Doesn't look that bad, has co-op aswell which is usually a plus.

Local co-op only, which is a bit curious sounding. I'll definitely be expecting an RPS "impressions" article on this.

 

[Dascu]

Oh wow, that looks awesome. Anyone have impressions?

I think Stumpokapow played it, with so-so impressions.

 

[BobJustBob]

There's a quick look. Doesn't come off too well.

 

[Stallion Free]

Yeah, I tried the demo for Scary Girl on my PStriple and I lost interest pretty quickly. I might pick it up down the road just for the art.

 

[Vastag]

Anyone has tried the daily (Sol: Exodus)? I could play a nice space sim.

 

[jaundicejuice]

I'll pick up Scary Girl when I get home from work.

I picked up Hack Slash Loot the other day, guess I couldn't wait for Legend of Grimrock to come out and get my dungeon crawl on. I've only played it for about half an hour and damned near have as many characters as I have minutes in the game. First achievement I got was for dying in under 20 turns, it's actually pretty brutal and I'm not sure if I like it or not...but like every other Rogue-like I've ever tried to play, I'll keep on playing it (until I rage uninstall it). If you've got a bit of a masochistic streak in you, you love Rogue-likes and/or dungeon crawlers, then you should probably check it out. It's less than 5$ right now.

 

[Zimbardo]

i wish Steam would have/start a spring sale. i would assume that they will since they had a fall sale.

 

[xenoflux2113]

SOL: Exodus is the daily deal at 50% off.

Will this satisfy that space flight combat craving?

 

[Stumpokapow]

Played maybe half an hour on XBLA. The presentation is really nice. The 2.5D level style is neat. It's supposedly based off an existing IP. There seems to be a pretty deep combat and movement system. I found the controls a little sloppy.

I know it's heavily combat focused. And mission based. Theres a quick look of it too.

 

[Blizzard]

There's also a demo, sweet.

I'm curious how they made an indie game that is "Unreal-powered" and yet a space simulator. As far as I'm aware, there are major problems with doing that with UDK unless you strictly limit area sizes or use other tricks...maybe they used an older Unreal version or something.

 

[xenoflux2113]

Might grab it then, 4.99 isn't bad and along with racing the space combat genre is severely lacking in my list of games (none).

There's also a demo, sweet.

Or I guess I'll try the demo when I get home tonight.

 

[Fair Trial]

PM me for a lucid key.

edit: gone

 

[Imp the Dimp]

I need a discount on The Witcher 2 badly before the EE is released.

Where are people getting these Lucid keys?

Read the thread. It's been posted multiple times.

Are they even back from the company vacation outing yet?

 

[cicero]

To quote myself from further up on this page, you can get 2 Lucid keys this way:

This worked for me just now. You send the message through your reddit account, which I think needs to be older than a day.

http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/rxemw/hi_reddit_its_time_for_steam_code_hunt_i_just/

Just send a message to http://www.reddit.com/user/YeaBoingCodes/ and the bot will send you TWO Steam Keys.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Oh, I don't have reddit (I refuse to make one)

Hmm... anyone willing to give?

EDIT: Welp, decided to give in and made one... but still have to wait for a day?

 

[Leon Belmont]

Oh, I don't have reddit (I refuse to make one)

I've sent a message in order to get Two Lucid keys but I haven't received them yet, If (one day) I receive them I can spare one with you

Ah okay, thanks!

I think your account needs to be at leat 24 hours old; yesterday i didn't get any keys, today the bot answerd me after 7 seconds.

Mmm I sent the message after I registered my account, it was 1 day ago! So I think that maybe today will receive the keys.... I hope so!

So I am getting into PC gaming, lured in by 1080p 60fps with AA plus point and click games.

I had this image in my mind of going to Steam and finding tons of almost new games for a tenner, but so far everything I've looked (eg Skyrim, MW3, Fallout NV, Ridge Racer Unbounded etc.) at is £29.99 or something like that. So I take it I have to stay put and wait for sales and promotions?

Second noob question, Steam is really the only DD service I would trust to have staying power. Can I buy games from Origin and GOG, but somehow have the license stored in Steam?

[Freeza Under The Shower]

so I just learned that Prototype 2 comes out this month. Looks like it's getting the "not CoD" advertising treatment, despite some advertising a year ago or so.

It's also nowhere to be seen on Steam. Is this normal for Activision, or..?

 

[Vastag]

Basically this, you can also buy steam activable games on other stores, here is a list: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7480-WUSF-3601

If you can't wait for a sale, you can always find Steamworks deals on other sites like amazon/gmg. The games you listed are all Steamworks, and have to be registered to a Steam account.

PC version has been delayed to 24 july.

I'm interested in the game too. :/

Always check for Daily/Weekly sales and save up money for the big summer/winter ones. You will definitely get new-ish games for a tenner then. The normal prices on Steam are in line with retail, but on sale, dear god.

Just wait, in a few months you'll have more games than you can play in a lifetime.

Games on this list

https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7480-wusf-3601

can be activated on Steam, no matter where you bought them from (also known as "Steamworks", even though not entirely correct).

Cool, so I can buy retail games on the cheap and register them too as long as they are on the list.

And do I get this right, I can buy Amazon DD too but register via Steam? Awesome if so

 

[drizzle]

You'll need to re-send the message.

Your profile has to say "redditor for 1 day" and THEN you can send a PM to the bot.

Prototype 2 PC isn't coming out for a while.

I finally snagged one! Thank you.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Two Lucid keys. Already got Lucid. Quote to reveal. Didn't know I had to wait a day after registration. Sent another message and the bot responded with 2 keys within seconds. Reply if you claim them.

 

[Lord British]

Dang, both gone. I'm slow.

 

[No clue whatsoever]

Reply if you claim them.

Used the first code, thanks!

Curse you. Curse you both.

 

[Javaman]

God the key features for Pat and Mat sound like a pitch to investors.

>World-wide known brand. (Pat and Mat are well known in many countries all over the world. Game doesn’t just “use” the name – it really simulates the popular TV series on your PC.)

>Humor for everyone. (Funny animations, funny situations, funny actions all the time.)

Who writes this shit? LOL

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

Be good and reply if you get the code.

 

[Madrugador]

I took it. Thanks a lot!

YW, the bot finally replied.

I'd love it! Played the demo and liked it, challenging puzzles.

I'd love it!

OK, I'll send in a minute.
