I like that though. So if you find an amazing part of a planet with crazy fauna, you can say to people "go to this planet and these co-ordinates" and they'll see it themselves.

You know, Elite did basically the same thing in 1984
Not to the same level of sophistication/detail obviously, but enough to drive home the utility of pseudo-random number generators.
Spore's touted species creation did actually pan out, though. It was everything else about the game that sucked.

Awards page is nice, would be nice if there was a count down for when the event starts, Not all Steam users know what PST is. Additionally having games that aren't available to pre-order is a bit silly. I suppose it's a "look how relevant PC is at this awards show" kinda page.

I haven't followed the new Elite, but are they doing anything similar this time round?

Remote Desktop Basketball? What in the hell are you silly Australians doing now?
Sure. David Braben even gave a TED talk about it. Find it here.

So apparently I can only see 5 games on the Steam VGA page because I had the ES "hide search results you own" box checked on my last search.

Awesome I'm gonna watch that in a bit. I really wish I didn't follow the Neuroscience route and instead took the opportunity to go into something like astrophysics. I read more about it than I do my own field. Probably why I'm still unemployed >.<

One of these days I'll get around to playing that Looney Tunes game on Steam.
I just know it

I don't know if my brain can take this much explosion.
We did it guys, we did it!
Frothing demand for me
Get it on steam for Occulus? Or PS4 for morpheus? Literally cannot make a decision right now
Elite on the Acorn Electron was mind blowing at the time. Alright they cheated a little but every system based on procedural geneneration has it's limits before repetition sets in. Even if only one factor repeats a couple of times. NPC's in open world games usually have a set amount of variations before they start repeating. If not the whole character the a combination of components. I wonder what the limits and time frame before No Mans Sky starts to show signs of repetition (it will eventually even if small components at first).
Also is Jase talking to himself?

Still too much talk about procedurally generated universes, and not enough talk about what you will actually do there for my taste. I guess we are finally starting to get some info about the gameplay at least.

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.
Did what it advertised
Both. if this works out, and it looks it will, they've earned it

That's the only thing that worries me as well.

Haha, the plan was to post in no uncertain terms how Steam handles third-party DRM via Family Sharing, but, well, I gave up.
Yes, that's right, I can upload at a greater speed than I can download. Thanks, Telstra.

Yeah, except valve's VGA page shouldn't really be a "search".
Bad valve, bad.
So tell me, what does ES have against Desura?
to be fair, this interview was BTS, and focused on the tech. no doubt we will see gameplay stuff further along during this month
If my memory is correct, I think they have copy pasta'd the page from last year but replaced the background image. A timer would obviously make sense for a stream. In fact, I thought they might have tried something with steam broadcasting and Steam Chat. Guess not for now

That's true. I'm more than willing to wait to see what the gameplay is, but I'm getting antsy precisely because I'm so interested.

What where and more importantly: HOW!?
Also someone posted a thingie where you could save some money on giftcards by buying them from some sort of site, anyone got a link for it? I wanna top-up my wallet for winter.
I'm late, but here.

I am. hopefully its only an hour long. gotta go to sleep at 10pm for work tomorrow.
Most likely.
I'm probably not, been having some awful issue trying to sleep so I'll hopefully be sleeping. If I'm awake I'll check it out though,

I am offline one day and shit goes down up, down and sideways.
-Shadow and Ozi banned. Talked to both. Shame. Weird that it happened much later when things cooled down though >_>
-SFV exclusive for PS4 and PC. Super werid in all ways. Hate bought exclusivity. Only hurts people. At first those who don't own a specific platform. But there's more. I fear that stuff like this perpetually brings more and more exclusivity "deals". As one company feels the need to pamper its owners for having stuff only for their own too. And what's a faster way than outright buying? Whether timed or full. Investing in first-party studios is such a hassle after all. -_-
-There's a Sony event going on today? Where dem links and at what time?
-There's a game award show today too? And it's advertised on steam. Does this mean steam will stream the event? Also, when is it starting?
-Almost forgot. Bad Rats 2?! Damn. Hope it's cheap from the get-go. Ain't gonna pay big bucks just for laughs.
Anyway. Catching up with +20 pages. Prepare for wall of quotes and texts.

they are. but we are being fooled by colored glass like the fanfare or the physical award.
Touche. I can get behind a good train wreck!
These are different and Keighley's own undertaking. It's not on TV so there's no need to do stupid stunts and have c-tier celebs.
i was expecting to add #1 entry to my 2015 game wishlist tonight but then we were notified that Fallout 4 won't be announced today.
All hope was lost, but then the surprise Bad Rats 2 announcement happened. The whole industry was stunned and shocked, and I got my new #1 game. Now to finish the original Bad Rats, I got pretty far already..

Never understood why some of you guys quote from more than a couple pages back.
