I mean I enjoyed my 100%-ing of Shadow of Mordor enough, and even played AFTER getting 100%, which is super rare. Only even did that in like 1 of the Batman games (which are damn similar so guess I just like that genre). So I'm sure I'll enjoy it

 

[Nillansan]

Oh SHIT, it's Jim "the rap god" Sterling time!

Would be pretty cool if Lashman came back.

 

[Wok]

At least, there is some suspense: will I get nauseated?

Camera has its moments but general very smooth experience and player movement.

My only gripe is the camera. Bloody things got a mind of its own sometimes.

Camera is the worst I've used on a current gen platform.

Platforming segments are mostly trivial, only lended difficulty by the games abyssmal camera.

 

[Chronospherics]

At least, there is some suspense: will I get nauseated?

To clarify my issue, since you quoted me in a thread I didn't post in, the camera acts as a physical entity in yookalaylee's world. It acts as if a physical camera man is following Yooka around, someone who will trip over, get stuck on, and or, collide with anything you allow to get in his path.

Most games either use transparency, move the camera automatically to avoid hazards (even when the player is moving it with the right stick).

It's much worse than what I recall of Banjo Kazooies camera, and far worse than more modern platformers (Super Mario Sunshine for instance, resolved this issue across much more complex environments). I feel that even games like Rayman 2, didn't have this problem, but can't recall offhand.

Impressions in the CSH thread sound pretty glowing. And the game isn't insanely long! Looks like a definite purchase tomorrow.

If it wasn't for Persona 5, I would be playing that game tonight. It looks so damn good.

As soon as I read him describing items as per-encounter Vancian spells I flicked over to Steam or Humble to see if it was already for sale.

If everything I want to play could stop releasing all at once, that would be helpful to my free time.

[v0rtikal]

enhanced steam not working right now?

 

[Dr.Acula]

Just finished ep 3 of Life is Strange.

Fuck this game

Part way through ep 4.

Aaaaaallllright game, two can play at this... game.

 

[inky]

Thanks Mr. Skeletal

 

[Eila]

I have no idea where the mistery giveaway person gets their games, because I never have them.

 

[zkylon]

Battery life though.

i just play it plugged in

is that what u meant?

[someguyinahat]

I have no idea where the mistery giveaway person gets their games, because I never have them.

Lately the mystery games I get are ones I have, and the mystery games I give are taken by people who have them...

So I try to give clues now and/or avoid it altogether. But hey, you're lucky.

 

[Ghazi]

So I just saw that Black Mesa was a part of last month's Humble Monthly, does that mean the game is finally finished? I haven't been keeping up with it.

Not yet. Still no Xen.

 

[Knurek]

A lot of unfair characterizations here. The fact of the matter is, the problem of transferring data from a remote server to a local device remains an essentially unsolved problem in the domain of computer science.

Indeed, some of the greatest minds of our generation, including Andrew Tridgell, Abhay Bhushan, Tim Berners-Lee and Bram Cohen, have all attempted to tackle this problem but as of yet, no practical, reliable mechanism exists for solving the aforementioned problem.

So let's maybe cool it with the Microsoft ridicule, shall we?

Gaming side has its moments.

 

[Nabs]

Leb is the greatest.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

I finished Ending A in Nier. Great game.

Even ACG says The Sexy Brutale is "easily a buy".

The Sexy Brutale Review "Buy, Wait for Sale, Rent, Never Touch?" (9:26)
"Karak reviews The Sexy Brutale out on April 11th for 19.99 on Xbox One, PC, and PS4 PC footage. I am not one of those bigger gami..."

 

[LurkerPrime]

More time in a day. That ought to do it.

Valley is 5.59€ if you already own Slender (who doesn't?).

To clarify my issue, since you quoted me in a thread I didn't post in, the camera acts as a physical entity in yookalaylee's world.

Thanks for clarifying.

Please note that I did not quote you specifically: I quoted all the people saying they have camera issues, because this might be the deal breaker for me (although I won't be able to refund anyway since I bought the game on GameBillet).

 

[Ozium]

this game is actually good and seemingly few around here played it

sad

 

[Durante]

More time in a day. That ought to do it.

This year has been rather ridiculous so far. And that's despite me not even being particularly interested in many games that would be considered "heavy hitters".

 

[Tizoc]

Even ACG says The Sexy Brutale is "easily a buy".

Hmm I've got too much on my plate atm.
GOG is having their summer sale in June and the game will likely go for 10% or 20% off then, and that's when I'll grab it.

 

[derFeef]

Wait, so people really run with the DF+MS agenda?
At least they have a good run.

1. They hate consoles.
2. They love Sony and hate MS.
3. They love MS and hate Sony.
What comes next.

Also I might get addicted to PUBG and I usually never like those games. It's good.

 

[MUnited83]

i've just sold a crapload of cards. Do not disappoint me SEGA, I want to give you this card money today.

Definitely. This is the Year of Everything.

There's even RTSes this year.

Go sell ur tf2 inventpry for some quick bux
You will need the extra money once the vanquish teaser goes up

i don't

not my kind of game yo

 

[InquisitorAles]

I see some of you guys already have fun with that new thread about Crash "exclusivity". It's still funny to see those claims about "this is playstation series, there is no sense in releasing it on other platforms" while last Crash games was multiplatform and released on Xbox and Nintendo consoles. Sony's brand warriors are the worst.

I found this neat little Steam keys activator

https://github.com/colingg/SteamBulkKeyActivator

It's uses AutoHotKey to copy and paste steam keys to activate games on Steam. I haven't tried it myself so I don't know if it actually works

 

[Uzzy]

Are you all hyped to get Bayonetta: Bloody Fate on Steam? I know I am!

 

[Rhaknar]

Planescape Torment and that cool looking XCOM clone Shock Tactics are also out today? Everything was April 11th.

 

[Lanrutcon]

I was going to ask: any word on Shock Tactics? it looks kinda janky, but I'm in the mood for some tactical shooting.

Woah, it seems cool!

Gonna check its source code

 

[Tizoc]

So I decided to finish up Uncharted 2 as part of clearing my backlog. I had stopped playing it some months ago and am now continuing it.
I got bored 10 minuets after the first shoot out, and I seem to have about 5-6 more hours to go.
No wonder I mentally told myself never to play it again after I beat it the first time when it released.
UC2 has good shooting and I'll give them credit for the 'cinematic' stuff but otherwise, it is such a bland uninspired game. Not even the light puzzles and platforming save it.

 

[purseowner]

possible Bayonetta news in one hour...

Nope, just Platinum being tricked by their own countdown clock.

Still a fair few hours to go.

 

[Echoplx]

Nah apparently PG doesn't even know the countdown is broken.

 

[kurahador]

Man...Transformers Devastation is damn awesome. But all those damn collectables and hidden missions really triggered my mild ocd.

There's also this, which uses Steam Client's APIs rather than AHK.

Haven't tried, but seems like better choice

Lmao, that's actually hilarious.

Also at SEGA not fixing that. Even I could pump out a countdown that actually counted down the correct time instead of adjusting per computer system.
