Awesomely, it actually organised itself in chronological order, that's...amazing!
I'm now installing Arkham Origins though, and later on once I've finished that I'll start Blackgate up.

I've never played any of the Jagged Alliance games, and I always get so confused about which ones are good and which ones to avoid that I never bother paying attention to the sales. I miss the good old days when sequels had numbers.

Jagged Alliance 2 is recommended. It's a bit more complex than the modern X-COM game though, imho, as far as managing things during the time between missions, and maintaining gear (you have finite ammo). The cover mechanic is streamlined in X-COM as well; in JA2, you have to specify whether to stand, crouch, or prone.

The new ones (Back in Action) seem to have gotten a mixed reception. I can never tell in these cases though, whether if it wasn't called Jagged Alliance: Back in Action, would it have gotten a better reception on its own merits. i.e. if it got panned because it strayed too far from the original formula.

My heart isn't ready for this
 
(1) RadMonkey is, in fact, totally Rad.
(2) Playfire support may get swamped and have some bugs with the rewards program, but they've done right by me!

[Playfire support came through today and added the missing rewards balance I had outstanding... so now I have a 100% working GMG/Playfire Rewards account and I can earn credit for playing my games! It's like a dream come true -- I can subsidize my gaming with... my gaming!]

DG, did horror games make you sadistic or does it come naturally ;_;

Sadistically gracious~ No, but I just love teasing people. Fooling people isn't my style on April Fools, I think it's more fun to tease and leave people in anticipation, but too much teasing without a reward just makes it boring, so make the teasing and anticipation worthwhile, possibly.
 
What skin is that? That grid is stirring new and unknown feelings in me.
Default skin.
I just changed how the grid mode works.

Go to \Steam\resource\layout\gamespage_grid
And then set interior spacing to 00 and GridView.DropShadowLeading to 00 as well.

Then in Steam mess around with the sliders in grid mode, should give the result in my screenshot.
 
Much like Lords of Shadow 2, I'm thinking it will have a simultaneous release. The 2015 release date gives them time to get that going, unlike Ground Zeroes where Konami's push for PC came too late in development.

That would be ideal. Revengeance did have a wait period but it wasn't that bad, and it came with DLC. A surprise Ground Zeroes would not be unwelcome.

Also, re: dice... rolled.

Hello NeoGAF. It's been a while since I've done a give-away. And I probably shouldn't, as I don't have much funds right now, but I have gotten a lot from the topic and felt compelled too, so here we are.

As it's April 1st, I want to put some edge on this giveaway. I have decided on a 6-sided dice roll. You choose a single number, it'll be raffled out in 3 hours, and see what ya get. However, I will say what games I am giving away:

-Resident Evil 4

-Daylight (Pre-Order)

-Final Exam

header_292x136.jpg

-Vanguard Princess

header_292x136.jpg

-Finding Teddy

-Takedown: Red Sabre

I'll note ahead of time this is not the order the games are in below as I took the list above and put them through a randomizor to decide which game went to which dice number, so be weary~

I won't reveal which die is what, but I will include the name of the game before the code for whoever happens to win it. If they want to say here to unravel the mystery, then so be it~

Alright now, happy April fool's, and let's roll the die!

thanks,already finished it two weeks ago.

I guess GMG is the cheapest way to buy Goat Simulator? Any discount code available? What's with the random discount code, any experiences?

Apparently, the vast amount were for -10% off, so if your discount is better than that, praise the sun or an Irish actress.

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
Playfire gave me the reward for starting Escape Goat 2 for the first time twice. Not that i'm complaining.
Profile's "still" not synched properly, looks like I really have to boot up every single game i've ever earned achievements in for them to show up on Playfire.

Even though it's a bit rough around the edges, i'm really liking the service. And it's rewards-system's pretty nice, too. Earning achievements for a bigger Dark Souls II discount is pretty cool. :p

Courtesy of Dusk Golem's dice roll give away, I can reveal what number 9 was and at the same time pay it forward as I already have it. Thanks DG!
