Is FFXIV a Steam key? Damn, if I would know, I'd purchase the bundle, I would grab FFXIV and Osiris for 5€, but I never thought those can be bundled, since I have basically all SE games, excluding Sleeping Dogs Remastered.
EDIT: FFXIV is not a Steam key, this change everything, lol.

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

Why only episode 1? Lol...

you know why.

That shit shouldn't even count, episode 1's have turned into demos these days.

 

[fertygo]

Not bad...

bah hopefully this what I get too

 

[DarknessTear]

you know why.

That shit shouldn't even count, episode 1's have turned into demos these days.

Yeah, just the first episode is a freakin trap.

How much longer do I gotta wait @_@

SCRABBLE - The Classic Word Game

I just bought Kerbal and TA, but now I have to buy this.... assuming it works well. Love me some Scrabble

 

[Knurek]

For anyone on the fence about Final Fantasy VI on steam, someone released a mod to reduce most of the blur in the game.

He also released a widescreen mod alongside it.

Less blurring, wrong aspect ratio OTOH.

SCRABBLE - The Classic Word Game

I'm tempted. Does it have online play?

Regret.

SCRABBLE - The Classic Word Game

Cool beans. Really wish an updated version of Monopoly was on Steam. Something like Monopoly Plus.

Just wanted to say happy birthday to DukeBobby.

Pretty sure it's today, or it was yesterday

. I haven't seen him in the ol' Steam threads in some time, but in case he's a lurkin', all the best ya grumpy old man

 

[Parsnip]

Realm Reborn eh? Is that like a month of playtime or something? That's laaaaame.

 

[Spirited]

My valve get sued post is still being posted in?
And they are still saying the same thing over and over again,from both sides.

 

[Jazz573]

Regret.

I'm so sorry. ;_;

 

[DarknessTear]

Realm Reborn eh? Is that like a month of playtime or something? That's laaaaame.

It's a great game though! Until you get to the endgame of the expansion at least.

Gift box seems crappy though overall...

Spoiler

I actually want FFXIII PC.

Lol, even worse than i thought it would be. Awful.

Total Annihilation

Nice to see that on there. I've actually still got the original and the expansion on CD around here somewhere. I was always the odd one out among my friends who were all into Starcraft at the time, while I thought TA was far, far superior.

How long has Total Annihilation had a giant UFO in it? I played it back in the day and only remember low-level skirmish nonsense and constantly running out of resources due to the commander unit's super attack.

There isn't. That's got to be a screenshot from a mod or something. Neither vanilla TA or the expansion had any sort of large flying units. Even the gigantic super-unit, the http://totalannihilation.wikia.com/wiki/Krogoth wasn't THAT big, and it was the largest unit in the game.

I wonder if it's still possible to play online. I don't remember the single-player being all that great.

• Play with your friends online with new Online Multiplayer mode

Realm Reborn eh? Is that like a month of playtime or something? That's laaaaame.

I played some of the beta. I enjoyed it, but I dropped it.

 

[fertygo]

so when the box gonna opened S-enix

damn

 

[Knurek]

Crappy Squeenix Holiday Box means good discounts during the Winter Seal, right?

Spoiler

in b4 no discount for Final Fantasy games

 

[yuraya]

I almost bit on that mystery box because I really thought they would include the entirety of LiS. Glad I didn't. Already have XIII and don't care about any of the other stuff.

 

[Dr Dogg]

Well 2 out of 5 ain't bad.

All right let's play this silly game. What's in the box?!?!?!

My guesses

• Tomb Raider
• Hitman Absolution
• Thief
• Life is Strange Ep 1 and discount voucher for the rest
• Final Fantasy V

Actually it's quite poor and I should be ashamed of myself.

I quite like Monaco (even if I dropped out the monospace font war a bunch of years ago, and now just use whatever default font uses my current editor of choice, like I guess now with Atom is Menlo, with Sublime was Consolas or something), but that's not Monaco though!

I think all Apple instances of Terminal or Xcode are Menlo now by default since Snow Leopard(?). To be fair what was posted is a bit of a horrible mishmash that looks familiar but looks distant at the same time.

 

[Parsnip]

I'm just surprised the box had any FF at all.

 

[Jazz573]

I'm just surprised the box had any FF at all.

I'm not.

 

[DarknessTear]

is that box even worth the amount they advertised? lol

I've seen most of those games sold for stupidly low prices

 

[MMBosstones86]

So there are really just 3 full games in there, right? Nicely done Squeenix.

Why only episode 1? Lol...

So you buy the rest, obviously.

 

[BasilZero]

Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris
Thief
Final Fantasy XIII
Life is Strange Episode 1
Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn

Wow, glad I didnt get this lol

Only one game that I want in this pack and thats FFXIII - and I'm sure I can get it for cheaper when SE has a sale online on its store....

 

[AlanOC91]

Less blurring, wrong aspect ratio OTOH.

¯\_(&#12484_/¯

True but at least the mod to reduce blurring can be used on it's own for now. So far the first step on improving this crappy port job.

 

[DarknessTear]

So you buy the rest, obviously.

I get that, I just expected more when I shouldn't have.

 

[Jazz573]

I get that, I just expected more when I shouldn't have.

And that's how it comes back to bite you.

 

[Lain]

Go to the store, see how much they are sold for, add the prices together and report back to us. lol

 

[MMBosstones86]

I get that, I just expected more when I shouldn't have.

Best to keep the bar as low as possible.

There's some life advice for you, write that down.

 

[fertygo]

No even Deus Ex or Absolution

I guess they already giveaway those for 1$ dollar anyway

 

[jshackles]

Yeah I had to extracate myself from that thread after it became increasingly clear that people won't listen to reason and think that having a legal agreement with a company is the same thing as owning a piece of plastic.

 

[Parsnip]

I'm not.

Considering the only time FF was in the previous boxes was xmas 2014, and even then only as measly coupons, I don't know why anyone would expect things to be different now. The Square Enix boxes have always been more of Eidos boxes, excluding Last Remnant that one time.

Just like all Square Humble Bundles.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

So, apparently the words God Eater were found in the source for the countdown. So pretty much confirmed.

Update

Apparently it's been changed to say SAO.

Bamco be trolling.

What countdown?

I think all Apple instances of Terminal or Xcode are Menlo now by default since Snow Leopard(?). To be fair what was posted is a bit of a horrible mishmash that looks familiar but looks distant at the same time.

I've been coding on Win for years now, but back in the day when I used Snow Leopard (all the way to Mountain Lion), I was totally sure it used Monaco, but now I'm reading it was updated to Menlo at some point.

Anyway, they all look the same to me. Like, apparently I was wrong with the whole Menlo in Atom thing, as I can't seem to find Menlo in the installed font list, and anyway I compared it to Consolas (used by Sublime, Cmder and at this point by Atom too I guess ), and, well... They really are indistinguishable

Spoiler

especially now that the end of the work week approach its end

[Anteater]

for fuck's sake, ffxiii-2 just drags on, how many times do you repeat the same shit, kill a boss, cutscene, fight the almost identical boss, he raise himself, and you kill him again, 3 bosses spawn, kill 2 of them and the last one raises one of them half way.

there's no save and I had to go because it was taking too long, fuck this shit

don't get me started on those shitty ass spin a room puzzles, wait for a platform to spin so you could cross to reach the last area, and follow a stupid fucking npc across an empty map back and forth for dialogues, ugh

I hope my Sony and PCgaming related thread will end well and wasn't a mistake.

Four here but there's a reason for that, apparently they're not very good. 9 Clues 2 is the only one I would recommend.
