It has a monthly fee.

PixelJunk Monsters Ultimate is great. If only a liiiittle bit too slow for my taste (and for a tower defence game), but it compensates by having to pay constant attention to every single tower and all the upgrades required to succeed and perfect score each level.
It's really cool.

Man, I've been trying to avoid purchasing more games (I'm still at the point where I can probably hammer out my backlog in a year or two or nine), but that Humble Bundle...
Also welcome back Grief! Probably late on that, but oh well. I really ought to play some games, but I've been so busy.

Did you play WoW before FFXIV? Just wondering if you enjoyed one more than the other (I've never played either).

So Strider 2morrow @ 10am PST, right?
Yeah I've played WoW before but I didn't really like it.
XIV has a heavier focus on story missions so I kind of enjoyed my time with it a bit more, both games have a similar structure. Both games are more fun with friends and a guild.
I guess I just don't like "WoW clones"

Real question is why we got no Tekken or SoulCalibur on steams.

Fair enough.
A friend of mine switched from WoW to XIV a couple of months ago and I've seen him play some quests in the game. It definitely looks quite story oriented.

The Aqua Kitty coupon has no restrictions, so I'll probably snatch it up if it goes on sale soon.

I wouldn't get your hopes up. The game is two weeks old and the coupon expires in six days.
yeah, the missions are a lot of fun, just sucks that you have to do a bunch of fillers inbetween each one :lol, guess that's just the nature of mmos.

May I have Aqua Kitty coupon?
Yeah, sure. Since you're offline I'll just send you a trade offer.
Thanks. Now to buy some kitty action
Edit: Hmm.. seems to be a bit too expensive, even with the coupon. Been buying too many games lately.
Is there any trader who sells with coupon applied?

It's not very good. It looks nice at times, but some of those levels just drag. Especially the boss fights.
I've had the occasional issue of my TF2 inventory tab disappearing. Kinda makes it hard to sell keys.
It's an euro-platformer, and a pretty good one at that. We here have just different tastes - euroshmups are also widely hated by US players.
You're welcome. Hope you enjoy the game as much as I did.

Man, the Ikaruga port is nice, 360 pad integration, Steam achievements (a lot of people will be happy with all of the ranked and 1cc stuff) and it still looks absolutely badass. Also I am completely terrible at it now, I remember being able to hit every enemy in the first section with ease, now I miss half the enemies and die on the first level boss.
Because it can make your library bigger and your backlogger bigger and you also feel bad since you have so many new games to play
And they are good games.
Euroshmups just stink.
Euro-whatever can be defined by:
a) amazing art assets and music
b) bad to middling level/encounter design
c) game being just too damn long for its own good
d) interesting game design quirks not really being used in an interesting way.
Sure, some people might hate it, but I dig them. Maybe just because I grew up playing them on Amiga, and it's nostalgia talking here, but yea... Give me more of euro-jank.
