I finally get a shot at winning Xcom and ModBot goes down. :lol

Well, I have to head out soon. Let's hope ModBot doesn't come collecting souls once he starts functioning again.

You should get the GOG version anyways, you really don't want the Steam version.

It is so riddled with horrible DRM, just don't even bother. I picked it up well before I started actively looking for DRM.

I got back from lunch and patted myself on the back for not buying Monaco on the daily deal as I don't need to spend any more money right now. Then I remember the dailies stay up for 24 hours extra now. >___< WILL POWER... HNNGGGG

Oh my, I had too many of those.
Its checkpoints occasionally did put me in front of enemy guards with no chance of escaping undetected. While I was doing no kill/detection run! That meant I had to restart the level entirely.

What? How?
Most of the Mark of the Ninja checkpoints were in vents.

Monaco is a really really great game if you have friends, though, so you're doing yourself a disservice by not getting it! ;)

Fair enough (and to further clarify, my tone was meant more jokingly rather than the dickish Dad tone it probably reads as). I use my credit card almost exclusively for those exact reasons, too. But it's important to maintain the mindset that, even though it isn't due for a month, it is still your money that you're spending.

Basically, treat your credit card like a debit a card.

I see people malign credit cards here too much. They can be used to your advantage if you approach them with the correct mindset. I get between 300 and 400 dollars every year in reward points I can use on Amazon -- just for using my credit card normally and responsibly.

Is it normal for Steam to block you from selling things for a week if you add wallet funds with new payment info? I got a rebate card from building my new PC that I figured I would toss into my Steam wallet and now I can't sell my cards for that sweet, free money.

Yes. It's to prevent fraud in user-to-user transactions.

Dammit... I have three friends coming over tonight and four PS3 controllers. I may have to happen. I think the universe demands it.

Yes. If you change your payment options, password or any other information, you can't use the market for a while.

Believe it or not, this happened me during the summer sale gone, for 10 days I think it was. I was raging. Couldn't buy an tf2 keys to trade with russians for cheap games. oh well... at least I didnt end up binge buying.

Most. They decided to put checkpoints inside big buildings that had many guards with complex routes and no vents, that's was just asking for trouble.

Well, it's been a while. I never really had a problem with it, sorry. Still, it was much better than a checkpoint every X minutes in a 3D FPS stealth game.

No! Don't buy the game at all, its a very bad iteration of Castlevania.

If you want a great Castlevania game, check out Symphony of the Night, Dawn/Aria of Sorrow, or Order of Ecclesia.

I'd like to try SotN, but sadly I don't have a PS3 or Xbox to play it. And importing the DS games would be expensive, though I think I could do it someday.

I mean, I still want to get Bit.Trip Saga despite it being a terrible port (Runner and Flux have a horrible frame rate), so how much worse can it be?

Yeah, it's still better than those games.
MotN is still fantastic game in my opinion despite those occasional frustrating checkpoints.

I'm not saying its a horrible port. Bad ports can still be worth playing because they are just that good.

I'm saying its a bad game and not worth your time.

I don' t mind it, honestly. It's nice when conversation picks up in here. I like the atmosphere in the Steam threads - the way people just hang out and talk about games here without the knives coming out, or everything turning into a debate. It's a nice feeling.
