    @XboxP3 why is it that for those of us who buy full price games on console still have to purchase a subscription service to play online whereas if someone buys it digitally at the same price on @Steam there's no subscription needed they just have access to the full game?

  • PinDin7 Magistar-Alex (@PinDin7) reported

    @RL2407 @deadspace @Steam a story that should've been expanded upon & included in the main game for 3 rather than what was focused upon instead (Norton Ellie Isaac love issues, military Unitologists?) how is Gabe's wife immune to Marker's effects? Does it mean her baby as well is immune? ah the stories!—

  • Neodan_el Danyelalejandro Fresh beginning (@Neodan_el) reported

    @SheMakesMeSo @GGdeals @Steam Yeah, that very same problem

    @XBLFlynn @Nelstar15 @Steam ah ok, I'm the noob. Still, strange they dont bother streaming that along with it. Maybe it is a legit error then

  • 4thSurvivorHUNK HUNK (@4thSurvivorHUNK) reported

    @deadspace @Steam Dead Space 2 doesn't currently work on Steam. People claim a work around finding a DLL file to make it run on modern hardware. Steam needs to fix that port if you are offering it as a pre-order incentive for the remake.

  • SheMakesMeSo ****** (@SheMakesMeSo) reported

    @Nitmare64 @GGdeals @Steam I had no issues with Portal RTX, but for this I'm getting "There was a problem adding this product to your Steam account."

  • cucumberrgreen Summer Sobeck (@cucumberrgreen) reported

    @Neodan_el @GGdeals @Steam Are you also getting "There was a problem adding this product to your Steam account."? That's what I've gotten trying to add it.
