Is it only Activision that pulls games from the shop? Who else pulled games besides EA and Sega.

Luckily, season 3 starts next month. So now's the perfect time to marathon the entire series up til now.

Damn, my average complete rate went down to 39%. Can't play more new games until I get that back to 40%.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
No problem! It's something I actually really like doing, as native-speakers take a lot for granted with their choice of idioms.
No, you're an idiom!

Up to 75% on Ubi titles at GMG.
Is Driver infested with DRM crap? Very tempting.

This is a known problem with SPORE (the used code thing). Just submit a support ticket on Origin and they will send you a new key.
Ridiculous that it hasn't bee solved if it's a known issue, but cheers. :/

Indeed, the moment EA takes your money they will be gone before you know it only leaving you with the feeling of regret and self-pity.
Typical EA. At least the support guys were really cool and helpful when I had the same issue

Hooray, I just noticed I'm now a full member. I guess I should probably get an avatar...
man i personally care very little for how dks2's shaders and shit are gonna look but i'm rooting for you since it seems to matter so muchHere is the thing about the Dark Souls Steam Page.
The shots that are up don't have the flat lighting that is in the console version, yet it has the same geometry/textures as the retail console version
hold on to the feeling dude
edit: and as someone that just could simply not believe that from and scamco would release dks1 without resolutions options, i'm unfortunately very pessimistic about dks2. which for me is kind of fine since i'll be prolly turning off them ambient occlusion and stuff
Oh hey me too!

I'm right there with you. I get the feeling that many people ignore that Scamco put out one of the worst ports in years just because the game was good. Seeing how the console versions have turned out and remembering what they did with the PC version of the first game leaves me feeling very uneasy about the new one.
Nah I don't own Betrayer yet, I was wanting to get it on release rather than Early Access so I shall be purchasing it on payday at the end of the month
It apparently consists of 7 sandbox style areas in the full release too. Not sure how they'll tell the story as I've not played any of it yet. Still, I'm looking forward to it due to its style and the pedigree behind it.As for Lichdom it's hard to say at the moment, I'm just interested in how they pull off mage combat if that's what they're concentrating on. Hopefully it'll lead to a nice combination of spells, effects etc.
Finally got to Hell in Spelunky, and oddly I didn't die within mere seconds or arrival. Nay, instead I managed to get all the way to the door and could have left no problem. Not a spinning mace proved a problem nor a bat because strangely I found it to be a less intensive section out of Rogue Legacy.
Now going back a bit to try and claim that fire-protection medal and then falling to my own bombs exploding (t'was attached to a vampire too close to me), that proved my undoing. In some games, you are your own worst enemy.
Edit: Congrats to those who became full members. One step closer to GAF Gold.

nah i think it's the same case of disbelief on how badly from's delivered on the technical side yet again
like i said before in the other thread, i've tuned my expectations to barebones settings (res, aa on-off, ao on-off, "blur" on-off), a high-res textures dlc and that's it. no rebinding keys, no extra options, nothing.
i don't really care too much for any of those things but it'd be nice if the game looked pretty and ran well.

My thoughts on AC4:BF so far, this game sure has a lot of filler in there, all of these "collectibles" and boring side missions that were in past Ubi open world games all made it here. I predict by the year 2030, all of Ubi's triple A releases will morph into the same game.
Watch Dogs is Assassin's Creed 6 mind you.

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.
Only because the actual Assassin's Creed 6 will have a different sub on Steam than Watch Dogs.
It's all about that +1.

Looking forward to 5 minutes of story, 39 hours and 55 minutes of collecting and another 60 hours of optional content...which is also collecting.
Then the game opens up to allow you to start collecting.
It'll be Assassin's Creed VI, Watch_Dogs: Assassin's Creed VI, and Far Assassin's Creed Cry IV, just to mess with lists.

Thanks for the gift, generous steamgaffer
This is why I haven't played 3 or 4 yet.....or so I tell myself.

No problem, I got it from pre-purchasing Deus Ex: The Fall, and everyone needs to experience Deus Ex 1.Thanks for the gift, generous steamgaffer
You beat me to Hell?
Congrats.
But I beat you to Speedlunky.
I do believe you will have me beat on that, and Low Scorer when it comes to it, forever. After years of platformers telling me to collect everything, I simply can't help myself to try and get it all and that takes time.
Luftrausers is out tomorrow. It's so damn good. The combat is incredibly satisfying. It looks simple, but changing out one part in your plane configuration can make a big difference in the way it plays and there are lots of options. The controls feel great and it's fun to pull off maneuvers. It's fun to play for 5 or 30 minutes. Definitely keep an eye on it.

Give it about a year or a year and a half, maybe. I can't see SE releasing X before IX on Steam.

not until 6, 9 and 4 get ported first
If it were releasing on the X360, I'd say so, but as the situation currently stands I wouldn't get your hopes up.
The issue with IX is that there's no pre-existing PC version and, obviously, it wasn't ported to the PCesque Xbox. You could make the argument that porting from the PSX to the PC is a relatively easy undertaking, but you need to keep in mind that this is Squeenix we're talking about. It's a damn shame, too, because IX's art assets are perfectly suited for a higher-res PC port.

There is a chance, since they've stated that they'd like to put more Final Fantasy games on the Steam platform.
However, I suspect it will take them quite a while (a few years, perhaps) to actually make this happen.
Either way, my Vita copy is arriving in the mail tomorrow, totally stoked.

any chance Square Enix won't lock the entire Asia out?

I think it is safe to say they'll port/remake every game to everything at some stage. Just a question of when and how bad the new art is.
Quite jealous as I love the game dearly.

I like the cut of your jib, ser.
It's on my Wishlist.
I'll get it when I can get a deal on it. Or a free code.

Hahaha, yeah, I got burnt out and stopped reading at the beginning of the 5th book though.

The fifth book is kind of lackluster for ASoIaF standards.

Good point. I think it's safe to say that if / when it's eventually re-released for PC, I'll buy it again.
I was on the fence since the Vita version only includes a downloadable copy of X-2, and not a physical cartridge. But in the end I decided I really loved X and only kinda-sorta liked X-2, that it was worth pre-ordering.
I don't really take my PS3 online, or I might have bought both the Vita and PS3 versions just to have the cross save stuff.
