Support NeoGAF

[ClassyPenguin]

There's no need to, it's one of the most thoroughly mediocre and forgettable games I've played in a while. It's one of the winter sale games I played when I was banned, maybe later I'll write up some impressions of the games I finished.

This calls for a celebration.

 

[kulapik]

Hmm yes I am ready for some Castlevania. The new previews and videos that recently came out were great. I still think the game is going to be one of the surprises this year. If only Konami would stop screwing around and let us preorder it

on GMG for ~$35

Hey, you're back!

 

[Dimitri2401]

Why did I use my two Amazon EC coupons to buy crap instead of waiting for Enslaved...

 

[morningbus]

Good to see you back Derrick. Hope your time away was good. How are you feeling? Do you need a drink or something to eat? Is the general sensation of warmth and wetness around your genitalia to your liking?

 

[ghostlight_ross]

Lol whoops, I sent off an email with just the three reqs and not the reason why I should be picked, etc.

I can piece together multiple emails if they come from the same address. If not it depends how many applicants we get and what range of specs we have.

[TronLight]

I might be buying a nice home theathre relatively soon so I've got a question: Do PC games generally come with 5.1 and all those high quality audio tracks you can really appreciate on a HT? Or will I be limited to stereo sound?

 

[Stumpokapow]

Well, screen-filling paint doodles and photoshops of featherless japanese dinosaurs taking up a huge portion of my screen isn't what many would consider appropriated workplace usage of the web. A mostly text filled screen, on the other hand, that is definitely much more appropriate.

So yeah. Maybe do these doodles-for-oodles later in the NA day/night/weekends would be appreciated. I like this thread and have contributed a couple of games through modbot so it's not like i'm trying to be a dick. Just making a suggestion : )

If you're in a workplace where you shouldn't be on GAF, don't get on GAF. If you're in a workplace where a site with lots of images gets you in trouble, turn off images. We enforce standard NSFW rules by prohibiting people post nude or gore images or whatever. This is a global forum so 24 hours a day it's somebody's work day--you're literally asking people to screw over guys in your exact position who happen to live on the other side of the world as you. Whether it's drawings for a silly giveaway or screenshots of games or reaction gifs or whatever, people are going to post images in this thread and most other threads. I know you're not being a jerk about this and you're asking nicely, but it really isn't a reasonable request of people.

Remember Me has great art.

...and that is about it, really. Still, Neo Paris looks really good.

Yeah, I wanted MUCH more out of it. The opening sequence was pretty dope as fuck too. The rest of it kinda...I...nah.

Nah breh I already had my daily Apple Jacks. I'm good for a while, thanks though.

edit: Oh shit Enslaved's $2.50? Bought!

 

[TronLight]

Amazon's editor choice + sales coupon.

 

[Caerith]

I've heard that Remember Me improves drastically if you play it in French with subtitles, like how it's recommended to play Metro 2033 in Russian.

Right here. It's $2.50 if you received a coupon from them for their Dec sales.

Thanks for Enslaved, Cade

I probably should have done that. It's been a couple months since I've played it, so I should try it again. Still, no saving the combat

 

[v0rtikal]

Enslaved bought! I might start a giveaway with "Inversion" later on.

So, is Inversion really a turd of a game? I kinda have a soft spot for B-level games but I seea bunch of people giving away their copies of the game.

Region locked key. Americas only.

Not that bad, but people giving away their copies probably has to do more with the steam key that's restricted to American region and they don't want to use VPN to activate it.

beaten like a dead horse.

 

[Aitor]

No problem, enjoy.

I guess I had at least one Amazon coupon left, so:

I'll most likely play Inversion in co-op. I wish Binary Domain had co-op in the campaign too.

Try that Freedom = $1.05. The post will include a link to the image if you are desperate to see what the image was anyway. However, if image free, text only reading is what you desire then that is definitely the way to go. Or just wait until I bring this up in your next yearly review.

Ahh, that makes a ton of sense. I guess ill give it a shot when i get home and see what the deal is.

 

[Servizio]

This is most assuredly cheating.

Meh I wish the 5 dollar codes could stack. I would have enough for this. Too bad.

 

[Caerith]

The combat sounds interesting in theory, and it seems like the sort of thing they could have fixed in a sequel.

Apparently the port of Enslaved is pretty bad, too.

Inversion isn't that bad of a game, gameplay wise, but the story is weak, the end is super lame and it crashed a lot for me on Win7 64-bit (a good experience to teach me not to put up with crash prone games).

 

[Newblade]

There's key for ARMA 2 in this post.

 

[Evrain]

Anyone knows exactly when will EC coupons expire? Sans Dark Souls, obviously.

Yaye. Got it! Thanks!

Co-op is actually a lot of fun. I really enjoyed a second run of the game when my friend finally got a copy.

 

[Caerith]

Dontnod is a French company, so maybe?

 

[Kiru]

I think the coupon got extended for tomorrow so you can grab Dark Souls for $2.50

As this thread could easily be called Dark Souls Announcements & Updates, here's the final blessing by UK dubstep (the good kind) superstar Burial, who's going to delay his new songs because this year he'll be busy playing Dark Souls 2.

[didamangi]

Apparently the port of Enslaved is pretty bad, too.

Only played 90 minutes so far but I can say that it runs smooth enough minus a shadow bug in one of the cutscenes. The game doesn't have many graphic optons but at least I can forced SGSSAA on it.

Movement and combat is a little on the janky side though.

 

[poopninjamvc3mk]

Thanks for Supreme Commander, always wanted to try it after I seen the Xplay review for it in like 08

I know this is a off topic, but i always wondered where mods Fraw the line with Gore .
Now obviously you do not want any real life footage of say Shots of people ripped apart after a car bomb .
But then you see gifs like The head explosion one or any other violent gory death in both movies or games .

So in essence : Gore that involves anything real life like the above example are a big no-no but gore from Movie's or Games are perfectly ok regardless of how extreme it might be .

Have i got this correct ?

People who got Hero Siege on Desura got Steam keys added.

Honestly ? I had fun with Inversion on the 360 and thought it wad a solid rental and a solid coop game. Hell I liked it more than say Gears Of War 3 which I didn't like at all. It's got a few cool gimmicks and as acheapo B movie game I liked it quite a bit. No idea what the PC port is like though.
