Wow, didn't know people put that much into ME1

Oh, I've no idea if you can squeeze that much out of the game; it's what I lost of Black Flag last year. Needless to say that these days I'm particular about backing up my Uplay game saves.

I just don't see the appeal in watching other people play games when I can play myself.

twitch is dumb.

I can't play Dark Souls with my feet (and an arcade stick), but some weirdo on Twitch can.

I like twitch a lot. It's a nice way to check out games before you buy 'em.

Even ignoring the stellar narrative, which is symbiotic to the gameplay, Spec Ops is a way more competent TPS than, say, the ME series. It's no Vanquish or Max Payne 3 but more than functional.

Steam has 75 million active monthly users as last reported by Valve, not just 75 million users worldwide.

More about selling the personality than actually watching the game.

The gameplay gets them in the door, the personality keeps them coming back.

I don't really watch Twitch streams, I would prefer playing a game.
 
As I said many times earlier, it depends, do you like puzzle games that make you think and rotate things in your head, just to find out that you were wrong all along?
just kidding
it's a nice game, weird but nice, unless you don't like puzzle games at all.

I was a big fan of Echochrome on PS3 so I'm hoping I get the same sort of vibes from this one. Bought, thanks!

Complete strangers or peeps on the internet? Sure I'm not really too bothered about what they're doing.

Friends and family? Nah that's still entertaining as hell. Me and one of my mates played through the better half of Fallout 3 high as kites over the course of one rather hazy weekend when he was back home. Was funny as hell watching each other take it turns and swap over when we copped it, which being in the state we were even in an easy game like FO3 was quite often.

Has anyone even listened to the OSTs given with Groupees bundles? I mean it's nice that they're giving these indie musicians some exposure but I have yet to dl any of those albums outside World 1-2...

Oh, nice. Didn't realize the version of Heileen 3 in the Groupees bundle was the deluxe version.

Now I have access to the "version with OST, wallpapers, chibi, and more"
Heileen 3 Bonus Content includes:
Full game soundtrack in MP3
Wallpapers of all the characters
Chibi used in the game at higher resolution

Excellent.

I just don't see the appeal in watching other people play games when I can play myself.

It's sort of like TV, but live and with people talking over video games.

also answering derExperte's doubts about how cool it is when a cat eats your foot

I remember the first time I went to my high school girlfriend's house and she was introducing me to her pets; we got to one of the cats and she began telling me how much of a dick it was, reeling off a bunch of stories about how it'd viciously attacked friends and family. We were 16 at the time so of course I had to sleep in the spare bed whenever I stayed over there (my parents were more realistic about that) and the aforementioned cat would always jump on the bed and stay there the rest of the night, which petrified me because I was worried any sudden movements would set it off. Eventually I realised it loved me (I've always had an almost Ace Venturaesque rapport with animals for some reason), but even so I never felt entirely comfortable around it, haha.

I'm sure there's a "no heavy petting" joke in there somewhere.

So with Amazon buying Twitch, does my Prime subscription get me anything? Like the ability to not have my saved streams muted despite only playing in-game music?
