Hmm I was gifted L4D a year ago when it went on sale but never claimed it - Im guessing if I cant retrieve the email I lost out? Might buy it again then if it adds extra to L4D2

Can you not simply run steam, click on Games at the top and click on gifts and guest passes. If you was gifted a game I would assume it would show up there for you to redeem it.
 
I wonder how much money steam is making off all of this. I mean there are lots of games here I would never consider buying, but when they are sold at prices like these I am willing to buy games that I would not usually buy.

Just goes to show if games were cheaper more people would buy them. Even the most hardent pirate would wrestle with his conscience over pirating max paynes when they can be bought for £2.24!
 
Bought Osmos last week for £2.49 with GFWLIVE achievements from MS.

Both Max Paynes have to be played in 4:3 aspect ratio otherwise the FOV is wrong and nothing can be done to fix it either. You can either have it in 4:3 with pillowboxing or have headaches if you stretch the image to fill your screen.

Max Payne2 also has some minor issues with certain displays that cannot handle the back buffer effects when the dream sequences have rapid colour, fog & screen distortion shifts either! Play Max Payne2 on a CRT monitor then watch the same sequences on any TFT as there is a massive difference & you also get to see all the limitations of TFT vs CRT. Max Payne2 really was optimised for CRT displays as obviously back in the day that was the standard!!
I played through both again recently at 1680x1050 on a SM2233RZ and had none of those issues.

I would certainly recommend both these games, I think the graphics still look pretty good today and the story is well written.
