Oh man, I hope The Hong Kong Massacre comes to Steam. I may prefer this over Hotline Miami 2.
What does it mean?
It means bad rats has sold 6666 copies to date
Antichrist approves

You just heralded the coming of the AntiGaben !
Instead of giving out - 75%+ discounts on our games He increases sales by 75%+.
YOU HAVE DOOMED US, ATRAVELER .YOU HAVE DOOMED US ALL !
The only thing missing from that is white doves flying around in super slow mo. We need more John Woo moments in gaming.
looks dope but this is blasphemy.
We need Stranglehold on Steam. Make it happen, WB!

Waking up to that Rollercoaster Tycoon news to hear that the PC version has even more social features isn't a good way to wake up :/
I bought it on PS3 when it came out as it was at the time the only way to get Hard Boiled on BluRay (that and it came in a swanky Steelbook) but I'd happily pay up for it to get a Steam release. Not heard anything about the state of the PC port but seeing as it's UE3 it should be in quite good shape.
R.I.P in peace Midway.
Click here to have your friends help you in building this coaster even faster.
I believe Europe is getting that physical edition as well. Won't activate on Steam though.
Is the console implementation the same as the rumored Watch Dogs Uplay integration?
IE just sign in and activate, then you are done?

I would pay $40 for a steam copy of Stranglehold.
It's virtually identical to the Steam integration in Portal 2 PS3. There's an overlay with a few rudimentary features, and you receive Uplay pop-ups when you reach "action" milestones that earn you Upoints, but that's about it. This is how Uplay looks on the PS4 and X1:
Excellent for you.
But Ive been very unlucky with all my Uplay problems so Im not getting the games for PC except for Watch Dogs due to the console downgradeton.BinaryPork2737

It only takes 24 hours to build one coaster by yourself, but with 8 people you can build it in 30 minutes!
I'm completely expecting another Dungeon Keeper situation.

I was pissed when i bought Stranglehold on PS3 because they made it seem like you were getting Hard Boiled in HD but it was just the SD film i believe transcoded to 1080 on a blu-ray disc. I remember a big fuss about it on the AVS forums.
We didn't get a "true" HD Hard Boiled transfer till 2010 from Dragon Dynasty.
One of this months biggest indie game releases. Good luck!

Yeah I'm tempted to get the PC version and flip the uPlay code and get it on Steam (especially after the Blacklist kerfuffle I went through). If you can downsample as much as you can in other UbiArt titles then this game is going to look spectacular on PC. Some of Alo81's Rayman ultra widescreen pics of Rayman Legends are beyond gorgeous.
Yeah all the early BluRay transfers were complete opposite ends of the spectrum. You either got a fully rencoded transfer or a quick dvd hack job, never anything inbetween unless it was a current film.

second the 'no issues with uPlay, yet'. And that includes 40 hours through FarCry3 issue-free.
now all my saves will be deleted

Since i got back into PC gaming last year i haven't had any problems with Uplay or Origin and it baffles me how much hate both get when both seem to work fine.
I don't doubt that some people have problems but it's clear these aren't mega issues that hundreds of thousands or millions of people are having.
Its less about the issues and more about publisher enforcing a completely unnessceary layer of DRM upon us.
The items in both DOTA2 and CS:GO are cosmetic.
You can get some weapons through drops, but the more rare items like the knife sold is from unboxing a crate.
They only are cosmetics.
The original models in Homeworld were pretty blocky and low-poly...I wonder if they'll make things a bit more detailed.The only physical edition for PC i will buy is the Homeworld 1 & 2 HD Collectors Edition with the 12" one.

Of course Playfire does rewards for a game I just 100%'d a week ago.
Oh well. Anyway, I just got my first gaming pc (really a laptop - an ideapad y410p), so I'm excited to be able to play more than just indie games now.

Dev is planning on putting the game on Greenlight. Also he's moving the game to Unity, so it will have more detailed visuals, more particle effects, and be in 3D rather than simply 2D so he'll be able to implement dives, evasive rolls, etc.
I wonder how the devs will feel if it outsells the Sanctum games. Wouldn't surprise me if it already has.
I think they were saying that they put a lot of work into this one including the texture resolution.
Will have to dig up the interview.
Well you still got to sign in to an account. I just want my games dammit!

It's obvious uplay isn't going away anytime soon so why not just deal with it like an adult.

Devil's advocate here, since my uPlay issues have been super light (knock on wood, fingers crossed, and all that) but your statement is a direct echo of the exact sentiments expressed about Games for Windows Live.
Complaining about the issues uPlay has (or GFWL had, for that matter) doesn't make you any less adult-like. It just makes people like you and me more fortunate that either the issues haven't cropped up as much or they aren't as bothersome to us when they do.
I'm really happy that I get to take 'er easy and abide. I'm also really happy that people care enough about the future of PC gaming to demand a higher standard.
I would think the 'adult' thing to do would be discuss the pros and cons of a specific service objectively and come to a conclusion on its worth.
Rumors also point to forced Uplay client integration and management going away, will have to wait and see what happens with Watch Dogs PC.

The thing is, a GFWL and uPlay comparison is never going to be equivalent.
GFWL was a genuine competing service to Steam in its heyday, actively trying to sway developers away from Steamworks and on to GFWL.
uPlay, for however bad it is (and I have complaints, too), is internal to Ubisoft. They aren't looking to expand it beyond their own studios.
It's like equating the Soviet Union and Cuba in the Cold War.

I, er, don't want to know what you'll be doing with that.
I kind of really want that too, even if it means giving money to Gearbox
They do sell other publisher's titles on Uplay.
Not sure how something like Titanfall works though.
They give you an origin key but you must install uplay to get it of course.
