I'm playing XCOM now. Do try to keep up sweetie.
It's not me, it's you that don't spend enough hours on a single game!

I decided against it after reading some impressions, it's still far from finished and we'll certainly get the same discount during summer sale.

listen to the mad man
Just put 30 minutes into Nilbog is Goblin Spelled Backwards Nilhog Nilhumbara The purple game that's on sale right now. toddhunter very graciously gifted me a copy a few days ago.
It's a stiff puzzle-platformer where your mouse controls paint which changes the nature of terrain you walk on. It's beautifully hand drawn and painted. It's narrated by a very nice voice every step of the way, more Thomas Was Alone style than Bastion. It's got a vaguely existential theme so far to the point that I'd guess it is a mediation on loneliness, or growing up, or fitting in, or mental health / anxiety / depression?
Based on my 30 minute impressions it's probably worth your money if you like indie stuff. I think it's fairly short.

Pretty sure I read the base price will be lower than current price once it's done, so why not wait?
woo and indeed hoo

Every age of empires game is garbage though
Get out!
Okay, good point. However, I heard that the PC version of Spelunky has exclusive features like daily challenges and custom characters. And right now, it's only three quids. Worth it?If you already own Spelunky, I'd say get The Swapper for a very strong puzzle platformer exclusive to the PC. Spelunky is obviously still amazing, but I'm sure you already know that!

You shut your dirty mouth
Sorry, that's my childhood there. Is AoE2 HD still borked?
Pretty sure the daily challenges are in the PS3 version too.
I put in for it, great giveaway I haven't played this badboy since it first came out on 360.

nope.avi
actually, I LIKE popcorn...
So 200 hours on FTL and 100 on XCOM is not enough?!
You have 200 hours in FTL? I guess the ihavenoideawhatimdoing dog jpg doesn't apply to you
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
It's pretty good. It's more intricate than the iOS.

It may apply, just change the first panel and put a cat instead of a dog.

I still have plenty to do in the game too!
Oh and I called out that gif person and he posted a link to a youtube video in the comment section of his gif.
Spelunky on PC is absolutely worth it, especially at its current price, though I would also highly, highly recommend The Swapper. If you're at all capable, get both.
Oh, really? Never mind then. The Swapper it is.
Zellard, I'd rather not double-dip if I can help it. I only wanted to know if the PC version was superior to the PS3 version in terms of feature-set, is all. If it isn't, I'll just stick to the PS3 version and get something else instead.

Given William's propensity to walk all over the keyboard to 'help' me with my gaming and pc doings, that's entirely appropriate!
You done good. I hope you enjoy it as much as I am enjoying it.

Fall of Cybertron is gonna be one of those games I regret not picking up right now isn't it.
mumblemumblemumblememglekalDUCKTALES
I haven't had problems with the game crashing, I don't play Multiplayer, and I've no idea about achievements since I don't much care for them.

Wrack because I own the other two and Ducktales was already on sale.
Bit on Spacebase. I like Double Fine. Surely they wouldn't do a bait and switch on me like they did with Brutal Legend. Or terrible mechanics like Costume Quest. Or give me terrible repetition like Stacking.
just kidding, I enjoyed all those games. Except Brutal Legend. fuck that game
Licensed game, JaseC logic dictates you buy it.

Nah, you need about 100 hours in Warband to be cool

same.
Tell me about it.
It's a ton of fun to play, at least it was on the Xbox.
It'll wipe out my wallet though.

Oh I will
. FTL is having a rest and I'm deep into XCOM again so we'll have to see how close that gets to my FTL playtime by the time I feel like a gaming palate cleanser.I just voted for Another World actually. You're welcome.
Right, bed for me! N'night boys and girls. Be nice to each other!
It's weird. I got it for $15 for 360 a couple months back and just finally got around to playing it yesterday. Pretty fun game all around. I was surprised that there's actually stealth sections in a Transformers game and they're not terrible lol
