Just buy it from here..

http://www.mightyape.com.au/product/...efuge/3988600/

Its a steamworks game anyway, so it'll probably work out the same price.. plus you don't have to download it..

Thanks a bunch.
If you want to see where it's coming from just go to launch the game and it tells you who is hosting the content you're downloading

Thanks, I had no idea. It's not the most obvious thing to try. I've replaced it with Frey's filter and I used the unmetered IPs list from Internode's site.

I'd imagine they'd be in this long list, then?

Not a discount but still a damn good bargain. GOG now has the Neverwinter Nights Diamond Edition for $9.99

lol, I'm in the same boat. My Paypal account gets manually topped up, but there's not quite enough in there at the moment. This also means that by the time the money gets transferred (a week? come on.), the deal's over. See if someone can get a 4 of L4D2 pack together, because that's down to $30, as well.

...otherwise, I'll just get Bioshock. Which reminds me, there also seems to be a Halloween sale:
Silent Hill Homecoming -50% $29.99 $14.99 USD
Dark Fall: Lost Souls -66% $19.99 $6.79 USD
Bioshock -75% $19.99 $4.99 USD
Burn Zombie Burn! -50% $9.99 $4.99 USD
Ghost Master -50% $4.99 $2.49 USD
Ghostbusters: The Videogame -50% $19.99 $9.99 USD
Dracula Origin -75% $19.99 $4.99 USD
Nation Red -66% $9.99 $3.39 USD
Haunted House -50% $19.99 $9.99 USD
Worms Reloaded -50% $19.99 $9.99 USD
Dead Space -50% $14.99 $7.49 USD
Alter Ego -50% $29.99 $14.99 USD
Zombie Driver -50% $9.99 $4.99 USD
Resident Evil 5 -50% $29.99 $14.99 USD
Doom Rails -50% $9.99 $4.99 USD

Don't have a CC SilverSilence?
Also as l4d2 is cheap again I feel it worth to mention, remember kids,
Spoiler below, highlight to read:
buying through a US vpn will give you a uncensored L4D2. You can get a free trial through anonymity network. You know it's working if when you go to buy on the steam store it doesn't say low violence version. Additionally I found it easier to buy through my web browser vs steam, it wasn't as laggy

Bear in mind that if you're not physically in the country you shouldn't buy the uncensored game. But what's to say you're not at a hotel on a holiday? Please don't harass me with questions, I've posted before as have others, if you can't work it out you'll have to google it.

Would anyone be interested in a Four pack? Assuming they could buy through a VPN and sell the other copies to SilverSilence, myself and someone else...
