The light theme is fine during the day for me with my room's lighting, but I prefer the dark theme at night.
That reminds me, can anyone explain the differences between JA2 Wildfire and JA2 Gold?
I've only had it stick with 1 and a new offer resets it back. I've canceled it my end so fingers crossed it shifts at yours. Last time this happened to me I was stuck with a notification for about a bloody week before it disappeared.

Have you gotten the Groupees Be Mine bundle yet?
Also, apparently The Darkness 2 is 80% off again for the 2K weekend.
No, I haven't bought any bundles other than humble. hmm, maybe I should get these as well..

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.
Yep, just saw that. Looks like it'll return my own information since it's using my API key to pull the data (even though my profile is private). Hmmm... Well I'll just have to improvise I guess.
i'm already using dark neogaf that's why i find it so bright
there should be a chrome extension that autoloads dark themes for every site/makes em
it's definitely missing some content, but it feels nearly complete. It's an interesting twist on the genre.
Basically you can't screw up. One hit is a KO. If your party is wiped, it's game over and you have to start all over (roguelike elements). I've played through it twice so far, and I died on the third level, and I didn't even make it out of the first level on my second playthrough. It's really challenging, and it's more than just your typical turn-based strategy.

I can get both Eldritch and Metro Last Light Complete for £7 together. Tempting...
Reckon they're worth it?

Got this with last 2K Humble-Bundle and I have been playing it; maybe a less too linear for me, still I think it is worth playing, especially if that cheap.

Do you browse the web in the dark?
I still remember that fateful day when the dark theme didn't work.
more dr3 steam hype!

there's not much light at my place, nope
JA2 gold is the original JA2 and its expansion pack, Unfinished Business. It's good.
Don't know anything about Wildfire.
Wow... I just finished Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance and it was nothing short of fantastic. I can't say I've felt like this with games lately. Revengeance has this "flow" that just makes me excited and giddy like a little kid. Made me constantly think "Did I do that?!".
Wow.
Just wow.

Yeah, I'm with you there. Most games take themselves way too seriously in trying to be badass with flourishing animations and whatnot, it usually just makes me roll my eyes, but I thought Revengeance pulled it off with heart pumping gusto.

Game is good guys.
It has the jawmuncher deal of quality and is guarnteed.
If you don't like it and bought because of my recommendation you'll get a written apology from me.
This is a good deal. I wAs never offered this when I played Dino Crisis 3.

it also doesn't help that lots of games only appear on the coming soon list very late or not at all.
I think half the games releasing in August weren't on the coming soon list in July at all.
Not Valve's fault necessarily of course, given that for a lot of them that information is only available very late or they're 'surprise' releases.

I use a skin for facebook now because changing tabs used to be like:
I need a Facebook one.
It's the only other site at night I use that doesn't have one. Do you use chrome by chance?
Wildfire is a standalone expansion.

Maybe Sep. 2014 or earlier?
I'm getting close to finishing DkS2, i can feel it.
It's been like a year since i last saw Sunshine, need to repair that.

There's a guy running around in his undies with a keg helmet on his head being chased by zombies.
Amazing. And as usual, Mrs. Brute doesn't get it and thinks it looks stupid.
It's a fucking good game, that's for sure. Extremely fast-paced, at least for the kind of games I use to play. One of the best games I've played this year.

Oh man! I just got a 90% off Chicken Shoot Gold coupon after crafting a badge.
Apparently this reviewer got the same coupon:

MGR goes on my okay list. Its good and people should play it. But I sure wasn't head over heels for it.

I have stylish and use a theme. Most are butt ugly, though.
Seriously, I'd rather stare at the sun.

Is it normal that the video quality is abysmal on Twitch? Ain't they the biggest game streaming site? Shameful performance.
About the game. I've never played any Dead Rising game but I am interested in this one. One thing I noticed. When there are zombies very near by often the player doesn't kill them, just walks by them, even when they try to grapple them. This makes me uneasy. I have the urge to never get hit or touched by Zombies/Enemies and not leave anyone alive. In this stream and other gameplay videos it seems like the game is not intended to be played like that. It makes me feel uneasy to see the player getting grappled so often and Zombies walking so close by. It makes me very uneasy, I don't know why?
EDIT: Good Lord, two times dead-last post on the page today! Left to be a forsaken post without any replies..

Okay, thanks you two. I think I'll wait on buying Wildfire with card money for now if it's just a standalone expansion.
Why buy that when you can get multiple copies of Bad Rats for the same price?

I like you so much that I'll forgive that. You are right about 50ppp

I got you bro.
The sheer amount of zombies is a DR staple and one of the reasons I love the series so much. You're never going to kill them all and you're going to get hit or grabbed. You have to plan accordingly to make it through as you go from objective to objective.

You may have your monitor brightness/contrast set too high. Might try calibrating.
What is the purpose for such evil?

He's right about 50 ppp though.
I understand what you mean. I think ultimately it comes down to viewing the game as a GAME, and not as a horror game. In a horror game, you want to keep your distance from zombies, and when anything threatens to attack you, you either run far away or kill it mercilessly.
But Dead Rising is far too goofy to be taken seriously like that. The zombies are far too slow and dumb to really pose a threat. Plus, so many of the weapons and items in the series are designed to murder zombies in comedic ways (or in some cases you put something over their heads and watch them run into things). They are playthings more than they are monsters.
A large volume of zombies can be an obstacle blocking you from getting from point A to B, but even when you push through them, you just have to cut a swath through a horde of zombies as if you were digging a tunnel. You eventually get comfortable just being around them, but just slightly out of reach, especially since they don't even hurt all that much if they grab you. I haven't watched the stream, but I would assume the person in question got a little bit too comfortable.
