The thing they did say though was
A. From is doing the PC port. Learned a lot from the first one so PC people aren't going to get screwed on the technical side again.
B. The reason it is coming later is because they are taking the time to do it right.

I really want to play this game and I know it will look amazing on PC, even if just for the 60 FPS goodness, there's no doubt in that. But all the time I will have to wait while the PS360 crowd will be having their fun it's going to be harsh.

I'm more than okay with waiting but waiting too much would be a shame indeed. This is one of those rares game that I really want to get into as soon as possible and have great fun. I wonder if something like April would be wise to expect or even later...

This makes sense.

In general, the amount of time and money people have to spend on entertainment are inversely proportionate. That is to say, that the more money you have to spend on games, the less time you have to play them. That's because the things that get you money tend to take up time. The more time you spend getting money, the more money you'll have, and the less time you'll have. I don't mean this as an absolute description of all people, but this explanation holds true for this fairly large group of people.

Anyone got impressians on octodad only €5 in russia

Here is a couple opposite previews from the review thread.

After watching the trailer, a stealth section sounds hilarious.

I think Splinter Cell or Thief where your movements are precise and calculated, and then an octopus put into that situation flopping around and knocking things over. I much prefer shorter games that know their mechanics and don't overstay their welcome.

The point of the game is that it's a random novelty with often frustrating controls and a weird inclusion of a stealth section. If a reviewer wants to criticise the controls, why not let them? Criticising the game is well within their rights. Who are you to say they're wrong?

Here is my website's review over at MiddleofNowhereGaming (MONG).

Tldr -- I really liked it, $15 is justified for 2-3 hours of non-stop smiling, laughing, and getting the catchy theme music stuck in your head.

What is so bad about it ?

It's a bad splinter cell (and from what I've seen blacklight or w/e looks like more of the same, now with FPS segments!)

I guess it's okay if you don't really want a stealth game, but I'm told it's the hitman absolution equivalent of hitman.

I so far don't mind the new hitman tho :3

Check the OP for the steammover program or something like that. Its what I use and I haven't had any problems with it so far

I think I've played it about 70 times so far, I've only managed to make it about halfway through the game.
 
MGS3 is the best in the series, but you played the worst version!

Only the demo and I barely played it. I didn't even encounter any enemies I played it and dismissed it so quickly. If there was a good port of MGS3 that was a gameplay only version I'd give it a go but after the previous two games I have no desire to suffer any more of Kojima's bollox. If anything I would be more tempted to track down a copy of the GameBoy game and just play the VR missions :p.

Haha, it's a love/hate situation as I said. Were there any story-oriented games you did enjoy though, woo?

Out of the hundreds, if not thousands of games I have played in my life I could probably count them on the fingers of one hand. Most of them make me want to scream frankly.

I thoroughly enjoyed The 39 Steps and Dear Esther but then I don't consider them games but stories with faux gameplay elements :p.

Right, back to XCOM! Got a planet to save! [Don't care!]
 
Do it, at that price you won't regret it!

I played the demo on PS3 for the hour they allotted and it was immediately in my "I want to play that someday". I bought it when it was $15 on steam in anticipation of getting a gaming PC that could run it someday... and then it went free on PS+. Now that I have my gaming PC, I just need to be in the mood for a long action RPG and I'm on board.

For $6? Go buy it.

Just do it! I just did

GAF my favourite enablers! Thanks!

As much as I would like it I can't recommend this game. I played and finished back in the day on the PS3 when I had the console and it felt like a really bland game with a very uninteresting story to be honest. The art style was also not my thing as I prefer something less "cartoon style". The quests are most fetch quests and some of the soundtracks get tiresome after some walking around in the world.

But if you want to really play it and your backlog is getting thinner then go ahead, I know that some people enjoyed it but it was rather boring for me to play until the end (but I did). As for the DLC I didn't play any of it. You can get 8 games, with some variety from the Codemasters bundle if that's to your liking for the very same price.

The backlog, even playing regularly, is only fattening! I wish I could play more!
Obrigado
