For a game that's been out forever there's no gameplay of the update and nothing really saying what the definitive edition entails.
Thanks, I hope the goofy little icons help illustrate my takeaway, lol.
I agree, it was a really nice level. I just wish the other two in the pack weren't so relatively lackluster

La-Mulana and Super Hexagon. La-Mulana was $1.49 before, but that was just to celebrate their Kickstarter for La-Mulana 2 or something. Super Hexagon was less than a dollar before, but it's worth it for the amount of time you'll end up putting into it.
VVVVVV is alright (I don't really like pixel perfect platforming), but it's been $0.49 before, so maybe hold off if you're not sure about it.

I actually read it by Smileys and then angry's lol.
Hope it gets better tomorrow.
As for everyone else This game is great, you need to play it.
I already own Super Hexagon (2hard4me) and VVVVVV (I should go back, gave up at that Veni Vidi Vici part), and I have La Mulana on WiiWare. Thanks!
hmm I want La Mulana and am passing on it becaue it was cheaper before and I'd assumed it was just a steam sale, not something specifically tied to an event.
now I don't know what to do lol
I gave up here too until some poeple (actually, Man God and Bassforever, lol) demanded I get all of the secret doo-dads. You should give it another go!

Woops, I mixed up Pavel with the the Kshatriya Artifact Library level. Pavel was still pretty cool though. I liked the combat encounters in his level a lot.
But yeah my top 3 would be:
1. Kshatriya - great level design
2. Spider Lair - great atmosphere
3. Pavel - great combat scenarios
The rest are just decent.
Oh wow, I was going to start up RAGE today (even despite middling opinions) and I had no idea it had an expansion (or a single dlc, whatever). For some reason I find the expansion listing as advertising "extended play mode" as a little weird. Though I supposed that's what Broken Steel was too.
Well, I guess I'll see how I take to the base game, first.
Edit: Holy fucking jesus christ at this texture pop. Wolfenstein TNO had me somewhat prepared but this is exceedingly worse.

Hint: you should get it. Screw potentially getting it at a lower price!
Yeah Veni Vidi Vici is a pain in the ass. Good luck with that. The only other one that I've played on that list is Fairy Bloom Freesia, which isn't bad either... The enemies are somewhat repetitive, but it's fun and there's a lot of ways to customize how you fight. Kind of reminds me of Tales of Symphonia's battle system a little, except you have to pay to unlock the skills you earn by leveling up. Bosses are fairly tough, story's serviceable, and you can beat it in 2 hours.
But it's been bundled before, so you might just want to wait on that.

Yeah, that DLC was released more than a year after the game. Pretty odd. I'd already sold my PS3 copy of the game before it came out (because I didn't know it was coming out) so I've still never gotten around to playing it.

You guys have probably heard of this, but apparently you can get a free key to an action RPG made by Falcom (Ys series, Trails in the Sky) if you vote it up on Greenlight:

Oh nice, I remember reading about this before. I'll have to check it out at some point, downloading it now.
I can't help but imagine Jase trying to give her a spoonful of cereal, like in those gifs.
Game looks silly and fun. Gave em the OK.

I did this in ACIV... Found that game oddly compelling despite being burned out by the end of the Ezio trilogy and absolutely abhorring the third game with Connor.
I'm actually missing one of those community naval ships... just one! But since they're randomized encounters, I have still been unable to nab it. Sigh.

Decided to play Depression Quest before bed.
It was an interesting experience to say the least. The game definitely gets the job done in teaching you more about depression in what I say is a easier format to digest. I would say it's worth a play just for that fact alone. Shouldn't take you much more than an hour probably less depending on you reading speed.

woohoo!!!
Oh man, that X-ray attack.... I need this gameeee.
I'm gonna try that Depression Quest game later. I feel like i need to play it...
also, just found out about Robin Williams. I loved this guy. Rest in peace.

Hey, i feel bad i haven't been on the past couple of days.
Crawl has seriously been so much fun, i can't wait for more content to slowly be added to the game over the coming months.
Lethal League coming to Steam at the end of the month is amazing, everyone should get that so we can have some awesome Steam matches.
In the meantime, here is a giveaway because i want to.

So I just played a bit of Sleeping Dogs on Xbox, I got it free from the Games with Gold thing. I've got it on Steam too, but it's a bit too much for my laptop.
Well so far, the missions that you have to drive for (the van, the minibus) are just godawful. Those vehicles handle like crap. Anybody who's played, how many more bad missions are there like those? And if anybody's played on both PC and a console, is vehicle control equally bad on both systems?
Everything else is fun, but I really just can't do open world games that have bad vehicle mechanics...

Is it the day I get Bad Rats? *spins the roulette*
Your avatar works so well with that. >.>

Gurumin was great on PSP. It'd be good to have it on Steam - it definitely deserves an upvote.
I turn 23 today! (Aug 12)
In a short while, I'll be taking a flight to the states.
With the horrendous track record of airlines as of late, please wish me luck. Hopefully they've finally found alternative flight paths that avoid both syria and ukraine.
I probably won't be able to respond for a few days until I find wifi or sign up for a mobile data plan.
See ya later steamGaf! Gaming Night Gaf... I'm coming hohoho

It's because it's so much better than III that it feels amazing in comparison.
Happy birthday, and good luck!
Most likely the winter sale.

Save travels, though I believe you'll be just fine. Hope you enjoy your time in the country, happy birthday!
Winter Sale. The Halloween and Autumn Sales aren't so fortunate.

Don't forget to play Air Control before you leave so you know what to do if there is a crisis.

I always think of Saoirse eating string cheese or something similar by looking at your avy.
Only 30 cards left until I can play something again.
Happy birthday! I'm sure you will have a relatively enjoyable and safe flight.

Ys seems pretty neat. So much unskippable dialogue though, it moves too slowly for my liking.

Stuff and thangs.
Happy birthday, man! Have a safe trip, and get in touch when you can!
I think it's just one of the cost descriptions, the other two being "Free" and "Free to Play".

Zoe Quinn (developer of Depression Quest) is a punk developer. She can be grating at times, but I believe we do need more people like her.
We had Phil Fish. And you know how that turned out.
