So this is number 10 on the list of best-selling games right now, even though the encore sale ended a couple of hours ago and it hasn't been in the spotlight since before Christmas Eve. That's pretty impressive, I'd say.

$18...so tempting. I just hate biting early then having the port be shit.

I also wasn't sold when I played the demo due to the shit camera.

Preordered from Gamefly for 16 dollars. Do they do preloading? Can't find an email about it from them.. Order says activation key is from 1/9 though..

This is why in egine cutscenes are always better.

Maybe games should start streaming their cutscenes, that has to be better than this.

That is all..

Well, hopefully this means they are at least 1080p res or something. Pretty sure it was the same case for Arkham City, they had cutscenes rather than in-engine stuff but I could swear it was pre-rendered but not at 720p or something blurry.

 

[teokrazia]

Downloading the 23.7 GB, right into my veins.

 

[CrackPebbles]

I hope yall pc bros like it! im thinking about double dipping just to support the fact that it got ported.

 

[MattyH]

does the preload automatically go to the default steam folder? because my steam apps are on another hard drive but steam is installed on my main drive

 

[Zafir]

Still annoyed by the fact you still can't choose download/install location for pre-loads. I've made a Junction, but last time I tried it still wanted to install the game to my C drive without asking me. >.<

See my moan above. It automatically puts it to your C(or where ever you've installed Steam to) drive, you can junction the folder to another hard disk, but problems still arise when you want to install it.

 

[BY2K]

Pre-loading, wooooo!

 

[-PXG-]

It's not pre-loading for me yet :/

 

[Sober]

Restart Steam

 

[Lostconfused]

Why is there still almost a week long wait for GOTY 2014!!!

 

[Storm360]

Downloading the Pre-Load now, so hyped.

Yeah, I wish they just dropped the January 1st bomb on us. This wait is painful.

 

[Peff]

Pre-loading! File size should mean that we get the PS3 cutscenes, which is cool because the compression on 360 was nothing short of hilarious..

 

[mullet2000]

Got it for $18 on Green Man Gaming but no Steam key yet to preload it. Boooo!

 

[Vibranium]

I've got it pre-loading, I can't wait to play even though I'll have to turn some settings down to have it running really well.

Then I can get to Armstrong, that fight looks freaking insane on Youtube.

gamefly plz, i want my code

 

[matrix-cat]

TIME FOR *Steam's pre-load servers* TO LET HER RIP!

 

[Unstable]

Waiting on amazon to give me a key =/
As rising virgin here, this game is going to kick my ass isn't it?

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Wait a damn second. It installs to C:? That's my SSD

Can I use Steam Mover to get the preload to another drive when it's done?

 

[Rickenslacker]

All I'm going to say, and this won't seem important until it suddenly is, but (here in all caps to grab attention) GET USED TO PROPERLY USING BLADE MODE.

Don't stick to just auto-vertical and horizontal slashes, get comfy with aiming it.

Play it on Hard and savour it.

Spoiler

Alternatively, no shame in dropping it down to the lower difficulties where it's much easier. But ask yourself, "What would Kamiya do?"

You can just junction the folder before you download, you'll probably have to do it via command line I assume though, not sure if Steam Mover supports the preload folder (depotcache I think is the folder?). That said it'll install to your Steam drive so you'll need to use Steam Mover to junction the game to your other hard disk.

You are clearly meant to start playing on hard if you know what you are doing.

 

[InfiniteNine]

I'm weak! I guess I have 3 Rising keys to give away in the steam thread come release day though.

Me too, I'm ready for this game to Zandatsu the fucking shit out of my MGR cherry.

 

[Stop It]

Downloading the 23.7 GB, right into my veins.

Yikes.

Pre-loading too. As stated before hopefully that means the quality of the cut scenes will not be compromised. Can't wait to play it now really.

 

[BY2K]

Where's the pre-load folder?

 

[antitrop]

I beat Bayonetta twice (once on Normal and once on Hard), I think I can start MGR on Hard and stick with it. We shall see.

Hard is pretty much Normal for the game unless they tweaked it for the PC version.

program files/steam/depotcache

Hard is your only choice, it is your destiny, you must do it.

Hard would be fine for you. Hell, I'd say anyone that beat Bayonetta on normal should just go for hard in Revengance.

I didn't beat Bayonetta on hard and started rising on Hard.

Eh... I think I'll just wait to download on release day. My internet is decent enough for it not to be a huge hassle. Thank you though.

 

[Grief.exe]

Sounds like MGR will be a good game to get my feet wet in the genre.

I played Ninja Gaiden, DMC3, and 4 on release, but haven't played a similar game since.

 

[Squire]

Hope Gamefly gets those codes out early so we can preload!

Is their any chance of that happening? I just looked and it says it's ready at 10am on the 9th. I see Amazon says the same on their page. Is that referring to the game only? Or the game and when the codes are released?

Tempted to just get it off Steam and flip my GF code.
