That bad? What are the things that you dislike about the game?

You know that many people are also fans of FFX right? Their taste may not coincide with yours so it's good to know what aspects of the game you feel that are inadequate so we can compare it to our criteria. Too linear or something?

Yeah, Final Fantasy X was way too linear. All of the exploration of the previous games in the series was pretty much gone... it's a very different game than the previous final fantasies, most of which I hold to be the higher points of the franchise (FF4, FF6-9).

As I said before, I'll write up all my thoughts on what I don't like about Strider when I finish it later tonight most likely. Quickly: I don't like the way it "feels" in terms of animation and control, combat is meaningless and boring, it's not really challenging, there's not a lot of variety to the stages or the enemies you're hit with, etc.

 

[Cheddahz]

based off Uraizen

Of course

 

[corrosivefrost]

Of course

Hahaha, he likes the game better than I do, I think.

Will Modbot take 2 keys on 1 line? I'm assuming it will, but just wanted to double check with the community

Like:

Syerbia I & II (2 keys will be sent): xxxx-xxxx-xxxx and xxxx-xxxx-xxxx

Yes you can just use this... xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx and put in the post that there are two keys stick together... Easy

Does COD Ghost run like shit for anyone else? like hitches of lag...

Glad I wasn't the only one. At times it actually looks and plays nice, but then like you said the hitches of lag come out of nowhere.

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

So, uh, Indie Gala Interstellar is still claiming one more game will be added at some point. With less than 24 hours remaining, what are the chances of this happening? This is my first indiegala purchase, so I'm just wondering if there's a precedent for this sort of thing.

They add the last game usually very late, last time was about 12 hours before the end I think.

Lol still not fixed. Played at launch and ran like shit.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

not saying this particular title did it(because I don't know let alone care), but some people on greenlight "bribe" people to vote for them and promise to give them a free key if/when it gets greenlit

I just wonder why people vote for obvious mobile-titles. And in Toy Soldiers case at least the iOS-Version is not really beatable without iAP-purchases.
I was wondering the same when that mobile Shooter was greenlit on Steam...

It is just kinda sad to see, because there are other games on GL that show much more promise but somehow lately you see a lot of those "trash"-games greenlit.

I was critising Valve when there was not enough titles greenlit, but right now I think there is too much. They should find a middleground. Because of too much greenlit titles, you kinda see a lot of titles that look like they belong in the same quality-category like Bad Rats and co.

 

[Grampa Simpson]

Upgraded from a 8800GT to a 750 Ti today. Now just waiting for drivers to install.

Happy Happy.

 

[rtcn63]

It's all your faults for not havin' six gigabittles of vram

 

[Grampa Simpson]

I simultaneously increased my capability 5x, while cutting my power usage significantly.

 

[Syphon Filter]

Anyone know of a good computer chair to get? One that does not cost too much.

 

[Dr Stabbingworth]

lol. I was checking out Metacritic and it seems that it wasn't very well received mostly because of the game's "technical issues" (I guess that's one of them haha).

Still worth to try it out, I guess, (and hopefully they've since fixed some of the issues heh)

It has technical issues and the gameplay is bad. Pick up Anodyne or Evilquest instead.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

EDIT: Boy, I'm a fool.

yeah that's my problem with the whole program too

glad it's going away sometime in the future

 

[Grampa Simpson]

Maaaaaan, Steam always downloads stuff so slow for me and I don't know why. I have it set to New York, which is closer to me than Philly is, and my connection is over 20MB/s but Steam only downloads around 2MB/s if I'm lucky. Does anyone have any tips that might help? :/

Are you sure you don't have a 20MegaBit connection? Screenshot of a speedtest maybe?

 

[StAidan]

Ah, got it. Wonder why they wait so long, kind of a strange practice.

 

[Levyne]

Should have used Origin I hear people download at speeds way above what they pay for!

(lol)

 

[The Grim Heaper]

Wow. I'm such an idiot, and I've been for so many years now... a simple google search would have helped. D:

I'm going to be calling my ISP very soon about this little revelation since they promised bytes, not bits.

 

[zeroOman]

(lol)

lol my speed net is 100kb with origin it was 1mb druing titanfall game xDDDD

 

[Levyne]

I still find myself googling bytes and bits sometimes just to make sure I don't get them backwards.

 

[rtcn63]

Yes no

 

[JaseC]

Something called Tom Clancy Daily is in the registry. It has the pic of Blacklist. I hope it doesn't stop at Splinter Cell.

There's also one for Might & Magic and AssCreed.

Come on Ubi...

Read the description on the store page.

Too bad you didn't ask the other day, I actually just ordered one from Staples that had a secret sale for $30. I have no idea why I didn't post it here.

Keep your eyes on slickdeals, companies try to clear out stock constantly it would seem.

 

[Sajjaja]

Yes no

Is that a dildo?

SteamGAF got infected by Milamber's virus pretty hard, I guess?

This exchange validates the 50 post per page crowd.

Steam thread is the best thread.

The chair was $30? Or $30 off? I'm on Slickdeals probably more than GAF, but I didn't catch this sale

I rounded down. It was $35 total with free shipping.

 

[Syphon Filter]

about $40-60

I just saw the ubisoft sale. Do all games require Uplay and if not, do we have a list of the ones that don't require it?

I'm eying up Beyond Good and Evil.

Beyond good and evil doesn't have UPlay. Older ubisoft games don't have uplay

 

[Succinct Verbosity]

Thanks! I'll go buy it then.

As a general rule, every Ubi game from AssCreed 2 onwards requires Uplay. The exceptions to this are most of the Ubi-published titles developed outside of Ubisoft (e.g. the Call of Juarez games).

 

[Rhaknar]

What was tha ubisoft game coming out according to some Australian gaffer? Anno 1854? Anno 1208? What was it...

...JaseeeeeeeeeeC! /shakes fist at air /cries

 

[Atraveller]

I might buy Splinter Cell: Blacklist again on Steam if the price is right.

Haha, I weighed in on that earlier: I think Ubi had planned to get Venice patched up in time for the sale, but obviously it didn't happen.

That's amazing, seems nice from the pic, sad I missed it

 

[corrosivefrost]

Anyone know if Strider has a postgame for cleaning up collectibles?
It's warning me about entering the final area and I want to know if I need to go for the rest of the "collectible" achievements now or not.

Go find the rest.

 

[Htown]

So I hear Strider's a little easy. Should I play on Normal or Hard?

 

[Intheflorsh]

The next few weeks are going to be insane. All of these games releasing around the same time is a dumb idea, right? Wouldn't it make more sense for publishers to put out their game in a time when they aren't competing with 10 other releases (especially when one of them is Titanfall)? I don't get it.
