Support NeoGAF

I can bring myself to believe it somewhat more than most other rumors - SEGA had a Jet Set Radio beta mulling about in the internal xbox live service for at least a year or two before we even had a whiff that the release was going to happen. Perhaps even more so.

JSRF and Skies of Arcadia next plz. Oh and a better goddamn port of Crazy Taxi with the original music intact.

I would want Skies of Arcadia to be released in Steam. I borrowed it once from a friend, but never finished it

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Max Payne 3 is $14.99. Hitman Absolution: Professional is $19.99, also on sale at Amazon.

 

[Tizoc]

When can we expect the Steambox to be announced or shown BTW? I've not been keeping up much with it...

Ya know what would also be a nice addition to Steam? Phantasy Star Collection. JPN PSN has 1-4 remastered or such for something like $10, and that ver. has English language.

Also Yakuza 1-5+DS for PC/Steam.

You think this Groupees bundle is worth it?

You think this Groupees bundle is worth it?

If you don't have any of the games, definitely.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Okay then. Is Two Worlds good or something?

When is that Amazon sale gonna end? The CC I use with Amazon is canceled and I need to wait 4 or so days to be able to make any purchases @_@

The sale runs for a week, so the 28th is the final day.

There is a quite nice deal for Resident Evil in some countries (by, jp, probably others).
Resident Evil 4 and 6 in a bundle for $39.99. Considering you also get RE5 for pre-ordering, that gives RE4+5+6 for $40.

I think you mean Devil May Cry 4.

 

[Cosmic Schwung]

Brutal Legend is a couple of quid cheaper over at Gamefly. Of course going that route means missing out on the hats if that's something important to you.

Looks like DMC4. If it was the pc version of RE4 I would almost consider that a disincentive.

Edit: damn you, Jase!

I don't see RE5 is part of the pre order in ?cc=by. Only DMC4

Thanks for the info, hope the CC gets ready by then XP.

It think it used to be a pre-purchase reward. Looks like it's been replaced by DMC4.

 

[Ledsen]

Hard to say without the context of the sentences around it. Assuming it already logically fits in, it's still a bit wordy, especially for a brochure. I'd pare it down just to 'The right way to get into a line of work and learn it from the ground up.' Maybe even just replace 'line of work' with career.

Sentence is fine but like you said it is incomplete. At the end you should add from the ground up is Too work hard. Or whatever your trying to show off or explain.

Thanks for the input guys!

Sorry, I'm still half asleep I guess. Of course it's DMC4.

You get RE5 as a bonus if you pre-order RE6. Still, DMC4+RE5+RE6 is quite a nice deal I think.

Problem is the store page no longer says anything about RE5 which looks like it's been replaced by DMC4. Bit of an odd change if that is actually the case but I'm sure they have their reasons.

The store page doesn't mention anything about RE5

 

[ngt]

All right, they must have changed it, I've checked and it said RE5 earlier. So certain countries get DMC4 as a bonus instead of RE5. Sorry for the confusion.

 

[Shahadan]

What the hell. I played some Rayman Origins yesterday and today upon loading my save Rayman is stuck on the world map. Can't do anything except open the menu. Great.

I searched a bit on google, seems like many people had this problem and the game sometimes erase your savefile after that. Apparently it was never fixed. I love you Ubi.

 

[ArjanN]

Capcom changed the pre-order bonus for RE6 to DMC4 instead of RE5 for countries that don't support GFWL.

Got Max Payne 3 and Binary Domain for under $20 with the code. Now to take a vacation while Max Payne installs.

Anyone uses IsThereAnyDeal.com? I'm looking for a seamless way to know deals from other places and this looks like exactly what I want. You can login with steam and import your wishlist, but I wanted to know if anyone had any weird issues with that or something of the sort.

I have http://isthereanydeal.com/?by=cut:desc#/filter:steamworks,&week,&hidedlc,&hidemac as one of my sites I often hit...but I've never log in there, just browse or search. Wouldn't think it is worth giving any site my steam details.

