It would really only be beneficial if there were some other Steam services attached to it like Trading Cards, multiplayer with Steam friends, Steam cloud saves.
Imagine the Android Humble Bundles being redeemable on Steam...
Oh, and more opportunities to increase your library count
Capcom, Okami HD PC Port. pls give.
With "show all text at once" or skip button plz
Bets on more than 10GB of that being prerendered cutscenes?

Will wait for 75% off, game is great, but I've played it 2 or 3 times already.
History suggests that Capcom is unlikely to release the pre-purchase incentives (OST and art book) separately so if you're at all interested I'd snap up the game before release. RE6 is the exception but only because it later received a Complete Pack.

Works awful, very lousy port, poorly optimized. My rig runs Battlefield 3 with no problems, and IMO is a much bigger demanding game than RE. And on RE I had to downscale the resolution to 720p so it didn't run like a powerpoint slideshow presentation.
The Wii version is better in every way.

Do you have Nvidia or AMD?
Not excusing the port at all (it was decent) but I never had any experience like that.

Nvidia.
It's a 550M with 2GB. I know it's for a notebook, but still...

Agreed tenfold. Wii > all
Why? We already have the best DMC games. There are other Capcom games I would prefer.
Petition is still in the works.
I don't really want to go into a debate because I wasn't really serious anyway, but I'd like to hear your arguments... I thought the Wii controls kinda worked against the game's "feel" or "intentions" or whatever

I still need to beat Operation Raccoon City. I played with some friends on Steam and got to the point after you defeat Nemesis.
It's not the worst Resident Evil game I've played, but the second worst (worst for me sticks to Resident Evil Gun Survivor 2).
Its not even the fact it's a pure action-game, or the fact that the level design is kind of meh-ish. Its that the combat just doesn't feel fun or satisfying at all, it is literally boring shooting enemies, and there is barely any feeling to shooting things or getting shot. Everything else is meh, but this core thing makes the whole thing the worst thing a game can be for me, which is boring.
The only kind of fun things in the game for me is being stupid with friends, and its kind of cool seeing old Resident Evil locations and monsters being brought back. But once that novelty wears off, there's really nothing there I could consider enjoyable.
But still need to beat it, and I will, I'm even doing the fucking DLC quests eventually.

The game has all the content missing in the GCN version that was added for the PS2 release and looks better than the PS2 version.
As for the controls, if you feel that the Wiimote controls break the game (which they kinda do) you can play with the GCN controller.

Is there going to be a new Humble Bundle today?

Ahh ok.
But yeah it shouldn't have been running that bad at all.
That was a third party port though so lets just blame that.
Next up: Anno 1404's patch.
Oh I didn't know about the GC controller compatibility! Thanks for the clarification.
(but again I don't actually think the GC version is superior I don't care
)HNNNNG, I was in a tense XCOM moment and when I come back I get hit with a release title that will give me such a great nostalgia. This is amazing, I'm already listening the Saving game music in my head again. Resident Evil 4, oh my, this is great!

Anyone here use a Wiimote as a controller on their PC? I have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing. I can get Windows to see it as a bluetooth device, but I don't know what to do from there. The Wiimote just blinks non-stop, so I assume the PC has to tell it to sync somehow?
All of the guides I've found talk about how to use it with Dolphin, and I'm not trying to use it for emulating something, I just was to use it as a controller.

Wow that was unexpected, did the RE4HD was released for any consoles or is it something new?
And we have all this thanks to Cerny/some MS guy putting x86 in new gen consoles.

I have that same card with my laptop and A) no way youre playing BF3 mazed out and B) yeah, the game runs decently enough. Doesn't run as well as an UE3 game but it's perfectly playable and runs better than the console versions at the same res and with extras thrown on top. You might want to use MSI afterburner to overclock that card if you haven't already, too. It overclocks really well.

Or at least a "turn off the fucking gibberish" option.
It sucks to have to turn off all sound effects because you are being driven insane by the gibberish voices for 40+ hours.
Does it allow for use of a GC controller? If not, then maybe you can get away with "almost every way".
Edit: It has controller support? Okay, you're right.
Because DMC is fucking awesome. That's why.
I'd rebuy DMC HD collection for that again.
Especially if they added in Steamworks.
Speaking of, I'm a bit sour on the RE4 port because I want Capcom to fix the PC games I already bought that will be broken because GFWL is a dying dumpster fire.

I am guessing it's an updated version of the RE4HD released for consoles. It does have new things though, like it will be the first version to run at 60fps, they say they have redone a lot of the visual work and sharpening some old assets, it'll have all previous iterations content, and say it will include things like full-controller and mouse support, Steam Trading Cards, and Leaderboards.
It was probably related to Sega's financial report at the start of 2013. The other Japanese publishers woke up to the ridiculous revenue potential of the platform.
Some have western arms like Square Enix or Capcom, but the Japanese executives didn't care or didn't listen. I call that ignorance.
Could have been Namco's quarterly reports as well.
Because I've heard nothing but terrible things about the DMC3 port, and I've never played the original.
Good to hear about the petition!

Hey, we should keep pushing Capcom and see if we could actually get a Dragon's Dogma port.
I mean, we can dream right

Oh shit, Hitman Contracts is on Steam and they announced Resident Evil 4 / Biohazard 4.

The bright side is that if you haven't played it since Gamecube, there will be new content for you in Ada's Separate Way campaign you unlock after beating the game once, which includes new story, new areas, and a new boss.

Sounds awesome, lets hope this version is good!

Oh man RE4 on Steam. Hype!
Probably.
yeah I've never played the Ada scenario, I might've watched it on youtube but I don't really remember the specifics so maybe not.
The main game is still fresh in my memory though for some reason :lol
I actually cared about the RE plot back in the days, good times!
