I think steam's features and browser are really cool, but I hate them for being so slow to load.

Prepare for the most awesome thing you'll see all day.

So I basically hit a mini-goldmine tonight. I uncrated two unusuals in a row. The first unusuals I've ever even uncrated period. Uncrated them from Robocrates and keys bought from the Steam Market with money I had on my Steam Wallet just from selling those trading cards.




These go for between 15-20 keys each. As keys are valued at about $2.50 from the Mann Co. store and about $2.25-$2.40 on the Steam Marketplace.

So, if I ever decide to trade them, at least one of them (I'm thinking about trading the Cone), I could maybe (after all is said and done), get about $40 added to my Steam Wallet as a conservative estimate if I sell just one. Pure profit.

monetary profit from playing games. I hope in the future we will see something similar happening in more and more games

I got around 150ish usd from Diablo 3 when the RMAH launched, all gone in a Steam sale lol. Trying to get a profitable item now is almost impossible.




State of Decay comes out Tuesday, don't know if I should get the 360 version or wait for the PC one :/

[Shawn Zipay]

Still with more things to sell I'm already at:

Update: $58.26 is the final take away from today's selling of keys and trading cards. BRING ON THE SUMMER SALE!

[SgtMattBaker]

BTW State of Decay is good, but definitely not for 360, gonna wait for the PC version.

[Shawn Zipay]

If I knew when the PC version was actually going to come out, it'd make this easier. Esp. when I have spare MS Points to use up prior to the new consoles coming out.

Got this background tonight after I crafted the L4D2 badge. It's apparently a "rare" background that's going for around $5+ on the Market.



Also, as of right now (without having sold that background) I'm up to $75.36 in my Steam Wallet.

[SgtMattBaker]

What? How are you making money?

I've only got 3 badges, 2 from Don't Starve and 2 from CS:GO and they go for around $1.3 each.

Next up on the blog will be Commander Mode! DUN DUN DUUUUUUNNN!

It hopefully wont be a rant this time

If Implemented it still wouldn't be good enough. And Battlefield 3 got it all right, they messed it up with 4! /s
