Im thinking doing a Capcom x SNK roster style outfits. I already made my own version of Chun Li and I think I got a few characters that can easily be transformed into others.

Anybody really believes that GTAV will run nicely? kindly be honest while answering.
it certainly is, it made me want to install DoA5, but I just can't atm.

I'm pretty sure I could download it faster than install from DVDs these days.
Well I see anime hasn't tore this place apart while I've been away.
Hola SteamGAF! I know some folks like to bang on about there's been no innovation or progress in the gaming GPU market for age but I get the feeling those peeps haven't had to roll back to a card that was strutting its stuff 6-7 years ago when they make that claim. Playing anything released recently with as much as possible toned down or off and running at a quarter native res with no room for proper AA is not a pretty thing.
Still my RMA came back. Well it came back rejected as no fault was found despite an awful lot of pictures, diagnostics and reports from myself detailing the fault. Though when their testing report only says 'The fan seems to be working so we blasted the card with an hours worth of Furmark' I get the feeling that their testing methodology is cavalier and considering the problem illogical too. Still thanks to the wonders of Consumer Contracts Regulations and me being a persistent bastard got a refund in full (well there was no fault found after their 'tests'). So while I'm still without a GPU of note (and will be at least for 3-5 business days while this is processed) by the time I have that sorted my awful internet might have actually preloaded GTAV.
Truth be told I just want to finish off Pillars but I'm at an area where on my hodge podge setup at the mo it runs a liiiittle bit rough.

But would it be as fun? Nothing beats swapping out discs.

They made a point of putting out a 60 FPS trailer so one would imagine it's optimized to be able to hit that consistently.

Me neither, will wait till it's cheap on steam. I really enjoyed the PS3 version, but I'm in not in a desperate rush to play it again.
Also Invisible Inc. from Klei will be coming out of early Access some time in May. It's great fun so far. Futuristic Spy X-COM like.

As I have said before after MP3 and all the delays i'm not too worried about performance.

I suspect it will launch at US$19.99, up from US$15.99. Probably the same in Euros.
Well technically Spring 2015 runs until June 21st and I'd imagine that would be closer to the date it might drop. It's quite a FF filed year with Type-0 last month, FF X/X-2 HDier editon out in May, XIV Heavnsward in June, Record Keeper as well last month.

The real question is:
Will they release a FFXIII trilogy bundle on steam? >_<

Ragnarok gets a pass though.
I know I asked this before but was wondering would it just be better & faster to delete my GTAV preload and download it again on release?
I ask this cause it is on my SSD right now. I don't want that many writes and the SSD is 256gb. When the de-encypting happens which uses another 60GB I will be fine with 5GB to spare. I have one other game on it. I run steam and majority of my games off my HDD. I can download GTAV in just two hours and I can assume decrypting will take roughly the same.
Or is there a better trick?

Goes out to everyone. I don't really care was just remembering awhile back. Just seems like there has been an influx as of late for some reason.

I remember when GAF had animated avatars. Bad times.
it really had? I don't remember, tbh
That was a looooong time ago. Supposedly the reason why its not allowed now is because the servers can't handle it.
It smells like a bullshit excuse, but then again gaf goes down for the smallest of things.

It's the first question in the FAQ of the OP. Go check it out!
about 10 months ago or so
Unless you've got an ancient SSD I wouldn't worry about unpack times or writes. 60gbs of FFXIII took me less than 10 mins to unpack on an 840 Pro. 120gb of writes is nothing for current NAND/TLC chips, Samsung give a figure of something around 100tb of lifetime writes and that's being very generous. I think Anandtech or someone similar did or are still conducting a torture test to see how much they can get out of a selection of SSD's and it's an awful lot more than what manufacturers state.
Priorities in my top 3.
There's a third DLC pack? I'll have to go add it to my wishlist.
Edit: Oh, there are 4, but only 2 show up under the DOA page or using the DLC link in the library. Weird. Well, added the other 2 to the list.

Stealth Inc 2 is out but not on Steam?

I'm not sure I wanna know... probably it's for the best to have at least tiny whiny trust in humanity than none. Don't you think?
steam is among platforms, do you mean it's a lie?
I'd be curious as well.
It's 240,96 for the 4 packs. I can't wait for the 75% off sale.

No, I mean it isn't available directly through Steam. Maybe later today. I predict a terrible flop, no preorder, no page before release, no buzz. That's not how you do it.
Same reason it was Wii U exclusive at launch. They think it's a way for them to stand out. If you go at the Humble Store home page they have a pretty good spot there.

It's Humble Bundle exclusive at PC launchUntil early May.
That makes no sense
Curve Digital makes some really strange business decisions

I imagine they don't like sales, exposure, profit etc...
Humble must have thrown some serious cash at them even with the commission rate difference between the 2 stores.
Edit: Humble haven't even sent an email out about it. Completely stealth release.
The strange thing is it's not even doing very well on the Humble Store - it's the 27th top seller there. Stealth release indeed.
Freedom = $1.05

Everything about how Stealth Inc/Bastard 2 has been distributed feels like some sort of experiment in how to sell as many copies of your game on every platform before coming onto steam. It's been bizarre.

I'll be surprised if they sell more than 500. But hey, someone's gotta try it I guess. At least once. The one thing they have going for them is that May isn't too crowded with of releases so they should still get some exposure on Steam.
