There wasn't any listed in the game's properties menu. It may have updated without me noticing since I assume they were only a few mb each. I guess I'll find out later, if the achievements still don't work then it hasn't updated for me.

I also see Tengami and Ethan Meteor Hunter.
4 is about the price of a medium-to-large packet of chips/fries, fresh from the fryer.
See, told you you wouldn't regret it
Man, 710 meg Van Helsing update. Did they finally fix the coop?
You should try the "Master Cave" and finishing the game with only 2 items
From the previous thread:
If anyone is looking for a Zelda-lite game check out Ittle Dew. I finished it a few days ago and really enjoyed it. The games has a top-down perspective like 2D Zeldas but the main focus are the puzzles.
You start crashing on an island and you want to get out. After a simple tutorial you meet the shopkeeper who says you need to find an artifact so he can make you a raft. He also offers 3 different items, a fire sword, a portal and an ice wand but of course you need money to get them. This is when the game begins, after talking to him you enter the castle which works as the main dungeon. There you go solving puzzles to access other rooms looking for chests with coins to buy the items previously mentioned that allow you to go further into the castle.
Once you have enough coins you talk to the shopkeeper and ask for a specific item on display but buying stuff isn't fun, so he throws you into a dungeon which revolves around solving puzzles to with your newly acquired item and beating a boss at the end of it.
Along the way you can collect pieces of paper that work as heart containers and cards but those are useful only if you want to 100% the game. In the overworld there are a few caves containing a chest with any of these stuff, I believe can be solved with 1 item except for some. There is also an optional dungeon, "The Master Cave" which consists of 12 rooms that will surely test you skills. (This one has cards inside so if you want to find them all you need to finish it)
Puzzles consists of the classic: pushing blocks, litting torches, blowing up walls and blocks or killing everything to open doors. Of course you need to combine your item powers to solve some. For example the portal wand can create blocks to which you can teleport, to do that you need to throw a beam at a mirror and let yourself get hit by it. The ice wand not only lets you freeze enemies and put out fires but it can also create ice mirrors on the walls, so combining these powers makes for some nice puzzle solving.
Another good thing about the game is that it can be finished with all 3 items or any combination of 2, which makes going through the castle a little harder since you might need to enter some rooms another way. You will also find shortcuts in all dungeons and castle that have some harder puzzles in them.
It took me around 7-8 hours to 100% the game but it can be finished in less than 15 minutes (there is actually an achievement for doing it) if you know your way around it. In fact it was made to speedrun, adding an extra challenge.
On the other hand, it doesn't have any multilayered dungeon, the combat is very simple and enemies are very easy to kill therefore being behind Zelda games if that's what you like. But that is not what the game is aiming for. The art is nice but I found it a little lacking on the sound and music department.
To sum it all up, if you enjoy puzzles in Zelda, I fully recommend it
They better be really good fries.
Hm, I guess I didn't play long enough yet. I actually liked that the puzzles I saw so far were easy because that means my daughter could play it without getting too frustrated.You should try the "Master Cave" and finishing the game with only 2 items
Still, even if she bounces off of it, I'm enjoying the game immensely

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Basically you sit around and not use the millions of dollars you've made to port the game away from Java.
Notch is fuckin' dominating.

Strange two older games this week. Keep it up!
Reposting for new page if someone missed it.
Thanks so much! I've been wanting this for a while
We don't need that. Nobody needs that, enough people have suffered because of Romero.

If Daikatana goes up for £1 then it will almost certainly replace Bad Rats as the gift that keeps on giving.
It will be the end of an era.
Because money?
Well, I gotta say I'm impressed. I finally opened an Origin account to redeem the Humble Bundle stuff, and it already had other EA games that I'd signed up for in the past. And it lets me register keys from other EA games that I bought through Amazon.
Oh god, does this mean I'm gonna start using Origin now? D:

They were on sale last week too :\ (sorry)
Do you guys really want take the chance that some of the proceeds may go towards padding John Romero's pocket?
I haven't actually watched the interview, though, since Film4's player auto-adjusts quality based on detected bandwidth and it doesn't play nicely with my connection, but a fansite put up a ton of 1080p screenshots from the clip and I sifted through them, hoping to find some avatar material.
Edit: Does anybody know if it's possible to buy stuff from the iTunes store of another country using a VPN? HILN goes up on iTunes US on November 8th.

Not unless you play Battlefield or whatever else Origin exclusive game.
The client really is not that bad. I just don't like having to use a different one.

I've been following this for years. That franchise really was the Goldeneye version of the GCN/PS2/XBOX era. Such an amazingly fun and addicting series. Multiplayer map editors, wonky characters, vehicles, crazy weapons, hilarious campaign... It literally had everything. Oh and absolutely fantastic gunplay as well.

I totally forgot about it to be fair. Should I go regular or BTA?
BTA gets you the newest ones with the most mods.

Just tried the demo for Omikron. Very weird game and it must have been ambitious back then. There are a lot of characters on screen. Also i can set it to 1080p. How is that even possible for a 1999 game?
Picked up Limbo, thx man!
BTW, question for you, guys: do you know a good game to play without sound? I've been wanting to listen to some podcasts while playing!
there is an interface in dx for enumerating video modes.
if you do not code in any assumptions for aspect ratio or resolution it just works. You might end up with blurry hud, but still..
It'll work on 4k too, I bet.
And Square accidentally put Anachronox's picture up in the Blood Omen 2 registry app when that went live yesterday.

Any kind of Strategy game with just ambient music.
Civil, Hearthstone, Xcom, games of that nature.
Them's some bold words, friend. F5 F5 F5
