    It has to be in your inventory and not in your game library. It has to be "giftable" in order to trade it within Steam. This is why many of my offerings on my list have "Key for" next to them - they aren't in my inventory at all. They are actual key's I have available to be registered within Steam. This method requires a lot more trust from both parties.

    Oh, in that case I'm not gonna be able to trade, it's in my Library already. Hence, the game must be in the inventory in the first place. Shame. I've had enough with Sleeping Dogs anyway, got the achievements and everything. Thanks LNC. Nice thread you started here and there. :cool:

    Yeah, Steam doesn't support 2nd-hand games.

    Can anyone tell what is 'Steam' and how can we use it for gaming?

    Steam is an online games retailer, with some great offers and free games, I recommend team fortress 2, its free and awesome.

    I'd really like a copy of Fallout 3 GOTY or New Vegas Ultimate if anyone's feeling generous :)

    What's your steam account name so I can have an idea of what you already have... or you could post a list of wants.

    Surprise me. :)

    If you really need some nudge in a direction, games playable with a controller are good for me at the moment.

  14. St1ckM4n TechSpot Maniac Posts: 1,509   +196

    It's the one from the Humble Bundle. All it says is 'Dawn of War', so probably not 2. :(

    I just released my beginners guide for new traders. There are also details about money trades and game code trades...even tho I'll add more to that and also a complete "how to" for PayPal when I have some spare time.
    Feel free to leave feedback there or here or via PM...anything and everything is more than welcome :)

    It's been mentioned here before - trades need to be for eligible 'unwanted' games only. Trading for $$ is against Steam's ToS and so probably also go against TS forum rules.

    True but it's still being done and it's also pretty common so to reduce the chance of noob n newcommers of getting scammed I also had to write about that there.
