Man, that bundlestars bundle is great. I didn't own a single one of them.

 

[AsfaeksBR]

Really undecided over Lichdom: Battlemage.
The game interests me, but I don't know if it will run well on my laptop (i5 3210m, GT640m, 4gb ram, runs Crysis Warhead fairly well).

Is it worth it? Will it run?

[SaveFerris]

The End of the Line community update for TF2 has gone live, looks like the rumored competitive hooks are used for a $4.99 item you buy that tracks ducks players drop when you kill them, and can be leveled up for $4.99 to drop more from each kill.

The community made map was cut from the update for being to confusing to new players also.

dear steamgaf. I'm sick and I dropped $800 to fix my house air conditioning.

the plus side is that wednesday is the last day of school for me for a few weeks and I picked up some recent-ish releases over the thanksgiving sale so I need to figure out what to play after I finish south park.

here's the candidates:

Shadow Warrior
Lords of the Shadow 2
Metal Gear Rising
Walking Dead season 2

I picked up a bunch of indies but I'm too drugged to list them.

oh sweet i won nom nom galaxy, wasn't expecting that. good thing i didn't enter STALKER, probably would've lost that one

 

[Eternia]

Check out Dell Venue 8 pro, it's around 200$, works wonderful with indie games, emulators, and streaming, such a lovely device for such a cheap price! Not to mention the screen is IPS.

Check this video out:

http://youtu.be/efDdh1iOC_8


Edit: I'm surprised no one even mentions the device, it's really awesome, while not ideal for gaming due to size, it does surprisingly really well, it handles source games pretty nicely and makes a nice "handheld replacement".

I picked one up (first tablet) recently during the store opening in Toronto for $99. It's a nifty little device but with some issues. Only really played primarily Hearthstone so far and it works pretty well. Gets pretty hot though and has some unfortunate battery issues due to how connected standby (doesn't) work. I find the touch screen responsive and accurate enough with the 8" screen and will probably look for more touch friendly games to try in the future.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

I started playing Unrest and it's pretty good so far. I keep wondering how the different choices affect the outcomes, though, because I feel like I'm constantly making the wrong choices :|

Sell it for $20 to BinaryPork! :3

It'll be about ten days or so before anyone sells a copy at that price

[Ryo Hazuki]

Does anyone know anything about Steam launching games in safe mode? Just put out a message on the Steam forums about this but maybe someone here knows something about it. A game crashed on me (The Talos Principal) when I was altering the resolution mid-game and I had to force close. This is a one off problem as the game has never crashed before and it might have had something to do with other programs I had running at the time. When re-launching it asked if I wanted to launch normally or in safe mode. Unfortunately I clicked safe mode and I can't get out of it.

The game shows green line command text in the top left of the screen and I'm not sure how to get it out of safe mode and back to the original settings. Not sure if it's a Steam thing or something the game handles but any help would be appreciated.

I've tried restarting Steam and restarting Windows. I'd reinstall but I don't want to risk losing my saves unless someone knows where I can locate them to back them up, as Game Save Manager couldn't detect them. Thanks in advance for any help.

 

[Kagemusha]

Crimsonland is taking forever to drop cards. Game is much more enjoyable than I thought it would be.



Also, for whatever reason I was never able to survive long in Star Fox and missed the N64 Star Fox. But playing Kromaia reminds me that I have no idea what I'm doing in these space shooters. Just absolute chaos and too many things shooting at me. I think I got to level in 6 in Kromaia before I exploded.

Thanks, I know its been getting thrown around lately but I wanted to try it out none the less.

 

[Lomax]

Yeah, I don't get these Devs setting card drop times so high. The Disney games are just awful, I'm over 4 hours now in Pure and still only have 2 out of 3 drops.

Fake edit: just finally got my third and final Pure card. 4.3 hours total. Considering the first card dropped within 30 minutes, that's almost 4 hours for the other two. Yesh.

You are missing out on some of the best combat systems. There is a very good reason everybody wants vanquish and Bayonetta on Steam.

 

[Milamber]

Don't worry, you played one Platinum game, you played them all.

[Milamber]

OT but, I think I will start buying amiibos now that they are considered limited quantity.

 

[InfiniteNine]

Kinda wish I got that erroneously double canon-armed Samus one I saw now that see how much they're going for on ebay.

 

[Hero Prinny]

OT but, I think I will start buying amiibos now that they are considered limited quantity.

i got the samus and yoshi amiibo. they're pretty dope, the quality is pretty good and their ai is pretty good ingame, they give me a nice run for my money and they're not even max level yet. I mean they don't beat me but they're definitely better than lvl9 cpus.

 

[Milamber]

I thought there was only one? There were multiple?

I don't think there's a nintendo character I like enough to buy one for.

 

[InfiniteNine]

Yup there were a few sent out like that first just that sold it did it for about $50 and the later ones are in the $200+.

 

[Ventara]

I'm the opposite. I was on the edge before, but now that I know that they're limited and hard to find (and thus will probably cost me more), I'll be passing. I mean $14 x 50 (or however many they plan to make) is a lot of money. I think spending them on games would be better for me.

Though I still might pick up one just to try them out. Maybe Samus.

I agree. I'd rather pick up more games than spend money trying to collect them all. Picking up one or two isn't too bad though.

Putting together my GOTY list this year is hard because half the games that I think would be on the list, I haven't even played yet.

Handicap yourself. Play Normal after 4~5 shots of Tequila or Soju or something.

 

[Rhaknar]

That just means its easier to drink yourself into a stupor and forget about worldly problems
hardly a bad thing

 

[didamangi]

So that's the new Lara Croft done. 5 hours solo, taking my time and completing all the 5 challenge tombs.

Game's easy, puzzles are too easy (major disappointment for me), first game is better. Haven't tried co-op. RPS review spot on.

It's still a fun game though, since I played it almost nonstop till the end.

 

[KScorp]

Still have 3 copies of Insurgency from a Humble Bundle. Quote post to see the gift link if you want it:
