I've never seen a cat eat that fast either. Makes me wonder if they starved the poor thing before doing this promo shoot :(

Cats will react like that if you offer them high value treats instead of dry kibble. Just like fast food or cereal commercials, the "kibble" in the video-turned-GIF, maybe some other substance than the retail product being sold to consumers.

Kind of dull/bad game, but it is one step closer to 6. Beyond an exclusivity period on their own thing (does that still exist?) I can't see why it wouldn't come to steam.

damn you are fast (><)
I was about to post this, good I refreshed.

It's not a bad game, but certainly not the best FF, but if it get me FF5-6 on steam, I won't be complaining.

I'm kind of torn. As much as I want to see FF VI on Steam, SE would probably use the abhorrent assets from the recently released mobile port.

Not probably, that's only way we'll get it, I'm sure. I'll take what I get, any FF5-6 on PC are better than none!

Anyone knows if the AND/iOS ports of the game solved the stupid DS restriction for monster mobs (I believe you couldn't have more than 2-3 monsters at once, while the original NES game had up to 9)?

Rollercoaster Tycoon 4 1/10 wha?

And I get cards. Let's blame the bottle of wine in front of me for my loss of rationality and forget what I wrote. 3DS means death.
Still buying, sry.

I should do the single player one day.

You should but coop is imo better than sp, one of the best coop campaigns in the action-puzzle genre together with Lara Croft Guardian of Light.

going through steam games like my beagle goes through bacon, desperately trying to find something that "clicks" to hold me over until DS2 and no luck so far. loaded up:

Delver - cute, reminds me of eldricht, then I died and thought "why am I doing this". which leads us to...

Diehard Dungeon - also cute, also died, also thought "why am I doing this?". I dont think roguelikes are for me, at least not right now >_>

Drakengard - way too complicated for what I want right now, it seems to have stats coming out of its ass, none of which I can be bothered with right now. Also the movement of the character felt...off

Driftmoon - some sort of combination between a adventure game and a action rpg, seems...OK-ish, cleared the first zone, didnt click

the quest continues I guess...

FF3 is a 3d remake, sure, but it very much plays like an NES game. Its story is incredibly simple, the difficulty can be a bit much at times, and it looks pretty rough these days. My understanding is that the textures got a bit of an upgrade after it was ported off of the DS but who knows, it still looks like minecraft textures most of the time.

More importantly for the PC version: you better hope it has a quicksave option either built-in or modded in. The last dungeon is around 3 hours long with no save points anywhere so if you die going up against one of the final bosses (there are at least 5 of them from what I remember) then you're super fucking boned.

So just got a point in Arkham Origins and I can't believe they had the guts to use
Joker as the main villain for the THIRD goddamn time. Thank god he's dead, maybe we'll someone else in Knight. Or maybe they're just going to say "Hey! He wasn't dead! AHAHAH".

Damn, I have no time for that kind of nonsense anymore in my games. I wasn't a fan of the NES FF games but I've no objection to seeing some more jrpg ports on PC - they'll get to the really good stuff eventuallly (I hope.)

So?



Exactly.

I thought you meant "thank god hes dead" in Origins, which as a prequel would mean squat because we know he is in Asylum and City. Although, it still means squat because its the Joker, and hes never truly dead

No I meant "Thanks god he's dead after City". And yeah, that worries me. Batman's is full of iconic villains, but they keep using The Joker...

I thought he was going to be one of the assassins or just a side character, not the main villain, so I wanted to avoid possible spoilers. :lol

Wait the Square-Enix Drakengard? When the hell did this come to steam?
I thought the first game was pretty simple anyway kinda like a DW-esque in some ways. Though I haven't played it in ages.

Thanks Rhaknar for Sugar Cube: Bittersweet Factory. :)

Guys, which drivers do I need to use my Dual Shock 4 and Wii U Pro Controller for my PC?

Lego Star Wars Complete, Lego Indiana Jones, Lego Indiana Jones 2, Lego Batman, Lego Harry Potter - Do these all have proper local co-op on PC? Any other reasons to keep the console versions?
Click to expand...

The first Lego Harry Potter freezes randomly in Windows 7 (and up?) and they hadn't added mid-level save points yet, so it's annoying, but apparently setting the sample rate to less than 48 KHz fixes this. No idea if it happens to the other older games.

Is it just me or has this thread gone really slow in recent days compared to the pace it used to be at? There used to be 10 pages of unread posts when I woke up every morning and now it's at 4 new pages every morning. :)

Nice, will be getting it for Inescapable, which looks awesome.

Those "Lazy Guys" should really start working though, and make a decent bundle page and a account system. Emailing the keys is a stupid and clunky system.

Well, Square wasn't lying when they said they wanted to bring over more Final Fantasy games.

These late ports are nice, but we need FFXV/KH3 day one to improve the health of the platform.

I like the set out though, easy to tell what games have steam/desura keys, if they are greenlit/almost greenlit or going through the process and whether you get a key or not when it is released on steam.
