I sort of want DarkSpore, but it has an always online singleplayer requirement, and I can't shake the feeling that it's going to be in the next wave of EA server closures :/
Are you attached to a game server or just logged into EA?

I don't know, I just know that there's no real 'single player' to it and it is an always online persistent world (like Diablo 3 is) game no matter how many people are playing.
I won't pay full price to support something like that, but am less picky about that sort of bullshit at £3.74 - although if it becomes unplayable in a few months its not even worth that.

listen to the mad man
Well, with all due respect, less than 1% of people play this game so you have no right to feel entitled to play the game you're buying today.

I don't think I understand what you're saying... because not a lot of people are playing it I shouldn't expect a spore themed diablo clone to work, even in singleplayer?

What he's saying is that you've devalued the IP by buying it on sale, and you can't expect EA to keep servers open for worthless franchises.

That was good.
That was
oh man
That was good.
Any game that requires you to always be online should be kept at a distance.
I don't even buy the limited activation DRM'd games either.
But... the next simcity... I'm not sure if I'm strong enough

Anyone - anyone - that has bought a game with the knowledge that it is limited activation or always online has no right to complain about those features fucking up their game. It's completely ridiculous to do so. And people have, including people on this very forum. I will never put my trust into a system where it takes a continuous stream of cash to run the game. ME3 MP is fun, but I'll live when they shut down the servers, because the entire game is not online.

By the way, I wasn't trying to dispute your GA impressions. I came here specifically to tell people to stay away from the expansion. I love Spore and think it's a really unfairly maligned game; the space stage is fantastic and deserves to be mentioned alongside classic 4X games like MOO2. I bought the physical collector's edition of the game, bought the creepy/cute parts pack, then bought both of those again when they made their way to Steam. I may have bought the expansion twice as well. But I ended up massively disappointed with the expansion, which was lacking pretty much everything I liked about the original game, and I felt it made the game significantly worse with its presence.
I realize it may have looked like I posted just to say you were wrong about everything, but that's not what I meant to do.
yup, been a while since I played my PSP ones
also really hoping for these to go on sale:

plus some other, older stuff.
a bunch of games I want compared to previous years of summer sales, paired with my lowest budget for one of these yet.. should be interesting

I will take Binary Domain if it goes on sale. That dudebro shooter looks fun and I liked the demo a lot.

I added some PSN funds today to cover an awesome set of games but I will bolster my Steam wallet at least another 30 before the sale.

I doubt Walking Dead will go on sale, it's still an ongoing series. Pretty cheap anyway and definitely worth the price IMO.

I want ArmA2:CO to go on sale, I'd like to jump on the GAF DayZ server.
Same. My wallet is prepared, and fearing.

Yes, if you liked the first two. The multiplayer modes in 3 are well worth 8 bucks.

What happened to Will Wright?
He left EA in 09 to found another company? Stupid Fun Club.

In the glorious future where Gabe is Supreme Overlord of Earth, everyone's social status will be determined by the size of their Steam collection. You are wise to think ahead of the times.

One could argue that Will Wright lost his magic.

Hey guys,
I just bought a wireless Xbox 360 controller for my PC, and I got a nice monetary gift for my birthday, so I'm looking to catch up on some games I missed because I always use a mouse/keyboard.
I have VVVVVV, Super Meat Boy, Cave Story+, and Just Cause 2 installed now, but with the Steam Summer Sale coming up I'm looking for some suggestions on games that play better or very comfortably with a controller. I have some other games as well such as Skyrim etc. but those work just as well with a mouse.

I already have Psychonauts too, should've mentioned. Thanks to Blablurn who generously gifted me the Humble Bundle for my b-day.
