Dr Dogg was talking about two opinions about Arkham City, that I guess were posted earlier today.
Well fuck me, I missed both, even though I've been scrolling this thread all day and, worse, I'm actually interested in AC opinions because I don't know why I've had it installed for months and I've never really wanted to begin it for real.
Here you go, guys. You can start jumping back through the quotes to reach the beginning. Spring-Loaded certainly loves Arkham City, and made some really good comments about it, so make sure you read what he wrote!I missed those too. I used to catch up on the thread whenever I got back from, like, sleeping or whatever, but lately the signal to noise ratio has been practically zero.
Maybe they already own the non-Steam version, or so I hopeI was looking at my friends list and notice that 28 of them own Hitman Absolution, but only 14 of them own Hitman Blood Money...these are sad times we're living in.
Also, I'm playing Hitman Contracts for the first time and it's pretty damn awesome.
my work place doesnt have wifi. which is weird considering you think a mall store would have one. we have the mall wifi. but they're spotty at best.

When I played Doom 1 I was surprised how well it held up personally. Especially when compared to Wolfenstein 3D.
Game had just the right amount of everything to keep it a enjoyable experience.

Steak is great for this, even on normal easymode rush hours. Lasagna... I dunno. Maybe I just need a little more time to get the hang of it, but lasagna destroys me. It's so easy to screw up the order or to forget that the third layer doesn't include the meat, or whatever it is.
I can't handle lasagna once the time pressure ramps up a bit.
Personally I surf GAF all the time on my phone but don't use more than about 150MB a month. Use wifi when you can, turn off images and especially animated gifs, turn off avatars. Use the mobile site. Ta-da.

I felt the same way about it. I got Wolfenstein 3D during the summer sale, hoping to get into it soon. Sad to hear it doesn't hold up as well, but I'll play through just for completion's sake. Really been meaning to play through a lot of the classic FPS games.

Mine is a mall store and we have wifi. The main reason is for ios7 factory resets you have to connect. How do you guys properly reset them or does your store not take them?
Project Temporality and Kill The Bad Guy are the only ones who look good for me. Later one reminds me of the Hitman IOS game.Humble plug in digital bundle

Contracts is great. But yeah, Blood Money is one of the best games ever made.
Here you go, guys. You can start jumping back through the quotes to reach the beginning. Spring-Loaded certainly loves Arkham City, and made some really good comments about it, so make sure you read what he wrote!
There are plenty of old games that hold up, really. Getting people to go back and play them is another matter.
Doom 1 is still one of my favorite shooters. It plays well, it looks good, it sounds good. The levels are complex especially by today's standards, the monsters are fun to kill, the action is fast and frantic, the weapons are creative and fun. There aren't any 30 minute cutscenes that destroy the flow of the action. There aren't any QTEs to dumb things down. You just run and shoot, no handholding, no dumbing down, no laborious tutorials. Just go have fun.
Doom 2 is kinda savage, though. they have those monsters that spawn other monsters and the levels become labyrinthine and obtuse in ways that make Ys II final dungeon seem like FFXIII
Yeah, I've had avatars/images/gifs turned off using mobile from pretty much day one. Though there's still that issue where images with an https URL are automatically loaded, but I'm not sure if there's anything that can be done about that.Personally I surf GAF all the time on my phone but don't use more than about 150MB a month. Use wifi when you can, turn off images and especially animated gifs, turn off avatars. Use the mobile site. Ta-da.
Oh of course. Its a fun experience when you find a old game that is still tons of fun to play. As you said though it can be hard to get people to play older stuff. What with backlogs and all. I always try to mix between playing new stuff and old stuff I missed.
The pure gameplay aspect of doom was very refreshing though when I played. I enjoys stories but it was nice to just run around destroying demons.

