You really want MC2 for $9.99? I guess it is alright but wouldn't you want the Codemasters stuff that is available right now instead?NIN90 said:

Yeah . . . this. It might go on sale again later today.Desaparecido said:
I'm downloading the FUEL demo again. I realized that I already had Crysis which has the SecuROM INSTALL limits. So in theory I'm pretty much already infected, and everyone loves Crysis. =P
I don't know the which levels of SecuROM Crysis and FUEL uses, but at least FUEL doesn't seem to have install limits. It sounds like a sparse and unfortunately maybe uncustomizable world, but still interesting for exploring or just random driving. And it's cool if they used satellite data to create it. I'm also interesting in seeing how smooth their seamless streaming is, or if there's major pop-in.

Natural Selection 2 should be getting Steam support soon. From what I understand, they're looking at sending out all alpha updates through it.

I reluctantly purchased the codemasters weekend deal and by reluctantly I mean I couldn't get the paypal information up fast enough...
Is Whispered World really that good? Is it up there with the quality of Machinarium/Grim Fandango/The Longest Journey?
I'm kind of a dick when it comes to adventure games and don't pay over $20 for them even though they've always been my favorite genre and I should support them (and I do! if they are priced affordably). But when I get amazing adventure games like Machinarium for <$20 day1, and the Telltale games for like $6-8 an ep, and games like Cevile, Culpa Innata, Dreamfall, The Void, etc...on steam sales for <$10 it makes $27 look kind of high for an adventure game :X

Eurogamer seemed to despise the main character's voice which really brought down the score. I played the demo and while Sadwick's voice is definitely not great, it's far better than Mona in A Vampyre Story. The localization is pretty decent too.
Hell, I might buy it just for the rad art.

Speaking of A Vampyre Story, why hasn't that hit Steam yet?

Steam ran out of Fuel keys, it said they've requested some more.
hope they get them. I was gonna give this a run when I got home from work. Purchased it last night but went to sleep before running it. If only we didn't need keys for games on steam...LocoMrPollock

Yeah, Sadwick sounds like a bad Adam Sandler impression of The Waterboy.
But otherwise the game seemed pretty good from what I played of the demo. And there is the option of turning the voices off. I just wish it had widescreen support.

Why does EVERY FUCKING GAME have to spend 5 minutes trying to load DirectX? Can't it just check if I've got it and then move on. I must have installed DirectX about 100+ times now!

FUEL is downloading for me, but it still says they're out of keys.

Keep dreaming baby. Maybe you can get together with the guy who *remembers* Max Payne 2 in proper widescreen and make the impossible happen.
I wish both those would happen so goddamn bad.

What's up with Fuel's graphics? I'm running it at 1080p but it looks like the game is being rendered at a much lower resolution and being upscaled.
Seems like a pretty fun game so far, though. Nothing mind-blowing, but I'm liking the gimmick of the huge open world enough to get my $4 worth.

I guess it might be one of the drawbacks to Steam's streamlined install process. Or do some games get around it? I can't remember it doing that for Valve games. But yeah, one of the more irritating things about Steam.speculawyer said:
speculawyer said:
Yeah i get annoyed by this too, but I wonder if its because Steam has a "sandboxed" approach to the games, so each game needs its own directx dll (its particular version) for compatibility (and doesn't use the registry)
I haven't researched this, but this is what ive always assumed.

Fixed. Anyway i wouldn't count on Planescape Torment being released on DD sites anytime soon since it's one of the hardest titles to secure licenses for according to the gog.com guys.

Boy, Beat Hazard is fun - and hard! I had to bump it down to easy to survive a song (I don't play many shmups). Static-X and Liquid Tension Experiment were made for this game. Worth $10.
