I want something closer to GT

Dirt Rally is one of the best racing games released in a while, although:
a.) It's rally and not circuit racing, obviously. It is a sim though, so that's closer to GT at least.
b.) The career mode is pretty basic (race in championships -> earn money -> buy new cars -> repeat). Definitely decent enough for me, and there's constantly changing multiplayer challenges that add some variation (and also earn you money you can spend in career mode).
Aside from that, the driving model is amazing, there's a lot of cars that all mostly drive very differently from each other, giving you tons of variety. The same goes for the tracks, since each location requires a different play style.

It's also really hard, although you progress through career mode even if you don't win, so you're never really going to be stuck. You just crash a lot.
 
guys, is there anything similar to Legend of Kay on Steam? Specifically I'm looking forward for something like Yooka Laylee, old school action adventure game
 
man i hate fighting those golem things in PoP the warrior within, i had trouble telling which hand it uses to grab me so I can't tell which way to dodge, especially since you sorta have to do it early

The golems are easy to read... The checkpoints could be better I do agree on that. I do love the platforming and combat flow. WIsh more modern games did that type of platforming.
 
I'm considering Dirt Rally, not sure this kind of racing is what I'm after though. Does it work well with a gamepad?

It works very well with a gamepad. Sure, a wheel is technically better and makes things slightly easier, but the game's still fun with a controller and you can achieve results that are every bit as good as those of people playing with a wheel. Hell, there's people getting top 10 times with a mouse and keyboard.

I've only played the game with a controller and still consider it to be the best racing game I've ever played.

But yeah, rally is definitely a different kind of racing than something you'd get in GT. It's fun though.

I couldn't tell until I read this random guy's comment on youtube:

here a hint when you are hiting in the neck : if golem touch his balls with the left hand go to left, if he touch his balls with right hand go to right

It's £23 from cdkeys using their Christmas discount code

wbacon from Capcom has already been on here saying that anyone buying from there is taking a risk of getting a region locked key since they have no idea whatsoever where CDKeys is getting their keys from for RE7

Amazon UK has physical copy for same price as cd key sites and even cheaper if you have prime. (But UK only mostly, shipping might kill it)
 
Furi is £7.72 on WinGameStore with the pcgames5off code. Easily the cheapest it has ever been.

Furi is at its lowest price at Wingamestore.

I believe if you use PCgames5off you get an extra 5%

Anybody still reluctant to buy the game at that price better have a good reason...

If needed, I remind you all it is a GOTY for many people...
 
If I get watch_dogs 2 does it require uplay? I have it on uPlay currently and haaaate using that system (currently have my account suspended for no apparent reason).

Tangentially Steam related because the game will release on Steam eventually (already approved on greenlight) but KEEN is having a thunderclap for the 30th, when their indiegogo crowdfunding campaign will launch.
I played the alpha they have available back when it was first put up for voting on greelight and it surprised me in regards to how enjoyable it was to play for it being just an alpha.
Give it a look and maybe join their thunderclap if you find it interesting. KEEN is also another one of the SE Collective approved games.

I concur.

I wasn't a fan of them giving the game for free/cheap to playstation users, and then selling it for €25 on PC.
