I played some rounds of Duck Game and got owned hard. I found out afterwards, the poo icon over their heads means their internet sucks. I already had enough for tonight.

It is goodHas anyone played Raiden IV on Steam and recommend it? It's currently $5 and I'm thinking of getting it. The last Raiden game I played was Raiden Trad on the SNES.
Get raiden 3 as well

Making? It's already done and released on the PS Store. Who knows if it'll show up on Steam.
Still have to play that game. I haven't enjoyed a FPS game in a long time.

Don't mess with orcs. They'll take your stuff and beat you up.
May 9th.
Believe.
No kidding. I'd swear it's been like half a decade since the first one.

That article is wrong, no idea why Klepek just posted it like that. Here's the details: https://forums.totalwar.com/discussion/172345/kholek-suneater-lets-play-plus-early-adopter-news
"Retailers who are currently supporting the pre-order will continue offering the DLC for free into the first week, with the free period coming to an end at 18:00 BST on the 31st May. "
More in the Q&A in that article. Basically not everyone gets the chaos race. Only those who pre-order or order within a week of release from specific retailers. They only extended the chaos race offer by a week, they didn't make it widely available for everyone.
i'm really slow lol
beaten dark souls 3, finally. clock says 70 hours and i've still got a ton of covenant stuff to do (grinding this shit is not great fun!), but ng is all but done
my feelings remain kind of the same, it's a good entry in the series on the gameplay side but it didn't give me closure for the series i wanted out of it and it didn't really stand on its own in the story side like dks2 did, at least not with the endings i got
the level design is definitely on par of demons souls and the better parts of dks1, and i think i enjoyed almost all the boss fights in one way or another, there's a ton of variety and they're all fun to fight because as usual it really pays off to prepare and to learn the patterns and keep calm and be patient and all that. it still feels great to beat a boss that seemed impossible an hour ago, and the dungeons feel like proper labyrinths you get lost in and there's a real tension in running out of flasks and desperately looking for shortcuts in a way that was almost completely missing in dks2
but i still care very little for the story in this game and the way it chooses to reference stuff from the other games without much substance to it is very disappointing. npcs from other games are just "there" without any reason given and you'll revisit locales and find them changed, i guess, but that's about it. you don't get a better sense of understanding of the dark souls universe, you don't feel it finally all comes together, it's just yet another tale of there's some bad dudes that need killing and there's not much more to it. and sadly even as a separate entry it's pretty weak as far as story goes. characters have very few lines of dialogue and they're just not very interesting either way. the riffs off existing characters don't provide anything other than fan service and the actual new characters just aren't memorable. idk what happened, i'm not gonna say dks2 held a candle to dks1's incredible cast, but this is so much worse and it boggles my mind how little they fleshed out these new characters. lothric itself is a remix of lordran and drangleic without much of its own to offer, where in dks1 and dks2 you had a feeling of who gwyn and vendrick were, here there's not even that, and where the big bosses in dks1 got a lot of backstory (witch of izalith, seath) here there's almost nothing and the ones that do have a story are mostly interesting cos they relate in some way to dks1
i think the series deserved a much better sendoff that at least tied some things together and felt like an proper finale. this just feels like more of a bunch and i feel like at this point the whole link the fire/bring the age of darkness thing kind of echoes the dark souls series itself. you can keep rekindling the fire but it's eventually gonna fade and with time it's bit by bit losing its light. the alternative is just bring the whole thing to an end but that leaves us in the unknown and that's pretty scary too, so we keep linking the fire cos that's something we can rely on but at one point it's gotta stop and i totally think this is the game to stop it on
it's time for the kaathe ending damn it
gimme an armored core, i love dark souls, but i think the series deserves its rest
now someone pls tell me where can i find
lautrec's
tbh,it doesn't look as good as the first game.
A small offering will commence in a few hours.
I remember renting the Conan game for 360 several years back. I got all the way to the last boss and rage quit after fucking up the QTE's one too many times.
Recommending Advent Rising is just cruel. Just buy the OST from iTunes, that is genuinly the best part of the game anyway.

