I think GTA V is likely coming, it's just a matter of when.
I wouldn't be surprised by a spring release.

Alternatively, only take out enemy camps by releasing the animals. Watch hilarity ensue.
Alpha Protocol mainly only get recommendations for just "one way to play", but again when you accept it as a RPG, as a game where a roll of the dice determine 1) if it hits and 2) the amount of damage, you can play different builds and get a good time.
One style is just mostly recommend to try and appease those who want it more as a third person shooter than anything else.
I played on PS3 a long time ago and have since lost my copy, so I am going off an older build to be sure.
However you still don't want to take out every base. From what I'm reading that still decreases the number of patrolling enemies and the number of reinforcements that will be sent out. I enjoyed being low on health, running out of arrows and other weapons, running for my life or riding on a vehicle (ATV is best) and accidentally being too close to an enemy camp and being swarmed even more or being hit by someone on a roof in my mad dash along the only road away.
Also good fun. Though I prefer trying to lure or chase animals like komodo dragons or other dangerous beasts into a camp followed by fire. A bear on fire can set men on fire you know.
Nay, not at all. It's mostly if you want to "own it" on Steam as opposed to "rent it" on PS+.

R* Table Tennis, Midnight Club: LA and RDR are literally the only previous-gen R* games to not get PC ports. You also need to consider that the only GTAs to not show up on the PC are the handheld titles.
Rumoured, and a very dubious one at that considering it runs on RAGE.

It took 8 months after the console version of IV for the PC version.
Literally every main GTA title has been on PC.
It's been leaked in Nvidia's drivers.
It's been 3 months.
It's coming.

What time is it?
Looks like there is a demo.

I know this sounds totally redundant at this point, but buy the hell out of Risk of Rain tomorrow when it supposedly is going on sale again. This game gets exponentially more awesome in every way the longer you play it, I love it way more than say Rogue Legacy and even Spelunky now.
I've been playing this game wrong.

Resident Evil Revelaitions runs like a dream on my mid tier PC however the gameplay is JANKY.
Don't know how to describe it.

Have you ever played a game with tank controls?
My current record is 46 days in default settings. Died to 3 walruses.
This isn't true. A large portion of the most lauded RPG's are held in such high esteem because of their gameplay. Deus Ex (original), Balder's gate series, Diablo 1/2 (3 is fundamentally broken), Dark/Demon Souls, and the Icewind Dale series are all RPG's that are famous for their combat, not for the stories that they told.

Have played Resident Evil for years.
RE4 and RE5 are great and the GOAT is RE2.
This one is a bastard child between the old and the new. But hey, at least it's not RE6. That's shit

Walruses? Wtf, LOL. Sounds amazing. Seems like I'll really have some fun with it.
Guys, any chances for a Portal 1 & 2 bundle showing up later? I remember seeing one last year which went for $5 or so.

If there was a 3.99 title on the U.S. side you needed, I would be interested in trading my way in. I realize that may be a tall order.
So SNOW has grown on me a bit since I gave my first impression. I've spent the past hour or so playing strictly in first-person, and it's quite fun even without sound. I'd be fine if they ditch 3rd-person and just focus on this view completely during development. It really could separate it from all the other "extreme sports" games.
Here's a quick gif I made:
This could be incredible to play with Oculus Rift once you're done vomiting.

It ends.
FUCKING WALRUSES. They have ice wolves and kid walruses as companions so you are never fighting them alone. Plus the actual walruses themselves use darts.
The only reason i went to try to hunt one was to make the walking stick. It increases move speed when equipped and can be used as a weapon too, abeit a weaker one than a spear. However, it will never break.
Deus Ex is my favorite game ever and I would laugh in someone's face if they told me the combat was good.
I'm up for it, pay through paypal only or though games on steam? Also just where do you get it so cheap?
The story of Deus Ex was trash when the game first released and has gotten worse in hindsight as the industry, and the games they produce, have matured. The importance of Deus Ex was it's approach to game play, especially in the opening level.
Actually interacting with enemies? Yeah, it's pretty rough. The game was great because it allowed and encouraged players to explore and approach situations from multiple angles.
As fore Baulder's Gate. Go play Planescape: Torment, a masterpiece of storytelling dragged down by the functionally broken gameplay. Then play Balder's Gate 2.
Damn that looks awesome.
You're focusing on the wrong thing here.
Both (well, all 3, technically) are definitely not known for their combat =p
Hmm, now I wonder how Borderlands would have fared had it not had the damage numbers, "miss", and "critical" show up in such an apparent manner. Though I do recall some complaints on various boards about it as well when it came to people missing a shot with the sniper riffle and getting pissed off when they had a "perfectly lined up shot".

There were some great story telling moments in Deus Ex. As a whole I agree the story was pretty messy, and the characters rather uninteresting. But I loved the overall theme, and there were some fantastic conversations. I particularly love the Morpheus encounter.
Where Deus Ex's story really shined IMO was in how it integrated with the gameplay. Characters reacting to your choices, etc. It's something that's done a lot these days, but I would wager was rather rare when the game was released.
Hmmm if you guys could pick one game to get that pricing error which game would it have to be?
Honestly atm I can't come up with one really so it would be interesting what you guys come up with.
I can get some nice pizza for that price. Pass

Man. That looks cool as hell.
I need to not, though...
Man.
I think I own everything that's <$4. Sorry.
PayPal. If that's okay with you I'll PM you the details.

Train Simulator 2014 DLC, or GTAV (whenever it comes out ha ha)
Not ideal, but can be done.

I'm on an RPG kick after marathoning the Witcher series. Just started Skyrim, very lttp with that. I'm six hours in and I have to say, I'm loving it. It's like Fallout with a medieval/fantasy setting. This game is going to eat my life.
I have a spare copy of the Founders Pack that I'm looking to offload for $14 (same price that I paid for it). Accidentally bought two.
Alrighty.
