If it's two subs I really think so.
Don't see why they would go through the trouble of two subs since they updated and changed the SF4 sub. Hopefully owners of RE5 get a discount then.

I totally don't mind paying for the upgrade that's for sure. I have wanted to try those DLC levels foreverrrrr.

Did anything else ever come of that Source 2 thing last week? There was all this stuff about it and then it just dropped off the map.

We'll have to see, I'm hopeful as again, the Gold Edition content in RE5 was some of my favorite parts of the game.

I find it interesting the new sub is labelled "Resident Evil 5 (Resident Evil™ 5)" though, but its the one they've been updating. If anything, I could see them bringing RE5 to the RE on Steam naming game they started doing, "Resident Evil 5 / Biohazard 5".

Has any major news happened the past month when I haven't been active on Steam?

Steamworks patch for Dark Souls? NOLF releasing digitally yet?

I see Stem got a makeover?

Have any of the Trails in the Sky patches actually been worthwhile?
It's like I see one every other day.

They've gotten rid of pretty much all the bugs. When I played through it, I only encountered 2 and they've both been patched since. Seems like they also patched in HD assets.

While on the topic of Trails, the second game will be available on Steam soon!
XSEED is working on it now. It is expected to show up on Steam and PSN at the end of 2014, possibly early 2015. It's too early to be able to give a date now.

REmake, MGSV TTP and Ground Zeroes all announced for Steam. REmake will probably be the only one that takes russian keys, but that makes sense because it wouldn't be Resident evil if you didn't need funny keys.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

Excellent news! Although, they could have just put "Maybe 2015... or earlier?" in the release date field and it'd be all good.

Would you say it's more, or less, interactive than Little Inferno?

Less. You can spin and zoom closer to the mountain and there are surprising little bits, like one time I had an invisible sequencer attached to my mountain. But yeah, definitely less hands-on than Little Inferno. But I also think it has more aesthetic value.

People are getting familiar with Hammer2014 and working on Dota content. That's what it was all about. Some (potential/upcoming and current) features have been listed (no more ...loading...), L4D2 S2 references have been found and that's all. It's still alpha and Valve have been careful about dropping future projects hints into it. Gotta wait till the first proper S2 title.

Got to admit, I chuckled at the Rad Bat. That would make an excellent sequel.

My account remains unsullied by the Evil Rodents. Just how I like it.

Was the first image that popped up in a Google Image search. I thought it was quite apt.

I've only ever read amazing things about it, but I couldn't justify grabbing a PS3/360 copy just for a couple levels :(

Thanks to the beauty that is PS+ I didn't have to shell out. It nailed the feel of the first game but with coop that actually added to the game. Some of the puzzle required co-operation and as with the base game was better with a mate than the clunky AI.

Given that the top selling list is based on revenue, and the number of people gifting games as jokes is probably far smaller than you think it is, that should be no surprise.

I'm still surprised, I wouldn't think it would take very much in terms of sales dollars to get on the bottom of the top 100. How many people could be buying Asscreed 4 at full price every hour? 2?

awww shit, i'm bailing on that Star Citizen thread. Those folks have drank that koolaid, and i hope that the game isn't going to end up being a shitty grindfest for the folks who think they can get good ships without dishing out hard cash.

makes no sense to charge premium dollars for nice ships and then make them easy to get in-game. It'll piss off your buyers otherwise, and those dudes aren't throwing serious cash at Star Citizen for you to make those crafts relatively easy to come by.

But i guess i can't properly poop on it till it's out and we can really check out the game's economy so I'm going to keep out until i can back myself up with some space facts.

I'm much less concerned about the potential economy than I am the harsh reality that every grandiose space game like this has failed to live up to these massive plans their Devs insist on having for them. At a certain point good games have to draw the line and stop trying to do absolutely everything. Something about that particular genre seems to attract impossible dreams. Some of us still remember Derek Smart after all. But then again, 50 million is nothing to sneeze at, so maybe they will, time will tell.

Totally not Bad Rats. And the Last Stand is for Spellforce 2 as well, thx Modbot...

Is there a Spellforce 2 bundle or deal somewhere I missed?

And this is why you don't gamble kids. Used my knife profits to buy 40 Operation Breakout cases. The best I get was a Koi shotgun.

£85 worth of stuff down the pan but meh. It's not real money anyway.

Next time I do that I'll stream it so you can have a laugh at me :p

More evidence that Resident Evil 5 is getting a non-GFWL version: The game now has two subs on the Steam Database.

(Here's hoping they're including Gold Edition content)

I'm hoping too. I recently finished RE6 so now I'm craving more action-y Resident Evil.
