Portal 2 Fans Send Valve Real Potatoes

[Slothy]

Just wondering Yearg since I believe you got all of the potatoes (correct me if I'm wrong), but I've been hearing that people who got all of them were given the Valve complete pack on Steam and was wondering if you could confirm that if you did get them all.

That's a hell of a reward if it's true. I don't think Valve will rest until every single person using Steam has every game they ever made, even if they have to give them away to do it.

CORRECTION BELOW!!!

I did indeed get the complete pack. Of course, in my case that was only a few things like CS: Condition Zero. What I'm frustrated about is that they apparently aren't giftable which makes it mostly worthless for me. I guess it's nice to have the Steam version of the whole Half-Life 1 series, but I can't pretend to be interested in most of them.

But, I can't complain. I had a lot of fun with some of The Potato Sack games anyway and I enjoyed the thrill of the hunt. The idea that Valve would do this at all is awesome, and from what I hear, there are a lot of people who got a lot of good games out of the deal so good on them.

Oh man. Did anyone else get nauseous playing this game?

So apparently there was a change. I don't know when it was issued, but it's awesome.

Now, not only are all of the extras from my free copy of the "Valve Complete Pack" giftable... but I have an extra copy of Portal 2 giftable. Kinda almost sad now that I already purchased two copies (one for my wife). So even though I have most of the Valve games, now I have lots of extra copies of various games. I also have a few extras from the Potato Sack that I'd already bought.

Wow xD

Just saw that on another forum actually. Everyone start sucking up to Yearg.

So I just finished Portal 2 twice (once with directors comentary)

(SPOILER)Amazing game, was not disapointed.

Does anyone know if this game can run on Intel Chipsets? Portal ran flawlessly on this laptop, but it's really picky about what games it plays and what it doesn't.

The first one? Yeah, I would play for an hour or so and have to stop because I was about to puke.

So far I haven't had that problem with the sequel, but honestly I think it might have been because I played the original on PC in a small room where I had to sit in such a way that my face was like a foot away from the monitor, so...yeah, most games would make me want to puke sitting that close.

Yeah I had no problem playing it on the Xbox, but on the PC I'd get headaches occasionally.

If you're dying to get rid of some indie games. I know a good person to gift it to.

Anywho, does anyone want to play co-op with me? (Steam nickname: DaDennis1988)

I watched Necronopticous finish it this evening. Potatoes are actually really important in the game. Well, one is.

Oh man. Did anyone else get nauseous playing this game?

Oh yeah, big time. After a while I lowered the toggle sensitivity and my eyes stopped hurting a few minutes later.

[Meat Puppet]

I got all the potatoes, too. It was a lot of fun.

I get that with most First person games (mostly shooters) and I definitely felt it with Portal 1 and had to stop every half hour, but it was one of the few games that was worth the headaches and need to throw up. Portal 2 I only felt it mildly, maybe I've built up a resistance.

I heard it's like some kind of reverse motion sickness, where as in motion sickness your body moves but your eyes tell you're not moving in first person shooters your eyes tell you your moving while your body is stationary.
