They did lie yes. And they did fuck up for not just me but plenty of people here on their downloads and preloads.

Sooooooo

And how many of those people are even half as angry as you?

Almost all of us had our preloads screwed up. We got annoyed, sorted it, moved on and started enjoying the game.

I was lied to, provided incorrect information, had my expectations set and dashed, then denied. Then just fixed it myself.

Whatever.

I'm moving on. Just know I was just expressing my experience, while all of you took it as an opportunity to troll, demean and more. Likely to make yourself feel better. I won't forgot those of you around Gaf.

Book closed.

Let's play this fucking game.

Hey guys, any tips to get the game to work? I'm trying to load it off of Steam on a PC. The little window pops up that says "Starting Grim Fandango Remastered" or whatever but then disappears but nothing happens. I'm looking at the processes running and it shows up for a little bit but disappears.

Don't worry, I'll vouch for them.

We won't forget you either champ.

Enjoy the game you didn't pay for (in the end) and more importantly, the theme.

They gave me $5 and I had a $20 card I bought for it. So I paid for it thanks. Can you just stop?

I tried to move on and you have to attack me again.

Book opened. Gloves off.

LOL. Keep on keeping on slugger.


Decided to pick this up today. After figuring out how to download it properly, it's been great. I put about 2 hours in. Never played the original before .

Dude, you said you were "maybe not" going to call to customer support to stop the refund Sony are giving you on the game. Hence that is what I mean in the end you did not pay for it unless you are actually going to stop the refund from coming through even though you sounded like you were not.

Byron Bluth said:
Yup. Gonna have to call and cancel my refund. Or maybe not. Will let it go and then rebuy. I'm not making anymore calls to that embarrassing excuse for customer service.

Maybe not as I am sick of calling them and it would be easier for it to refund and then buy it again. They took back the credit too like I previously posted so I would be paying full price.

Great, but you were so willing to call to get money back, you should be willing to stop that return since you are satisfied now.

So you just like to have the last word in an argument and hate when someone says anything further. Fine.

Book Closed.

Seems to be fine. All my downloads are still usable and his are fine too. I have access to all his games and he has mine.

Wait, isn't that game sharing and against Sony's terms and conditions? Or maybe not, since you can sign in to a PSN through controller?

Edit: my bad, book closed etc.

Nah...profile sharing is ok with Sony, you can only do it like this. Byron will just encounter a number of problems if his internet is out for over a few hours since he is sharing with a friend.

Thanks.

Do you have windows 10? maybe try running the game in compatibility mode (try this even if you have 8 or 7, just in case).

Do you have both an integrated and a dedicated GPU? maybe there's a conflict there.I believe you can assign which one to use.

Well I submitted for my refund.

Absolutely disgusted by Sony support for providing misinformation and for Double Fine that hasn't done anything to help as Sony fucks up the launch of this game.

I was so excited to play this game and now I am not at all. I am upset, sad and angry.

I don't want to revisit this wonderful game with this awful experience hanging over my head.

I'll buy it on Steam in the future and play it at some point.

Thanks Sony and Double Fine for ruining something I've waited for so long.

Damn, I just bought the game on my French PS4 but Vita version is not yet downloadable from my PS3. I can download it directly on my Vita but it's too slow by wi-fi to be over before I leave for work (the game is big). I'll have to wait tonight to play it :(. Why can't we download Vita games from our PS4?

Just wanted to throw out a recommendation here for people who are new and digging Grim Fandango to check out the adventure game series The Journey Down. It deals with a similar fantasy style of adventure game based on mythology around the world of the dead but instead of using Aztec beliefs as a basis uses ones rooted in African mythologies. It's not out as outright funny as Grim but it's still cool.

So, I've put some time in and am really enjoying it. I was a little worried the game wouldn't resonate with me as I never got into P&C adventure games back in the day, but the simple interface, fantastic music, and dialogue are living up to the hype.

Can't wait to find out what I have to do with all those balloon animals/literary giants.

I have never played this game, so I am considering getting it on PS4 I reckon I will enjoy it. £12 on UK store, how long would the game take to complete roughly?
