Is there any reason to hate on GOG besides this being a steam thread?

I appreciate that Steam's got some competition

It's always been more of a complement to Steam, as it has a bigger catalogue of older games.

 

[madjoki]

Why did Vlad's Modbot giveaway get auto-reposted twice?

He sent message to ModBot twice.

 

[Dsyndrome]

He sent message to ModBot twice.

Would explain all the error messages; thanks.

 

[zkylon]

Still too much for it, especially considering WB's history with dropping the prices on Batman games and the heinous focus on the Batmobile for gameplay purposes.

I GUESS

Yeah, but if it starts being included on graphic cards people will sell it for lower than that

well FUCK ME for trying to suggest something :>

 

[Vlad]

Why did Vlad's Modbot giveaway get auto-reposted twice?

GOG's the place to go for really old / classic games with no DRM. Can't mod BG1 or 2 originals with the Steam versions. GOG's missing the community and achievements, but that should eventually change.

He sent message to ModBot twice.

Ugh, not intentionally. My connection went a little wonky and froze Chrome when I submitted the PM, and I guess it resubmitted when I reloaded the browser.

 

[Turfster]

So uh... if you get a refund during the refund window of a paid mod... you get locked out of the market for a week?

 

[AHA-Lambda]

hey guys

 

[Dsyndrome]

I got it off of Nuuvem, first game I bought off them. Too bad I missed the VPN craze.

 

[Shadownet]

Well thanks GAF

JaseC and the tech support group

for making my decision easier.

Now to figure out which 970 brand to buy. MSI or GIGABYTE.

They recently came out with an MSI 970: 100 Million Edition. It come with a backplate. Not sure how important that feature is.

 

[Salsa]

just now reviving from a saturday night bender, yesterday might as well not have existed

time to play broken age

 

[MadGear]

Chroma 2 cases are going for 1.66$ on the Market. Go play CS:GO and wait for a drop

Also, it has some good looking skins!

http://csgostash.com/img/skins/s553fn.png[/IMG[/QUOTE]

Sadly I never receive a drop in the release week when the cases are actually still worth quite a lot :/
IMO the only good looking skin in that case is the AK47, the other ones look as good as those sports cars decorated with anime characters ... . But I'm not even complaining, since most of the drops usually look like shit I don't feel tempted to open a case myself :)

hey guys

It's good to see that Scott Cawthon took the whole "name your games after the Friday the 13th movies" advice after all.

Please be excited for Five Nights at Freddy's: A New Beginning this holiday season, followed by Five Nights at Freddy's: Freddy Takes Manhattan, expected to release next March.

Same is true for games too. Valve commented that it's not intentional thought, if paid from Steam wallet.

Both are good versions really. You might want to check each vendor though. They have several 970 versions with varying factory overclocks.

It's also best advised to read some specific benchmarks - preferably including both vendors.

My honest tip from my research. MSI.

And yeah I already have Witcher 3. Once I get Batman, unless Mad Max is really good. I'm basically done with my major gaming purchase for the year.

All great games really. I am particular towards Mad Max since Batman/Witcher are more of the same. Mad Max is something new and we know Avalanche knows how to make a fun open-world.

Good. I need me some more lore.

Can we squeeze Freddy lives in there somewhere?

were there no achievements in act 1? can't remember

there's certainly some that seem to indicate you get them during the first act but maybe they werent live or something?..

 

[freshVeggie]

Yes =p

Dang! It's the second time happening this week, hah.

I went EVGA, but a backplate can help temps by 1-2 degrees since it sort of acts like a passive cooler for the vram chips on the back of the card from what I've read.

literally just startin act 2

but it's annoying that achievements don't retroactively unlock now that they're out

no real plans to re-play Act 1, I remember it alright I think

Heat sink. And rigidity, that too, no warping for heavier cards.

But that's six months away! Can we really handle THAT much polish in a Freddie's game?

Sacred 3 so broken, the image won't even load.

Edit:

Aw, its already fixed.

 

[JaseC]

Yeah, that's been an issue since the auto-refund feature went live as the refund counts as topping up your wallet with a new payment method. I think it happens just the once, though.

I dont remember any of the games being buggy.

You would hope so.
Though it's the stupidest bug ever -- Valve doesn't recognize itself as a credible source to people's wallets, so it falls under the blanket of "new funding source" and puts you on lockout. Happened to me during the Summer sale when I refunded my preorder of Dead Rising 3 and got it through other means... I was locked out of the market for the better part of the sale.

 

[TheLetdown]

EVGA has a free backplate incentive going if you purchase from certain retailers, such as Newegg for US.

Too bad Amazon's not included.

You’ve received a gift
from your friend KenOD

The Hatman Shadow Ward

Dear Fellow GAFFER,

Enjoy something that reminds me a lot of the 90s PC horror game, bad voice acting and all, but interesting.

Make sure to look up the real stories it's based on

Thanks man!

 

[Maniac]

Ah, I was wondering what this was.

All of those +1s... Are you prepared?

IF NOT, PREPARE YOUR ANUS

So here's a better look at the Sacred 3 fiasco...

Considering Sacred 2 is dead boring and lame I'm struggling to imagine what kind of beast S3 is.

 

[Knurek]

is every bit as good as Arthea has been saying.

2.5 hours for the whole game (and 100% achievements), come on people, there's no valid excuse not to play it!

 

[derExperte]

Well most disagree and hated 3 because it was nothing like 1 and 2 (and terrible in general).

No money.

Is there anybody who needs Origin HB2 $1 key still? It's probably not worth even to modbot, or is it?

now we need a plan how to get that second part on steam, no?

 

[jaundicejuice]

why all this konami talk all of a sudden?

Console gamers, well largely Metal Gear fans, haven't quite caught on to the fact that Konami is transitioning to be something other than traditional console game developer and publisher. Kinda like how Sega transitioned from being a Japanese console platform holder, developer and publisher to largely being a Western PC and mobile-centric publisher and developer with a side of Sonic here and there.

Yeah, I ordered the GTX 970 SSC from NewEgg, so they added in the backplate to the order for free. Should have it in a few days.

Should be a nice upgrade for me.

 

[someguyinahat]

A backlog that shames me.

 

[Turfster]

Syndicate is leaving Origin on the house tomorrow.
Maybe we'll finally get something new!
... or it'll be another of the humble bundle games that we haven't had yet.

For some reason the user tags on Black Ops III are "Walking Simulator, Pixel Graphics, Point & Click, Dating Sim".

I chuckled.
