I've been hesitant about preordering it.
Guess I'll wait for more reviews first to see what staying power it has.
(I've got way too many games that seemed cool, but fell flat within the first hour)

People are reporting that you'll be finished after an hour. Now what I don't know is if there's any replayability, for example if you can keep all the little badgers alive.

 

[Freezard]

Unless it releases for $25-30, it's not a big ol value over having bought the stuff piecemeal while on sale

Gabe is gonna give BL2 GOTY to me for $5 during the xmas sale, I can feel it.

That's what I was afraid of.
I don't mind games that last an hour if they deliver a good story or feels, but I'm sort of hesitant to pay 10€ for them...

Dungeon siege complete is the daily for 75% off, 5€

Rayman isn't getting a midnight release . 6pm (UK) unlock time tomorrow. Normal store flip over.

I'm almost over my hate for the last levels of Origins, one more night of sleep and I'll be ready.

I cross-referenced the recently-greenlit games against IGBW's database. Here's the list.

 

[PetriP-TNT]

Contraption Maker...

The original Incredible Machine developers...

This sounds amazing.

Well about time! Funny how one of the alpha milestones was "All TIM machines"

 

[Lingitiz]

Don't know if this was posted.

Creative Assembly just announced preloading for Rome 2 will start today at 10PDT. It's gonna be like 30 gigs so it would be good to start early.

 

[Anustart]

Contraption Maker...

This sounds amazing.

Question, did Incredible Machine have levels with reversed gravity (or maybe moon gravity?) and a level editor?

I remember playing a game back in junior high that reminds me of this contraption maker.

Rome was not downloaded in one day.

When were you in junior high? If it was in he late 90s to early 00’s than yes, you most likely played the Incredible Machine. If it was later, it may have been the Crazy Machines.

 

[Anustart]

Yeah, early to mid-90s. Started highschool in 96, so 92-96, somewhere in there.

 

[C00kie M0nster]

Yeah, early to mid-90s. Started highschool in 96, so 92-96, somewhere in there.

Then yeah, most definitely the Incredible Machine. I have so many memories of this game. I'm picking this up for sure.

 

[RionaaM]

It still handles the game license, dlc licenses, downloading of content like any other title. Considering all the user made community market stuff that runs outside the scope of Origin, if it weren't just integrated into the game, you'd probably still want some kind of supplemental program to manage things like mods/packages. Games on Steam have had launchers for much dumber reasons.

Not in the case of the Mass Effect games, those must be bought from the BioWare store.

And I never said I liked Steam games having their own launcher. But that can't be blamed on Valve, since they didn't publish those games. All the Origin games mentioned previously were published by EA, and there's just no excuse there.

September 17 for 14.99 with a 10% pre-order discount

seems kind of charming.

 

[MMBosstones86]

Have the Dungeon Siege 1 and 2 held up ok? I know they are cheap as hell, but gotta save that card money.

I was checking it out as well. Right up my alley with the gameplay and charm

They're better than 3, to be honest... not that that's saying much, of course.

Sega needs to hurry up with the Castle of Illusion page already.

 

[Grief.exe]

Played about 30 minutes of Shelter.

Great artstyle
No UI (awesome)
Music reminds me of Thomas Was Alone

You basically explore the world and find treats for your little badger family while avoiding potential hazards.

I will put up my impression video tonight.

Yeah, that's what we really need, I hope they do not delay it!

If you're intending to play the games via LAN, you'll need to jump through some hoops (DS1/DS2).

Probably not a popular opinion, but I think Dungeon Siege 2 was the best one.

I'm pretty open to most gaming genres, but nothing about this sounds exciting at all. I'll be looking forward to your impression video

Doesn't negate my previous points, if there weren't some extra manager outside of the game to manage user content and EA relied on users mucking around in explorer moving files around, it doesn't sound like much of a trade off.

And the DLC for Origin versions? Sounds more like laziness than bad policy. Seeing as ME3 would have been the only one where Origin was already established by its release, they probably figured it was easier to continue riding it out with Bioware's system rather than having a mish mash of user licenses all over the place with the ME trilogy.

The game also doesn't have a wealth of content, apparently you can beat the whole thing in about an hour and a half. I can see this being an issue for someone, but, personally, I don't correlate time spent in a game to value.

If the video doesn't go up tonight, then expect it tomorrow morning. I am coming down with a cold and didn't get much sleep last night.

Interestingly enough, the base Mass Effect game does not have any DRM attached to it, but the DLC does.
The DLC comes with Securom and a 3 machine limit.

Dude I'm going to have nightmares after seeing this.

 

[def sim]

That turtle is frightening.

Exactly my thoughts, I know we are all desperate for something new, but this game just sounds plum boring....

 

[BoosterDuck]

I'm scared ;_;

Humble... Comedy bundle?

No weekly?

[MMBosstones86]

guess Humble Bundle's turn to take a week off.

 

[Turfster]

Weekly turnover day is tomorrow.

Oh, right, thursday.

 

[JawesomeJaw]

To be fair, the Hannibal Buress and Tig Notaro specials are really great, especially at any price.

On topic, X bundle tomorrow?

 

[Tak3n]

anyone seen any reviews on the turtle game?

is it suitable for young eyes?

 

[JaseC]

It feels as though people have been expecting the X Bundle to go on sale every day for a week now.

Well, X-Rebirth just went up, but since it releases on Nov 15th, I can see the bundle coming a bit later.

EDIT: Hmm it went up a few days ago. Thought that happened today for some reason.

 

[JaseC]

Turtles is (relatively) expensive in Russialand: roughly $12 versus the usual ~$9. One for the Autumn Sale, I guess.

[Chance Hale]

Well, the TMNT game seems like it looks somewhat nice even if the turtles themselves are horrifying.

 

[nexen]

That is a publicity shot from her upcoming role in the NOLF movie.

It looks like one of those renders that are intentionally off-putting, like realistic Mario and realistic Homer.

Wow. To me she looks a lot better with dark hair.

Just noticed gamefly's new site. This is a pretty nice heads up

Front page could use some work though
http://digital.gamefly.com/#!/pc
The secondary carousel doesn't list prices for some reason. Weird unless they're trying to get more clickz