Wolf still holds up for me, but I'm incredibly biased. Early 90's PC gaming is my favorite nostalgic era and I was deep into the birth of the FPS genre; I still remember the day the Doom beta hit BBSes. I couldn't get it to run! I devoured it and every other FPS when it finally did come out, though. "Aliens TC" is the best mod ever, not this newfangled Skyrim nonsense!The biggest issue with Wolf3D is that it's really evident now that it was the "first" FPS experience. The levels can be way too much of a labyrinth and even on normal it can be quite challenging but not necessarily in a good way.
Still worth a play because of its historical significance though.
Doom 2 is good but not better, if you ask me. Romero designed most of Doom 1 while American McGee and Sandy Petersen designed most of Doom 2, and for all his cocky doucheness, Romero was a very good level designer in his prime.Doom 2 is on my list before getting to doom 3 and the expansion. I was always told it was better so I guess I'll find out.

Happy birthday! and awesome giveaway. I hope you have an excellent day!Today is my birthday...
Hey! I did a Adventures of Shuggy and a Torchlight giveaway. Im member of gaf since ~3 days, was my first and even Modbot reply to me after the shortraffle finished! Now I feel bad. I dont think i going to touch modbot again Y.YNow the Gun Monkeys/Adventures of Shuggy/Torchlight GOG giveaways can finally stop.
At least I found some new candidates for my personal blacklist
this happened to my yesterday 2 times using UPLAY. After ~30min I run out of ram while downloading a game. Restarted, open and update a game again in Uplay and run out of ram again. Restarted and dont open Uplay and all is good. So there is some memory leak in the update method in uplay for me.My computer has gotten god awfully slow when opening programs, clicking on a game in my steam list (takes forever to happen) among other things. This a sign my hdd is failing? Perhaps I need to click on one of those MakeMyPCFast banners.
the game looks really fun. I hope you can play with friends.I'm working on porting the game to Vita/PS4/Xbox One too, so when those are up I SHOULD be coming back here to give away keys (if any: I'll have to find out how many they are going to provide!)
really, it have answers for everything.JaseC, our resident Steam knowledge base.
Me too. I really want to try it.I keep looking at that Steam controller and just can't warm up to it.
How am I supposed to pull Shoryukens on that thing?
Yeah I did that too for TWAU. Is better to play all at the same time. But I can't do that with TWDI think it's fair to say that, while i admire telltale's attempt at making episodic gaming with seasons and whatnot a thing, their games work MUCH better played within a small period of time, like after the whole season is done.
I've been playing TWAU (got it for nice and cheap during the summer sale) and i can't even imagine waiting 2-3 months between episodes. There are small details that i miss now, as it is. If i had that much time between episodes then forget it, i'd be lost for the first couple of minutes just getting things back in order in my wee brain.
It also lets you move on from a meh episode and get right back into the swing of things. I found episode 2 to be kinda middling but 3 so far has been leagues better. If i had to sit there and stew in my disappointment for months i think i wouldn't be in a rush to get back into the swing of things later, when telltale decides to give me my next drop.
TDLR: you're probably better off waiting for the full season of a telltale product to be out to play it as a complete experience as well as save yourself some grief and money.
A man can dreamMaybe we are getting a really cool big patch that fixes all the problems with Steam?
Yeah blood money is the best. I have Absolution only because it come with the Hitman collection.I was looking at my friends list and notice that 28 of them own Hitman Absolution, but only 14 of them own Hitman Blood Money...these are sad times we're living in.
Also, I'm playing Hitman Contracts for the first time and it's pretty damn awesome.
Added to my list of must play.Planet Explorer review
he's serious.
Origins is awesome.
I was in since beta. I hope they give more free thing. I dont like much the dlcs with 4 new weapons and 2 cosmetics.Join the Payday 2 group if you want to help getting free stuff (including P1): http://steamcommunity.com/games/2186...95429883926509 http://www.overkillsoftware.com/crimefest/
exactly what happen to me.If you end up liking Blood Money as much as I do, you'll give up on Absolution after about the third level.
IO is very hit and miss, where they make some of the best games of their generations, 2 and Blood Money, and then something like Absolution, and then a million miles further down the list there's Kane and Lynch.
You know what you must do now.

Also, my favorite book is Masters of Doom. Amazingly fun read for anyone old enough to have been around then, and probably still pretty fun for those who weren't.
