You will have to put me down for Guild Wars: Factions, Danny. Got it on the cheap! Ohhh yeahhh!

And TF2, I don't believe I saw my name on the list.

I also got Empire: Total War, thanks to someone mentioned the 48 hour madness deal on GoGamer.com - thanks whoever you are. I cannot find the post that said it so I just have to say "whoever you are".

Added. Only TF2 or are there more games?
Ok I just got from the store with a shiny new copy of left 4 Dead. So excited I could crap my pants (but I won't)! Please add me to the L4D list too :)
Done.

Add me to the up for a game list
dekkarax said:
I currently play:
TF2
Gmod
L4D
DoW (expansions up to DC)
Red Alert 3

I am planning to buy
DoW2
Empire: total war
Also, I think a Quake Live list would be a good idea, since its free, so, permission to make a steam group?
EDIT: I've got a laptop which I seem to be using more than my pc at the moment, so I've marked the games I won't be able to run on my laptop in bold.
Tell me when you get those new games and I'll add them to the list.

How did I miss this thread? :(

Well, just joined both the Esc Group and DoW 2 group, and considering that I have been able to fix the connection problem I had with GFWL, hope to play with you good folks soon.
Done.

Hey when is the TF2 event? I hope I won't be gone during Spring Break...
It's up to T.R.O.A.E. really. He's the brains behind this one.

You're welcome. Even though I was resolved not to buy any more games, that sale was just too good, and I snapped. No new games for me until Q3 2009 (let's see how long I last with that one).

Well, as long as it doesn't have a subscription fee, I'm in for Team Fortress 2 (Orange Box for my b-day, yay!)
So, how do I get to play with Escapist members then?

EDIT: also, Do I need the Steam Program in my laptop to play? I have an account "Ramthundar" but I deleted the program cause I thought it took space.

This thread should be stickied for the information that it disseminates. At least we wouldn't be able to lose it after long periods of discussion, then...

It was stickied for a few weeks. Unfortunately, it got unstickied, I'm not sure why.

You need steam to play the Orange Box or any other Valve games for that matter. We also use it for its groups so people can easily contact other Escapists with the same game. Steam is definitely worth the hard drive space.

And just to remind everyone: Many of the game names in the OP are links. Click on the link to go to the Steam group page, then join the Steam group.

I just bought the TF2 and garry's mod package, I also joined the group on steam already, I'll be running these on minimum system requirement for a week or two before I can buy my new computer so I hope that isn't a problem.

Steam ID: http://steamcommunity.com/id/darkstone100/
Low settings are never a problem, even says so in the OP (Somewhere). Honestly, that thing is getting dusty. I should change the picture or something. You're all on your respective lists by the way.

You do indeed need Steam. It DOES take up space, but that's because all the games you install from valve or from the steam shop are stored in the steam directory. Don't ever delete it whole-sale. I tried moving it once and none of the games worked (Steam was looking in the wrong place.). It was easy to fix, but by gum it took a while.

As for finding fellow escapists, well, you'll need to take a look at your steam friends list. There's a subheading there for every group you join where you can view all the online members. Simply strike up a conversation with one of them and get into a game!

The deal was that it would remain stickied so long as I kept it updated. I guess I just didn't update the OP enough to fill the quota. We also havn't been having as many events in the new year as we did before. Doesn't really matter, you can move it to the top of your page by bookmarking it with the nifty forum feature.

I would like to start a Farcry 2 group.

Despite the game's far-from-perfect single player, FC2 (in my opinion) has excellent multiplayer and one of the best map editors and custom-map sharing systems of any game that I have played.

My games:
Farcry(1)
Farcry 2
Left 4 Dead
Crysis Wars
Team Fortress 2
Counter-Strike: Source
Guild Wars

P.S. I currently have a custom map and I'm looking for a good sized group of players to give me some feedback on. If you would like to have a good match and give me a little help, my steam is TMAN10112 (add me to your friends). Once there is a decent amount of people waiting I will host the match and send everyone invites.

Go for it. Make the steam group and send me the link so I can hotlink the game heading in the OP. If you want me to make you a picture with the Escapist 'e' in it, or I can send it to you, just ask. I have to request though that you invite me and make me a group admin so I can post group announcements and people can access the groups from my profile.

I've made you a list, now we just need the steam group. :)

[HEADING=1]Update![/HEADING]
[HEADING=2]Far Cry 2 List Created![/HEADING]
Check the OP. There may be a steam group shortly so watch this space!
[HEADING=2]Crysis: Warhead List Created![/HEADING]
Seemed kind of contradictory to have that as the picture but no list for it.
[HEADING=1]Join Teams in the Left 4 Dead league! Do it now![/HEADING] [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.79315#1009128]
