That could've been a mistake; VG247's update just says:

I'm talking about this image (first line of the red square):
1393334863-south-park-the-stick-of-truth-review-guide.jpg

but yeah, it would seem weird censoring just console versions, especially if it's a "marketing decision". :(
 
I've been completely sucked into FFXIV. Is this a symptom of something? Should I check for a rash?

My only consolation is that it's on Steam now. Like a doctor prescribing meth.

That's a pretty big Day 1 patch in terms of fixes.
Obsidian even with extra Dev Time still couldn't release a relatively bug free experience.
Oh well it's basically their trademark these days anyway. Rolling Head New Vegas guy agrees.
 
- A mini-game in which the doctor is performing an abortion on the player
- A mini-game in which the player is performing an abortion on the character Randy.

LOL that is just too funny wtf. Kind of dumb for them to censor a South Park game imo. I would think the franchise became popular because of all the obscenity through the years.

They can censor the console version all they want! Thankfully the PC version is left untouched.

I'd expect nothing less from a South Park game. I might actually pick this one up when it goes on sale.
 
Before someone asks, Enhanced Steam is reporting third-party DRM because Squeenix put "Steam" in the third-party DRM field.

Don't know if I can deal with Steam DRM when I'm buying a game on Steam already. :c

Can you gift it if you already have it though? Usually it says that but here it doesn't.

Doesn't say so on the store, but says you get a gift copy on the Square Enix page.
 
I'd be shocked if there were 3 games added. Honestly, 2 would surprise me as well. That bundle is crazy already.

Bastion/LIMBO incoming.
Huh, I would have thought devs would want to be in on the super popular bundles, at least the smaller devs. Maybe "big" indie games like say Papers Please or Spelunky would be saved for a new bundle.
I expect a similar situation to HIB9, where it was a brilliant base bundle, and then 4 less known games were added. Maybe not four, but three wouldn't surprise me.

Wait I got confused Bastion/Limbo were bonuses in that bundle, along with two others, I was thinking of HIB8.

I feel your pain, I'm kind of the same way. The only way to lessen the symptoms is to occasionally take breaks to play other games.

Well, and I quote directly from the HIB11 page: "More games coming soon!", so I wouldn't be all that surprised if there were at least 2 games added. :D

I'd say 4 at this point:
Bastion/Limbo/SMB/Trine
of course.
 
That Dino Crisis thread I made needs to crash and burn.
It's so bad at this point I don't even want to bother with it.
Hopefully my campaign thread to bring DC1 an DC2 to PC fairs better when I finally get that going.
 
Just found like a dozen unredeemed Groupees Steam keys I'd accumulated over the years *shakes head*

At the same time, the (now basically defunct) Green Light Bundle sent me an email this morning that contained my Steam key for Major Mayhem.

Seems like Groupees should really be stepping up their game.

It's a pretty standard MMO, but I can't stop coming back to it. It's the music and the look. They remind me of when I liked Final Fantasy.

It also helps that some of my friends are into it right now.

FF XIV is awesome although I wish more MMO would follow the way set by The Secret World: no levels, same exp gained by each quest and no classes.
 
Anyone who wants to add me on steam can do so.
But because i'm lazy you'll just have to fine me yourself on the steam community page.
Pretty sure im the only Jawmuncher there.
 
There's an RU/CIS-specific sub for The Fall and it's region-locked (onlyallowrunincountries + AllowCrossRegionTradingAndGifting=no). Only Squeenix would region-lock a $10 game. I wonder if the latter flag is now automatically applied to games that have a South American and/or Eastern European sub... Edit: It was added manually 3 hours ago.

At least they didn't wait to completely region lock it till the week before release this time. :\
 
edit: hahaha, what?
Warehouse and Logistics Simulator?
http://store.steampowered.com/app/273940/

From the description:

Are you ready for your new challenge? Get ready to take over the control of your original "Jungheinrich" Forklift! Just the best drivers will level up in the Highscore list. The fastest drivers will receive a special bonus. Huge variety of quests.

This doesn't sound anything like a simulation of the real-life hell I lived through when I worked in a manufacturing warehouse for 3 years.
Also, I'm pretty sure that anyone who has ever operated a forklift will cringe at the fact that this game is rewarding you for driving fast.


Closer...
 
Bundlestars Fusion Bundle
Price: 3.49$/3€
  • Thunder Wolves
  • The Cat Lady
  • Blockland
  • AI War Collection
  • Time Gentlemen Please - Ben There, Dan That
  • Realms of Arkania: Blade of Destiny HD
  • Eryi's Action
  • Luxor Evolved
  • Pressure

Edit: gdi.
 
Heads Up

Eryis Action is worth that price alone. One of my favorite titles of last year.
I also heard the Cat Lady is very good, so I guess those two titles in that bundle make the price worth it.
 
Cat Lady is a fantastic game. One of the best mature horror/adventure games I've ever played. Highly recommended
