Congrats Sub Zero on Prey, you deserve it!

Foiled again! Congrats Sub Zero. Man I'd love to play that game again....Don't Fear The Reaper playing in the pub (and again on the ship)....good times.

Since I love the game so much, I'm thinking about putting a copy of Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare up for grabs. I know its not Steam, but would people be interested?

I'd be content with a SR3 level game. It was definitely a good game too, had some amazing moments and it was grounded just enough that the wackiness still felt wacky. SR2 wasn't really that laugh out loud funny but it had a lot of wacky moments and the world in general was messed up with stuff like Freckle Bitches and the drive through churches that reduced your wanted level. The real joy of SR2 to me (and SR1 to an extent) was taking over the city and taking out the gangs. I don't know why but it was a simple pleasure I really missed in 4.

i actually thought sr2 was kind of a messed up game

that whole thing of making that guy unwillingly crush his girlfriend to death was fucked up as hell. i remember being pretty shocked about that, it's the one thing i remember the most about it

i really liked the idea of being the usa president in sr4, i thought it took the wackyness from 3 to a new level but one that was just a "natural" (as natural as this nonsense can be) evolution but then the aliens and matrix shit came in and kind of ruined it for me

like i imagine the game just being a huge political campaign where you go to different towns or cities or neighborhoods or whatever and try to get votes by dealing with their problems in the saints way, just fixing public education by teaching kids gang streetsmarts and fixing the economy by killing all bank owners. and like you have this stuck up republican-like old dude running his own campaign with mobsters and shit.

i dunno that sounds a lot more funny to me and it's still insane :I

I don't think that's a good idea, the best thing about SR4 is craziness and overthetopness of it all!

The craziness is the reason I bought SRIV day one and loved it :p

I'm just worried things might feel old pretty soon. SRIV felt fresh because of the superpowers, what will they do in SRV now?

Great giveaway, I also really enjoyed the three or four hours I've played. Not really into Multiplayer-only games tho so I couldn't really dedicate myself to it.

I'm not normally into multiplayer shooters either, I lose interest very quickly with most of them but there's just something about this game. The art style is amazing, you can tell the team had fun with this one. Also free DLC. Almost unheard of for a multiplayer shooter.

I've double dipped so I can have a game with whoever wins. Been playing the shit out of it on PS4.

You know you want to! Go on, do it! I've tried to make it a fair one so gone all out with the No Lurkers, Givers Only and Blacklist rules.

Aw gawd, I'm actually kinda interested in this game, mostly because the original PvZ is one of my favorite games ever, but I promised to myself a lot of stuff regarding this:
1) do not fucking indulge on Popcap after they sold-out to EA;
2) do not fuckign play PvZ 2 because it's pay to win;
3) do not fucking play anything PvZ related anymore because there's a bug on Steam Cloud that if you play the original PvZ it on a Mac, you cannot use the saves on Windows anymore (as the game just crashes on loading);
3) do not fucking open an account on Origin.

DAMN YOU ETHICS

Getting rewarded for removing F2P junk. Sounds pretty fair to me.

I don't want you to go against your morals but it is a genuinely good game. I'm not the biggest EA fan around due to the stunts they've been pulling recently but this game seems to be going against the grain. Extremely polished, free DLC, no pay to win, no Steam cloud (obviously). Can't help with the Origin thing though unfortunately. There's no way around that one. I already had that account from the EA games I'm actually disappointed about buying such as Simcity.

That's like two months of gaming tops except for Baldur's Gate + Dragon Age.

You could pretty much stretch BG and DA at a month a piece easily and that's the rest of year taken up by your (well Grief's) backlog.

I think, straight up with no profit margins, it was $24.xx and $10.xx for the game and season pass respectively -- I was throwing money at my trader while asking if it was locked... turns out the season pass isn't, but the main game is... so you can get the season pass for 50% off currently through the motherland, but the main game? Yeah, good luck on that.

I would buy the GAME version that you mentioned was $30 in a heartbeat... it's why I ran out to amazon and had my hopes dashed into bits against the $60 rocks.

Here's a little tip for you, that price of £29.99 at GAME isn't staying like that for long after release. In fact I'm surprised it hasn't dropped a little already. I got Wolfenstein from the for £21 plus minus some leftover 'reward' credit (I'd hardly call it that as I seldom shop there) it worked at just over £17.50 and before release. About 1 month after they still had stock left of their special Occupied Edition and dropped the base price of the PC version to £21.99 and during a sale a short while after could get another fiver off.

I'm guessing I'll be snagging a copy of Evil Within once it gets to the £18ish mark. Though if the extras are like anything that was included with W:TNO then 'artbook' is putting it lightly. There is a full fat artbook for The Evil Within coming out along side the game if anyone is interested:-

Book Depository - £20.89/&#8364;26.32/$35.79 (be warned they take payment at checkout)
http://www.bookdepository.com/Art-Evil-Within-Bethesda-Games/9781616555702

Amazon UK- £29.99 (was much cheaper and will drop in price after release as with all book preorders)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/161655570X/

Amazon.com - $28.06 (cheapest price at the mo but international postage and import taxes aren't cheap via their couriers)
http://www.amazon.com/dp/161655570X/?tag=neogaf0e-20

I'm back.

I missed you.

Welcome back dude! The feeling's mutual.

I'm not entering giveaways lately, I don't win something since...two weeks? Dunno.
I've entered the megagiveaway the other day, no winning.
Today I tried my luck with King of Fighters, no winning.
Also I totally miss giveaways for things I want becase I need to sleep and work sometimes :D

Only giveaways I have been entering are for Prey coz I'd really like to play that game again some day. Apart from that I've got just about all the games I want for the time being.

Save your ethics for important shit and play a fun game, man.

Hear hear!

I try not to enter giveaways, as I already have games for several lifetimes to play, it's just... sometimes temptation is too much. Probably I need to ask Jasec to teach me how to level up my resistance to temptations. (><)
