If you bought Audiosurf and thne the story pack seriously e-mail Steam, they may jsut refund the first purchase. My roommate bought Civ IV (yes IV) a little while back, and realized he should ahve bought the "complete" IV pack, because it was like $5 more or something, e-mailed thme, and they allowed him to switch it around, after he had owned it for like a week.

A lot more indie packs for the upcoming holiday sale got "leaked" on CAG again, though the poster was annoyed that someone reposted the info on the official Steam forums *forehead palm*, for anyone who is interested, you should be able to find it pretty easily in the forum. All I gotta say is... potato?

Mordy, what video card is in your Mac? The min spec for Civ V is a Radeon 2600/GeForce 8600. If you have Intel, forget it.

xp to Nhex, I have a NVIDIA GeForce 9400M -- do you think it'll run okay?
― Mordy, Saturday, 18 December 2010 20:54 (thirteen years ago) link
it might, but I'm a little skeptical. it may still run but you'll definitely have to lower resolution, details, etc. which may or may not matter in a game like Civ
oh yeah for you oddworld fans, the oddbox is gonna be 50% off on the first day of the steam sale, so probably like $12.50
