I haven't played Fractions because it seemed to be multiplayer/online only, while I'm mostly a SP type gamer.

Speaking of Papers Please I need to get back on it and complete the story mode,
If I keep having trouble I might just go and throw it on Easy. Since I find the setting and what the game is trying to invoke more than the gamplay itself.
Also to me it seems like a bit of a missed opportunity that you don't interact with your family after work. Think that would have added more to the game rather than just clicking if you want them to have heat and the like.

Thanks for the heads-up.
playing the Ghostbusters game put me in a mood to rewatch the movies. Man I was 5 when the first one came out, no wonder I was terrified of the demon dogs in that
Obligatory :
"Are you a god?"
I must say that most of Papers Please appeal is the constant, psychologically intensive, pressure you're subdued every day.
Switching to easy would probably let you enjoy more the plot (like, I was barely able to read the dialogues and I'm sure I missed lots of interesting stories), but at the cost of enjoying less the game per se.
It's my opinion, of course, but I don't know... It seems like playing Dark Souls on easy: most of the appeal would vanish, wouldn't it?

It was, during the steam sale
It was on multiple sales too (that Bethesda sale at GetGamesGo or was it Gamefly at least), but I decided to skip it because of GFWL, it's the only Fallout I don't own.
I was only interested in one deal of the Amazon Editor's Choice (the XCOM Collection) and they change the price from 10 to 60 dollars. Not cool Amazon. NOT. COOL. The only decent deals are Dead Space 3 and Bioshock Infinite for 5 dollars each (but I already own both) and Enemy Within for 10 (useless without Enemy Unknown)

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
Not really sure how to review it. Mostly because it's reminded me that I don't really care for MMORPGs and it has all the MMORPG things I don't care for; sterile worlds filled with clones, with no way to meaningfully interact with or impact the world in any meaningful sense.
On the other hand it delivers beautifully on the strengths I bought it for in the first place, namely monster designs and lore. And surprisingly, good voice acting.
I wish I lived in an alternate reality where it had been built from the ground up as a single player game. It's like a Western made Shin Megami Tensei.
Not really sure what to say about the gameplay, it's apparently a lot like World of Warcraft. Combat is done with a hotbar of seven active skills and seven passive skills. There are quest lines that require puzzle solving, but I haven't really been blown away by any of them.
PROS: Gorgeous art direction, varied critter design, good writing, good voice acting.
CONS: It's a MMORPG.

Crysis 3 5$ is acceptable too but right now those offers are useless for me.

True. I guess it would depend on how I went about it.
If anything after I finish Valdis i'll try out easy mode and see how I like it.
Hello my dear SteamGAF ! And a happy new year to you all !!!
Sorry if I've been more than sparse these last few weeks, the thread is usually hard to follow because of its speed, but in a Steam sale ? No way !
And my dad got out of the hospital... to re-enter it two days later ! Let's hope it's a remnant of the most shitty 2013 and not a 2014 thing (for whom that might ask, he is well, thank god).
On another note, is this a really bad joke or is this really the Amazon editor's sale were we are meant to spend our coupons ? http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/?docId=1000728511

More items will be added as the sale progresses (it runs until the end of the month, although not all discounts are valid for the full few weeks). I'd use one of my credit batches for Enemy Within if Amazon accepted PayPal.
Fucking hell, dat EA. Editor needs to choose again.
Pre-load data is encrypted and sits in the depotcache folder until release.
It's still 2.25 € @ ubistore (steam key) with '10thanks' promo code. Don't know if it works in US, but it should. If not, ask someone from Europe to buy it for you because you won't find it anywhere cheaper than here.
Yep, same is happening to me.
Gotcha !

The Amazon credit sale is still having problems. Better off waiting until tomorrow.
The X-Com collection for example is supposed to go down in price from it's current 49.99

Tony hasn't flipped the switch yet. They should probably start working later today.
I'm guessing it doesn't, but asking is better. Can that be redeemed on steam or only usable through uplay? Friend I'm trying to convince to buy it wants to know.
Just bought it, registered in steam with no issues.

I think it was similar last year with different publisher's collections being added (and removed?) during the course of the sale. There's still hope, anyways
Last year's was a far better selection even without those 2-3 late additions it got. This one is pretty disappointing.

Yeah i'm holding no hope in this sale being any better.
Yeah, I think last year's Editor's Choice sale was where I picked up Dark Souls, right at the start. Nothing on that level this time around so far.

Has the King Kong game ever gone on sale?
How is it compared to the console ver.?
Also...after buying a few things from steam, it told me there were 2 new items in my inventory. I go there and see it was trying to give me 2 snow globes
They didn't appear in my main inventory though so I assume they were a glitch from Steam.

It was 75% off over at Amazon about a year ago, but other than that, no. I'm hoping King Kong and Tintin eventually follow Anno 1404 to Steam (I mentioned both apps in the e-mail I sent to Ubi about six weeks ago but they're still yet to be touched).
Favourably, assuming the Gamer's Edition re-release (a port of the X360 version; the original release was a lazy "last-gen" port). As I said yesterday (or was it the day before?), I'm surprised the game is still being sold given it's almost a decade old.

King Kong was one of my favorite games last gen.
I'd be all for it if it popped back up on steam. Really liked how they went with immersion with no crosshairs and the like.
I've never played the game.
In fact, I had no idea it was an FPS until just last year, haha.http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-KK/peter-jacksons-king-kong-the-official-game-of-the-movie

It's fantastic, a port of the 360 version which used to be nigh impossible to find on PC until Gamers Gate got a hold of it (all retail versions were the PS2 port). Use FXAA or downsample and it should be all good.

If it pops up on steam you need to.
It's not even very long but it's everything a Movie Licensed Game should be.
Can't blame you for not knowing it was an FPS. Had a few people on release shun the game since they thought you only played as Kong.
More like RIP thesaucetastic.
Nightmare is pretty aptly named if you're not familiar with Oath. One of the few games where I wouldn't recommend starting on the hardest difficulty.

I feel weird admitting this but TF2 is actually a very fun game.
Now how do I make money from it?

It's actually half off on the Uplay store at the moment.

Does it have Uplay DRM or any drm at all?
No idea. Ubishop product pages are useless like that.
