He doesn't have a Steam account, though.

I do too. It's somewhere around here collecting dust after I finished A Link Between Worlds.
I doubt he's ever used the 3DS online, haha.

but I don't care for none of that mess.
I got a 3DS XL for A Link Between Worlds (and the satisfy my "Nintendo" wants, but most of the core "Nintendo" games I've played didn't really do much for me though).
Unfortunately, there's nothing on it that interests me at this point. Someday I'll play those Oracle/Seasons Zelda games on it though... and in the meantime, maybe they'll release something else I'm interested in.
Buying games on Steam that you'll never play makes far more sense than buying a 3DS that you'll seldom play.

It was a gift.
None of my Steam monies were sacrificed to acquire it. :lol

I'm not really liking this new system one of my trader's has implemented... he's much slower to fill orders now. :S
At least it was for Blackgate... so I've got a few days at least, I think.

SMT IV needs to be on that list.
Back to Steam games, I launched Dysfunctional Systems for the first time. The main menu music is pretty great.
If Mario Golf goes back to Camelot's RPG GB and GBA ways then I'm there. For now, screw Mario Golf.
I'm on the fence about Blackgate. I like to support belated PC ports (and in fact just bought MoF HD), but just about all the impressions I've come across are largely negative, which is noteworthy in this case since I actually want to play it, so I might wait for a deeper discount.

Well, I almost bought it on Vita a few times... but in HD for $12... I'm in it just for the story alone... but I'm curious to see how well they translated the 3D Arkham mechnics to 2D. The main complaint I saw in the VitaGAF thread was that some of the level design was janky and that it felt empty because enemies didn't respawn so when you're backtracking it gets repetitive.
I'll give it a go at least... being a huge Batman/Arkham fan.
$9.99 and they give you a $5 video games credit when they charge your card. With tax, if you take off the $5 credit, it was like $5.70 for me.
Can't say I've had that issue. Off to google to try to help.
Anything out of the ordinary about your setup?
You meet the min/rec specs?
Yeah I do. I was able to boot it up once but after I changed the settings to max them out it just crashes when I try to start it.

Hahaha. I love my Vita. It's given me countless hours of playtime and lots of amazing games. I spent over 120 hours on Soul Sacrifice alone.
Hmmm, I wonder if there's a config file you can delete...
Buy more Steam games to wash away your pain.
I would recommend skipping Blackgate. I love the Arkham games, it's one of my favorite game series and Batman is my favorite super hero, but I was very disappointed with the 3DS version. It was very dull and the gameplay wasn't very exciting. I gave up after an hour or two. I'll be skipping the PC version.

I always justify in my mind that I will play through these games but I rarely
never

With your previous avatar and your sn, I'm surprised you had to ask
Hmm. I think I want Mirror or Fate, but I can wait for summer or fall.
I just wanted to be sure since I haven't played Mirror of Fate, I played LoS on PS3 and I want to replay it on PC before starting LoS 2
im ready, id like to try that arcade golf game on xone too. Just bought Shadow Warrior im ready to get stoned and stupid.

It loses it's appeal pretty quickly. I played it for a week then forgot about it when I got Pokemon Y.
bit worried about that, but I need an mp shooter after the BF4 fiasco
That's what I took away from the beta experience.
Give me Halo trilogy on Steam and I will be set in that regard.

You played it on 3DS? There's your problem. For once, it wasn't the lead platform. :lol
See above.
I hope it happens for you... but I'll still need a MP shooter to play occasionally.
Most people seem to think highly of Halo 2 for the multi, don't they? I only ever tried that split screen local like Goldeneye 64 and it was my first Halo experience. :lol
Counter-Strike.

Partially.
I had them unlink my Steam account from playfire account (a) and made a new playfire account (b) and linked my Steam account there.
I have screenshots of my rewards that were never credited since December and an open ticket... I'm asking them to credit me but I'm still waiting for a response.

The 3DS is pretty awesome, although I don't own that many 3DS games(All the games I want on the 3DS cost like $60-70, that's so many steam games!) it is pretty good for me since I skipped out on the Nintendo DS generation and I'm now catching up.
I also started playing Driver: San Francisco again, and man, is that game really fun.
The cars control a bit too loose for my liking, but the shift mechanic is amazing, it feels so great to shift into a random car and take down an opponent in a street race.
So good.

Thanks, one of my friends got struck with this problem, too.

I would lie if I said I weren't interested in some of the JRPGs the 3DS got but overall the lineup doesn't interest me as I am not into Nintendo games. The old overpriced hardware combined with still missing essential features doesn't help with a buying decision.

Steam version won't fundamentally change the game though.
A life without Pushmo, Crashmo, more Ace Attorney and Professor Layton, and Shinobi would be a sadder life for me. Not to mention all of the the great DS games I can play like Picross, Slitherlink, and more.
Edit: New page, which means new a suggestion for something on Greenlight.
Lemma, a first-person parkour title.

Actually, Blackgate is the only game I can think of that I would prefer playing on a 3DS. The second screen for the map does help with the atrocious level design.
The game is very mediocre so I wouldn't really recommend getting it.

Lemma is pretty good, I played it a while ago and it has some interesting concepts.
Although the game seems quite different from when I last played it, one of the changes I'm glad happened is that there are no longer any guns in the game, originally you would have to shoot down certain blocks in order to progress, but after some feedback the developer realised that it was a poor choice as it didn't flow well with the parkour and such.
I hope in the final build the movement is fixed though, when I played it there seemed to be a weird delay from when you pressed W and when you started moving forward, it was really off-putting, but I've mentioned that to the developer so hopefully he's fixed it.
But yeah, definitely go vote for it on Steam Greenlight, more first person parkour games like Mirror's Edge, the better.
FFX HD proves to be no less time sink than Civ5, it's a pity, it's not on steam
I missed Half Minute Hero announcement. Must say they should have named it Minute Hero, of Half Minute Hero plus second!
Any new bundles, great deals?
about MRORANGE's post with new thread format: I like all your suggestions, looks good.
stop promoting 3DS folks! I'm not buying it, nonononono

These statements contradict each other.

Regarding the 3DS, everyone should own one imo.
Anyways, it's weird that there's still people complaining about Early Access when there hasn't been that many releases in the last few weeks. I wish Valve would release the custom store fronts so people could move on and complain about that.

I know it's hard to believe, but some people really aren't into Nintento games. As blasphemous as it sounds, Zelda that I like is actually called Alundra and it was on PS lol
The reason I'm not buying 3DS has nothing to do with games, I'm not buying it because it's region locked (it sounds sorta funny now, when publishers region lock stuff on PC left and right too), not interested in 3D and as in all Nintendo handhelds, screens are too small for me. I bought DS and used it very little (or tried to), because it was very hard on my eyes, I mean trying to see what's on those tiny screens.

3DS is the perfect sibling system to have as a PC gamer. Got some gnarly CS:GO/Dota queue waits? Bust that motherfucker out. Steam down for the 4th time today? One click and you're pulling weeds in your town or defaulting some faries or some shit idk if that floats your boat.
I don't play mine for extended periods but I am really glad to have it there.

Wish I had an SP around again. I don't want to break out any of my GBA micros because of the collectible factor.
