Congrats to whoever grabs Civ V from that ModBot post above me. I got it a while ago and it's an amazing game. It's terrifying how fast time goes by when you're playing it though, so be careful.

Thanks, Anonymous, for the Gods & Kings DLC. Civilization is... so addictive.

the first game i bought on steam after i got my new computer was civ 5 complete

seeing it on the giveaway list made me smile, as it's such a good game... but these guys are right. i always heard about the "one more turn" syndrome but it wasn't until i spent 10 hours on a hungover sunday playing it that i realized how addictive the game is.

now i gotta go home and get south korea to a science victory!

I hope SpeedRunners gets a lot of new players through the new Humble Weekly, that game is all kinds of awesome! Especially with some friends in front of a TV...

How are the user generated levels? I was interested in Speedrunners but the low amount of levels made me pass in the last sale. I'll definitely pick it up in the Summer Sale though.

I wonder if PDP's 9 billion viewers actually buy games he recommends.

I'm sure at least some small faction of them do. Most could probably care less.

Thanks .

I wouldn't say it's bad, but the expansions definitely improve upon the base game.

That $10 tier is the fucking worst. Probably Archery is probably the worst game I've played in a long time.

Oh, for fuck's sake, one of you dicks took Isaac even though I've posted about looking for a copy! I'm rage quitting this thread.

what is this broforce?
isn't Mercenary Kings the new Metal Slug?

MK doesn't have a lot to do with MS and is considered a minor disappointment. Everyone's on the Broforce-train now.

But what would you do with it? Quit after one minute and whine, that's what.
 
hm. The Iron Golem boss for Sen's Fortress was remarkable easy. Took me twice only because I backrolled off the tower. Anor Londo looks like no fun so far.

I have a new gaming pc, and I'm looking for some games that I can really test my 280x with. Down the line I'm definitely playing The Witcher 2, but now I'm looking for shorter experiences. The Metro games are probably a safe bet, anything else? (no rts please)
 
My first giveaway, here goes. On the off chance that somebody doesn't have this yet, enjoy!

I haven't really tried the user generated levels yet, but i guess there will be lots of good and bad ones like with any user generated content.

And the official levels are more than enough in the beginning, you have to learn them to be really good in the game

I'm kind of annoyed with Mercenaries Kings. I mean, even looking past the lack of [what should be] mandatory game options, the game didn't feel that fun to me. A lot of hunting all around the same set of levels, to find some designated targets, often without indicators of where they're located. That got old and tedious really fast.

Why am I not surprised that a PDP bundle sucks? Everything about that guy sucks. I am seriously ashamed that he's a fellow swede. Now I'm rage quitting the entire internet.

But what would you do with it? Quit after one minute and whine, that's what.
Nonsense. I'm a Meat Boy fan so I would feel obligated to play it for at least 10 minutes, maybe even 15.

First time I fought him I got blasted off the small area. Second time though I just stood between his legs (oooh err!) and hacked away not locked on and even his
grab attack
missed me. Anor Londo is beautiful to look at but hair pullingly frustrating to the impatient.
 
Here's a spare key from the new Humble Weekly Sale:

Loren: Amazon Princess is on sale on Humblebundle.com. I myself forgot to consider grabbing it off Steam since Monday.
While I know of the proposed trick to get the uncensored ver., is the Non-DRM ver. HB offering uncensored?

hmm, have you already played most of the console ports? Games like Bioshock Infinite will look really good at 1080p (or higher) at 60fps, I don't really have much to recommend, been playing nothing but relatively old games lately.

That's what I read literally from day 1 of Early Access onwards, looks like they never managed to make the game fun. And the PS4 version which I could try out is a mess.

Sleeping Dogs looked really damn nice on my computer. Probably the best open-world game I've played graphically.

well fucking great. DS is increasing my patience though, because every time I grow inpatient...i get murdered. Think it's weapon upgrading time...need to figure out where I can get some fire weapons though.

Hahaha luckily the bonfire locations are really good in Anor Londo and on the subject of weapon upgrades you might find a nice surprise whilst you're there. Not going to spoil that hahaha.

Ha!

I honestly thought you had to be a teen or something to get that guy.

Sounds instead like you only have to have bad taste.
 
Got a GTX 770 and an i7 4770k and i was surprised that I couldn't pull 60 fps on Metro 2033 when maxed out at 1080p. That game is a monster even years later.
