I'm surprised that both BB hasn't been brought over to Steam from the Win8 store, and GG is still exclusive to GOG.
Just give me Xrd, arcsys. I'll call it even.

I am sure it is old news to most if not all of you, but I didn't realize the re revelations was on the pc. I tried the demo and it sort of feels like a return to the style I love, with horror placed above action.
After looking it up on how long to beat I am discouraged as it seems like a shorter game than I would like and watching/reading reviews makes it seem like some action parts are tossed in which assuming they never become the focus I am fine with. The game looks great even on my now fairly old hardware, but I am torn.
What say you gaf worth $24?

Would easily pay that if I had hope it might send Capcom the message that there is still an audience for a more horror driven re.

Well that didn't last very long. Missed it.
That's an instabuy when it happens.
YESYESYESYESYESYESYES... although, I'm pretty biased.What say you gaf worth $24?Would easily pay that if I had hope it might send Capcom the message that there is still an audience for a more horror driven re.
As for action-level, it is a bit less action than RE4 even though you can move and shoot. It is much more cramped the whole time and there is less heavy weaponry shenanigans
Anyway you should get it to support the series and also help me make a badge for it.

So I own pretty much everything in the Humble Bundle except for Dead Island Riptide, until Risen 1 was added to it. I don't think it was ever released here in Aus, so I could never get it. I went looking on Steam after playing Risen 2 because I heard good things without success.
So now I have it and Metro 2033 installing. What can I expect GAF? Also, here's the other games I already have. Plus Serious Sam.
While I'm here, any chance I can get into the GAF group?

Hey, quick invite. Thanks, and I hope you enjoy those games guys.
Any thoughts on Risen 1/Metro 2033?
Any thoughts on Risen 1/Metro 2033?
Metro 2033 is very worthwhile. It is a rather demanding game though
Thanks for the quick reply, I know 4 is a gaf darling, but for me it just never clicked for me, it felt like it changed the series form horror, to a third person shooter with monsters instead of bad guys with guns.
The demo seemed to really set the old re feeling back, not sure how well as a whole the game does with this, but for the first time since code Veronica I found myself enjoying re game play.
MK9, KOF XIII, Skullgirls, Divekick, Yatagarasu
whys this the first time im hearing of Yatagarasu? It looks really good.

Risen is a great game if you like rpgs and exploration. You have a whole island to explore and you can go almost anywhere from the beginning but of course you are going to be held back by enemies higher then you in certain areas. Combat is janky and is mostly about mastering the dodge, but when it clicked for me it became fun.
Metro 2033 is a pretty good as well, really awesome sound design.

Playing on the Unepic demo on Desura, now I'm so hyped for the full finished version on Steam. I'm tempted to do Early Access, the game is so fun and well-made.
Are you saying the current SteamGAF group is full of uncool people?

Im saying the ratio of cool/uncool is messed up. Too many members.
in all seriousness the weird part about it is that the frequents here don't really use the group
The single player aspect is already finished on Steam (been playing it myself, am near the end). Early access part is only for the MP I believe. Great game, very old school. Holy shit at all the ladders though.

You know the addition of myself makes up for that.
Thanks for the quick invite, xelios.
I think the art does the humor well.
Unepic's promo art style and "hey im just a gamer nerd dude who likes anime and is trapped in this medieval world" is soooooooo offputing to me, it's unfortunate
also its called UNEPIC ffs

The group chat is pretty fucking weird most of the time to be fair
We got past the furry shit in Dust, we can get past this. Good game is good game.

I bet the game is great it's just a shame that its inside such an ugly package
no
graphics is the best way to judge a game

This is a seriously tough choice. Both Derek Yu and Lucas Pope are developers I really respect and who are an inspiration to me as an amateur game developer, and both of their games I followed closely throughout development; I still remember playing Spelunky's early builds, and there's absolutely no doubt in my mind they both deserve my money and more (I get the feeling many share these thoughts though, and both games will have significantly warm welcomes to Steam so my mind is at ease).
On the other hand Guacamelee's devs I haven't really followed for long, but I liked all the announcement shenanigans and the "NeoGAAAAF!!!!" vine they did, so I already like themplus Guacamelee looks nothing short of brilliant, and I'm a huge Metroidvania fan. However, I know for sure my brother is getting this one and I guess that will allow me to play it enough so that I can wait until it's on sale or I come across some extra money.
I think I'll go with Spelunky, simply because I've been recently craving a good roguelike (missed out on Rogue Legacy, although it still sits firmly somewhere in the top spots of my wishlist), and because I've been hyping myself for it this past week, watching LPs and reviews and gosh, I was so damn frustrated when it was announced it would be a Xbox Live exclusive
I'll eventually buy Papers, Please though, and I'm crossing my fingers it will be sooner rather than later.
I will get Spelunky. This is the only game of these three which I have been expecting for a year.
I had only heard about Guacamelee and I am not totally convinced: the visuals are great, as it is the case for Fly'N, but what about the gameplay?
About Papers Please, I found the alpha demo compelling but the gameplay is a bit boring.

Now installing Cherry Tree High Comedy Club instantly and starting it to sell the cards.
lol, Spelunky is the biggest inspiration for The Binding of Isaac dude
is Edmund Mcmillen's favorite game
the original game came out in 09
They have a high price but don't sell very much, expecting the prices to crash before anyone actually buys the cards..
If its not released on Steam, then it doesn't count.
Spelunky took inspiration from Binding of Isaac.

since this is the Steam thread:
these are the games that are on Steam (Cherry Tree High Comedy Club, Ether Vapor Remaster) and Greenlight (Croixleur, War of the Human Tanks)
I encourage adding Yatagarasu and if you like it help fund the indiegogo
War of the Human Tanks was in a Bundle befor. Cant remember in wich one.
they actually asked Derek Yu to put the original on Steam and he declined cause he wanted to get the best version possible out there
all hail
Sorry if this is in the wrong thread.
Anyone willing to trade for their Borderlands 2 Season Pass? I missed it for $10 on Steam and don't have the money to purchase it > $20 right now, but would very much love to play it right now heh.
Can offer The Walking Dead and ~20 Steam Trading Cards.

Man those Ether Vapor and Cherry Blossom cards are about to get smashed.
Spelunky > isaac > spelunky
!
So, i played inmomentum for about 1.5hr and oromptly deleted it afterwards. Its a bad mirrors edge with a fancy art style and pretty bad mechanics. Basically you jump/walljump through a course of abstract floating shapes to get the best time/gather orbs. And thats it. The singleplayer is multiplayer, solo and offline, which is the same race mode but with powerups and multiple racers, online.
Jumps and walljumps often didn't register and multiplayer is DEAD. Tried a few levels in solo and thought hey, why not get all the achievements until i saw half of them are meant for the dead multiplayer.
I guess its a game that means well at its core but is just executed poorly. 2 Faiths out of 5.

Time to idle the shit out of some kawaii games.
EDIT: Part of me hopes that Magical Diary shows up as the other bonus. I spite gifted it to a friend who told me about how amazingly horrible their life in that game went and I almost want to see if it's real.
