Resident Evil remake coming to new consoles and PC makes me quite happy. From a design stand point, I still believe it to be one of, if not, the strongest remakes of a game in video games. Never lost the feel or sense of the original game, increased the feel of the story (Lisa alone is worth replaying the game for), and so many subtle and smart changes that many may not notice, but makes for a far better game.
My only disappointment is lack of 21:9.
An amazing giveaway my friend. I don't feel right entering it myself, but I do love to see such kindness in getting someone to play a game they really want to try out and enjoy. Thank you for doing this.

In celebration of Shadownet's return let's try something new
Don't be afraid to ask for something that may be expensive. Just be sure that it is something you really want and plan to play. There is a reason I'm doing the giveaway this way

Games you've given away in the past 3 months.
Edit: If you're asking specifically which games, if you PM modbot with the title "my full loot," it'll list the games you've given away from first to most recent, so the 42 most recent ones are the ones that qualify you for the giveaway.

There's really no good reason to start more than one character in Ff14 unless you have friends in multiple servers that you want to play with. You can level all classes and crafts on the one character
No more PhysX related tears:
Of course, this being PC Gaming (TM), I had to switch to legacy BIOS on the GPU. For some reason system didn't want to boot with the custom MSI BIOS the card defaulted to.
Removed AMD crud from system and launched Batman Oranges to compare.
My previous card (extremely old 6770) could run the game 60 fps in DX9 mode, ~35 in DX11 (while eating ~150 W and sounding like a vacuum cleaner), this one runs in 60 in DX11 with PhysX enabled (and generally is quieter than the CPU fan). Joy.

but....
I tend to agree though. Still bitter I encountered a game breaking bug in Origins that won't let me continue my road to 100% with it...

As the last Opera user I can't imagine you playing anything new. Maybe I should upgrade my vacuum cleaner too, your monologue made me aware of that deafening noise. But on the other hand it is good for winter.

Don't forget Elephant Rider Simulator! I wanna ride that Elephant and bring terror and devastation to Nepindiastan. (No offense)

I still use Opera 12.17 Still the best sessions manager of any browser and without having to use an add-on to do so. Okay sure I lose use of Facebook half the time and Youtube fails to work for me any more, but I can soldier on past it.
Hopefully. As "let's make a NES game, exactly like old NES games", this is a rather good one to own and try out.

They should have just put REmake as it is on Ipad/Android stuff.
Then used that money to fund the RE2make on PC, PS4, and the Xbox one, the all in one entertainment system from Microsoft.

Easy peasy webm craeting in seconds. Seconds.
I am 100% sure making that gif took more time and effort than a webm would.
I'm an altaholic so I got the $15. That said, I'd probably aim for the $12 one until you know if you like it, especially since one character can be every class in the game. The only reason for alts is to see the starting quests for all the cities or for giggles. For example, I have an alt to level beside my wife's character and another one for when I play on the PS4 so I can learn the joystick commands as I level her. Been awhile since I've looked, but I think they just automatically charge based on number of characters so if you stay under the limit it should be the lower cost. Check me on that though. It should tell you for sure on the account page.
Unfortunately, I don't know of any deals right now. However, the first 30 days are free like with most pay MMO's so you won't have to worry about it for a bit if you do sub. Also, I noticed that if you buy it through Steam they really really want you to use Steam to pay for your sub. For various reasons I didn't wanna do that and it was a pain convincing SE to let me use a bloody credit card.
Oh, and I'm not in it, but there is a very active GAF guild on the Ultros server if that matters. I see the GAF tag everywhere and the FF14 thread here is pretty good.
It looks like Origin is giving away another game.
I don't get it, isn't that a lion?

Me too but more and more sites are having problems, either being too slow or not displaying correctly. I don't think I can deal with it much longer and the new Opera is still not an option for a variety of reasons. Firefox with a few extensions is looking better and better.

Here the webm version. It's almost only half the file size and you could add audio as well.
Also, with webm there are no framerate problem, unlike with gifs.

Thanks for all the info. Is this a good deal? I think this is the only one I can find. Also if I buy the Normal Edition is there an in game option to upgrade it to the Collector Edition later? I know Guild Wars 2 has that option.

Please tell me the musician level is as bad as it gets when it comes to gun enemies or that I'm missing something.
I have no issues with the combat but having to use wall cover while fighting ground enemies feels way off

My early impressions. (A minor correction: Pickups don't actually drop, they appear at certain spots in each stage. I was too busy killing things to catch that at first.
)
The link i just posted. Is that redeemable on steam?

I would like to use this occasion to remind everyone that we have an Origin Thread too. It's not monthly though, it's millenial.
That's not bad. Think that's right around what I got mine for on a Steam sale. And yup, can get the collectors edition at any time. I wanna say it's $10.

Garbage dump because it's currently free, and I'm not 100% sure it works. It should, though.
