I have it on the 360 and the story was really good. I can't play it anymore because the framerate is just dreadful, though maybe it is 60fps on PC.

IMO, the game is not really bad, but the ending is horrible, and ruins the whole experience.
How bad? Is it some common knowledge that it's bad? Metacritic scores in the 80s, Steam positive/negative reviews at 98%/2%. It was on many top 10 lists that year. Personally I loved it and played through it twice. I might rate it equal to Red Dead Redemption, but maybe I shouldn't.

How is Bully PC version? Also, can I play Midnight Club 2 and Manhunt on Win 8.1?
I was in a server with most people (including me) sub 100 ping.

It's great, install it!
Oh man. I don't have a gaming PC yet but I want to chuck money at that Max Payne bundle.
How was the MP3 port on PC, guys?
It's a poor game, but it's a fun experience, if you like the Los Angeles setting in the time period it's in, or if you like film noir stuff. Pretty long game too, although padded out by a lot of driving.
The face tech is nice. The biggest problem with it is that there's no puzzle to any of it, it's literally "find the clues, guess the answers, you progress anyway" kind of deal.

Great.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Good man.

Amazon has it for 73% off

Steam is dead. Long live Origin.
Bully is not bad, but needs some fixes. Controller is recommended, native widescreen resolutions, and there is a frame rate unlocking tool to go above 30 FPS.

Manhunt you need a widescreen patch http://gtaforums.com/topic/547841-gtanfsmpother-widescreen-fixes-pack/

Not 100% but it's as legit as you'll get without being 100% legit. If you know what I mean.
There's an inofficial patch.

Regarding the bolded, I thought it was pretty bad. Controlling the game with a keyboard and mouse is clunky and there are few video options, though fortunately it ran OK on my setup.
On top of those issues I didn't like the game at all, so perhaps that has coloured my opinion on it.
Edit: Steam's downtime seems more common than it used to be. I wonder how many sales are lost during each outage...
Thanks for the impressions on LA noire!
Yeah, I've seen a lot of negativity towards the game, but it might've been about the story since it's pretty story driven.
hmm I guess I'll wait a bit since I still got gta4 and the expansions to go through, they seem hella long too. I don't mind a "non game" as long as the story is worth my time and other aspects are interesting, it's better than having terrible combat as fillers

Alright, thanks.
Not a single game that looks interesting enough for me.

Pros: It works with a controller, runs on Windows 8.1, native widescreen support
Cons: Anytime i set it to 1080p it crashes. the highest res I can set it at is 1600x900. Also, afaik the game is framelocked to 30 fps.

Project Night in the debut bundle right now is a pretty promising old-school survival-horror game currently in Alpha. It's received two new builds since I last played it in November, but I liked what I played and am definitely looking forward to it. It had some great atmosphere, even though it wore its Silent Hill inspiration a bit heavy, especially in the second location.

You know, I might not be the biggest GTA fan, but that complete package for ~6 looks tempting to say the least. Just something about having those games in my library.... oh god I'm turning into one of you !!4!

Oh shit! I'll finally pick up Alpha Protocol. Just wish I hadn't bought Typing of the Dead a while back and never played it

Guess the mystery of this week's weekly Humble is solved.
