    Caved and got Euro Trucker. I genuinely don't understand why.

    Out of interest, do all the male trucker avatars look like artist's impressions of meth addicts too?

    Yes, yes they do. :P

    Seriously, the developers are getting so much free publicity it's ridiculous! :D


    I'm currently €5000 in the red at the moment... Speeding fines are killing me...

    Last night, I transported a truck of gravel from Calais to London, and was literally paid... €0... The truck was battered so badly that it kept cutting out and every time it did it took about ten attempts to get it going again. I've the bank emailing constantly saying I need to pay them back, and they're telling me to take out a loan!

    One cool feature is being able to listen to radio stations from the different countries you're in. Must see if I can add some BBC ones.

    I still have NO IDEA why I'm enjoying playing this.


    Back to the sale, what do people want in CC?

    It's actually closer to €135 when you add in Civ's Brave New World that I bought separate from the sale. Play!!? My dear sir/madam it appears you may have missed the point of these sales.

    I'm hopeful that I'm finished now. I still have a few things on my wishlist, but they're still too expensive. So hopefully some mediocre daily deals today and tomorrow. :P

    Fúcking hell. When I see what some of you spend on Steam sales, it makes me glad that Im only into a small few genres, for once!

    Tried out the Euro Truck 2 sim demo. First entry onto a motorway outside Manchester, I forgot that I was driving a fully laden lorry and promptly tipped it over onto some cars doing 50mph around a tight bend! :D

    Think I may need more lessons before I go into this line of work fulltime!


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,366 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Race: The WTCC Game + Caterham Expansion for 99cents, is that a misprice ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,317 ✭✭✭gavmcg92


    Getting a weird issue with ETS 2 demo. Game opens and I can hear it but there is no visuals. I just stay on my desktop. Any ideas?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,710 ✭✭✭Monotype


    Try updating directX and your graphics card drivers.

    No issues with any other games so far though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,710 ✭✭✭Monotype


    Yeah, but sometimes it's just one single game that needs a patch while all the others work fine with old drivers.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    Even though I put about 100 hours into New Vegas and its DLC on the 360, I couldn't resist it at 2.49 - downloading Project Brazil and a few texture mods now, even if I squeeze another 10 hours out of New Vegas at that price on PB alone and never touch it again I'd be totally happy.

    Did you install the demo via Steam? If so verify the files first. Then look into updating any graphics drivers and directX stuff.

    I'd say tomorrow is the last day of the daily deals, there should be flash sales up until 6PM on Monday.

    Tomorrow is the last day of daily deals but it won't be new deals. Today will mostly likely be the last of the new deals. The last set of deals is usually a display of the most popular items during the course of the entire sale. If Infestation makes that list I might just shoot myself.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,467 ✭✭✭McSasquatch


    So anyone going to plum for Prison Architect today? I think I might as I know there's nowt else I want that will be repeated tomorrow. :o
