Time to go pester GMG then.



Well this could take a long, long time. Where do you want me to start? I'll be back with a synopsis later on ;)

Well, here's what I understand, as simply as I can put some of it:

Mondo works for the hitman agency. His audition/interview was to kill the guy in mission 2.
He found his sidekick on the street and took her in.
Mondo is contracted to kill David, his brother, by a woman from the Moon, because David "stole the moon" form her.
Mondo tries, Mondo somehow fails.
Mondo does extra contracts, as David is using all the wires to try to destroy the earth or something.
Mondo lost his arm to his brother in a dream sequence and was transported by a magical unicorn to the agency office. This is how he got his arm musselback.
Mondo kills David, darkness takes over, he decides the moon is his instead of giving it to the girl.

Uh... none of it really made sense to me.
But even if it was less coherent to Bayonetta, it still felt like it was a better story and was more competently delivered via the medium. :p

If I didn't already have Ys Origin (and still haven't played it yet), the $10 would be perfect.

So, uh... buy it and give the one game you own away via modbot.
You'll make someone's day better, I'm sure.

I wish Isomer had some kind of a tutorial or at least tool tips on the UI. I know it's still early access but it just throws you into the game, and that is not the kind of game that's fun to be thrown into.

Did you check expendabros ? It's a free mashup between broforce and the expendables 3. It's about one hour long and pretty funny ^_^

Turning serious again, I'm reading Sapkowski books and basically there's no track of Triss. She is only mentioned in the first book as a Yennefer's friend, but nothing more.

Having read the whole series, I call bollocks on that. She's one of the main characters in the actual novels (not the short stories collections).
Heck, Geralt even cheats on Yennefer with Triss at one point, which leads to some awkward moments

It's been on sale a ton of times but PixelJunk Shooter is a damn fun game. Considering everything you get, the $6 tier is a good deal.

25 minutes of playtime in PIXELJUNK SHOOTERS and I can already tell it has the same charm and 'easy to pick up and play attitude' of the previous games I played. I will enjoy this very much.

The controls just feel so natural and the artstyle is dope as fuck.

Well, I'm reading the SECOND book, I didn't read all of them.
How many book are there? Here in Italy there are five for now.

Two with short stories that set up the world, and five with the actual saga.

To be honest, I like the first two like a gazilion more times than the other five. Those are still good tho.

Yeah, it's perfect for short 20 minute sessions.

only way I would have got it is if it wasn't! :/

Here's hoping for reasonable BR pricing, assuming ACRTAG isn't employed for good measure.

Edit: Actually, the ROW sub has no list of purchase-restricted countries. If that remains the case, then we'll have a South Park situation on our hands.
 
I jumped for the $10 dollar bundle. Also, as i have had some luck nabbing the games no one wants instead of reaching for the stars and the big giveaways, hopefully someone else too will be just like me and take this wonderful piece of bundle fodder (also its a pretty fun, mindless button masher with price-y cards at the moment soooooo...)

If you like shmups, pay the $4 and get the Astebreed tier. It'll be subsidized a little by the card drops too. They're not animu prices, but it's still something.

I do not really get shmups. I tried playing Jamestown a while back, and it just doesn't do anything for me and I'm really bad at it.

But I thought there were only 2 with short stories...and even then, only one in English, right?

"Droga, z której się nie wraca" is in the third short story book Sapkowski wrote, but the rest of the stories are unrelated/non-canon!

Yep, of the short stories, only The Last Wish is in English. :( Fans have translated the others, though.

It's an awesome game. Tried to get attention for the game when it was 2€ during the summer sale, but few listened. :p

That moment when you finally figure out whats wrong with a PC.
The PC that didn't want to boot a disc for some reason that disc drive was just acting up. Threw in another one and it booted the disc and the Windows 8 installation is finally done.
I've been messing with PCs like this for awhile now that I might just be ready to build my own in the not so distant future.

Are you not english/us? Maybe there are more in Poland that need to be translated?

The sixth novel was released here last year (14 years after the main series ended) and is, by all accounts, a terrible cash grab (prequel story to Blood of Elves, not really adding anything to the main saga).
Just make sure you have a way to read The Swallow's Tower and Lady of the Lake before tackling the main saga - pretty much every volume ends in a cliffhanger.

Witcher is becoming a decent name in America it seems...I don't know why they don't go ahead and get them translated for release over here.

I do hope we get English translations of the last two Witcher/Ciri books soon. In a dream world they'd drop before Witcher 3 comes out, but that's unlikely.
