S'okay, I found some people on Cheap Ass Gamer who were willing to put together a group buy and got it that way.

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

Turns out Audiosurf has a hardcoded 60 minute limit on tracks it'll play.  Boooo.

In an earlier version - and I don't know if it got patched out - I seem to recall noticing that Audiosurf started to get a tiny bit out of sync if you go too far past, say, half an hour.

Research suggests that it depends on strength of computer - processing power, memory.  Shitty computers can have sync problems at 15 minutes, stronger ones can keep going a lot longer.  I'd at least like the option, even if I have to edit an ini to get it.

It's probably the developer's way of avoiding overflow errors or something.

Bitch I didn't go to the trouble of putting Der Ring des Nibelungen into one giant 14:47 mp3 to *not* play it.

In other news, this is a thing that exists.

$954.30 USD

(Would be nice to compare against what you actually paid, though.)

Well what you actually paid is hard to measure.  I think I've actually paid about $40 into the steam store, and about $120 into retail boxed copies of games that require Steam, but my stuff is valued at like $364.

Part of it's things like that indie pack from a couple days ago costing $5 and containing $60 worth of "base price".

I get $1781.68 USD, but I know for a fact that most of the stuff in there has been paid much, much lower than listed. Heck, the Orange Box adds up to like 150. If anything, it's an indicator of how much bang I've had for my buck, which is a ratio I'm quite satisfied with, to be honest.

The only thing more depressing than having almost a thousand dollars in games is all my friends having almost twice that.

I buy almost all Steam games on sale, but I'm at about $1200 according to this.
