I got a bunch of games from the Steam sale, and spent more than I probably should have. Most was 50-75% off. Happy with that.
Games (and DLC) I bought:
- Borderlands 2 (4 pk; I gave the 3 other copies to Zach, Lauren & Thomas)
- Borderlands 2: Season Pass
- Borderlands 2: Creature Slaughterdome
- Borderlands 2: Mechromancer Pack
- Borderlands 2: Psycho Pack
- Portal and Portal 2 (bundle)
- Poker Night 2
- Psychonauts
Feel free to add me on steam, btw. I'm xfirefly9x over there, as well. (Let me know what your username is here if it's a different one than on LJ.)

That all said, after a couple of days of playing them and having no issues, suddenly I can barely play for the lag. Everything else works fine. It's just Steam games. Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this? I've run a quick scan (was fine), am running a full scan now (still going), moved a few things to external hard drives to clear up some space... not sure what else I can do. :/
Additionally, when I opened Borderlands 2 to play today, it has two small message windows up top of the screen, one of which counts down from 60 continuously and has a "close" box that I can't click, and a second that displays the time. I've no idea how to get rid of them. The messages remain any time I'm in game or in a menu (again, only Steam games). No amount of googling has helped yet. And I couldn't find options through Steam itself to close those windows. (Shift+tab brings up Steam options, but still, those boxes won't allow me to click them closed.) Ideas?
