's one heck of a game. I've only dabbled in the series, but I'm hooked so far. I haven't had any issues yet on W10 running at Ultra settings with my GeForce 650 Ti graphics card.

Most should wait until a price drop.. but I'm really happy with the purchase thus far.

Why wait? I've been considering this although most user reviews on steam and metacritic talk about a lot of bugs and such.
