Quoting: Pengling
Not surprising anyone, here's how mine looks. :grin:


71% of my playtime was on my Steam Deck this year (the other 29% was on a couple of other Linux boxes) - which is quite impressive because I only got it at the start of September. :tongue:
Bomberman as most played...... Not surprised at all...... Not one bit......

Quoting: Linux_RocksYou need more Shower with your Dad Simulator to go with your (awesome) Placid Plastic Duck Simulator. I mean, just look at the trailer. XD
Oh dear...... That makes it sound like Placid Duck Simulator is a psychiatrist tool to help cope with the other..... Trauma.......

Quoting: ElamanOpiskelijaWell I am just a casual over here, but I am wondering how was Liam's year in review.
He was to busy dealing with complaints about my Dick jokes on the forums to play any games....... :tongue:

For my year in review it was mostly hardcore Dick Trickle action in NASCAR Heat 5, Dakar 18, Race 07 and SRX The Game......

Quoting: chickenb00It's Early Access... Which is a Wait from me, but I'll add it to wishlist as it looks good.
Im in the same boat....... To many people have been taking the piss with Early Access that now I just dont buy them and I wait to see what happens with the game first.....

Quoting: PenglingI don't know about you, but I'm getting so very tired of nonsensical inter-company crossovers that make zero sense. :dizzy: (Just because Batman and Mickey Mouse met Super Mario and the Gremlins in someone's childhood toybox, it doesn't mean that it could or should be made official now, y'know?)
Mario use to visit the Pink Vice and leave coins in Bayonettas g-string everyday in my toybox......

Do we really want the likes of Fortniters in our community???....... I would rather they stayed in their nice cosie walled gardens away from us........ :tongue:

Oooooooo...... Cheers for the heads up...... I will get that for sure and give it a blast....... I really enjoyed the first SIGIL.......

Quoting: PenglingI only got to experience Doom for the first time within the last year
Better late than never........

Quoting: Pengling*I've even ended up with a little collection of Doom stuff, already;

That is a nice looking little collection...... That little DOOM Disk hits the nostalgia buttons.....

Quoting: PenglingHappy 30th Anniversary, Doom! :grin:
Have I been killing Imps for 30 years????....... DAMN!..... [External Link]

Valve announced more Steam sales and events for 2024
11 Dec 2023 at 8:39 pm UTC Likes: 3

Quoting: PenglingSome fun ones lined up here, and I'm really looking forward to the Winter Sale! The winter one a couple of years ago was the first-ever Steam sale I witnessed, so it's starting to become a bit of a nostalgic thing, now - my account's not quite two years old yet.
Sadly with the flash sales gone and the voting for the next flash sale also gone the sales become very dull with no incentive to come back every day except for the cards and dodgy looking stickers........

Quoting: whizse
Quoting: Penglingmy account's not quite two years old yet.
Let us know if you need any help getting the training wheels off! :tongue:
Oh shes had plenty of training from an old Steam Grandmaster......... :tongue:

Quoting: lejimsterI wonder what the hold up is in places like Australia and New Zealand for example? They're in the same region and still nothing, nadda. I don't get it.

I would think Valve would want to be selling in as many places as possible.
Quoting: gradyvuckovicMeanwhile Australians just sitting around waiting for Valve to remember we exist..
Valve probably still pissed at the 3 million dollarydoo fine we gave them a few years ago for not offering refunds and this is our punishment........
