Jail broken iPad gave me retinapad but a native iPad version is still preferred.

Got all excited. Realized that it's nothing like the M&M-style Wizardry franchise I remember so fondly.

I agree wholeheartedly. The visuals are godlike and I liked the real world segments before each chapter, but right now it's the most plain boring PC game I've ever beaten. The only reason I kept going was that at least each world had an unique art direction.
To make things worse, it costs 12.49 fucking euros here in Spain. Thank god a gaffer helped me out :/
I was excited 'til I saw open pvp with permadeath in an MMO. Pass. Then I saw it's SoE. Double pass.
I'll just go play Wizardry 8.
Neither. Real time, MMO stuff. Microtransactions are set up to be heavily driven by PKing, players looting your body and possible permadeath.

I just finished the Zodiac Tournament in Sleeping Dogs. To a fan of Hong Kong cinema this was both awesome and hilarious but also pretty short. It needed some Jim Kelly type of companion but otherwise you could really see that UFG is having a lot of fun with these DLCs. They really need to expand the fighting in a sequel though.

I just started this game and it's fucking amazing. My favourite open world game since San Andreas. Yes I prefer this to just cause 2 and saints row series
Really surprising stuff
Yeah, I think saints row 3 is the most fun sandbox game while sleeping dogs is the most satisfying. I wouldn't be surprised at all if GTA 5 steals the action hijack mechanic.

Not yet on Steam, but on the official website:

The game was cheaper 25% during the beta though.

It's a fantastic game IMO but don't expect the same amount of content as in SA. It really isn't that kind of game.
I've had Alice on my wish list for the longest time and £3.49 is a great price, but even at that price I'm kind of wondering if I'll ever dedicate much time to it. The feedback in this thread so far suggests its exactly the sort of backlog fodder I'm trying to avoid at the minute.
Bleurgh. In better news I love the fact the iOS app is now iPad native. Looks really slick and seems to be more responsive than before.

We know the game will be available for Windows only. A Mac version may be released later.
The dev does not want to tell the price before release. However, I guess he will try the same price as QUBE (14€/$15/£12), or a bit more expensive since QUBE was a 4-hour long experience and Antichamber takes 8 hours to be beaten. At most, the pricepoint could be $30, at best $15. I would guess $20 is what is to be expected.
There is a dedicated thread.

Alice is fucking awesome. If you remotely like Platformers, go get it. It's so much fun.

The art style and storytelling should hook you in the first 10 minutes if you like that sort of thing. It's really outstanding and was my personal GOTY for 2011.

Yeah I've noticed that it is more restrictive for sure. Hell I haven't even picked up a gun yet but I really like the Hong Kong film influence and the combat

I don't find platformers with a quadruple jump to be terribly rewarding.

Fuck it. I'm going in on Wizardry Online.

To play devil's advocate a little... Nah.
More to the point the art style is glorious but the game play is right up there with Trine in terms of how tedious it is.
I think the norm is to buy it, play it for an hour and then get bored with it never to touch it again. Going into it with those expectations will probably make it a positive experience (and who knows, some people do end up loving it).
It's a bug/glitch on Valve's side. Should be fixed soon.

Great price, but isn't this a really bad game?
Is there any fun to be had? I love the FM universe and also liked that real-time game for PS1.
how did you get it?
I bought it off a NeoGAF member and I'm thinking that he got the key in a not so legal way, which is making me pissed off. I better get my $30 back...

I played a long time ago, never finished it, but I liked it... I think that there's no a lot of options like this games for PC
But judge yourself, I think that's a great price...

Did the person ever explain how they managed to get keys for DMC for only $30?
it sucks to be scammed. did you get any message that the game was removed?
No....I thought it was his only copy, but after buying it, I see that he posted more DmC keys for sell, I'm such an idiot
Here's his profile

Not sure if this the appropriate thread for it but here goes:
So I've been playing Bioshock for the last couple of days and everything was all good and well, until today when I tried to launch the game it immediately crashed without even going into the game "bioshock.exe has stopped working" I tried validating the local files twice but nothing was wrong there according to steam, tried to launch the game from the steam installation folder and still the same problem.
I was gonna delete and reinstall the game next but I wanted to see if there's any solution here that would save me the time before I go ahead and do it.

He was selling them for as low as $25 (and various other keys in large volume). He claims they're not Russian keys, but it still begs the questions where they came from. Stolen CC comes to mind, but who knows.

Yeah, that looks really sketchy...looks like they were selling another copy of DMC for 25.
Hope you get your money back.

Raitosaito has been doing this for a long time with several games and I don't think anyone ever had a problem. On the other hand I have always been wondering how he gets the games so cheap and why this kind of key reselling is allowed, while key reseller sites are practically banned. Did you try to contact him?
Same thing with this. Always seemed extremely sketchy to me. They're even Steam gifts and I'm sure large scale reselling of games from other region is not exactly allowed on Steam.
Good thing they were smart enough to make this F2P from the outset.
Does seem like players don't really need an incentive to player kill. This just makes player killing all the more enticing. I wonder how likely people are going to buy items when they know everyone else is out to kill them and loot their corpse.

Here is another person selling new releases and pre releases for cheap.
Even asking for requests....

Amazon DVG Deals said:
Well they're supposedly not RU keys. Maybe he's exploiting regional pricing, specifically BR prices? I *think* (not 100%) that buying from the BR store will give you regular ROW keys.
But that would still be violation of ToS to exploit VPN. (Someone actually living in Brasil and gifting games to people, on the other hand, is not a ToS violation, afaik)
I bought from him a copy of the cave. I had no problem and it was all perfect.

In his steam profile he says he's from Sweden.
He said that he got them from some mom and pop shop in California
