I know about the Steam Stats information that can tell you about players of the mostly top-played games, but is there a way to check out what a specific game's peak is for multiplayer?

Specifically, I used to love Chaos Theory back in the has it been that long are you kidding me that many years ago, and I wouldn't mind just picking it up for a few good nostalgic rounds. Can I see what the peak multiplayer count is for that game?

Thanks for Legendary. Seems interesting but maybe a poor game.

Didn't Sega port Bayonetta to PS3? :lol

Yeah, that's why they said they would never let anybody port their games again.

I just played 17 minutes of Day One: Garry's Incident and I don't know if I can go back. Everything about that game is bad.

MumboJumbo support actually gave me 3 games for free because they couldn't figure out why Angelica Weaver didn't work properly. Very good support.

 

[Anteater]

ToraShiro, Konami Rep, just told me that Kojima Productions is working on the patch for Metal Gear Rising, not Platinum Games.

That is very interesting for a variety of reasons.

I wonder why, maybe the porting team already moved on

to metal gear rising 2

I'm an idiot. I won Thief Gold earlier today (thanks again crazyrabbits) and just realized... I already have it.

So I'm giving it back to GAF.

fixed to reflect my hopes and dreams.

I forgot how much I liked Dark Sector. Good to have it now on PC.

The glaive is a lot of fun to just dork around with. I just pistol+glaive everything to death when possible.

I know the game is so underrated. The Gears of War comparisons were not fair because despite being 3rd person shooters they felt different enough. I would have liked to play the original game tho. That looked dope.

 

[derExperte]

Does the last mission in Metal Slug 3 take forever or does the last mission in Metal Slug 3 take forever? I got there with 10 continues feeling good about myself and then lost the last one during the last boss fight. Or second to last. Or third, who knows. Grrrrr.

PS Ironclad Tactics got DLC. http://store.steampowered.com/app/267570/

I went into it completely blind years after it came out and still enjoyed it (although I'm actually not a fan of Gears of War. The first one that is.)Don't quote me on this, but I saw someone earlier in the thread say that it's enjoyable while you're playing it, but you don't really miss it when you're not. I feel that sums the game up pretty well. Although now I want to reinstall and go slice things up though. The flaming glaive is just so cool.

The last two missions in MS3 blend together for me. I always spend most of them noting the increasing awesome curve and not so much what stage I'm on. But yeah the last one is probably the longest.

There have been loads of visual novels pouring into steam thanks to Greenlight.

I don't want to play any of them but they are there.

Ah thanks, I was worried that it was another case wherein someone used stolen cards to purchase a bundle of keys. But if your games haven't been revoked, then they must be somewhat legitimate.

The market simply isn't there as there is on iOS and Kindle stores, because of course it's such a niche genre even compared to visual novels. I want some as well, but I'm not holding my breath. Especially with the fact most text adventures made now are of such low or directed userbase, paying Valve to use Steam is a losing proposition.

Now as someone said text adventure, I have an excuse to link to a thread supporting one of the best out there. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=509242
A Metroidvania text adventure. Yes.
There is of course Cypher as well which could easily fit on Steam with the amount of presentation that went into on it's website alone. http://www.cabrerabrothers.com/

Yup it's long, pretty long. But all the animation for that final stage is freakin' masterpiece.

I'm shocked I never heard of this, I love me some cyberpunk. I'm guessing putting it on steam would be problematic because of all the feelies they want to sell alongside the game.

I want to try but, man, monthly subscription scares me.

 

[Levyne]

For me I just know I would end up sinking 2000 hours into it before I knew it, just got out of an MMO that was being detrimental to my health. I don't doubt that it is good, though. I see so many people enjoying it, many of which not typically into MMOs.

 

[Rhaknar]

I want to try but, man, monthly subscription scares me.

just think of it as a 15buck game that youll stop when you "finish" (aka get to the lvl cap and finish the story) like any other game.

hell youll probably get more out of those 15 bucks even if you dont resub that 99% of any other 15 buck game you can buy

 

[EdmondD]

I don't know how y'all are making all this money on the market buying/selling Phoenix cases. I make $.50 roughly when I'm even able to get one at all. Which is like every 5 minutes. Not really worth it.

Phoenix cases sell for 5 dollars either you're mistaking it with a different case or you're screwing yourself out of a decent amount of money.

It's awesome that the glaive is in Warframe. Love cutting dudes down with it. Never played Dark Sector but I always wanted to.

I did some digging through the registry and it seems the only Settlers game that is no longer available at all is the original release of Paths to a Kingdom. If I'm feeling lucky one day I might try to wrangle a Steam key out of Ubi.
