This. I came here to say this. PC version's great and runs well on low specs even.
It had it's limit upped to 50 installs, and that can be reset back up to 50.

I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream is such a memorable game. They don't make 'em like this anymore.
Nor have they ever.

Competent port. Can run on a toaster I think.
I guess that makes Steampunk Historical Fiction, then?

Been waiting for a year and a half for Crysis. Dead Rising games are also on sale, 2 or 3?

Brilliant. Works best with a controller though, has some issues with the mouse.
No, Bioshock is definitely not cyberpunk. Most of these games aren't. I think they just wanted to sue a broad term. Sci fi would've done the job just as well.

Does the steam version of System Shock 2 even run properly on modern PCs? The price is good but I'd rather wait until it's on sale on GOG. At least I know that version will run well.
That said, I just bought the Crysis package and Mirrors Edge. Thank you Steam overlords.

Yes, since the new IP holder basically did all the work for the Steam AND GoG release. GoG's team had NOTHING to do with the re-release IIRC.
It's the same build that is on Steam.

That latest Steam review is pretty scathing.
Counter-culture protagonist, working for an underground group who defies the authorities massive technological surveillance program and gets drawn into a political/corporate conspiracy. The city is clearly a dystopian one, just a perfectly designed, spotlessly clean dystopia.

It does have a bit of a cyberpunk flavor to the setting.
Heh, the one series that is the pure definition of cyberpunk is missing.

Huh, never knew until now that Binary Domain had a PC release.

Dreamfall Chapters is pretty ace by the way if you like narrative-heavy games. Book 2 just came out last week and it was like 8 hours worth of content. It'll probably be a 40-hour game by the time the last book comes out at this rate. I wouldn't exactly call it cyberpunk though considering half of it takes place in like a fantasy setting.

So ...
I'm about to get Binary Domain.
CAN I PLAY IT COMPETENTLY WITH KB/M?

Deus Ex and Deus Ex: Human Revolution are two of my favorite cyberpunk games ever.
Man, I'd kill for a legit remake of the original DX. Keep everything the same, just upgrade the graphics engine to something modern. That'd be amazing. Some of the games on that list I wouldn't call Cyberpunk, but hey, a good sale is a good sale!

Binary Domain's boss fights made me feel kinda sorta like I was playing a modern day 3D Contra.

I played and enjoyed The Longest Journey, bought Dreamfall Chapters recently, but haven't got around to playing it yet. Should I play Dreamfall: The Longest Journey first, or should I just look up the plot synopsis and jump right in to Chapters?

Binary Domain for £2.50; well it would be rude not to.
This is easy: Play Dreamfall first. Chapters references it often and the synopsis only covers the bare minimum.
Also: Aside from a few minor game design screwups, Dreamfall is great. I prefer it to The Longest Journey, myself.

Cool, cheers!
Consortium never gets the attention it deserves
Seconded. Not a long game, but you'll replay several times to figure it all out and explore different outcomes- I've never played anything that rewarded player choice as richly as this does, though obviously, that comes with the price of reduced length. Amazing soundtrack from Soule too. Really hope the sequel lives up.

Doesn't matter. Would rather stick my arm in a grinder before installing another game with Securom or DRM like it in it.
You know that game doesnt exist on Steam right?

Richard Morgan alone makes Crysis 2 cyberpunk. Which raises the question. Where is Syndicate? Origin only?
Very much so.
