I have most of the valve games apart form Portal 2 and both Left 4 Dead games.

Bought Metro 2033 and Crysis Maximum. Didn't bother with Crysis 2 as it is still £12.99 or extra £9 in bundle and by the time I would play it it would probably be less than that anyway :lol:

Crysis 1 (+expansion) + Crysis 2 were £9.99 as one pack yesterday. You obviously missed out on that one.

Yeah some of the offers had changed by time I got back and logged on at about 10pm. Which is annoying. But still, Crysis 2 apparently wasn't that great so I don't mind.

Metro 2033 actually looks quite good.

I got the unreal pack last year I think. Tried playing unreal 2 a few weeks ago, feels a bit crappy and weightless. The original unreal tournament is still absolutely fantastic though.

I've learnt my lesson with Crysis pack, it must have been one o the 8 hour "flash deals". I've just learnt however that I can buy games from my steam app. Awesome. I tried logging in on Internet and can't remember password. I clicked forgot password and it just fed me some bullshit instructions.

What's the odds it asks for password confirmation once I try and buy via app though.

If you have Steam Guard enabled, every time you login using a new device, you will need to put a code which is emailed to you in. You could temporarily disable Steam Guard to get rid of it. You can make it even easier by putting money in to your Steam wallet rather than having to enter payment details every time.

Bought a game on Steam which is not showing in my games Library. Bit difficult to install it this way.
Any of you ever had this problem?

Googled for a solution, but nobody seems to have one.

I have steam guard. But my iPhone was already logged in and I'd done the authenticate thing before. I just can't remember what my actual password is :/

Apparently you can remotely install if you buy on a mobile provided your PC/steam are running.

Cool, didn't know that.

I had the same problem with one of the games I bought. If you go to the store page, it will say something along the lines of 'You already own this game, click here to play/install' Click that and you can install it. Restart Steam and it should hopefully appear when you next restart.
