Get your Coffee Mug ready my good people!

Hoping for a sensible price and good port. Can't wait to play it.

Honestly, they could sell it for $1000 and I would still buy the hell out of it. That's how good the game is. It's one of those experiences you really can't put a price on.

And to the top of my wishlist you go. (I would have preordered instantly if possible.)

 

[DukeBobby]

I've had no internet at home for a week, so I haven't been on GAF much.

Have I missed any important news?

 

[PetriP-TNT]

And to the top of my wishlist you go. (I would have preordered instantly if possible.)

What's the price? $19,99 would be PERFECT

I can't get to Giana Sisters to run. When I bring up the launcher I get this error:

So I did some research and someone on their forum mentioned re-downloading and installing the Visual C++ Redistributable Package, but when I do that I get this error:

I also tried installing DirectX again but it keeps telling me I have the latest version.

Any suggestions?

Castlevania LOS PC version was released and is amazing.

 

[Robert J. Sullivan]

Nigoro is supposed to show their next game at TGS. Considering the masterpiece La-Mulana is, pretty excited for that.

hype levels through the roof

No price yet.

i have my first foil...what if i use it with normal cards for the badge?

You can't, foil badge is separate.

 

[chronomac]

I played the Rayman Legends demo last night and I have no idea how a game that pretty runs so smoothly on my laptop. Granted, i have a Core i5 with 8 GBs of RAM, but only onboard graphics. It seems like magic. Buying that game pretty soon.

 

[duppolo]

so basically i have to sell it and with that money buy 2 normal cards.
natural selection loading is so slow!

Hmm. Did you try to verify integrity of game cache?

It's the other way around fellow GAFfer, it was you that we missed. Welcome back!

Edit: According to Rising Star, pre-order will go up closer to launch.

I'll be playing this one as soon as I buy it so it may be a day 1 purchase for me depending on the price.

 

[yamo]

The average is locked at $5.80. It is the average price of all Humble Bundles. That's why if you look at the Windows/Mac/Linux average it is way different.

What? Deep Silver and Origin bundles were around 5 dollars, they are not locked.

This deal is getting worse all the time.

2) "Everything I love about the shows and comic books is here." The developers really pushed this: this game was made for the 30-something Turtles fan. Except, in reality, it's not. Despite having completely different (and sometimes creepy) graphics, all of the characters are exactly the same as they are in the brand new Nickelodeon show. And as if to add insult to injury, they didn't even get the same voice actors from the new show. There isn't much here for the 30-something TMNT fan, especially if you haven't watched the new show.

I was hoping the game would be good, but I knew the developers were bullshitting about everything and that this game wasn't made for the 25+ TMNT fan.

I forgot what video I watched, but they were asked if the game would have Rocksteady and Bebop and they said no, because they weren't on the Nickelodeon show.

Game made for adults based off kids show? Yeah...

 

[JBourne]

Yes, I will be playing Deadly Premonition again. Wonderful game, despite its many flaws.

 

[chronomac]

Hmm. Did you try to verify integrity of game cache?

No but only because I don't know how to do that. I did reinstall the game twice though. I thought that, perhaps, the game didn't download correctly. No dice there.

 

[Momentary]

I wish Atlus could convince some of their developers to make PC ports of their games. I just looked at the five games that are on Steam and Rock of Ages and Droplitz are the best they have to offer. That Persona fighting game sure does looks nice... isn't that running on PC hardware?

 

[ashecitism]

Right click on the game -> properties -> and it's on the third tab

Was just thinking the same. More Japanese games would be cool.

 

[Deques]

Still? Or how do you know if you'll get it for free.

you see when you check out

Heretic II first.

 

[Martian]

Heretic II first.

How about Warcraft 3? Or is blizzard against Steam?

 

[Atraveller]

They don't like cuts, they want all the money for themselves.

 

[vermadas]

Heretic II first.

I don't think I ever bought the full game, but I have fond memories of playing the demo for this and slicing up other dudes online with bladed staves.

 

[JaseC]

Blizzard has Battle.net. The service launched way back in '96, alongside the release of the original Diablo, so I can forgive the exclusivity compared to EA abandoning Steam in favour of pushing Origin.

I don't think I ever bought the full game, but I have fond memories of playing the demo for this and slicing up other dudes online with bladed staves.

I prefer it to the original -- going from a fantasy FPS to a third-person action-adventure game was the right call to make, I think.

 

[drizzle]

Also, Blizzard has like 4 games. And Battle.net only sells Blizzard games and expansions.

It's a very focused service. Origin, on the other hand, is just EA getting greedy and wanting a bigger piece of the pie.

I forgive nothing. I want Diablo 2 on steam.

Castle of Illusion is on GMG, 25% discount doesn't work with it apparently =P

Thanks. Steam validated the cache successfully.

It's also such a waste of potential. Think that Warcraft 1 and 2, (and I think Diablo and Starcraft 1) have no digital release anywhere, and it's not like blizzards library of games is so extensive that they couldn't throw it up there. Such a shame really.

How is LoS doing on the top sellers and concurrent player list?

 

[Stumpokapow]

How is LoS doing on the top sellers and concurrent player list?

concurrent players -- 1,100 (around 90th on the top 100)
top sellers -- 7th

Here's hoping for another general 20% discount code; that would knock it down to $11.99 and I don't see traders going lower than six keys (assuming the game is ~$9 in Eastern Europe).

 

[ashecitism]

Agreed.

No prob. The game runs now, right?

 

[Boss Doggie]

To those who still have no La Mulana, get it!

[Bluemercury]

That game is huge and ridiculous hard. I tried, i really did...

 

[chronomac]

Agreed.

Negative. I think there was a problem installing the Redistributable but I don't know how to fix it. I Googled the error and got exactly 0 results.

I was actually playing online as MarkMan, so I was the loser, but I found the placement of Sensai to be humorous

The 25% off voucher will work until September 6th and Castle of Illusion is released on the 4th, so hopefully it works after the release.

It seems to have been in and around the top 10 for the last month, that player count doesn't seem too healthy though.

 

[scorpscarx]

So I'm not going to install Legends even though I pre-ordered it now, too many other games to play in the coming weeks and maybe they'll do away with it so I can savor it near the holidays or something.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Does anyone happen to know how gmg is with deliveries?

I'm thinking of getting GTA 5 through them for the £5 credit.
