They're quite awesome, but for those who are on the fence about buying them because of their cost -- Valve
Store charges $10 - $16 for shipping, so you'd really be paying about double the price. Free shipping if you purchase over $50 worth of stuff though! Extortion hooooo! Store sappin' mah wallet!
Step 1: Take the example picture.
Step 2: Use the squares as a template to make a page of postcards.
Step 3: Print both out.
Step 4: Craft knife.
Step 5: Thin piece of craft board.
Step 6: Glue.
Step 7: Cheap and easy not overpriced TF2 cards. #teamfortress2
@WhiteMage Says Fix the Promotion System:
Step 8:Call your mother and tell her the card you sent her was stolen
Step 9: Apologize to your mother after she yells at you and tells you she raised you better than that. #teamfortress2
To maintain any form of quality from example pictures that small, you'd have to print them at most half the size they are on your screen. I agree with everyone else who says don't do it. #teamfortress2
@-MasterDex-: Not saying ripping them off like that is the way to go, but not saying paying $30 (including shipping) for greeting cards is either.
Valve Store is really an embarrassment to me. They're such a great developer, but they let the people who run their store knowingly charge insane shipping just to force you into buying over $50 of stuff for free shipping. #teamfortress2
If I wasn't so broke, I'd get those TF2 cards in a heartbeat. Then again, though, I'm not sure how many people I know would actually appreciate them.
Since the post doesn't make it clear, there are actually two sets of TF2 cards. That makes 20 TF2 cards, 10 L4D cards, and 10 LFD2 cards (which all seem to focus on the zombies). #teamfortress2
I don't know if Mike has a deal with Destineer, but Christmas titles on the Nintendo consoles is nothing new and has been done before, especially in the mini-game category. I don't remember the last time I saw an article on holiday themed games on Kotaku but here's to Xmas. #wewishyouamerrychristmas
@Michael Dukakis: Of choir you both decide to trade puns without me. Santa I wish you guys could see what I could bring to the table, but I guess the best I can do is snow you guys what I'm capable of.
Used to be that the PS3 had no games. Now it has most of the games that used to be exclusive to the 360, except for Gears and Halo (neither of which are more than mediocre). It's a whole new ballgame now.
Wow. Amazing. Even when an article is praising the purported sales ability of Sony coming into the holidays, you manage to continue to throw mud at the 360.
Does it bother you THAT MUCH that people are enjoying things that you refuse to accept? I find it hard to believe you're older than a teenager, for surely someone with a disposable income would recognize that there are still quite a few exclusives to both systems, making both worth purchasing.
If Gears and Halo are nothing more than mediocre, their respective Metacritic scores and sales ability make 99 percent of PS3 games look like complete turds. Thats probably not a very wise thing to say.
Maybe everything you say should come with a disclaimer
"Warning: I are fanboy. I do not own a 360. I do not like it if people enjoy what they are getting with a 360. I will tell you you are stupid. Theres no point to having a 360. But if anyone calls me on any of this, I'll backpedal and play the opinion card, when I've clearly already stated what I've said as factual"
(to anyone else, a click of his name equals a comments history. I wish I had the power to re-pink commenters)
Well, considering the average gamer is a 30 year old male, I am fairly certain they have both the maturity and foresight to understand that ALL games sales benefit their preferred system. Additionally, I would argue that brand devotion* is not that prevalent among your "average" gamer.
*Brand devotion= fanboy. It is possible to have brand loyalty without being a fanboy. For example: I buy Coke because I prefer the taste but I would never a accost a person for choosing Pepsi.
Are you kidding me. If I found out someone was actually buying and enjoying coke, which I do not care for, I would be sure to run straight to the internet and tell everyone how stupid coke drinkers are.
Jesus, you guys are stupid. Pepsi is so much better. How more stupid could you possibly be? Its obvious Pepsi is going to win this soft drink war.
@animeman59: Dr. Pepper is a casual soft drink. It's ruining the industry. Hardcore soda drinkers choose Coca-Cola or Pepsi. Only little kids and old people drink Dr. Pepper.
I bought a Dr. Pepper once; I took two gulps and never touched it again. Now it's in my fridge collecting dust.
I totally agree. Hoarders, buy the PS3 slim now and flip it on Ebay in late November for serious profit.
Almost everyone already has a 360 or Wii. It makes sense that with Blu-Ray and HDTVs becoming more standard, along with the PS3 price drop many were waiting for (including myself, got my slim a few weeks ago), that PS3 will sell very well this holiday season.
