I don't see it as "loli" as much as "hideous." The art style just looks darn ugly to me. that being said, I actually had fun with Gundemonium Recollection on PS3. The screen is so covered with bullets that you probably won't notice the art either way.

Oh jesus, I picked the wrong time of night to start playing Penumbra Overture. Right now I'm creeping through a dark building with nothing but a glowstick and apparently there might be a nest of giant spiders nearby.

I don't like this one bit.

Sweet game, though. It's a little dated compared to Amnesia, but it shares a lot of it's qualities and it's scary as hell.

Played some of this and liked it (not Amnesia-liked, mind you, but liked), although I stopped for whatever reason and haven't been back. I got all the Penumbras now and will finally hammer through them when it's closer to Halloween. I look forward to flying out of my seat once again.

Can't load any store pages now. I can look at the sales, and search for products, but if I click any links the window just goes empty and the little loading ticker at the top right constantly goes around and around.

Already deleted ClientRegistry.blob.

I got a Steam update and it appears to have nuked my game categories. I just have one long list of everything now D:
Click to expand...
I'm going to lose my shit if this happens to me. My categories include such classics as 'Mundane Sim', 'Really Mundane Sim', 'Not Even Playing In Event Of Apocalypse' and 'Games With Fucking Horses In'. I don't want to have to do them all over again.

Hah, is that a big category?

I have never seen the need to divide my games up into categories. 119 titles and counting, but the organizing of the categories is so slow and cumbersome, I'd rather not do it. At some point it is going to be quicker to search for the game you want to play in the STORE tab, find it and press the PLAY button on the store page.

Just contains 'Secret Of The Magic Crystal' and 'World Of Zoo' at the moment. No idea how I acquired either game although I remember antagonistically gifting a couple of copies of the Magic Crystal one to others.

To be honest, I have so many different categories that I forget what is where and just use the grid view instead. Still, I'd be peeved to lose them.

The thing is, it look that Library is nowhere in sight. I have the same problem for Torchlight obviously.

The closer I get is this:

Capture%20d%E2%80%99%C3%A9cran%202011-09-29%20%C3%A0%2023.57.21.png


Steam folder is nowhere to be found.

Another try:

Capture%20d%E2%80%99%C3%A9cran%202011-09-29%20%C3%A0%2023.58.24.png


I have no idea where is Steam folder and Spolight is clueless

You could try pressing shift+cmd+g in a finder window and type in:

or showing all hidden files like this and see if you can find it then.

probably a weird one but is MotionJoy working for anyone else? Whenever I go into it, the screen just says "500 Internal Server Error". It's weird cause it shouldn't really have anything to do with the internet other than the ads.

Nothing worked.

I tried Daisy Disk. It work, as expected. I worked until here:

Capture%20d%E2%80%99%C3%A9cran%202011-09-30%20%C3%A0%2001.54.47.png


WTF why can't I reveal ?

I revealed hidden files. Here it IS. Finally.

So I went to download Alpha Protocol today after buying it last week.

When I check my games library there is a whole bunch of EA games ready to install.

All the Crysis games, Sims 3, both Mass Effects, 3 MOH games, 2 BF games, Warhammer, C&C, Need4Speed....and on. Must be about 50 or so.

Is this real life?

Are the first two dungeon siege games any good?
Paying 2.50$ extra for them sounds tempting.

The second one was pretty fun gameplay wise but I don't know how much the graphics have aged. Can't really remember how it looked.

Also curious about Dungeon Siege 3. Heard this one wasn't quite as buggy as most Obsidian stuff.. Played the demo for a bit, but given that it's Obsidian, I doubt what little I played is representative of the whole.

Any good?

Dungeon Siege 3 is hella fun in co-op. My friend and I had minimal experience with that style of RPG and once we got accustomed to how our characters worked we had a great time. Definitely going to do another run when two more of our friends pick it up down the road.

-The game definitely doesn't over stay it's welcome, but I still felt satisfied when it was over.
-The bosses are fucking fantastic.
-The art really starts to come out after the first couple hours and it looks fantastic at times.
-Controls are great on the controller, I had no interest in using the mouse.
-The story started kinda meh and it never reached proper levels of Obsidian goodness, but there are some pretty amusing character bits.

I don't know how anyone can play dungeon crawlers in single player. It's amazing how they go from redundant and terribly boring to awesome when you have a friend to play with.

Yeah, I got real bored in Torchlight because I was all alone so I'm thrilled Torchlight 2 remedies that.

What's the word on Blood Bowl Legendary Edition?

I remember playing the board game like 15 years ago and having a great time. I have a friend that is interested in the game too, but I don't know how online will work. Can you save online games and resume at a later time? How's single player?

Didn't Dungeon Siege III come out 6 months ago? Is it that bad?

(Tried out the demo, wasn't impressed)

Its the very definition of a mediocre game. Solid controls, gameplay, etc, but nothing exceedingly remember-able either.

So I played the demo of Civ V but man it just throws you into it, no tutorial or anything. I think I could like the game if I knew what I was doing. Also the Narrator... Liam Neeson?
