if there was a well-designed single-player shooter based on REIGN OF FIRE i would be there with bells on

 

[SteveWinwood]

Are you my dad Stump?

 

[xenoflux2113]

Now I will forever associate Stump with Dave Grohl.

You aren't the only one. I would be very excited to play this too.

Well, 2/3 ain't bad, right?

(on the bright side, the game scored better than the movie on Metacritic )

I think Skyrim's the closest we'll get Who needs guns when you can have double lightning??

Who needs dragons when we can have Macho Man?

 

[morningbus]

Maybe when the next Fallout comes out someone will mod in Skyrim's dragons. Then we're basically halfway there.

 

[mrgone]

Who needs dragons when we can have Macho Man?

I just looked that up, and I'm going to have some savage nightmares tonight.

(Best Macho Man mod since the L4D sound pack)

Anyone else been having Steam CSS issues lately? Both in the client and from the website, every few page loads will just load without CSS (white background, black test, blue underlined links, no site design). I've tried different computers too.

My girlfriend thinks this guy is the closest match from anyone so far and described seeing it as "freaky" and "scary". His Wikipedia photo looks like me, only more unkempt, 25 years-ish older, and with yellower teeth hahaha. I get Dave Grohl IRL.

 

[CornBurrito]

I'd like to thank whoever recommended Risen for my RPG fix.

I've only played the demo, but so far I like the exploration a lot. I also enjoy the combat a lot, though handling more than one enemy seems suicidal at least a first.

I also tried the Divinity II demo. Combat could be a bit more exciting. Not nearly as bad as Dragon Age, but still not anything to write home about. Not going to buy that one anytime soon.

 

[Aselith]

Holy shit! Have you guys played this game? It is fucking awesome if you like stuff like Terraria and it's a student project so it's free.

Just heard Paul Barnett talking about it on the Bombcast and it really is awesome.

 

[Boss Doggie]

So still no news whether MNC will get neat stuff when playing SMNC?

And yay got my beta key.

 

[inky]

Holy shit! Have you guys played this game?

Yes! there was this thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=437292
I enjoyed it back then. Maybe I'll re-download it.

Happens to me all the freaking time. I tried to delete the Steam cache on my computer, and it worked for a bit, but then the problem came back.

Well, that was nice- I bought Shogun 2 from Amazon US before Christmas for $7.49, got a $5 store voucher and just used it to get Alice for $2.49. Forget Origin and EA's bullshit, Amazon is a much more serious and credible competitor to Steam.

Can you buy digital games from amazon.com from the UK?

 

[Tambini]

Can you buy digital games from amazon.com from the UK?

Yes, if you use an American address

 

[Gareth Bale]

Yes, if you use an American address

So do I just change my billing address to some random US address then when I come to pay?

 

[Sportbilly]

What Tambini said- I just used Google's HQ address to create a new account. You might get charged an extra fee for using your debit/ credit card abroad, but it's nominal.

So I need to set up a new address and then set up an Amazon.com account then?

 

[Sportbilly]

Yep, probably best not to use an existing UK account, it might get a bit confusing.

 

[Tambini]

I use Google's address, works fine.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Ok, thanks for the answers guys

 

[Stallion Free]

I use Google's address, works fine.

Sniper: Ghost Warrior is the Steam Daily @ 66% off ($6.79). Any impressions?

My brother wants this. Anybody happen to have a coupon for this lying around?

 

[Baha]

City Interactive coupons work for this and I have one but I'm still contemplating on whether to buy it or not (25% off coupon so $5.09).

Hmm, I also have one of those vouchers... Does Alice activate on Steam?

It has incredibly gratifying sniping mechanics mixed in with terrible shooting mechanics for every other type of gun.

No.

 

[RoadHazard]

No.

Damn.

 

[SteveWinwood]

Sniper is fun when you're sniping. Hilarious semi buggy fun when you're just sneaking around. Complete and utter terrible shit when they force you to use a machine gun.

Sadly there are too much of those machine gun parts aka any.

 

[Gareth Bale]

No.

It activates on Origin though

Some people like it, some people apparently hate it. I haven't played it yet but I apparently bought it some time ago, and I guess picked up the DLC on sale later. The impressions I get from what I've seen and people say are the following:

* The graphics are nice
* The sniping is decent, but
* The enemies are nearly psychic and can see you through a bush half a mile away

 

[Baha]

Thanks for the impressions, I'll give it a shot since I have a coupon handy.

 

[Stallion Free]

trollfacEA.jpg

True story: I bought Alice on a past Steam sale and when the game asked to be activated and I put the cd-key in, it auto-registered the game to my Origin account as well. It was especially eerie because it didn't ask for my login info first, it just grabbed it from the Origin install.

 

[Volcynika]

Damn.

Fun Fact: If it's an EA game, it will not activate on Steam!

 

[BackwardsSuggestions]

Anyone to get the 2 small icons to look like the rest? Looks so out of place. I've tried changing the icon under settings but doesn't work.

Yeah happened with me too, I was positively surprised. Although I never used it of course.

You can't. I know, it sucks. That's why I use Detail View.

Yes, I figured out a way.

Spoiler

Don't buy games that have tiny icons.

 

[Stumpokapow]

buy more games so you have like hundreds of pages, and then scroll to a page where no games have small icons.

 

[Zzoram]

Those tiny icons are the reason I use detail view.

Valve needs to fix it if they ever want us to use tile view. I would gladly switch back to tile if I didn't have to look at tiny icons.

 

[iNvid02]

uninstall them forever, those pos dont deserve a place in your games library

 

[Joe Molotov]

Also a viable option.

Look at that, perfect!

That's not a valid solution Dave.

Just place a sticky note over the missing game art on the screen, problem solved.
