I enjoyed Deus Ex and Deus Ex HR.

Is the fall and invisible war worth picking up?

While I enjoyed Invisible War for what it was when it was first released, it was clearly inferior to the original back then and I think a lot of the things around that game - like it's pre-Half Life 2 "physics" - have made it age very poorly. Also, universal ammo sucks then, now and forever.

I haven't played The Fall.

So far the only thing I've bought off this sale is Dues Ex: Game of the Year edition so I can more easily reinstall it when people mention Dues Ex and get me thinking about how fucking great it is.

Such as right now.

it's 16$ on GMG VIP

I can't see it there? My VIP section only has spin Tires, chivalry and Rome

 

[jmizzal]

how do you get vip? I would love NBA 2K15 for 30 bucks, plus I have 13.87 in credits

 

[jett]

How does Shadow Warrior play with a controller? I know it's a weird thing to ask for a PC-first game, but I pretty much do my gaming exclusively on my TV these days.

It's my GotY, but I think no one would claim that it has particularly broad appeal.

Over Original Sin? :0

It has native support and works excellently.

Nice, bought.

 

[FloatOn]

oh shit

evil within or mgr?

 

[AlphaProspector]

You know what GMG has for sale that never comes on (proper) sale? Rocket Knight and Saw, both 75% off, both can receive the 20% voucher. So bought!

So, guys, where is the hidden gems thread/talk? Come on, we can all see the front page stuff, let's scout what lies beneath!

 

[esms]

How would Wolfenstein The New Order run on my setup? RAGE ran fine on my system.

i5-3570k
MSI 7870
8GB RAM

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

oh shit

evil within or mgr?

That is a tough call. Both are great, but MGR runs like butter. I'd recommend MGR if you like action more than survival horror.

But you always wait for the dailies. Front page is all that matterssssssssssssssssssss

 

[Pakkidis]

Do I pull the trigger on Castlevania Lords of Shadow 1+2?

Give me guidance GAF.....I

 

[jakomocha]

Is Tropico 5 worth it? It is $14. How's the multiplayer?
Also, how is its DLC?

 

[Conezays]

oh shit

MGR.

 

[FoneBone]

What are the chances of Lego Batman 3 getting marked down?

Believe it or not, it's only about $16 on Nuuvem.

The other WBIE LEGO games are also the cheapest they've ever been, at $2.60-3.20.

I don't think Wolfenstein is significantly more demanding than RAGE was. I've got a lesser system and played through both without breaking 60FPS. You can probably try downsampling it, even.

 

[Flunkie]

The Long Dark advanced steam says it's only a daily deal and will expire in 15 hours... not true right?

Fantastic news. Thanks man.

 

[KePoW]

Is Might & Magic 6 good? The style is a turn-based RPG like Eye of the Beholder right??

 

[Lomax]

Whenever a deal says it will expire on its store page, is when it will expire.

How is Nuuvem? I've never used it before. I'd be going through Paypal, and live in Canada. Usually no trouble?

 

[bounchfx]

what the shit! I want dishonored for $3.99 :O

or hell even 4.99

 

[Gibbo]

My asia store does not have metal gear rising. What is the work around for this? I know buying it from the us store via a vpn will get you banned. Can someone just gift this to me?

 

[FoneBone]

I've had no trouble going through Paypal in the US. There are a few games on there that are region-locked, but most aren't.

 

[me0wish]

I don't know about the newer games, but M&M clash of heroes is one of the best games I've ever played.

It's so good that I would force my self to install uplay if it was required.

 

[kevin1025]

I mostly wanted to use it, for now at least, for a bunch of the LEGO games after you linked to them. I'll give it a try tomorrow!

FWIW today I've bought Metal Gear Rising and LEGO Marvel from them and activated them with no issues.

 

[robotzombie]

fyi, if anyone is hesitating to bite on Shadow Warrior, I highly suggest you go for it. I did and it is extremely fun. Such a great old school action shooter

 

[Jintor]

Is wolfenstein steam works? $16 GMG is tempting

 

[DogMeat77]

Is wolfenstein steam works? $16 GMG is tempting

Yes and it is worth $16 if you like FPS. I enjoyed it very much even at retail price. It is hard for me to focus and complete steam games these days, but I can say it was a joy to beat.

Thanks, I'm definitely going for a few of the LEGO games (Batman 2, Marvel and LEGO Movie!).

 

[OminousShadow]

I've always heard people talking about these steam sales but I never actually thought they were that big of a deal. But I just checked it out a while ago and maaaaaaannnnnn these deals are amazing. I've already spent like 60 bucks.

Sad thing is I can't even play them right now because steam isn't working on my computer for some reason. Why T-T

I don't think all of them activate on Steam, unless the pack itself comes with a key. Or am I wrong?

EDIT: Also, it's $4.80 with GAMERSGATE-TURKEY discount code.

Hope it's available in Japan. Or I'll have to VPN it... If that works...

I just bought the pack and it came with a single Steam key that is currently installing Spellforce 2 Gold, Spellforce Platinum, Spellforce 2 Faith in Destiny and Spellforce 2 Demons of the Past. Looks like the whole series to me.

 

[JCV]

Has anyone tried Freedom Planet? How is it?

 

[Decado]

I have the same specs as you, but with the 4gb 670. I wasn't too happy with the performance of Wolfenstein considering how it looked. Turned down quite a few settings, but never managed to get a solid 60 fps. My framerate was all over the place, and would really tank in the "hub" area of the game. It wasn't bad enough to deter me from playing the game, but it was frustrating.

Disappointing. Was hoping they'd iron out those performance issues. Since my card is only 2gb, I'm a bit worried...

 

[komorebi]

Do it. I picked it up from GMG and I'm blown away by how good it is. The hype was/is real.

There are some tricks I've seen posted here on GAF that I didn't try, due to how far I was in the game when I read them. I still think it's a good game, and worth playing. I just wasn't happy with the performance.

 

[kevin1025]

I recommend giving the demo a try. It's the first few chapters of the game, and should give you an idea of what your PC is capable of. I have an i5-3570k, 8GB, and an HD7870, and it ran perfectly, no problems at all.

 

[Sinatar]

Is Might & Magic 6 good? The style is a turn-based RPG like Eye of the Beholder right??

Might & Magic VI is an incredible RPG, but it's not the one that's on sale, Might & Magic HEROES 6 is the one that is on sale, it's a strategy game. It's also quite good.

A hell. I had a little credit at gmg, too, and this is one of the few deals it actually applies to. Pulled the trigger. Fingers crossed I can get it running well. Quite excited for the game.

I have the exact same rig as you, and unless they patched it lately or in the past couple of months, it runs poorly. Sadly it has something to do with AMD cards. I found a fix and it involves messing around with the .exe and after that it ran much better, but you can no longer launch it from Steam if you do that.

Well, shit. I already bought it and am installing as we speak, so we'll see how it goes. I remember when I played RAGE I had to mess around with config files to get it to run at a solid 60 FPS with very low pop-in. If the tweaking is something like that, then I'm willing to do it.
