Edit: Beat!

hey guys if i buy gta 4 on amazon.com can i then activate it on steam instead of having to download it through amazon.com?

Nope.

 

[Gibbo]

So guys, any good adventure games to recommend over this New Year weekend? Preferably an indiana jones like aventure with epic soundtrack, etc

I just bought the Lucas arts adventure pack and the Monkey Island remakes. Didn't really like the ME ones though- way too much talking involved

 

[Relix]

Erm, LordRelix >_>

EDIT: How much is it? Like 2 -4 bucks right?

 

[JDS 1977]

I tried the demo for GREED thinking it had to be better than Space Siege ( which I got for like 3$ at some point retail) , but it seemed really boring and you could only try out one character anyway. I like looking for the sub 5$ games looking for hidden gems but I don't think this one qualifies.

$1

Accept my friend request, and I'll gift it to you.

Edit: Gifted.

Wait until Sunday before you buy any individual game that isn't part of a daily deal.

 

[Relix]

Oh I thought it was more expensive =O. Well, what can I say... thanks a lot =). GAF is so awesome :lol

 

[kai3345]

I've been staring at that indie heavy hitters pack for the past two weeks.

I can't decide D:

 

[speculawyer]

Darksiders has been an awesome purchase from this sale. Let's hope for something awesome tomorrow!

Sounds like a death bed regret you could wisely avert.

 

[shintoki]

But why?
Anyway, sorry to bother you =P

No, nothing is wrong with it. It's just me. When I see the same thing twice, I skip over it and lose interest.

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Weird, I own GTA IV and it let me purchase GTA IV Complete...Did I miss something?

 

[Parham]

Valve fixed the issue earlier today.

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Valve fixed the issue earlier today.

Ah ok, awesome. Definitely missed that one...

 

[Felix Lighter]

Never mind.

 

[speculawyer]

Has Trackmania ever been a daily deal?

 

[Volcynika]

Has Trackmania ever been a daily deal?

Nope.

 

[Bii]

Crapshoot. I already have GTAIV but not the episodic contents. :/

 

[SolarPowered]

5GB is fine.

For all of the DLC and the regular game?

Somehow I doubt that...

It's because Oblivion only has Patrick Stewart, Sean Bean and two voice actors, and they just have them say every single word in the script and mix and match depending on the conversation.

This would be funny if my question were answered by now.

Edit:
Apparently all of the DLC and the regular game somehow amount to five gigs. I don't know what kind of voodoo was used for that, but I'm okay with it as long as I have all of my stuff.

 

[speculawyer]

Nope.

Horsecrap.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

Has Trackmania ever been a daily deal?

Nope.

Will it ever be a daily deal? I can't remember ever seeing it on sale. I had a ton of fun with the free one.

 

[smurfx]

anybody have an extra copy of gta 4 they want to gift me? i'll gift you back a 5 dollar game. i also have half life 2 to gift.

 

[Volcynika]

Horsecrap.

I'm talking about this sale, so you can take your horsecrap back.

Do you have Shatter or Toki Tori yet?

 

[speculawyer]

I was talking about it in general not to your response. They need to throw it on sale!

 

[Volcynika]

Then specify next time!

 

[The Technomancer]

Hm, Oblivion is tempting, but I didn't particularly enjoy Morrowind (what ten hours I played of it), and I'm currently really digging The Witcher, so....pass.
Europa Unversalis looks interesting though, and at a good price.

 

[speculawyer]

Then specify next time!

lol True. Just tryin' to get you fired up too.

 

[Rufus]

For all of the DLC and the regular game?

Yes. It really could be the relative lack of lots and lots of unique dialogue (and blurry textures, maybe).

Keep in mind there's two different editions, the GOTY and the GOTY Deluxe, which has even more DLC in it, although I don't know how big the latter is. (Yes, I know it's stupid.)

 

[ismaboof]

It was a daily deal last Christmas. I got it for $20.

 

[Volcynika]

lol True. Just tryin' to get you fired up too.

Though it has been a weekend deal before. I'm not sure about the daily deals (they only started that last year), I'd have to look back.

 

[Ryu]

Special thanks to Dambrosi for all the help with procuring a copy of Singularity from the UK for 15. Thank you very much for the help!

Also special thanks for those of you who sent friend requests to help out, really appreciate the offers!

 

[speculawyer]

It's all good. Thanks though. Is there really a lot of people on the paid version? Seems like it'd be easier to just stick with the free one.

 

[x3sphere]

Anyone from the UK willing to gift Singularity? I'll Paypal you $16.

Bloody hell, looks like it's my night to give back to the GAF community.

Gimme yer steamID, I'll hook ya up.

To bad GTA 4 is STILL horribly optimised and still runs like crap after my recent computer rebuild. My specs are:

Intel Core I7 950 3.0 GHZ
ATI Radeon 5850
OCZ 4 GB PC 1600 RAM
Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

Any guides to run this game smoothly with the graphic options turned up? There is no reason with my specs I should be getting bad performance.

 

[Nabs]

having fun messing around with greed corp. can't wait to play some friends (hoping a few got em)

 

[Datwheezy]

I keep looking at the the Indie Fright Pack. What is everyone's opinion on The Void and The Path? I've heard everything from "must play art games" to "absolute garbage". The concepts of the games sound cool, but I fear the execution is going to be frustrating or buggy (something something Eastern European developers)

I know, I know it's only $5, but as a college student, $5 is a lot to spend on stuff I'll never play, and if all the other small indie games in my library are any indication, I doubt I'll have time to play much of the other 3 games to begin with :lol

Yes, you can.

 

[NameIess]

Great thread! I picked up Kane & lynch 2 for a steal and the game is not bad at all.
I really like the gritty style and story line of the game good stuff for a phenomenal price...

 

[Dambrosi]

Thanks, really appreciated

Errr...

Gimme yer steamID, I'll hook ya up.

:lol

 

[lordfroakie]

Bought VVVVV, Penumba pack. Can I gift a game that I already bought?

 

[Big B]

for anyone who got the Indie Beat pack, how is Turba?

EDIT: nevermind, didn't see the demo!

 

[Parham]

Bought VVVVV, Penumba pack. Can I gift a game that I already bought?

No, not from the Penumbra pack.

You cant run GTA4 at max settings. For reference, most of the slider settings for the console version of GTA4 are in the teens. So is the framerate.

 

[sn00zer]

Got 2 hours into Darksiders..... wtf....this game is like Zelda....but its not boring.... so far combat is fun (big plus) and its opening up (big plus) oh and it runs damn near 60 fps all the time on my "middle-line" comp (8800 2GB RAM 2.66 Core Duo) at 1680*1050 (mega plus)
