Definitive edition? :p dunno

That's what I thought, but it makes no sense... TLoU isn't multiplatform and I can't notice the difference when looking at the GIF at this point in time.

I couldn't register it via Modbot because it wouldn't nuke the key... so please let me know if you took it -- it should still be good. Thanks.

woooooohoooo new thread.

I'm taking advantage of the first batch of probably-not-very-constructive content to ask you, fellow steamgaffers, whether I should revert back to my old avatar (after all, real pic jan is almost over)...

...or actually keep this one (a not-terrible picture of me which I'm actually kinda ok with, a rare thing)?

I'm asking here because that's where I spend 98% of my gaf time, but if it's inadequate, mods, my apologies

Just in time for Dark Souls II, Namco Bandai will rename itself to Bandai Namco (it's name in Japan, it saves money on having duplicate business cards).

46 days away.

As much as I like the bug in amber that confuses me so I think it's an alien man with a stick or something equally weird, that is a nice picture of you and does stand out well enough as an avatar.

Watch this space for a giveaway.

In this context I don't think that matters as much as the banderas.gif emulation. Probably could have posted the real deal, but the Joel one has been rather popular. My guess.
 
Here's another giveaway:

Hey Orange, since you put the streaming thread in the OP, then I suggest maybe putting this one in too? I realize a lot of gaffers aren't involved, but if people just want to read some impressions, it's there. It's not just the testers anymore, but I'm putting in dev impressions too if I find any, and I'm going to wait and see how the YT channel situation pans out. Things might speed up finally.

I'm used to you using the top one there, so it would be less confusing for me personally.

For some reason I always thought of your old avatar as Charon the boatman rowing across the Styx. I had no idea that it was supposed to be an insect in amber until KenOD posted just now. ^^;

Both avatars are neat, and I associate both with you at this point, which is what matters. I get a nice mellow vibe from the photo of you - it gives a pleasant, laid-back impression - so if you're happy with it, I'd say to stick with that one.

I'll use this when I inevitably get the game for cheap on summer or winter sale or win it in here.

We need PC date asap. Whether it's few weeks or months after the console versions, a specific release date would help with the wait.

Dark Souls itself seems to be doing better than ever on PC. According to steamcharts, it is averaging much higher player counts than ever before.

I spent 2 minutes making this for you guys. The effort of googling the images and putting them on photoshop and edit the logo a bit. So much effort. LOL

But it's already $14.99 on Gamefly when you use the coupon code GFDJAN25

Cant spend money til summer. Laptop payments and upcoming trip would be in danger if I continue getting games. Otherwise I would have bought it without hesitation. :/

From said it would be 2-3 weeks after the console release date, so likely still within March.

The only thing to disprove that would be the Amazon de date a few months out. Retailers do things like that just to cover their ass in case of delay.

Well actually the insect picture is named Charon on my PC, and I like it because it looks like a man with a stick walking in the fog but then has 4 arms?!
But, people rarely get it, I guess it doesn't really work in such a small format (we had a discussion about it in the thread last year and people only realized what it really was after I posted a larger version.)

So I guess I'll keep using my face for a little while longer then since it's so mellow! Grief you'll just have to get used to it :D Like we got used to your own cool-attitude headphone-sporting glare of judgment! You always look so... leery... do you not believe ;_;
