This is my first time going through FEAR and i'm having a blast. For a game where you really just going through some hallways and blast dudes in slo-mo. It's staying pretty fun just because of how great the mechanics are. Slo-mo destruction never gets old, and even for such an old game. Seeing all the dust, debris, bullet holes, and blood add a lot to every encounter. Also digging the creepy atmosphere, which is a nice change of pace for a FPS. Hopefully I can finish this tomorrow and start 2 as well. Already beat 3 awhile back with a friend on PS3. Didn't mind it but I can see why a lot of people didn't like it. Since it's really nothing like the original.
Also i'm playing with the mouse and keyboard, more so because I have to. Setting up the controller would have been more of a pain than it would be worth. Don't mind it, but it never fails my left hand always starts to hurts. Mainly my pinky.

The AI really makes the slo-mo/gunplay shine and FEAR is a fantastic game because of it.
Such a classic.
The less anyone says about F3AR the better.

It's a Steam key and in the end it's more than 14% off. PoE costs 45 dollars on Steam, 69.99 reais on Nuuvem and that'd be like 23 dollars or so, almost 50%.
Thanks.
So the key works in US, right? Didn't steam ban cross-region trading not long ago?
Fwiw, on that same post someone asked about Vita support.
Response to Vita question: Sometime in 2015.
Response to PC question: In a month or two.
So I'm guessing PC is coming first, no contractual obligation to bring Vita first.

F.E.A.R. signal? F.E.A.R. signal! Glad to see you're enjoying it, it's a fantastic piece of gaming software. Be sure to listen to every phone call, the plot is really interesting.
Oh, and I just noticed that Morningbus is the new OP. He definitely hates anime, lol
Yeah, the firefights are insanely hectic and the slow-mo mechanic + the shotgun is pretty brutal stuff. The banter between the clones always gave me a chuckle.
Edit: The online portion was fun back in the day, but the PS3 version that I was stuck with didn't have mic support.

It's region free. If nuuvem wouldn't let you check out, use a vpn.
I didn't grow up on isometric RPGs, so there's no nostalgic factor for me(and no rose tinted glasses), but I'm enjoying it immensely.
Sure hope it lives up to the hype. I've waited 2.5 years for this!

Trying to figure out a good multiplayer/co-op game to get my brother for his birthday. Ideas? Divinity: Original Sin would be nice if I could find a good price on two copies.

online or offline co-op?
Guardian of Light or BattleBlock Theater are my picks for co-op.

Preferably online
I think we both have BattleBlock already, but GoL is a good consideration, thanks!

maybe one of these games :
Final Exam
Gauntlet
Torchlight 2
Hammerwatch
Magicka
Castle Crashers

I think you can try Splinter Cell Blacklist for 2 player coop.
I think Resident Evil Revelations would be better.

Quick question about buying and downloading DLC Soundtracks. Do I really have to buy the entire game if I just want to buy the soundtrack? On the store page it says "This content requires the base game Freedom Planet on Steam in order to play." and I'm wondering how literal that is.
That supports no coop except for raid mode I think and personally I liked RE6 more.

Thanks for the suggestions all
No, but on the latest Bombcast Brad mentioned something along the lines of "its a cool deal he has with sony for publicity, and then he'll be putting it out on steam next month."
It could just be an assumption based on how these deals typically are,
edit: actually he totally just said month or two on his site
Oh shit, that's awesome. I could've sworn I read that the PC version would be something like 6 months later. Really glad to hear it's gonna be much sooner than that.
Portal 2 has a fantastic co-op campaign, on top of the also fantastic single player one. Left 4 Dead 2 is a lot of fun too, as is Duke Nukem 3D. SpeedRunners is another solid choice.
HL2 becomes long in the tooth sometime during the water vehicle section. And then again when you have to throw shit to get bugs to fight enemies for you... and probable a few dozen more times in-between. I stopped shortly after I joined up with some rebels in a metro or something.
Huh I didn't feel like that at all. The only part I didn't like was Ravenholme.

Easter shot all my PoE time this weekend. Driving back from Oregon now playing Crisis Core, hopefully get a half hour of Eternity in before bed tonight. Still need to get more than just Eder, Aloth, myself, and the rogue adventurer to tackle the cheating Shades in the Temple of Eothas.

No, and that's by design, so even you can have never heard of them.
See what I did there?
...Nothin'?
...Okay, they'll probably release one when all the episodes are done.

Half-Life 2 is the reason everyone even joined STEAM back in the mid-2000s. Is one of the games at least sitting in your backlog pile?
crazy talk! Attack this little wooden boy/adult woman!
Yes, in my experience with Transistor, Wasteland 2 etc. you need the base game just like any other DLC.

Hah, don't worry, it isn't rude at all! You're just replying to what's relevant
And besides, it is what it is. Nothing to do about it.
I digress, that's really, really nice. I was actually considering getting two Pilot Metropolitans from Massdrop recently, but realised that I really have no use for yet another pen. My current one hasn't seen much use lately, so it would be somewhat pointless.
But my oh my, those... Those are some gorgeous journals. They look great... I should check how much shipping is to Daneland
Yes, the journals look amazing. I really want to start writing a bit everyday. And some math/stats/science because I love graphs.

Nope, don't have it in my library yet. Probably should pick up the series in the next sale?

You're not missing much. It's a very dated, clunky game filled with bothersome environmental puzzles.

Me neither.
It's not like I'm not interested in the game, I just hate FPS games in general so HL2 is never been in my radar. Add 3rd person view and I'm in.
