Anyone know if there is a way around the unlimited Steam account issue? Ive never purchased anything on Steam and this sites needs to link to an account that is unlimited. Not seeing the point behind this verification really. Pretty much all other sites just give you a code to activate at steam. This site wants to link before you can actually buy anything.
World of Warships is giving away $5 USD Steam credit if you win 50 random battles if you want to do that.
only valid if your steam account has spent >$5
Bummer. Is this now the defacto standard for linking your Steam account - needing to have spent at least $5 to become unlimited?
If you don't want to spend even $5 on steam you prob don't need garfield go cart
what about physical only collectors who sadly ended up with a heap of games on steam that they got forced to get a steam account to play with because since 2004, 70% of physical pc games are only coasters with a steam code?
@typhoonadventure: Still got a chip on your shoulder about when steam got launched ey. If you've had a steam account since 2004 with games on it, like me, you can probably activate garfield cart. Give it a go
@Budju: No chip on shoulder, just hate what it did to the market. Used to be able to buy a pc game, install it and play it. Sell it, trade it, give it to a mate.
Steam killed that and made physical release once issue coaster sets. Made a ton of promises about where they would take the platform for the benefit of gamers and it hasn't been the promised utopia.
Meanwhile wanting to use full services on the platform despite having a few hundred games on it, and they will still restrict your account because you didn't use it for a few years (despite having gamers on it since Half life 2 launched) because you won't pony up and give them any money to prove you are legit.
Yeah buddy, all the physical boxed games i've bought that even state in the steam key registration that they're from the physical retail box version, but I might be a bot…
It sadly won't let me redeem and contacting valve support, just like when I cracked open my sealed total war rome 2 collectors edition years later and found they had delisted it due to a dispute with the publisher, won't let you redeem the code, their customer support teams response is "we can't help you".
Their customer service is sadly terrible.
@typhoonadventure: Must be a hard life for a boxed version only collector. I guess it works well for me because I only like boxes to look at on the shelf, I don't even have a CD drive. Most of the games I like have a remastered edition which I'd rather play these days anyway.
@Budju: it's honestly pretty good for anything that doesn't touch steam. A lot of kickstarters, dev's, fangamer, limited run etc release some awesome box set games that can also be played drm free.
A lot of the remasters as well have not been great, sadly theres a huge list of remasters that did a complete fail at what they attempted (XIII, mass effect trilogy etc).
Having a family member and many mates that are game dev's, steam sadly is a monopoly cult. I get why its there but I dont get the cult around it where not one negative word or holding them to account for australian consumer law, their own words or promises can be tolerated as they are sacred.
Steam really stuff over a lot of content creators and favor people who learn how to game the system, this is kind of why epic has been landing so many exclusives (not saying they are great either, but you get what I mean).
A lot of the time these days purchasing physical copies of games gets more money to the dev team than a release on psn, xbl or steam, where the argument used to be used that getting rid of the physical versions would do it, where now the platforms and publishers still take the lionshare of the income.
Quite a lot of dev's now prefer their game to be the giveaway because highlighted games not only get great exposure but it normally means a set amount of sure income from them above a certain amount of downloads that they are guaranteed in a window where it can get greater the more times the game is redeemed.
@typhoonadventure: The mass effect trilogy wasn't a fail, that was praised as a really good remaster because they actually put a lot of work into it with new HD textures.
I agree that a lot of remasters are blatant low effort money grabs, but there are some good ones like age of empires 2 definitive edition, which I've been playing a lot lately.
At this point I've got like 750 steam games on my library, so I'm pot committed to the online digital revolution. I always go disc on Xbox and Playstation, but the discs are almost pointless as you download 95% of the game online anyway. At least you can trade or sell the games.
@Budju: there were a lot of modifications made to make the game politically correct as well as removing "objectionable content" as well as cutting a lot of content including dlc claiming that the source code for it was missing (later disproven, they didn't want to allocate the budget) with the ME trilogy.
On the surface it looked great, but it's still a great example of low effort. I guess a better example with be GTA defective collection, but that honestly was a no effort job.
There are some great remasters (c&c's was pretty good).
As for steam… honestly a lot of people think its too big to fail, I lived through Enron, OneTel, DickSmith and the Bethesda store just to name a few, peoples idea that valve and steam are always going to be there and protect your collection, I wouldn't bank on it, and their promise that they would make all their games play offline, honestly with how they've removed a lot of titles, refused support for broken titles, took 15 years to allow refunds, still think they're above australian consumer laws, won't legally define a digital version of a game as a product with legal rights is one thing, but when they openly claim they need $5 USD to prove your account is real, despite the fact you can send them a reciept of your game, a picture of its box and the disc as well as your collection, and they go JUST SPEND MONEH to get your account to have full abilities, it's a bit rich.
Especially when amazon prime throw you games each month and everytime they've had a free game, you've never had the same requirement, so this one is a bit suss on valve, I didn't come here for a hey, here are some issues valve can fix with steam which normally anytime you do the Gabe army comes to smash you in for not praising the saints name, but a company throws out a free game and valve won't let it happen without a purchase from them when its openly been stated that they're not affiliated with the people arent affiliated with valve…… and your account can be proven not to be a bot…..
Yeah bit annoying.
definitely one of the games of all time
This game completely changed my life. I was a dead and emotionless husk before playing this masterpiece - the excitement and thrill I feel when overtaking Jon at the final corner of an exhilirating race is unmatched.
I wondered why there were so many copies of this on SteamGifts this morning.
There's two things I hate Jon: Mondays, and losing.
How does one explain those steam reviews saying that someone has clocked 15,000 hours of garfield racing? Do they seriously just let garfield run on their computer for 3 years? https://steamcommunity.com/app/362930/reviews/?browsefilter=…

How do i link my steam account after subscribing? Seems easier just to create a new account
Can't use as I havn't spent 5USD on steam.
Which I never ever will.
The fact that steam restrict you so hard with games because of this that you've paid for is ridiculous. Whats even worse Is i've had a steam account since before this was a thing, yet their customer support refuses to do anything about it.
So can't collect cards or a freebie games because valve want money…. poor form.
