STEAM | February 2015 - Steam GOTY results still delayed

Hello SteamGAF.
Maybe someone can help me with a question:
If there is no warning on my inventory, is the item safe from the general region trading block? I'm from one of the locked regions (SA), so I want to make sure the extra copy I got from Gravity Ghost is giftable - it is one of those "buy one, get an extra copy" deals.
Very nice game, if somewhat short and simple (2 hours for all stars).

For nothing, like every other game that requires that update.
nothing's sacred anymore

Kane and Lynch 1 had some interesting scenarios (the bank robbery, the skyscraper, the prison) that was marred by sloppy shooting mechanics that has aged about as well as mold on bread. Once it jumps the shark and heads to Cuba, it loses pretty much all it had going for it. The
"Damned if you do, damned if you don't"
Kane and Lynch 2 is a much better game all around, and in many ways was the anti-shooter before Spec Ops hit the scene. The entire first game you see Kane as being the leader of the two men, always having an answer to the problem even if it throws them into more danger. In 2, the roles are swapped. Lynch is in charge, which is something he should never be, and his explosive anger sends the two of them down a bleak path like rabid dogs chasing after their prey. I particularly loved how the game handled the final "boss". Everything felt pretty well-realized in terms of, "These two bozos fucked with the wrong people, and they're continuing to fuck with the wrong people."
I even loved 2's brash aesthetics, it all felt very thematically fitting even if it was there to cover up some deficiencies in the visuals. Shame the multiplayer is as dead as can be. I loooooooooooooove a good heist flick, and the multi was aimed directly at someone like me who wanted that thrill of working together while never knowing who would be the rat.
we always were!
meh dark theme sucks
I think i just brought up some sick

Picked up Deus Ex GOTY, pretty cheap for 1.39
Yeah, if there is no list of countries then the gift is region-free.
awesome post, really mirrors my thoughts on the series. i still contend that the lack of hit feedback and the generally poor aiming was deliberate in an attempt to make the game not very much fun to play (say, in spec-ops, getting slow-mo headshots feels a bit contradictory with the overall message the game was trying to tell) like some other people say. it just makes sense for me. doesn't really excuse the shitty cover and order mechanics, but i think they wanted to show these psychos as not very much enjoying what they do and being desensitized to it

There is no greater crime than:
Character 1: ... [press x to continue]
Character 2: ... [press x to continue]
Character 3: ... [press x to continue]
Character 4: ... [press x to continue]
Character 5: ... [press x to continue]
Character 6: ... [press x to continue]
Except perhaps when they all say the same thing in various ways. Like, you just rescue a NPC and you get:
Character 1: Yeah! [press x to continue]
Character 2: Good job! [press x to continue]
Character 3: We love you NPC! [press x to continue]
Character 4: I'm so glad you're OK! [press x to continue]
Character 5: Now we can go get cake! [press x to continue]
Character 6: Good job! [press x to continue]
I want to break things clicking through most game dialog. People talk about grinding and collectithons being disrespectful to players time, but at least they don't hurt my head like '...' six times in a row does.

I've got 600 games installed, maybe more. If I used a cleaner to delete all the redistributable packages, Steam would only redownload the packages when a game gets an update?

Yeah, you'll be always warned if something in your inventory has a region restriction on it. As a general rule anything that spawns extra copies on activation (i.e. 2 and 4 packs) won't have region restrictions on the spawned copies.
No, but it does if the redistributables get updated as they did yesterday, or if you verify the game cache.
Steam only redownloads redists if you verify a game's cache, updates that include updated redists aside (obviously).
Someone should totally trade me Darkest Dungeon for my AC Unity (Uplay, not Steam) code.
I think forsen has a better chance of winning a tournament then you getting someone to take your Uplay Unity code. :Kappa:

Put the code up on eBay. You should be able to sell it for at least $30 quite easily.
Stumpokapow
listen to the mad man
Temporary ModBot downtime right now, problem with the server it's hosted on.
Tone reversal? Yes; Awesome? Nooooo.
Quite honestly I just pushed on through cause it'd get better right? It doesn't, except one fight scene the rest is meh and then there's the thing with "over-the-top" vs "way over-the-top"
Is it noticeable it left a sour impression?
I would not say it is safe to assume. Most of the Final Fantasy games that have come to PC so far have been on more than one platform previously. FFXIII games were on PS3 and 360, 3 and 4 are ports of the iOS version, which were ports of the DS remakes, and 7 and 8 had a PC version back in the day. FFX and FFX-2 have only ever been on Sony consoles.
I've heard speculation that Sony contributed in some way to the development FFX originally, which might mean it won't ever come to other platforms. The fact that the Remaster didn't come to Xbox platforms, when most of their other modern releases did, seems to support that logic. But then I haven't seen any solid proof one way or another of it's exclusivity.
The lack of an X360 version to use as a base makes FFX and co. an iffy prospect.
i'm confused why you spoiler tagged my post
also i disagree, the series' themes evolve during the series, that's one of the most interesting things about the show
Kb&m -> controller software is your only avenue, unless something has changed since I last played the game.
If you have a DualShock 2 just press the Analog button.
If you have a DualShock 4 just make a profile for the game with analog stick mapped to D-Pad and vice versa.
If you have a X360 controller, then... dear god, why would you want to use D-Pad on this?!
Ninja Guy is sorta bad, then again maybe it's a game for kids, or meant to be for kids, or IDK... just bad?
dunno about Chariot, but I am. Not only you bought it as you said you will, you've played it and finished it.
Maybe you don't hate RPGs after all?
There is no timer, you can go back as many steps as you want, not that you need that most of the time, but in case you do. Maybe you are listening to wrong music?
clever!Artificial challenge increase.

or maybe it's just power of Nep Nep (><)
how it can be stressful? I don't get it.

You do listen to your music when playing it, don't you?
I have F310 as well.
It has an even worse D-Pad than X360 controller.
It has sticky, clicky face buttons.
It has triggers that require entirely too much force to pull.
You would not pay me to play on F310. Not when I have both DS2 and DS4.
because THAF FUCKNG STUPID THIGN I CANT GET ENOUGH LINES THERE LKAJFKSAJDLAS
stressful

lol. It surpasses itself? Actually, that fits in with the Gurren Lagann talk I guess!
true
I should get a Wii U Pro Controller, bayonetta told me it works on the PC
It works but from what I see not every game might be compatible. Dark Souls 2 doesnt register the controller. They are working on fixing the compatibility tho.
Are you talking about couple of last levels perhaps? because they are trickier, true. Or maybe you are playing it for too long in one sit? It's not your normal game, it's a zen game! you play it to relax and then move to more intense things, games or whatever strikes your fancy.
or you just aren't a zen person (><)
maybe Nintendo will release drivers...
it will be released with the PC port of Bayonetta 2.
NEVER

Golden Boy is one of the few shows directed at more adult people which aired in German television.
Damn guys, it is so fun. Good grief it is fun.
Also the German opening music is pretty dope.
Not sure if it is Nvidia's drivers but after making a clean windows install I got the latest Nvidia drivers and since then I can't watch most videos anymore without getting stuttering. Thinking of searching for older drivers :/
I thought only AMD has driver issues.
It's one of the best games of all time imo. Even holds up today.
Ha! Funny but also embarrassing. But funny mainly

Only a bit related but I wanted to mention it here as it's my main GAF community, but Guy Cihi (Silent Hill2's James Sunderland's voice actor) will be streaming with Fungo tonight and answering chat questions in two and a half hours.
>Silent Hill 2's released on PC, just not Steam.

Some of these ports use proprietary Sony software, KH/KH2/FFX/FFX2.
