We put too many eggs in the Mr. Orange basket, folks. I HEREBY DECLARE I AM NEW ACTING STEAM THREAD/GOTY OVERLORD, PLEDGE FEALTY NOW.

EDIT: I take this back, I'm not mature enough for this sort of responsibility in my life.

I've got to stop looking at the Dying Light posts. I'm starting to want it.

And you should, it's much better than DI mainly because this time they got the pacing right. I'm near the end and the second half was different enough to not become a boring slog.

I just want rising 2 if/when it happens to be about grey fox.

won't happen since they had to scrap the idea of it taking place in the past for revengeance so they could do the stuff they wanted to do.. with platinum they will only go further in the next installment so that means it will be even more in the futrue

I quite liked these posts from the (now locked) MGR2 'tease' thread:

Neiteio said:
This game better have Herr Dok-tor!

Also, bring back Armstrong, I don't care if it doesn't make sense

Actually, have every member of Congress be like Armstrong

Game ends with Raiden fighting all of fucking Congress

The Xtortionist said:
Fucking do it

MECHA ARMSTRONG

IN THE NEO WHITE HOUSE

ON THE MOON

Believe.

Made me buy the game instantly. Sadly I am lack imagination and engineering power, but it's still fun regardless.

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.
Time is weird.

So I woke up this morning to my hosting company having shut down a few of the Enhanced Steam / Idle Master servers... ugh. Everything should be back up now though.

I was wondering why the cheapest price didn't show up. What happened? Was that just arbitrary?

Yeah, just the usual threat prevention stuff. They detected a lot of "unusual traffic", that sort of thing. Some of the servers were still online though so at least not everything was shut down.

No February thread?
MRORANGE is lost. We are cursed to stay in January 2015 forever, with no chance of ever getting Way of the Samurai.

Does that happen often, like, does your provider start to know you?

When are we getting a dongle so we can use the Xbox One controller wirelessly Microsoft!?

Probably never at this point.

I assume since they're heavily hyping Windows 10 and it's cross platform capabilities and streaming from the Xbox One to PC that the console fanboys are going to be pissed if they have to use a wired controller for those features. I also assume Microsoft knows that if they don't release a wireless dongle soon that almost everyone is going to go buy a Dualshock 4 controller to play the latest Win10 exclusive Fable game.

So I'll be surprised if it's not released sometime in the next 4-6 months.

Does that happen often, like, does your provider start to know you?

Usually there's a phase each server goes through where it does it's job for quite a while, then something big happens (like the release of the new version of Enhanced Steam) and the traffic spikes up to crazy levels as everyone's Firefox automatically detects and downloads the new plugin, etc. Since I've brought quite a few new servers online during the last sale, these are the ones that got flagged. I explained that sometimes the traffic will spike on these servers and that's normal, so hopefully the next time it happens they'll just send me a heads up or something without completely shutting them down.

All this Far Cry 4 I've been playing has got me wanting to buy AC Unity now. I don't know what's gotten in to me but the only cure is more Ubisoft open world formula.

Groupees now has its own gifting and trading system.
It doesn't actually check to see if keys have been used or not though (and you can uncheck the "used" checkbox yourself), so...
