I've been sifting through my goty candidates 2015 list and I think I'm in pretty deep shit.

Aside from maybe the top 3, I have like 14 more games on that list and I don't particularly value any of them over the others. Not many great games, but a slew of good ones that all probably deserve a mention.

Culling and ranking them will be a real bitch this year.
 
Is there any new content added to the Gears of War ultimate edition? I might be in the minority but of the series, I thought the first one was the weakest.

Quoted from IGN:
While the majority of the content in Gears of War: Ultimate Edition remains the same as the original with a few changes, mostly being to multiplayer. There are plenty of new skins, for both characters and weapons, and game modes. Check them out below.

Will be on Windows store though right? Not Steam?

Most probably, yes.

I like how all you people that only played the 360 version will be able to experience firsthand how utter dogshit the extra PC encounters were =p
 
I have some Steam Trading Cards for games with recently added cards.

Example:
One game with trading cards added less than 24 hours ago.
Another game with trading cards added like 2 weeks ago.

Should I sell them now or wait until the Steam Holiday Sale 2015 starts to sell them?

That looks pretty cool.

Oh hey Rayge, I just got the G710 keyboard the other day, my first mechanical keyboard. Walmart had it for $100 but, they decided to price match it for $60 dollars where Best Buy had it at. It's a nice keyboard.

Oh yeah, what kind of stick is that? I know it's a Vewlix but, I can't say I have seen that one.

Thanks.

The stick is by Shadaloo. It's probably the best one I've ever owned in terms of build quality. I got it back in 2009 I think. The PCB in it is an old PS360. Not the "+" version. I haven't had a single issue with it on PC.

I have a new stick on the way from GIANTSWORD. Should be here Wednesday. Had it commissioned in September. He did a damn fine job on this custom Stick.

Here is an almost finished pic I shared on the stick thread. It's just missing the M16 Assault carrying handle.

Too bad I'll still be garbage tier in fighting games.

Card prices usually go down in value with time. During the sale I'd imagine people will dump their cards and demand will go down. Sell the new stuff first, like now. Idle master will even idle based on card value. Other wise wait until after the sale to sell.

At least you'll look cool while losing.
 
Got further in that Bunker point-and-click. I sure hope some of you will find my impressions entertaining...because it sure hasn't been for me thus far. Holy hell. This one could give Reversion and Hotel Collector's Edition a run for their money.
 
Are there any compatibility issues with the Xbox Wireless Adapter? I got a slick Lunar White pad but I didn't get around to grabbing the adapter yet. From what I see, it should be perfect compatibility.

Phew, saw the Star Wars unspoiled after last nights debacle.

I feel like playing Undertale now is a lost cause. I'm only an hour in and while it seems cute and clever it's been so overexposed I have a hard time believing it can get on my GOTY list.

Nope, I use the Lunar White pad and adapter for all my games now. Although I did learn that I had to unplug my Wii U mayflash adapter or the XB1 pad wouldn't register as pad 1

Damn, it does that with the Xbox One pads too? I guess I'll just unplug my Wii U adapter then or switch them out or whatever.

Anybody seen any Ori and the Blind Forest plushies anywhere?

564 hours here

i will uninstall at 666

My hours in Clicker Heroes are also high, but 99% of that is idling in the background when I am watching something. (That said, I also think it is time to stop. I mean, it's not like I don't know what the next 1000 hours are going to be like. And the next 5000.)

So I want to get a Rocket League code for a friend for Christmas (to use when the Mac version comes out.) If I just get a steam code from GMG or somewhere they should be able to redeem it with no problems when it comes out right? Thanks a lot!

Just according to plan.
Putting only Bloodborne on the lists help as well, so other games won't get additional points.

The fervor that people are posting it with is kinda funny. I dunno if I'd put it as my number 1 but I have to think some more. Most are just rushing into the thread and putting Bloodborne at #1 in the wrong format and no other games on the list.

Reminds me very much of the way people were all over The Last of Us in 2013's voting thread.
