Yeah I love Aardman and I love Telltale, so I thought they'd be a match made in heaven. I've only played a little bit of the first episode so far, and while I think they nailed the presentation, the story and puzzles don't seem up to snuff IMO. I'll play some more and get back to you, though.

Looks like someone hacked the steam user forums yesterday.
And heres the news.... "We learned that intruders obtained access to a Steam database in addition to the forums. This database contained information including user names, hashed and salted passwords, game purchases, email addresses, billing addresses and encrypted credit card information. We do not have evidence that encrypted credit card numbers or personally identifying information were taken by the intruders, or that the protection on credit card numbers or passwords was cracked. We are still investigating."
Our Steam forums were defaced on the evening of Sunday, November 6. We began investigating and found that the intrusion goes beyond the Steam forums.

We don’t have evidence of credit card misuse at this time. Nonetheless you should watch your credit card activity and statements closely.
While we only know of a few forum accounts that have been compromised, all forum users will be required to change their passwords the next time they login. If you have used your Steam forum password on other accounts you should change those passwords as well.
We do not know of any compromised Steam accounts, so we are not planning to force a change of Steam account passwords (which are separate from forum passwords). However, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to change that as well, especially if it is the same as your Steam forum account password.
We will reopen the forums as soon as we can.
I am truly sorry this happened, and I apologize for the inconvenience.

Yeah, I want free stuff for this. It's utterly outrageous that they shosuld get hacked like this. Especially right after the huge PSN thing. In fact, I think they're planning this >:[

I do want free stuff of course, but Valve is one of the most generous companies I know. Huuuuuuge Steam sales, free TF2, several giveaways of Portal, free TF2 updates, most companies would make you pay for TF2 updates. Cough Capcom cough

Considering that the hacks haven't really shown much of actual damage (I'm seemingly unaffected, I never let Steam remember my credit info ), I doubt that they'll do much other than fix what was broken.
The big difference between this and Sony is that your credit card info is actually encrypted

E.Y.E.: Divine Cybermancy is the daily deal, going for half-price at $10. The game IS Deus Ex, only in the Source Engine and made by people who are French. Which means it's freaking awesome. BUY IT.
