Very cool of you

I'd go for Riddick if it didn't have Tages.

But yeah, I'd like to see Blur come back to Steam.

 

[NaM]

I'd actually play Riddick but I think it would bring more happiness to some of the obsessive types in this thread so I'm not gonna enter.

Blur and Outrun are the ones I want. Cryostasis and Neverwinter Nights 2 are both good too, but I have them already. NWN2 especially can't come back soon enough; I want to gift it to some friends to play through Mask of the Betrayer.

I remember that back in the day nVidia was giving away copies of Cryostasis to activate on steam and I couldn't get any Anyway I don't think the game was going to be playable for me at the time.

I usually go with steam for convenience, but for old games and old DRM, nothing beats Gog. As it, the GOG version of Riddick is the only one DRM free.

ARGH which one do i choose ? I want both of them equally as much.

Has the Atari pub page on Steam always looked like this? http://store.steampowered.com/publisher/Atari
Just curious if something is changing soon or if that's just old stuff that's been sitting that way for a long time.

I remember getting Cryostatis from a bundle, but I can't remember which was it!

 

[toddhunter]

So real talk, is Ghostbusters any good? I don't care about collector appeal but I don't want to pass it up if it's a genuinely enjoyable game to play through.

The first level is a real joy. You have your buddies with you and you are walking around catching those ghosts and causing all sorts of destruction.

At the end of it, you are thinking, this is awesome, can't wait to see what is next!

Then you keep playing. The next level is as good as the first. This isn't a good thing though because you'll be thinking "didn't I just play this?" It remains solid, but you are pretty much doing the same thing over and over whilst the enemies wear different shoelaces.

I think it is worth the money, especially for fans. However if you find yourself getting bored bail out because there is nothing much else to see.

So tempted...

Guys, i won a Steam Machine!

Spoiler

i wish i could say that but it's not likely with half a million entries.

 

[erila]

I'm tempted by Enslaved - does it play OK with keyboard + mouse or is it a game that really needs a controller?

They started linking to their weird store page randomly one day.

 

[Slacker]

Is there a consensus around here on Forced? Looks like maybe a good one for game night once I get my Steam Machine™ in the living room.

I don't think he intends to play it.

It's $30 in USA? £35 in the UK lol. Wish they released a demo on PC, the demo on console was horrible. Sub 30fps.

25% off code on Gmg. 3 ran nicely so i trust it. Dem consoles are a little behind our pcs nowadays!

Wondering about this one too. Looks like it would be a good pick for a new co-op game.

 

[woo and indeed hoo]

Wasnt there Knytt Underground in some bundle before?

Two of them apparently:

Now that is kind . I won't enter as there are many Steam GAFers who will appreciate these games more than I but just thinking of someone being gifted one of these games who is really wishing to play it is giving me pleasure . Thank you.

I have the following coupons, if anyone needs them just PM.

 

[ashecitism]

man, so true:

RB: I gotta say I still don’t understand why it’s a reboot. I know the story was a bit shit in the first one, but there was still so much room to continue on from there, take the world that was built and keep building on it. But what did they mean? Reboot? There’s that bit in the trailer where it’s action and you’re thinking, ‘Shit, what is their plan? Are they making it into some kind of God-Of-War-in-firstperson beat ‘em up?’ Which is obviously the complete opposite of what we were going for in the first Mirror’s Edge.

The trailer is very almost-Battlefield – very colour-graded and cinematic, shall we say? The original was very stylised, fresh and different. One of my pet gripes is that every game today wants to look like it’s shot through Michael Bay’s sunglasses or JJ Abrams’ asshole. One of the things that defines Mirror’s Edge is that it wasn’t any of those things. It wasn’t set through a camera lens but someone’s eyes. When I saw the colour-grading on that trailer– I don’t know if you saw on Twitter, but someone posted to me a colour-corrected version and I RT’d that because, boom, they’d nailed it.

There are some really good guys I knew on that team, some from Grin, a couple from Starbreeze. They’re really good artists. But I don’t think Johannes is working on that any more, I’m not sure. So whether the art direction is going to stick with the original or be rebooted, I don’t know. But it’s one of those things where it’s like: they’re messing with my baby.

DET: I wonder if they’ll spare it the dirty camera lens effect.

RB: That’s a last-gen thing where they try and cover up limitations in the graphics with shitloads of post-processing, and you end up with a situation where someone’s got glaucoma. It’s just completely unrealistic and ruins what good art there is. Did you play Syndicate? From an art point of view, that just felt like instead of trying to work on the art they just smeared all this bloom and lens flare all over it to compensate. It just makes me cringe so hard when I see stuff like that.

Steam Forums already came up trumps.

Only one complaint that really ruined this game for me...

The game plays fine- I like it - I really do BUT why the hell does the entire driver portrait gallery look like the FBI's Al Qaeda most wanted line up?

Playing as a terrorist rally driver? SOLD!

 

[Cheddahz]

Does anyone know where I can get Deadly Premonition for cheaper than what it is selling for on Steam?

 

[schwupp]

has there been any information on region locks of cod ghost pre orders?
gifts of it are being sold as region free .. which sounds kind of shady having the history of cod region locks in mind.

Don't buy warband.

It will destroy your life and you will never be the same again.

Nice Giveway.

I was about to purchase these two games when I saw this. But now I need to sit and wait and see...

If they follow the pattern from the last couple of years it'll probably start on the 28th.

hmmm, thanks for the responses

I don't even see chronicles of riddick on the steam store?

It was pulled yonks ago, but GameStop is now selling Steam keys for the game. Ditto for Ghostbusters.

 

[Chronoja]

Has anyone had a problem with the Indie Gala Store recently? for whatever reason it appears my account there has been deleted. I couldn't log in, waited forever for the system to send me my password thinking I'd forgotten it, hours later nothing. I tested it by making a new account with the same email address thinking it would prevent me from doing so "email already in use" but no, it accepted the new account and now I have no idea where the old one went.

 

[Razorskin]

Butcher Bay has Xzibit doing voice acting, and it looks pretty good.

Holy crap you guys pushed it to the #1 selling game for PC on gamestop's site.

 

[MRORANGE]

If anyone needs a key for Ghostbusters or the Riddick game, people are willing to help out in this thread:



just got Ghostbusters.

 

[jshackles]

Ghostbusters page is no longer showing an "Add to cart" option, and the stuff about Steamworks and requiring Steam is also gone.

Nevermind, reloaded and it's back.

Riddick > Ghostbusters > Battlefield 4. Take note, EA.

Riddick still has TAGES?

It's still gone for me. Damn. I was planning on getting it when I get home. I don't like buying stuff while I'm on the work computer.