Nice, it seems Australia is getting Tomb Raider earlier than elsewhere:

So what's everyone's opinion on Two Worlds 2 and Dungeons: The Dark Lord?

 

[Rufus]

So what's everyone's opinion on Two Worlds 2 and Dungeons: The Dark Lord?

Two Worlds 2 is hokey but fun. Playing it right now. Combat is janky but more ambitious than Elder Scrolls ever was, so that's something. The magic system is interesting too, but I'm not really taking advantage of it and cheesing my way through with super powerful fireballs and the occasional giant scorpion summon. Really just a lot of dumb fun, all things considered. Gothic has more character, but they feel quite similar in the end. If you like those or Divinity 2, this is pretty much just more of that.

 

[Stallion Free]

Two Worlds 2 is pretty generic and it gets boring pretty quickly. It feels very MMO-ish in it's quest design.

 

[Bumhead]

Are there are any good wrestling games available on PC? I see there are none on Steam which is a shame.

Got an itch I'd like to scratch.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

The Witcher 2 is on sale at Gamersgate.
$6.78

I played so many RPGs I can't tell any more. It's always go there, kill and or get something, then come back. Always. It doesn't even register any more.

Inversion is on sale for $5 on amazon. With the CAGROCKS coupon its $3.75. Not sure if it is any good.

PSA: Amazon's Inversion keys are region-locked to the US America, so international customers will need to use a VPN to activate the game.

Yeah I think I'll do that too, or at most make an account on the site with a separate list.

If you dig 3rd person shooters I think it's a great pick up at that price. Really solid game worth the 5$ price point.

It really only becomes a problem when the world design feels MMO-ish as well, which TW2's does. It feels very flat and spread out with a lot of dead space akin to zones in WOW.

 

[MMBosstones86]

Anyone have any opinions on Gyromancer? I have an odd thing for Puzzle RPG's lately and its <5 on Amazon.

Guess I could try the demo when I get home, wanted to poll GAF first.

I don't live in the US and the game activated as NSCA, what does it mean?

Pretty funny how now its MMO-ISH..lol when before there were MMMos it was still the same old...go there do this.

>.<

I did notice that practically everything you see is connected to a quest at some point, so there's little point in exploring the landscape or even towns, but in the end it feels very similar to other games in the genre to me. Only I teleport everywhere.

Totally off topic but I just noticed this: Are our own posts a slightly different shade than other people's? Like, a very slight blue hue?

MMO-ish in the same way Amalur felt like a SP MMO?

 

[1-D_FTW]

Nights seems like a decent enough purchase. Although it's certainly a game that would have benefited from running at 60fps. Very much so.

 

[Snuggles]

I've asked about Gyromancer before. Have you played Puzzle Quest? Because both do the same thing (match 3 meets RPG) but PQ is generally regarded as the better game. I've heard Gyro has difficulty spikes that can be frustrating.

But I still want to try it myself since I've enjoyed everything else PopCap has done.

 

[JaseC]

I don't live in the US and the game activated as NSCA, what does it mean?

NSCA = North/South/Central America... so, you're right, the keys aren't region-locked to the US, but they are region-locked to the continent of America.

 

[Stallion Free]

Yeah, I haven't played Amalur, but I'm going to assume it's the exact same feeling

Oh thank you Jase for the info, so I was lucky then

Fuck it. I bought it anyway.
Don't really see the big deal with Steam drm sometimes.

Wait, would this be the case for all their digital games that have the "Currently, this item is available only to customers located in the United States and who have a U.S. billing address" warning like Inversion? I'm in South America, want to purchase Dead Space through Amazon and it has the same US-only description.

edit: hmm, maybe it's only for codes and not downloads.

 

[Relax.MX]

Someone know if Dead Island GotY on Amazon is NA or NSCA?
