Good morning SteamGAF :3
There can't be spoilers in Deus Ex: HR, right? And I mean, I'm pretty good at avoiding spoilers on forums etc... don't worry, I'll play Portal 2 very soon! I just want to get some other games out of the way first~ ♥

As far as I'm aware (and I'm almost certain) you almost definitely will not run into any spoilers for Portal 2 in Deus Ex but the problem is that you may run into Portal 2 spoilers on this forum or others before you manage to complete it. The main problem is that the spoilers for it aren't necessarily confined to threads regarding Portal. Even in the Summer Sale thread I recall somebody posting spoilers about the game and it was only fortunate that you weren't around to witness them. If anything it's due to how easily recognisable and memorable various aspects of the game are and because it's been played so much, the chance of running into Portal 2 spoilers is much higher than running into Deus Ex spoilers.
Although, Portal 2 is really short anyway. I would really have to advise playing that first as it won't take a significant amount of time to thoroughly complete and it will alleviate the potential stress of having to avoid spoilers (and of course remove the possibility of spoilers too).

That's a good site to keep book marked as its kept up-to-date.

You're pretty much pinpoint with what you say, and I should really take your advice... but the problem here is that I'm really not in the mood for Portal right now
Maybe tomorrow!

Anyone can gift me Jade Empire? No more money on my steam wallet and can't charge it in time.

Yeah, whenever I turn fullscreen on for a trailer, it plays behind the Steam window on my desktop, and really choppy. It has been like this for months.
Shiiiit. Finished watching every show I wanted. Can't avoid playing my games anymore :/
Btw someone talk me out of Buying Guild Wars 2. I've already pre-ordered Darksiders 2 and Sleeping Dogs. Not to mention Torchlight 2 is still set for a summer release which could be soon.
Fuck not to mention Sound Shapes =/

Same.
Short videos don't help anymore. The only trap inside youtube is when you start searching for girls dancing :/
But thanks to my shitty internet and having to buffer every few seconds, the spell gets broken easily.

Just noticed Dark Souls is now in the top 10 top sellers list. Nice

Guys, I might have to chill with Portal 2 for a day... I was just about to start it up when I realized I hadn't even downloaded it yet, and it's frikkin 11gb. I'll be able to start downloads tomorrow morning, at best.
edit: And now that I'm playing Deus Ex: HR for the first time, I have to install Direct X again! Why do you have to do this every single game?!
The amount of disappointments... it'll be delicious.

Man July is almost over and still no Torchlight II.
fluffydelusions
Member
Hope not. The game itself is REALLY good. The only downfall will be either GFWL or if it's poorly optimized.
People are still playing the Beta yes? I need some Torchlight II in my veins!
There it is.

Member
iirc, the explanation was that most of the games use customized directx assets, which require separate installation. The extensions aren't found in the general packets, thus required to be installed for game to run.
The beta ended about two months ago.

Well, as you've said you weren't really in the mood to play it so perhaps it's for the best. I'm sure you can go one more day (due to NeoGAF going down in awhile anyway) without being spoiled on Portal.
I don't think everybody who's buying it will have hyped it up quite as much as you did (and then made it worse by playing with a significant injury)
. I'm sure most people will enjoy it (who are new to the game that is), especially if they've not played Demon's Souls and are simply playing it based on the positive reception it has received.And yep, you do. It's Valve's way of dissuading you from playing games and to simply buy them for the icons (and list) instead.
Joking of course

But I thought that locked 30fps thing was debunked. Devs said they were playing it at 60fps and it played great?
The reason I heard was that apparently Microsoft have said the only officially supported way to check the installed version of DirectX is to run the installer.
Sucks even more for mac gamers as ETA is "sometime after windows release". So basically is sometime after sometime during the summer.

Saw this on reddit. That steam sale aftermatch
I was thinking pretty much the same thing right before the sale, but now I'm guessing I'll have no trouble waiting until the Winter sale to get it
I thought I read something about mid-september. Like the very last week of summer.
I'll be very pleased if this is true. I'm very worried about how it will turn out on PC because I've not had a chance to play it on console yet.

There is no way I'll be able to wait that long.

I preordered and I hope it comes soon cause GW2 comes out August 25th and that will get all my playtime.

It's a fantastic game. I never got a chance to finish it so I'm hoping it turns out good.

While playing Deus Ex: HR... CPU celcius @75, GPU celcius @80... should I be worried now ._.? I don't like the way my fans sounds when I play games on PC.

So you know...I don't think everybody who's buying it will have hyped it up quite as much as you did (and then made it worse by playing with a significant injury)
Although you don't talk to me anymore, I'll answer you anyway. I got the exact same setup. The CPU is way too hot. The GPU could be a bit cooler but it's still fine.
Midweek Madness is the X series 75% off: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/6330
Daily Deal is DIRT 2 for 75% off: http://store.steampowered.com/app/12840/
Good thing I posted them at least, rather than not saying what they are and going "MAN THESE SUCK"
