You can only download apps of 100mb or less via cellular data. I have no Acess to wifi or my pc so that I can transfer.
I found a game though that I have in my Steam library that's also on the App Store. Going to play that and go from there.

yeah ... you're almost there ... keep going
Errrr go to a cafe or fast food with wifi?
at this point i don't know if i'm leveling or if there's really any point to leveling
afaik the only way to do so is spending money, right?
i never understand why ppl say samus is a good female character when she has no personality to begin with -__-

i mean, i find it interesting to see them do at least something with the series in a story direction. something isn't necessarily better than nothing, but i'm interested that they tried at least giving samus some personality

There's no wifi in the woods. I'm basically camping for a month.
The game I got the app doesn't work on iPhone 6.
Anyone have some steam recommendations that have iOS versions as well?
Alone or not?
You could bribe some other smuck to make a portable wi-fi hotspot with his cellphone and use his data =3

Spent way too long playing Wolfenstein today, looked at the clock and it's 2.30 in the morning. Will have to finish it another day, good game but some of the environment textures are strangely low-res even with everything on highest.
That's where I got mine from, it works and activates fine in the UK.
Finished Lara's Oshiri. It was pretty good fun (although some of the jumps are a bitch on keyboard controls).
Pity the netcode isn't really up to doing global games and drops people at random, with lag spikes teleporting you around and killing you, so I had to mainly do it single player.

No one even joined my game once.
It's the ID tech to blame. That engine is just off.
I'll have to see if any of them have it.
Tried a game at a set time with set people, and the end result was that duckroll ragequit the game forever.
Sin and Punishment 2 is a game everyone should play at least once... same for Metroid Prime Trilogy...
Playing the GameCube version of Prime 2 on Dolphin right now!
Are you stuck on base right now? Can always go to a coffee shop and connect to their wi-fi.
If I can make a recommendation, Jshackles says that the DQIII port is very good.
EDIT: I see.

I'm stuck in the woods for training so I can't go to that side of the base. Looks like it's gonna be Dragon Quest though they're small enough and the costs aren't bad for the earlier ones. Guess I'll start with 1 and work my way up.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Grief speaks the truth. I'm about two-thirds of the way through it and probably 20 hours in. I haven't played through it since it originally released on the NES, and this version is amazing. It's also only about 70MB, so that might fit the bill if you're looking for something to keep you busy for a while.
Good choice. I'd say 5 is probably the best one (and longest one) that's on Android right now, but it's about double your 100MB limit unfortunately.
Have they fixed the black bar issue yet? Or are you using SyncGPU/Single Core mode?
Edit: Nevermind, it's not yet noted as fixed https://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/issues/detail?id=4336
On a different note, so much REmake has got me itching to give Resident Evil 6 a go. Just for the change of pace.
I'm just not taking screenshots anymore, that is what causes my desync.

Gunspell looked like it could scratch that Puzzle Quest itch, but the game is absolute garbage. I'm guessing it's a port of a mobile game, because it has stuff like 3 different types of in-game currency and the ability to use those currencies to speed things up. Except you can't buy the different types of currency, you win them by playing the game (so at least there's that).
The writing is horrible and the enemy AI is almost non-existent. 13 minutes in-game was long enough for me to decide that this game just isn't for me.
I vote it gets the poop icon.

I was about to enter that raffle until I saw similar reviews on its store page. Thanks for taking one for the team!
It's been 18+ years already. It's been mentioned in countless videos, articles and memes. It already has a full CG movie too. I think I am way past any statute of spoiler limitations.
Also King Kong dies at the end.
Spoilers are spoilers. There is still lots of people that didnt play FF7 or younger people getting into the series. As funny as it might be it is a spoiler for those who have not played them and kept themselves in the dark.

FFVII is firmly in the "it was his sled" category. If you don't know what happens in the game by now, you probably deserve to be spoiled.

What about Darth Vader?

That's the mentality of an asshole. If I were 10 years old or something and wanted to play it for the first time now, I don't deserve to have something that big spoiled for me.

No, it isn't.
As multiple threads in the past have proved, once something enters the public domain, gets parodied to high hell and back and/or is out for a certain amount of time, it's fair game. No one is going to walk on eggshells around certain spoilers (i.e. Soylent Green is people, Darth Vader, Bruce Willis in Sixth Sense).
The game has been out for nearly 20 years, and Aeris' death scene has been the focal point of multiple features, numerous video reviews and is one of the main points people bring up when they talk about the game. If you didn't know that by now, you probably should have stayed clear of gaming boards or discussion in general with the game.

It's pretty much synonymous whenever the game gets brought up, to the point that's it mentioned in the title of videos like this. Frankly, I sincerely doubt that you've never run across this spoiler. It's pretty much a prerequisite to talking about it.
So did I. I actually just beat VII for the first time a month ago. Knowing that she died didn't diminish my enjoyment of the game any less.
It's weird that I could only hear your broadcast last night but no video comes through.
Did you turn desktop mode on?
I finally caved and bought it all.

And those videos/articles/memes probably have context that people having played it would understand. In all my gaming related browsing of the internet, I'd never come across that specific spoiler, and if I did, I didn't understand the context.
It's a dick move.
Yeah, sure. I used to hate JRPGs, so I didn't play them. Also didn't have a system to play on. I only started playing FF recently because of the Steam releases.
But whatever, fuck me right?
you've done well

Good luck finding a ten year old who wants to play FF7.
You're closing off any possibility that someone just getting into video games or someone young could discover the death for themselves. Those spoilers become famous for a reason - the twists are such incredible shocks that people can't help but discuss them. Imagine someone lucky enough to experience them for the first time. Now imagine some assholes on a message board ruining that by assuming everyone's followed a specific segment of gaming for the past 20 years.
In regards to legal issues right?
I did not. I haven't messed around with the broadcast settings. Perhaps that will do the tricks.
Its not a steam game and its an emulator so I suppose those 2 points are part of why it doesnt work with it? Im not that informed with the broadcasting so Im clueless on the subject. I do take pics with Steam tho lol.
OBS or steam? I can help with OBS.

Like I said above, I just beat FF7 about a month ago. I knew the death going in. Didn't diminish my enjoyment of the game.
Again, you're assuming that people are just going to walk on eggshells with a game that's been part of gaming history and the collective gamer consciousness for the last two decades. You said it yourself - these twists are famous for a reason. Assuming that people are going to actively avoid discussion of it, when it was the signature moment of the game and a huge turning point for the RPG industry, is being highly idealistic and presumptuous.
Should I play in any specific order? Halp. Does it even matter?
Do it now and let me see what you were doing last night. Hearing 2 men grunting and huffing at each other with no video on last night makes for uncomfortable explanations that I would love to have clarified.

You're definitely an asshole if you think someone deserves to be spoiled for being late to something, sorry to say.

Is it really walking on eggshells to put a name in spoiler tags though? You're right in that there's no way to avoid spoiling a famous work at some point, but generally trying not to do so is easy.
