Er-Are you using Xinput? I'm using a Dual-Shock 3 just fine in KoF '13 with no issues remapping. It's wanting Xinput/360 controllers since that's the "standard" for PC ports now a days.

I'll buy that for a dollar
We can dream.
How do I do that if it doesn't show on my Steam store?

It's very easy, since it's a short game for a low price. Buy it it you want a different take on the adventure genre, with a very good story that's very very different from the stories in most games. You might not like it, but it's different and special enough to warrant a try. Buy it, test it, and move on if you don't like it.
That's all the reboot is, IMO though. Style over substance.

Good Story?
Seriously, thats a story you have in one of those drama soap operas.
Misunderstood lesbian child, parents that lie to everyone while going to a relationship therapy, supposedly cheating wife and a bad uncle.
I wouldnt really call that a good story in my opinion.

Since some people are standing in their own way of happiness pain and are not pulling the trigger on Dark Souls...

Nope go it on ps3
I'm (making an attempt at) using a 360 controller. It's insisting that I want to use it for player 2. I change player 2's settings to keyboard, then the keyboard simply controls player 1's settings changes so I can't actually change anything with the keyboard. Then when I think I've got everything set as I want, I confirm that and try to go back in to the options screen to set the 360 pad as player 1, and the game says how about Hydra is player 1 and 360 is Player 2 again.
edit: Okay, realized that I couldn't change player 2's settings with the keyboard because despite saying Player 1 is using the Hydra, Player 1's default keyboard controls still work to control the player 1 setting. 360 controller isn't even listed under options for player 1, and Hydra isn't even listed under options for player 2, so right now it's looking like unplugging the Hydra is the only option here.
There are zero puzzles. Do not go in expecting them or you might have as virulent a reaction as I did. It is literally walk around the house. Click stuff until you hear an audio log and do that for the next hour and a half. If the story isn't compelling to you it is a terrible experience.

Oh, I've already played and beaten it twice, this one would be purely for collection's sake and to have it easily available without the PS3.

I completely agree. There's something to be said for style, though. DmC is worth playing through once on the cheap.
Better than what happened in the North. Aliens abducted a number of the little characters last night, now Yellow is all alone with no one to help him with his tongue on a frozen metal pole.

Hmm thanks guys. I'll get it, and if I don't like it then I wasted $6, which isn't a big deal.
2nd question: is there anything bad about Anno 2070? I know it's an always online game, which sucks, but I can deal with it. Anything else?

I don't give two liquid squirts about the Metal Gear franchise, but I sure in hell would love to see Platinum toss us some PC ports. They're probably the only console exclusive developer I care about, unless Naughty Dog makes another Crash game.

Story is cliche because it's a 90's story, but the way it unfolds is what is incredible. The tense atmosphere, music and writing are all incredible.

That'd be Castlevania's grotesque reboot, not so much with this one, in my mind. I feel the Devil May Cry reboot is pretty spiffy all around. I only really enjoyed 3 more than it, to be honest. Original is dated and 4 didn't do anything for me at all, personally.
The game is really not that bad. I was quite scared going into the game after hearing everyone boast about how difficult it is but it's pretty fun trying to think about how you're going to fight an enemy and then putting your skills and tactics to the test. Sometimes you get so involved that you don't care if you keep on dying - you just want to learn from your mistakes and fuck up the enemy next time.
I will admit that the bosses can be rather infuriating on your first playthrough but there aren't many unanimously difficult ones. E.g. I killed Capra demon in about 40 seconds while a lot of people say that he's one of the hardest but died to Taurus demon like 20 times. The advantage of that is that I can now travel the route from the nearest bonfire to the boss blindfolded lol.
Also, I didn't use the online part too much but I'm pretty sure you can't just play with your friend as if it's co-op.
Sigh, no buzz about anno. To anyone on the fence about Anno 2070... first of all, yes it has Uplay, but second of all just do it, if you like civ games, just buy it. Ubi bought the dev and and instead of a new Anno game this year we got free to play dummy version of 1701.
If you want a real reason to buy it, Anno games are like an expertly crafted real time board game. City building, trade, resource management, naval and submarine combat, layers upon layers of open ended strategy. A true PC game for PC gamers. Not the best game to buy and stick in a backlog, as like Civ any one mission can take days of play time to finish, but if you're after the pinnacle of city building games, thats Anno.

Yeah go buy Dark Souls.
With that said I don't really see much hype of it. It's a pretty standard, well-made game.
Well, "free" in a sense that you get Cartoon Network for cable as free.

it sorta has a multiplayer,basically,other players can come in your game as ghosts,either to help you (when you summon them) or to try to murder you (usually uninvited)..what kind you play in multiplayer (even though all happens during the normal single campain of the host) is given by what of the multiple factions in the game world you decide to work under.
so you can be invaded or invade,being helped or help

Hnng, I'm starting to get convinced. And I saw in masterkajo's post that the DSCFix mod makes it OK to play with mouse & keyboard? I don't have a controller for my PC.

Sorely tempted to pick up Pro Evolution Soccer 2014 now with it's 50% discount. Can cram in some major gaming time over the next few days, but then there's the ever so slight possibility it pops up as a Daily. Anything to cleanse my pallet of the bloody awful FIFA 14.
Argh!