He just described how PS3 handles downloads; if you download a 20 GB game, you need 40 GB on your HDD.
So yeah it is both ancient and unefficient.
Your own link has this, which sounds pretty unambiguous.
Participting retailers include Steam and GMG, so I'm not sure what the issue is there. Probably it's just there to clearly excuse trash sites like CD Keys from the offer.
Would it be better if the Chaos Warriors were available for free forever just as a normal part of the game? Of course. But them being free for the first week is certainly a good move, and let's people wait for reviews and impressions before buying it. Strategy games may take a while to properly review, but a week for people to make up their mind is still a good amount of time. We'll know if it's another Rome 2 by then at least.
Yes, but the PS3 doesn't need DOUBLE the space for the patches. Just the installation process for digital downloads.
Must have scared Ubi shitless, the way they acted after the THQ buyout.

Paint It Back is rad, I had a lot of fun with it.
Surprisingly good. I hope it makes it out someday.
Visually it is really good but that little gameplay we saw was nothing special. It reminded me at Dishonored possession mechanic.
There's thousands of retailers/online stores in the world and only some of them are given the pre-order bonus. That's why it sucks, tons of people order from their completely legal, official local store or offer from a similar online store. Not many of those stores have that offer. Just as an example Gigantti (Elgiganten) is a huge retail outlet in the Nordic countries but their offer as of now does not include the extra race. A lot of people are going to miss out on the DLC but Creative Assembly gets celebrated because they extended that limited offer by a week, but didn't extend it to other stores which to me was always the bigger problem. The pre-order bonus remains exclusive, not inclusive. Usually not a huge problem but a complete race is a pretty big thing to miss out on a game that ships with very few races.
Already played SOMA? If not absolutely that even though it's not an arpg.
edit: and beaten
Thanks for all the recommendations, guys!
I haven't played SOMA yet, but it's definitely on my radar now. Wishlisted for the Summer Seal. Stellaris looks damn good too.
I was thinking about downloading Skyforge, but this stuff I'm reading about the installer seeding files in the background when you start Windows and using up bandwidth even when you tell it not to is giving me pause. May try to find a direct download mirror for it somewhere, like I did for the games that used Pando way back when.
I remember really enjoying Advent Rising on the Xbox back in the day. (It sucks that we'll never get a sequel. : / ) Seems I picked it up on Steam, but never got around to installing it. Maybe I ought to do that now...
Mars: War Logs looks interesting too, but I think I might be better off holding out for Technomancer instead. Is Greed: Black Border the one that's kind of like the PSP version of Alien Syndrome?
I also have E.Y.E.: Divine Cybermancy sitting here, which from the reviews I've read looks like it has the potential to be fun in a janky, batshit insane kind of way. Wonder if anyone else here's played it?

Apocalypse in my country is coming..
There's an agenda from the government about blocking Steam from national ISPs. Yes, you're reading it right, blocking Steam. The reason is the classic one, violence in video games. What a bunch of cavemen. They totally ignore ratings system in video games and resort to the easiest method. The parents are equally idiotic as well, giving mature games to their children. They've just released a national statement a few days ago titled '15 violent games that are harmful to your children'. You wouldn't want to know the list, it's hilarious.

Seriously, man, that's horrible. Is Steam aware of this yet and/or are they planning to release the games DRM-free for you guys so you can access them before it's blocked?
tell that to the idiots in saudi arabia,many physical games got rejected only based on the cover art.
and many digital games in PSN or steam are not available on my country that's why i made the NA account my main account.
where do you live?
Yikes, and I thought Brazil's current political situation was bad.
Australia?
Do you live in North Korea or something?
We're still fighting off all the deadly animals, Steam can wait.

Close to LORD's, as in a Muslim-centric country. It's Indonesia.
The rumor is that it'll only affect the state-owned ISP, that the 90% of people here use. It's still an agenda from the national Child Protection Service at this point.

My condolences, would protests work?
i don't think protests will work for something like that in a 3rd world country.
they still think games are for children only.
people will look to you strangely if they seen you holding a game (if you are above 25)
there was some talking in KSA to banned all +17 games from the market.
but the worst part is,when you enter a game shop and you see a kid (8-10 years old ) with his father, and the father says :"do you have car thief game for PS4?"

Hmm may inrecommend in case the worse is happening to buy games thru traders using paypal?
How would that help if the ISP would block access to Steam domain?
