If it had achievements I would buy. I doubt it has online multiplayer too.
From what I can tell, it's based on the iPad version, so it's not that bad.

I'm always looking for trading sims to buy for my Anno-crazy girlfriend... but nothing seems to live up to Anno's high standards for graphics, interface, and simple but enjoyable gameplay. After checking a few threads and a video review, PR3 seems to follow that trend :/

I think certain gamers can get a lot of fun out of Hell Yeah but it's probably best played in small doses. It's an old school style of game, and I think people forget what that really means. It means you will be brutally punished for your mistakes.

My Hell Yeah! review is sitting in editing somewhere but I'll go ahead and say it.
Not a good game, not challenging either.
Fun to look at and listen to though, pretty much my entire play-through relied on the "what will I see next" appeal.
Thanks to everyone who started talking about the game again all of a sudden, somehow it gave me the kick I needed to write the review.
Now to wait for that similar kick so I can write a Cargo Commander review.

Yeah, it's a good game from what I hear so you probably wouldn't.
So when does Metro 2033 get good?
I just finished level 3 and so far the combat has been completely unsatisfying (bad feeling guns, stupid enemy AI), its 100% linear and full of scripted scenes that aren't very well done at all (for example the level where I have to follow the Bourbon guy, I would run ahead of him and hit invisible walls)

All those things are present for the rest of the game. If you can't look past it due to the stellar atmosphere, then just move on from the game and don't sweat it. The atmosphere was pretty much the only thing that got me to the end.

Yeah, I really enjoyed the underground living atmosphere . . . like the flashback stuff from the Terminator movie. But ultimately, I got bored and bailed on the game.

Even if THQ went bankrupt, I'm pretty certain that someone would buy the project and make sure it gets to market. The CoH games are among the highest rated games on Steam and X-Com seems to show that strategy games will still sell. So that game will hit the market one way or another.
Exactly. It will get sold to some other publisher if THQ can't put it out (along with South Park).
Although it would be very interesting if EA picked it up.
Bahh...they'll turn it into f2p for sure.

what was so bad about tomb raider angel of darkness?
That would be a strange fit since they already have C&C and that is going nowhere. I could see 2K picking it up.
No online multiplayer.
Why would they do this...? I would've bought it in an instant.

I'm sure reviews here cover it in detail: http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-2/lara-croft-tomb-raider-the-angel-of-darkness
I was confused to see a 100 from a critic since the average was 52.
And then I read who it was from and it made sense.

Wii version of Monopoly is the best anyway, because you can shake the wiimote to pretend you're shaking the dice.

Sorry for the OT, I know some of ya got Hard Reset (thanks for the recommendation!), was wondering if anyone knew the AA flag for Nvidia Inspector to force MSAA/SGSSAA? Thanks!
How does Metro have bad gunplay? Because the guns have recoil?
The only thing Metro truly suffered from was bad pacing. The game really lags around the middle. Great game otherwise.
Dammit, Joe! You just made me spend some of my Winter Sale money. Just a day after I just bought Far Cry 3 Deluxe also.
There isn't one, but the game itself supports FSAA, which is better than nothing.

Tomb Raider for $31.50 from GMG is tempting...

From what I can tell, none of the current publishers seem interested in buying THQ out because of their debt load. Activision would be the only one I could see doing it since they need new IP but I think they are waiting like everyone else. They are all like vultures watching from afar waiting for THQ to die. Then they'll swoop in and pick at the carcass.

Ah too bad, would've been the icing on the cake! Thanks!
It's difficult, but getting the controls is super rewarding. If you like things handed to you then you won't enjoy it.
Awful deal, the prices for them games are insane, all in the £30/£50 region. That won't fly over here.
£30 would be an amazing price, the best in the business... if you were living in zone.

Where's the community stuff in the W8 skin?
Amazon's Digital Deals of the Week are up. Everything's got a STEAM key, except for Billy Hatcher.
Seems like the way to go for Jet Set Radio if you even have a passing interest in any of the other games. Keep in mind purchasing any of these will get you a $5 credit towards the Editors' Choice 2012 games that will activate in January.
Lifted from CAG.

$30 is even better!
For those who missed Torchlight 2 during the Autumn Sale, it's currently half off over at GameStop/Impulse.
If you're not calling it one of the best arcade games in years, I'm preemptively rejecting your opinion as invalid.
Right. No one wants to buy THQ, but their games/IPs/licensing deals are actually worth something. So when THQ declares bankruptcy, the court appoints someone to sell off all those things in order to make money to pay back the creditors. Whose going to want to buy them? Other major publishers.
Of course, you might be concerned what other major publishers will do once they've bought them.

The FSAA runs and looks awful. It hardly does anything for the aliasing. The FXAA is honestly an improvement, which is saying something because we all know the downsides to FXAA.
Bottom right. It's a big reason why I dont use that skin. just odd placement.

Last time they did this, the dreamcast pack didn't register steam. Are you sure it does now?
I personally didn't purchase it, but it says on the Amazon page that it does, and no one on CAG has complained yet.
Bought it about 20 minutes ago, had individual Steam keys for all the games. Registered fine and all.
Apparently I already own dustforce....huh. I don't like platformers.

That you already own it is your subconscious trying to tell you that you should play better games.

How is that sega genesis pack going to show up in my steam list?
