KOTOR is amazing. I played it years ago, but I imagine it still holds up really well. Solar 2 is...meh. Not as interesting as it looks.

Also, why no KOTOR 2 on Steam? I never got the chance to pick that one up.
What makes KOTOR amazing? And would it work ok on an integrated Intel chipset?

Heh; Sirus, I tried it too; I was testing with the single earlier. That kind of sucks, but it makes perfect sense - buy three games for your friends, get one free for yourself, savings-wise. Sorry to doubt you, Nadaka. :P I think even if you didn't own Terraria, one piece of the 4-pack has to go to you, so it wouldn't have worked. I think I'll still hold a giveaway, because - hey, Terraria.

KotOR is a pretty good game. It's well worth its current price. It's decently long, with a better story than many Star Wars games, and I like the combat system. I would recommend buying it. I think it would work with an integrated set; it's an old game, that ran on the original Xbox.

You can buy a game you already own. Just click the "Add to cart" button, as usual.

I was going to buy a 4-pack to give to people, but 1) I don't have any friends on Steam and 2) I'm not sure if anyone on these forums who wants it doesn't have it.
Start a give-a-way. If enough people show up interested, go ahead and buy it.

No. Sorry. It is impossible to buy the 4pack of a game you already own. When you buy a 4 pack, you can't buy it as a gift. And if you already own the game, you can't buy it for yourself. You can add it to the cart, but there is no way to check out.
What?
*tries for himself*
WHAT.

WHAAAAT.  That's not cool.

Well, it's definitely cheap enough that I can afford it, and I do love me some Star Wars.

There are people that don't own Terraria. Just look at the Christmas Giveaway as proof.

Yeah, that's an issue: none of the three Terraria giveaways have happened there, have they? Only one of the December 25 Terraria drawings has occurred; there are still two copies left. Your mega-giveaway event is awesome, but they all forget to give their games away! Oh well, I suppose it won't make a difference.

More directly on-topic; Steam says that FEAR's multiplayer is no longer available. You can still play multiplayer, right, just not through Steam?

Yeah, basically this. It's just all around high quality. Great characters, good storyline, graphics were great at the time, good character advancement system, and the pause-realtime-to-assign-actions combat that I always think works really well. The light-side/dark-side choices are pretty shallow, but still add to the fun. It was one of the first games I remember playing that gave you the option to just be a total dick to almost everybody.

Correct, it was spun off into a F2P portion called F.E.A.R. Combat.  If you just want the multiplayer, you don't even need to buy it.

KoToR worked better as a prequel than the prequel movies - although that isn't saying much - but it is a really good RPG. Mechanics-wise it's a simplified neverwinter nights with stronger emphasis on dialogue. Lucasarts seems to pretend KoToR 2 never happened (which is supposedly why it hasn't gone to steam), although in my eyes it was a decent enough game too.

I've got coupons for -50% bit.trip.beat, -50% hoard, -50% valve and -25% meridian4 so far. Don't really want any of those except maybe the steam one (still haven't got episode2).

I have like three coupons from gifts, two of them are 50% off any Valve game, and another is 25% of any valve game.

God dammit.

Me. I'm not sure I like it, that's why I haven't bought it.
Just bought the frozenbyte collection and the super indie bundle. I'm not even sure why. WHY STEAM?! WHYYYY....
