Could be this or they are helping Chinese Room to finish the game because its their engine.
If its going to be wiritten by the Dear Esther team, we at least know they will make the game feel atmospheric. Because that is the one thing you cannot deny Dear Esther
that reminds me; were the funky messages that it was said to be giving out legit? the ones about 343 loves IOS or somesuch and that the trilogy was coming to platform.
I'd say Frictional's involvement is similar to Valve with HPE and CS:GO -- a small satellite to team to assist with and oversee development. Frictional's own next game will mark the debut of the next version of its engine so I'd wager most of the focus is on that front.
solid as a rock. Why are they sitting on this like we don't all know it's coming already? It's not like it's going to conflict with the One launch.
Maybe MS is worried it'll conflict with the Steam release of ilomilo+.
Probably because of the XB1 release, Microsoft doesn't want to announce anything positive on the PC side of things.
Hopefully in early 2014, we will get a quiet Halo Trilogy Steam release.
Probably.
I'd hope that MS would see that good brand recognition halos good brand recognition--no pun intended. Something they're a little low on at this moment in time. I see a PC/OSX/Smartphone release doing only good alongside the One, tbh.

Devs haven't said, imagine we'll find out around noon when it should be going up on steam.

Alright, I won't bother posting here about selling copies until its a decent amount cheaper
Do not watch the announcement trailer.
Watch this for a few minutes instead and allow your eyes to adjust.

That trailer is horrible for getting the art style and game play across.
$15 games tend to be just under $10 on Steam RU, but, yeah, good luck finding someone willing to sell it for five keys rather than six or seven.

And I'm wrong, sorry! I'll certainly buy it for 10 dollars if offered. Of course there's barely any profit there

Thanks!
Very, very good call. I've about done a 180 on that last post of mine. This looks f'ing incredible. Especially the bit where the wind kicks up and the shadows start bouncing around.
Writing seems swell too.
E: this detective element to the whole get-up. my goodness. why the hell was the launch trailer selling it as a shootbang.

So does this mean you get the full version or just for the beta? It said 'Skull Girls Beta - To be Revoked'

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.

I'll give it a try then :3 Worth a shot
I actually think it's the opposite, they're sitting on GFWL deactivation to avoid the current negative news cycle, as to avoiding headlines drawing comparison to Xbox One Cloud services.
They probably expect the launch of the console to reverse that tendency, allowing them to release the news under a positive environment and hope the negative comparison slips through the cracks in favour of the positive side of the story.
Thank you!
Intricate. And plausible. I like.

Man, caught it 4m after it was posted, already couldn't find any that weren't used. Even less so now. That's what I get for picking random ones I guess. :/

Did Guncraft just add cards or am I late? I know it wasn't included in the batch ~12 hours ago.
EDIT: Somewhat late apparently.

Took a few tries but I got a code. Thanks.
Is ModBot sleeping? I sent through a bunch of stuff but didn't get a response.
Nah, according to my sub history it was a retail key for the beta specifically.

Dang, Steamgifts is down for an unknown amount of time and I had 3 giveaways ending in like an hour :/

No, but it would've been nice.
At least we're getting that XBox One controller support for PC in 2014, right?
I'd be perfectly fine with a GTAIVesque eight-month-late port provided it guaranteed adequate optimisation -- less GTAIV and more Max Payne 3.
Coincident with the Steam release of the original Halo trilogy.
This reeks of damage control.

It took a few tries, but I got one to work from somewhere in the middle of the list.
Thank you for sharing this. I will give the game a shot.
