[HoosTrax]

Eh...thinking about getting Galaxy on Fire. I hear it's pretty shallow, which doesn't really surprise me given it's a mobile port, but something about the screenshots gives me Tachyon: The Fringe vibes.

Wish Microsoft would do a digital re-release of Freelancer though. It wasn't a joystick-friendly game, but still a lot of fun nonetheless.

Jet Set Radio is $2.49 (Weekly Deal)

http://store.steampowered.com/app/205950/


Tip: You may have to restart your PC after installing. If you notice anything weird (slow speeds or loading), just give it a quick restart and try again.

Other than that one thing, this port is pretty damn good. It runs well, and looks good in 16:9. The new camera (right stick or mouse) feels amazing.

 

[GAMERG0D]

A final fantasy 8 package just got updated in the registry. Probably nothing but intriguing nonetheless.

Don't tear my heatstrings like this SE.

Resident Evil 5

Awyeah. 20% voucher confirmed working too.

Now on to figure out if I can get the splitscreen mod to work.

edit: told my brother about the deal and he'll be playing the online co-op with me. Nice.

Such a great game and is a wonderful test of whether someone is just bad at videogames.

lol, same, I was trying to resist for a while longer. I got it on iOS for the novelty some time ago and it plays like ass, but it got me jonesing for the real thing.

At that price it's... hard... not to... resist. Damn it.

JSR is tempting but considering how the game has aged I think I'll preserve my fond memories of it by passing.

You still got 24 hours bro.

What if Time Shift goes on sale today?

Is it actually good? My brother gave me his unwanted copy recently.

 

[honorless]

You ever play 3? Is it enough of an improvement to buy 4? I played 3 for about 20 hours and liked it.

The fiancé says it's absolutely worth it if you get the collector's pack with Modern Times.

He's played Tropico 3 a few hours less than you and spent 66 hours on Tropico 4, as a point of reference.

 

[FloatOn]

Yeah, I have to restart my computer every time I want to play Jet Set Radio.

Other than that though, it is completely worth it. It's so great to be able to play this again.

It's aged fine. Gamers on the other hand...

Trick question?

Most people just restart once after installing and are good for a while. There may be something on your system that's getting in the way.

New GMG sales are up

Sniper Elite franchise

Train Sim 2013 sales

They changed from my last post,

Haven't checked to see if the 20% code works on them but I'm sure it does, all above are steam redeemable.

To bad that I can't buy Mad Riders, how much is it?

Aged like Helen Mirren.

 

[Acorn]

Is cliffs of dover still an unplayable mess?

 

[Dr Dogg]

Someone mentioned them the other day but it looks like Left4Dead and Lef4Dead at at 75% off.

Edit: And I can't read the 10 or so posts above. D'oh.

 

[Stallion Free]

Trick question?

The graphics are flashing and textures look like they are missing detail. It might be the art style but I think it's my graphics card too. Why is ATI so hard to be?

 

[Chronoja]

To bad that I can't buy Mad Riders, how much is it?

Mad riders is currently £1.98, which should fall to £1.60 I think if the 20% code applies.
edit: Yeah, code works, falls to £1.59

Not sure what it is in dollars. ($2.37?)

 

[Glass Rebel]

Yeah, well, who needs fancy hair any way? Bloody show off. Thanks for the heads up. By my reckoning with Squenix titles this should be down to £15 by the end of April anyhow. Saying that I can get £20 trade in value and pick up a key for just less than that. Enjoying it so far though, even though I'm missing half the QTE prompts and end up seeing a Lara themed bit of torture porn every time I goof.

A very nice GAFer sold it to me for 25$, let's hope Valve has no issues with ROW versions on my Swiss account

 

[angelfly]

Is Left 4 Dead worth picking up if I already own the second one?

It's aged fine. Gamers on the other hand...

Aged like Helen Mirren.

Yeah, if do end up purchasing anything off steam this week (which is a good 99.999999% chance) it'll probably end up in the cart.

 

[ShaneB]

Nice. RE5 for a fiver. I'll get that.

And to whoever asked about Left 4 Dead 2 a couple days ago, see, there it is on sale like I said

 

[FloatOn]

I should probably check my video drivers. Thanks for the reminder.

No. The second one has all the maps of the first one, so it does not really make that much sense.

Well apart from that Dirt 3/ATi fiasco, duped Dead Island keys or the German stolen MW2 keys Valve are pretty good with ROW keys with us europeans. I've got a couple from Get Games and nVidia promos and they're a ok.

One thing that's doing my nut in with TR is the horrid console FOV. Despite being sat away for my TV by about 5 meter it feels like I've got my nose pressed right into the middle of Lara's back. Could be worse, eh.

 

[Stallion Free]

I wish my faced was pressed up against Lara for the whole game. I want your version of the game.

In dollars it's like 2.07 more or less (I think) lol, the problem is that I can't buy it, there's no "Buy now" button!

Thank you bro!

I was on the fence but this will do it.

Well as nice as the view is it does cut off half the context sensitive button prompts. The other half was watching me play last night and commented "she looks a bit dirty" which I took completely the wrong way.

DMC4 doesn't, but it's not an online game, so it might be different.

 

[Rickenslacker]

The game does it for me as well, I can't tell what triggers it but after a certain amount of PC uptime the game will just start in a single digit framerate.

Unless GFWL flat-out doesn't work with your PC, I can't imagine skipping RE5.
It's an excellent port.
