How far into the game was that?

What puzzle? I played through the whole thing and while it was short I really enjoyed it.

(QUBE) Very close to the end, chapter 6 I think? It involves four boxes and was super frustrating, mainly because of the spotty physics. Then I read that the puzzle after is even worse, so I gave up. Bear in mind that on a previous puzzle I had to restart the game like 5-6 times because a block, thanks to the physics, always moved sideways when it wasn't supposed to and "fell out" of the puzzle with no way of resetting it.

The magnet puzzles, right? Hated them. Even if you can see what you are supposed to do, moving the blocks is a frustrating chore. They should have put the magnetic blocks on rails, or have them move in one block increments.

I'm having so much fun with Nexuiz.

A friend of mine will come back from England on 19th of August. For some unknownn reason Sleeping Dogs will be available here in Italy only on 31st (and not on the 17th). If i (try to) redeem the copy i buy before the date from which the game will be available here, will Steam burn my house or something else?
Thanks guys.

Anyone ?

 

[Yaska]

Anyone ?

If you mean redeem the game as in use your key on steam, then nothing happens. The game just is locked 'til it's released in your country. Unlocking the game through other means is another story though. And by unlocking I mean using certain ways to fake steam think you're in States or in another country so that you can play your purchased copy earlier.

 

[Sajjaja]

Maplestory is up on Steam guys.

BC1.

 

[Soi-Fong]

Can't find a difference? How about having double the factions?

One thing I really want to try out are the titans.

 

[sk3tch]

I'm having so much fun with Nexuiz.

Word. I don't get the hate. If you like Q3A - give it a try. Plays VERY similarly.

Stick £20 in your Steam wallet and sit on it until it's on sale, worked for me.
WARNING: May result in unexpected purchases.

 

[Semblance]

Binary Domain's the daily deal @ $10.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/203750/

 

[Giard]

Daily Deal - Binary Domain 75% off (9.99)

edit: ffffuuuu

 

[Shorty11857]

Binary Domain is 75% off today

Hero Academy is 5 euro, 8 euro for 2-pack, 15 euro for gold edition, 5 euro each for the other teams

 

[LiquidMetal14]

And we're off!

 

[Giard]

Hero Academy is 5 euro, 8 euro for 2-pack, 15 euro for gold edition, 5 euro each for the other teams

Isn't that extremely expensive compared to the iOS version?

BUY THIS GAME

 

[SteveWinwood]

Binary Domain kicks all kinds of ass.

 

[Shorty11857]

Isn't that extremely expensive compared to the iOS version?

Pretty sure it's f2p on IOS with teams costing 1.59 each, so yes it is!

Anyone got the prices of Hero Academy for US and UK?

 

[HoosTrax]

Any of the DLC for BD worth the money?

 

[schnarf]

Pretty sure it's f2p on IOS with teams costing 1.59 each, so yes it is!

At first I thought the same, but it seems that each of the teams on Steam come with the avatar icons as well, which if you were to buy a team and all of the related avatar icons for the iOS it would be $6 (1.99 for the team, .99 for the basic avatars, 2.99 for the elite avatars)

 

[Joe Molotov]

Pretty sure it's f2p on IOS with teams costing 1.59 each, so yes it is!

There's at least $20 worth of IAP items in the iOS version.

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hero-academy/id488156323?mt=8

 

[Boss Doggie]

Wow even as a DD it still couldn't beat Amazon's sales :lol

 

[Giard]

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hero-academy/id488156323?mt=8

But besides the teams, it's all cosmetic stuff. To get the game with all the teams, it would cost you $6 on iOS. On PC, it'll cost you $15.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Hero Academy price is kinda ridiculous, who gives a fuck about the avatars etc?

Also, just played Outrun 2 at a local arcade... Damn you Sega, the fuck you waiting for?!

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Binary Domain for $9.99? Hell of a deal.

 

[Mrbob]

Hero Academy, more like Overpriced Academy.

Time to wait for a 75 percent off sale. Sick of these ios games being overpriced on Steam. No wonder Robot Entertainment didn't talk cost. Taking advantage of TF2 players. Sad face time.

Thanks.
It means that i have to wait until the end of the month. Such a shame.

 

[PixelHorror]

Indeed! Great game! It felt like an old PS2/Dreamcast game with better graphics and even more awesome gameplay.

Big booo

 

[zephervack]

Has BD ever been cheaper somewhere else?

 

[Danneee]

I still ant play my copy of BD because the game can't recognize my laptops discrete gpu. Damn Optimus and non working drivers

 

[schnarf]

I am crazy to be considering buying Binary Domain on steam? I already beat it on PS3...and had a blast with it, so replaying it would be fun.
How is the multiplayer?

 

[vocab]

How is the multiplayer?

Dead/awful.

Thanks for posting this. I just ordered a laptop with Optimus, I guess I won't buy Binary Domain for a while.

I was going to go with the new Radeon card, but it seems that Enduro has even more problems.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Has BD ever been cheaper somewhere else?

Cheapest so far. Amazon had it for $10 bucks for one day. It's cheaper than Steam Summer Sales when it was at 66% off.

 

[Petrie]

FEAR 3 is $3 on GMG today with code PCGMR-GREEN-SUMMR. Redeems on Steam.


Never played much of any of them myself.

When I played it mid-July, the multiplayer was pretty dead. May be a little more active now with the DD.

 

[spindoctor]

Don't buy Binary Domain for the multiplayer, it's as dead as can be.

I added Hero Academy to my cart and then realized that it has tons of DLC already. Now I don't know what to do :|

If it's like the IOS version you should be fine with the $5 version

 

[Glass Rebel]

I wonder whether I can use the teams I bought on iPhone without any additional charges...

 

[kennah]

Yep. You can even continue games on either platform! It's all tied to the same account.

It's the weekend and I feel generous, anyone interest in an Alan Wake franchise bundle?

[coopolon]

Is Fear 3 any good single player? As in is it worth playing? I greatly enjoyed both Fear 1 and 2, although didn't like the expansion packs to Fear 1 as much.
