That too, I played 4 hours of Dark Souls, 90% of which was spent watching the "You died" message.
I'll have to restart it and try to understand the mechanics and everything.

I probably won't have the time to bite into Dark Souls until July. Stupid papers and exams.
I'd have appreciated it.
That won't be a long stay either though. And you know what's next.

I'll move on to Origin.

This sentence is the epitome of procrastination.
I recently realised that I forgot to change the two lines in dsfix.ini that relate to the game's internal rendering resolution. Oops.
The GFWL Marketplace? At least I'll finally be able to get a DD copy of Gears of War! (How strange that with all the MS games that were recently uncovered in the registry, Gears PC wasn't among them.)
Nothing yet.

And then uPlay. From that you can move on to the Gamestop or GamersGate exclusives, GOG, Desura... until you need to install Windows 8.
Wasn't Gears pretty buggy? Or did they fix it?

Before reopening Steam, try deleting ClientRegistry.blob (root folder) and winui.gcf (in steamapps).
I've only played it once and that was all the way back in 2007, but a mate and I co-op'd the campaign so it can't be too buggy. There was a hilarious oversight with the game's digital certificate, though.
Edit: Bah, forgot to switch tabs again.
Apparently you can get Ninja Blade for free from GMG if you link it with you Playfire account. It's not available in Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Guernsey or Japan. Wish I had seen that before I created a Playfire account
1) create a new playfire account
2) get a vpn account
3) link your shit and fake your location with said vpn
4) profit

Ah, alright. Who knows, maybe they're just not interested in putting the rest of the franchise on Steam.
I can neither confirm nor deny whether this worked or not, drizzlex.
I dunno but this is me

Doing a search on my name - dboythagr8 it says last activity 19hrs ago..
I'm trying not go on a full blown panic attack here...
It says you're currently online to me.
Possibly, but even so that's hardly cause for ignoring the existing PC port of the original.
yes. for some reason steam forgot my computer and i put in various account names and got to the one i use..
it's never done that before but it looks like its ok..thanks for checking though

Any chance of Dark Souls or Sleeping Dogs going on sale soon? I'm thinking of getting one of those or Borderlands 2 along with CS:GO.
I doubt you'll see Sleeping Dogs seeing as it was on sale in the last two weeks on both Steam and GMG, perhaps on Amazon or GG.
As for Dark Souls, if you're on Europe you could order the physical version (registers on Steam) for around 16 pounds/20 euros on Amazon or Zavvi.

So I have created an account on Playfire and linked it with GMG:
- the game has no Steam key,
- I can feel Playfire will be facebook-spammy,
- I have opted in a mailing list of GMG.
Totally not worth it.

I was watching the latest Pach-Attack! on GT (don't ask me why) and he talks about why Red Dead Redemption isn't on PC.
He thinks "publishers have abandon PC as a platform for most console games because of piracy".
He also says "most of Rockstar games end on PC after 2 or 3 years".

It's a terrible episode.

What's the true reason? I recall reading the game was basically thrown together at the last minute [though if true it doesn't show] and that the team went through severe crunch. Could the game simply not be feasible to easily port as a result or is it merely a business decision?
*glances at tpb out of curiosity*
Um ok, that doesn't really explain why GTAIV, which is such an old game, is being so heavily pirated compared to Borderlands 2 or XCOM, two much more recent Take Two games. Hardly anyone is pirating Civ V, which is another singleplayer-heavy game.
Rolling Securom + GFWL + Rockstar Social Club all into one game isn't really helping their case.

I like it, it's really fun to play classic matches and the shooting follows the classic counter-strike formula (with no scopes and whatnot). Though the problem I seem to have with it is the lack of players playing some times late at night. Haven't played for a couple of months though so there may have been an influx of players while I've been gone.
EDIT: Ohh just noticed that you said you've never played Counter Strike.... Hmmm, well I would say that GO is much more noob-friendly as most of the hardcore Counter Strike players still play 1.6 or Source. But other than that I think it's a good game.
If you truly want the classic Counter-Strike experience and your into a tough learning curve that involves getting your ass kicked for months before your reflexes can match up with some of the people playing, then get 1.6.

gmg seems to be kind of cheap with either the coupon code or the cash back option.
Okay, what the Christ is "Biontôt l'été"?
Bientôt lété is a videogame for two players. Two players who pretend to be lovers. They pretend to be lovers separated from each other by lightyears of deep space. They have lonely walks along the shore of a simulated ocean, thinking wistful thoughts of each other. Thoughts from ancient Earth literature by Marguerite Duras.
Is it the kind of thing people will say changed their life or the worst hipster bullshit ever?

I streamed this last night and I have to say that
It's total shit, wankery at its finest
If you're curious, you can check out the VODs here until I figure out how to get these off of justin.tv and onto youtube. (They're labeled lazily as Tale of Tales somethingorother)

It just sounds like the flavor text needed more things to remind you it was french.
I'm usually all over weird art games but I dislike Tales of Tales' output in general and I doubt that'll be any different. They should just shoot short films instead.
Huh. I'd actually say the current trend is pretty much the opposite of that.
Don't forget it's Pachter we're talking about. I'd be surprised if he gets something, ANYTHING, right.
I'm sure he'll label me as part of the 75% of GAF that's an asshole due to this post.

Has anyone ordered this and actually received keys? I've been waiting for about 10 hours now.
A chart is meaningless. What matters are the numbers behind it. For all we know, it could be a few hundreds players per game. That doesn't make the successful, even if they are in a top 10.
Hotline Miami music suddenly stopped working.. I was trying to do A+ in all stage(Im in the level 10) but without music is just not fun anymore
Someone? The music in this game is vital..even for the gameplay..
Try disabling your printer spooler in task manager, worked for me.
I'd be perfectly comfortable being in that 75%
