I think I know what Steam's GOTY is going to be.
It's Killzone 2. Congratulations!

I really hope that we get a decent Sim City. It looks interesting but I'm waiting for the reviews.

It was a hard road but I'm glad it won out

Hmmm, maybe if you only count console shooters. On PS3. Some liked the 'weight' of the weapons, I thought it played even slower than usual. Good atmosphere though.
While I'm not as excited about the visuals as the rest of GAF the hit reactions in The Order are looking rather nice.
I just realised that today is first Friday 13th in 2015. XD

got to the second boss, and this is one of the most unfun experiences i've had with a boss. Uninstalled.

It's 2015 and I'm still waiting for a game that is as half as good as KZ2 when it comes to hit feedback/reactions. I thought that with next-gen such a thing would start being common, but no dice. It's a shame.
Rage has pretty good hit reactions.
Oh, I loved Bulletstorm, but it hasn't much on hit feedback. Many enemies won't react to shots at all until the last shot, the one that kills it.And I can't remember exactly, but the death animations were fairly scripted(for the kills made directly with guns that is) while KZ2's very much dynamic. Bulletstorm is extremely good at how many ways you can interact and kill the enemies though. Also one of the most fun FPSs I ever played.

If anyone has any questions about Harold, I work for the company that made it (though I didn't personally work on the game). I haven't played Lester the Unlikely, Harold is a game where you alter the environment so he can finish the race, finding the best paths/ways around obstacles to win it as quickly as possible. He just constantly runs forward, so you do things like move a platform he is running across, setup a catapult to fling him when he walks into it, etc. You also adjust the obstacles to counter the opponents (an opponent jumps onto a platform, move it out from under them before they land). It's kinda like certain sections of Rayman Legends, but way more in depth and challenging.
This is the best gameplay video I've seen quickly showing off what the game's about (plus the guy playing it is hilarious).

Also controller latency was shit.

Probably one of my favorite things about the game. Some enemies were bullet sponges and encounters weren't always particularly exciting, but damn did they ever nail making you see the body malfunctioning when you killed someone. It kinda took me back a bit at first, since I'm so used to the ragdoll death thing these days. Actually watching the life evaporate from an enemy as it took a few final steps out of sheer mechanical force before tumbling to the floor... jesus.
Max Payne 3 also had some pretty great hit reactions, though that's a third person and not first person title.

None of the bosses I've faced so far have been any fun to fight. They each take 10+ minutes of boring shit. I don't even want to call it combat.
I'm currently on this Spider Boss and I'm really close to calling it quits. I've gotten to the point where I'm just going at it with no shield and a 2-handed sword. I give no fucks.
From what the folk around here are saying. Long Live The Queen seem to be the best one to play first.
Movies and sushi. You sure know how to live the dream life zky. :3 now I want some sushi..
Throwing wingsticks at sewer mutants and then blasting them away with the shotgun as they stumbled forward never got old.

Thx, I'll give it a look. My main concern with games where you don't directly control the main character is that they can get horribly frustrating fast. Like that forgotten LucasArts game Lucidity. On the other hand Back to Bed pulled it off nicely.

i recommend playing it at the easiest difficulty because the last fight in the game is something savage even in normal. Shit, it's pretty much the only thing i remember, that and running around killing dudes with a knife since i was still into trophies/achievements back in those days.

Made my first Steam purchase of the year.
Roundabout at $7.50 (50% off).
I'm excited about this one!

It would make too much sense. Though with how Valkyria popped up out of nowhere, it could happen.
Just you wait. You'll get your Yakuza games and I'll get my Ninja Gaidens

I will never admit this outside of SteamGAF but.... hold on to your butts.... I prefer K3 to K2. Even platinum'ed 3 (okay, not that hard compared to K2). Definitely better than Shadow Fall. Difficult to say where to put Mercenary, it's great for a portable fps but very short and the controls, no matter how relatively good, are fiddly.

not sure, really, given that the same team produced Binary Domain and that showed up on the PC like it was nothing special.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
It sounds like they set up a new studio from bits of Devils Details to handle ports, so it'll be interesting to see what comes out of it.

The multiplayer was where it shined. It's also where the subsequent games went wrong. Why reduce the scope of the multiplayer!?
I'd buy a standalone MP PC version right now, if I could. For non-twitch, non-arcade MP FPS, it's way up there on the list.
Edit: I'm also in the boat on waiting for a Talos Principle sale... it looks like a game made for me.
Jase will be disappointed.
Marion Cotillard is joining Assassin's Creed Move cast. There is still chance we will see Saoirse Jese XD

I don't think Yakuza 1/2 HD ever got a western release. And 4 is easier for beginners to get into than 3.
Haven't played that but the reception was good. Obviously much more action.

I'm really surprised ibb & obb isn't included.

Thanks. Local multiplayer sale is pretty exciting.
I hope the discount on Starwhals is good.
The only reason not to release Yakuza games on Steam is if Sega hates money. Same for KT and the available trilogy of Ninja Gaiden games that are the epitome of character action.

Of course the was a third entry
Which didn't bloody come out over here
Also...
I think I might crumble if these don't end up being limited to Japan.
I have no idea, but I would assume today.
It's going to be priced and it will be lower than the base game by a significant amount. I would say $4.99.
Oh in that case (and as I said) yes, no blinking whatsoever.
Yep, that's the problem
lol that guy is also portuguese
Edit: it's not that the motherboard is dead, just not working as intended. This has happened before once or twice (just didn't take this long to fix) and occurs when/if it goes into sleep mode (solution would be to leave wmp running and playing). It shuts down just fine (if you don't leave it for long) just the sleep mode that for some reason gets it in this mode.
Edit 2: Is it possible to fix this by switching the CMOS battery?

Speaking of Ninja Gaiden, and cause I know SteamGAF loves Bayo, check out this sig someone made me a long time ago to use in a different forum:
If you could fit Raiden from MGR in there, I think it would create some kind of paradox.

You can't fight the call of the inevitable backlog. Pull the trigger and compound your problems like the rest of us are doing.

dont buy MKX until we know that the netcode on the PC version isn't garbage.
Most of them won't release anytime soon. Wait.
