It's like sending Batman a letter. Why woyud you do that if youvhave a signal?

 

[Mr. Doop]

I bet they're keeping it open for 8 days to celebrate Chanukah.

Either that or the mods are like Santa: they don't exist.

I Believe in Moderators.

 

[MMBosstones86]

Maybe we should flood the old thread with suggestive waifu and husbando pictures. That's like a batsignal for mods.

I approve of this method. That and I want to see the thread descend into chaos.

 

[inm8num2]

75% off Shadowgate on Humble Store is a great deal.

Wish MGS was cheaper. I remember seeing it for $5 on PS4. Maybe I should just get that.

 

[the_firewithin]

any good .99 games on this sale like shuggy and marlow was during summer?

It's $6.60 on XB1. And it's $9-$10 on Nuuvem or GMG, but both are OOS at the moment I think.

The 3rd Tier rate went from 30 to 38 percent in the last day or two. Bayo really wants that Beach Party to happen.

 

[Hero Prinny]

I'm loving south park so far! I've spend 3 hours in game and only 1 hour was actual quests, the other 2 was exploring. I was originally playing on hardcore but damn i was losing every fight after the first few so i turned it down to normal, now that I got equipment to replace the starter gear I'm spanking these folks left and right, gonna turn it back to hardcore when I play again and see if it offers a better challenge.

Is it really like the Paper Mario series? Played the N64 game recently, and it was a blast.

 

[freshVeggie]

In controlled quantities it is, I believe. While I like coffee I never over-drink.

ah, you're here
tea is so good. coffee makes me so tense.

What the hell. No.
Play at 60 for that extra spicy taste.

even if the game was clearly developed with 30fps in mind and bugs happening at 60?
i'll just try out when i get a pc.

Praying for a Kohan Warchest deal; I always miss this damned thing, always. I want these games again. Badly. I will lie prostrate until they come back to me...

What the hell is wrong with Twitter?

I just received 4 mails from their support, one telling me that my password was changed and 3 saying that they suspended my account because they thought it could have been compromised. All of them in the same minute. I go on the site, i can login without problems, but I still change my password. I try to use their support form but if you select "Yes, I was able to access my account" they basically tell you "The why do you want to bother us?".

I also noticed another password change email from December 6 even if I tweeted something on December 7 without any problem.

Anybody experienced this?

For some reason while running Detective Case the screenshot function is not enabled. Odd, wanted to take a couple screens.

The shitty Activision is the one that got removed.

The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct was removed. That's the bad one.

That $20 package offer for Star Citizen is back, but there are only a few hundred of them left. If anyone is interested, this is as cheap as you can get the game now.

I really need to find out what's the buzz about this game is about...

 

[Servizio]

Speaking of games that rival Star Citizen in scale and production value.

S.P.A.Z. 2

Reveal trailer for Space Pirates and Zombies 2. Much cooler than I was expecting. Seems like there's a lot of modular base and mothership building kinda stuff, as well as real time star to star travel by NPCs and whatnot.

So, does buying Hack n Slash still give the Space something game, like it appeared to do the other day?

[Asgaro]

People are still posting in the old thread.

I was just gonna check out that old thread to see how many people had been fooled.

Then I noticed I made a lengthy post in that thread about an hour or two ago lol.
So copy/paste:

--

has anyone played mountain

it's like 33% off one dollar

i feel like at that price i should try it but i don't want to waste my time

(I know this is an answer to a very old post, but I had this post bookmarked since I didn't have time to respond when I saw it.)


I did: 8.8 hrs on record (so far).

And it's like a screensaver that you can mildly interact with, like everyone has been saying.
The thing is: there is nothing wrong with that. It depends on the person.

Let me explain:
I have been looking for games I can keep running while studying/working.
This game provides this. You can for example let it run on a second window, or run it on your main window by using extra software to keep it always on top. And from time to time you look up from your work to the game.
It's quite deep in the sense that certain things only happen after a veeery long time.
All you have to do is let the situation run its course.

Another genre of games that can provide this "gaming while being productive"?
- "idle games" (If you don't know it, look it up. It's a specific gaming genre.)
- turn based games like Civilization. You can take a turn, then work, a new turn, etc.
- tamagotchi's (I've been looking for a tamagotchi game that runs on your Windows PC. If anyone has any ideas let me know!)

The key element in all the above games?
You are being productive while at the same time accomplishing things by playing games.
This is possible because the games don't focus on time limits. Now, there are more genres that don't require time limits, but these are the ones I just came up with.
Of course, you also accomplish things by studying/working lol, but it's different.

Added to my wishlist like 10 months ago and in that time I think they went from 2D to 3D. Looks amazing.

Wow, the first one was a hidden gem of "bundle trash". I really enjoyed it. Hyped for this.

SPAZ, Tiny & Big, and Postal are great games among those considered "bundle trash".

black flag started interesting then it put me into a city and now it's assassin's creed

I think she may be one of the few "visionaries" in that genre of novels. I could be mistaken (waits for someone to post links)

hmm, interesting, thanks for the writeup

maybe i'll consider it, i like the idea of having it growing on the background while i code
