Although it works out £7 cheaper from Nuuvem, I'm not giving up my physical preorder for the world. That shit will be a collectors item I tell you! A useless collectors item but a very limited one at that.

Yeah like Floppy Disk is collectors item today. At least you will have nice Batman Coaster :D

Oh man, oh man. Hmpf.
 

No one expects the Spanish Inquisition a PC only, early access, hardcore rally sim called Dirt from the Codies.

Be interesting to see where it goes, 36 stages already, so 12 per rally. Obviously there will be some repetition like in real life, but it will be nice to see stages longer that 2-4 mins, hopefully!

ok, I just played it for a bit (with a gamepad) ... it feels EXACTLY like the old Colin McRae games .... it's INCREDIBLY good!!!

ULTRA on 720p, on Youtube, heh.

Well let's be honest judging image quality based off YouTube footage, even if it was 2560x1440 is bloody pointless when the grubby uploader get's it's filthy hands on it and compresses you high bitratre video to macro blocked rubbish.

I know, that's why emphasizing on "ultra" is pointless, no one would have known.

Does this happen to anyone else? Been happening for like the past week or so. Feels like every other page within Steam I try to visit, it fails to load/format (look at the top left) properly. Using the Windows 8.1/Metro skin FWIW.

YES ANNOYING!@

Maybe be a skin issue though.

Hahaha fair enough. Though on a slightly related note, the latest Arkham Knight bullshots are infuriating as with the camera angle used they are not representative of gameplay, they are at least 4 times the resolution they have been posted and the worse thing is have been sharpened to the moon and back that you can see the tell-tell halos around almost every object and character a mile off. Video game promotion really is the new selling Snake Oil. Well I say new but this has been going on for donkeys years.

After how shit Arkham City ran with DX11 features, i'll gladly wait to see what stupid thing is going to ruin everyone's framerate this time around. The only issue i had with Oranges was that i couldn't max out PhysX (which is fine, i've only got one videocard and PhysX almost always looks out of place in max settings anyhow) so at least those Montreal folks can optimize their games.

The YouTube video download plug-in I have installed offers 1080p as an option. Maybe the actual res of the video is above 720p but not close enough to 1080p for YouTube's player.

Yeah, it has 1080p but only at 30fps. Maybe that's why it doesn't show.

Skin probably just needs an update.

Bought Mordor. Man am I impressed with the performance. It's a rock solid 60fps on my i5 2500k @ 4.2, 970. Lots of fun too.

I just couldn't pass up the $25 price tag with full season pass. GTA V is taking a break while I play this gem.
 
Having a 4K TV makes me sad, gsync obviously isn't there so that's weird to get used to compared to my RoG Swift and given I have one 780Ti most modern games are barely playable at 30 FPS. I need that 980Ti now ;-;

My current MP rotation of TF2, GO and Dota 2 is really, really stale right now. Anyone have a recommendations for other MP games with a high skill ceiling, that are relatively polished, that aren't Hearthstone (love the game, hate the grind and/or monetary commitment) or Heroes of the Storm (too Baby Dota for me)?

Quake live, if it's not one of those baby servers.
