Oh boy this won't end up well for them
Pre-order Evolve for Xbox One and gain instant access to Wraith
Pre-order Evolve for Xbox One and gain instant access to Wraith
If I ran that game site, I would not run something like that. It reads like a PR release copy/pasted.
SHIT - somehow when I sent my GOTY message to Mr Orange, I missed out Shovel Knight, which is definitely one of my favourites. Sent him an edited message but no idea if he accepts corrections. Can't believe I forgot that for a moment considering what a joy it was to play
For a second I thought you said Neko was better than Shovel Knight but thats me just getting up reading things poorly. Phew.
I may be a weaboo who clusters everyone's activity feed with If My Heart Had Wings, but not even I am that deranged.

Do you guys think I'll have issues adding a 4 gb stick to two 2 gb sticks if they're the same brand/speed/voltage?

I totally forgot I still have this coupon. I tried to give it away once but nobody wanted it, and now there's three hours to go. It's 75% off "I, Zombie." So if you want a game for 50 cents, add me as a friend: http://steamcommunity.com/id/mallomar/
Then hit me up with a message and I'll hand it off to you, no strings attached.

I dont know what is If My Heart Had Wings so I need to check on it before making the next statement. Also perhaps a cup of coffee might help me get my thoughts properly.
Oh god, I've just finished the *Hyun-Ae route in Hate Plus...
Geez, it was even better than the original game. Like, it would surely go on my 2013 GOTY were I to play it then.
If you don't have it yet, get it. All time low at the moment to boot ($2.49/2.49).
Just trust me on this. Wonderfully written, great plot, would stand proudly among many great sci-fi novels.
That's the biggest reason I actually like when people post their lists, there's no way I can remember exactly what I've played this year and which came out this year (not to mention that very few of the games I played this year actually qualify), so seeing other people's lists reminded me of what was eligible and I wanted to give consideration to.
Edit - My List
Game 5 (1 point) : BattleBlock Theater
Game 4 (2 points) : Transistor
Game 3 (3 points) : Card City Nights
Game 2 (4 points) : Endless Legend
Game 1 (5 points) : The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth

Phew I nearly missed Steam GOTY voting - just did a quick check of what I played this year and probably missed a better game or two, but whatever.
Game 5 (1 point) : Shadow of Mordor
Game 4 (2 points) : Lords of the Fallen
Game 3 (3 points) : Wolfenstein TNO
Game 2 (4 points) : Legend of Heroes - Trails in the Sky
Game 1 (5 points) : Dark Souls 2

Dual channel probably won't work anymore (2x2+2x4 would be okay) so you'll lose a tiny bit of performance. Other than that, no.

Killer is Dead got added to the anime sale. I keep hoping the second Half Minute Hero game will get added, but no luck so far.
Just changed my modem from the one Comcast included to a Motorola SB 6141
Gotta love a speed boost thats basically double what you had.

Really puts things into perspective when some folks have upload speeds 3 times as fast as my download speed 
Hahaha Watch Dogs to appear in the top 10 now then!
My top 3 were initially Resident Evil 4, Valkyria Chronicles and in third Metal Gear Rising but then I was omitting stuff that actually got initially released this year. I'll chalk them up as honourable mentions but seeing as RE4 and VC are two of my favourite games full stop I'd probably end up including them out of principle.

was just gonna say
I bought a refurbished modem, so I am kind of wondering whether it is still attached to another account. I expected a performance boost, but double?
BTW, no matter your service provider you should invest in your own modem. Not only do they have better speeds, but the modem rental fees are ~$120 per year.

Maybe it's a good thing zkylon hasn't been around lately.
Nope, that's normal. My speeds doubled a year ago, and now I hit 120-124 down (~14mb/s on Steam).

I remember entering that forest area in Dark Souls for the first time and looking up to see the Moonlight Butterfly just hanging out, thinking "WTF is that?!".
The reason I don't only game on PC.
Man.. that looks like Trypophobia, Scopophobia, and Arachnophobia all rolled into one nice package.

Are you sure you're not in those "reboot your comcast modem because they doubled everybody speeds but it only works if you reboot your modem" regions?
Most of san francisco had that happen to them recently.
I don't know how Comcast handles modem switching, but on Mediacom I had to register the modem by going to a website and then it verified the plan I was using.
Did you go from a DOCSIS 2.0 to a DOCSIS 3.0 modem? It's possible those were the speeds you were supposed to be getting but your modem didn't support it.
I have mentioned it alreadyy? Oh damn.

Damn, I forgot RE4.
Oh well, I'd rather focus on games that were actually released for the first time in 2014.
Already too many to choose from.
Really tempted to pick this up as I didn't spend much over the winter sale and I feel like I would play it right now.
Your old speed was the cap of what those modems could handle most likely, I ran into the same thing when I upgraded my internet. The old standard was right around what you're showing there.

It's that damn second form.
I get to it and it just goes so fast that before I can wrap my head around it i'm dead.
Guess I gotta keep pushing at it. The first form is nothing now.
Just finished up Jakes campaign in re6. I like Jake, he's a pretty good character and has some neat melee mechanics that make him stand out from the rest
. Again, as in every re6 campaign, the quality is wildly inconsistent (random dumb stealth sequences that aren't fun, more bland vehicle segments, dumb and boring on rails helicopter chase segment) in every chapter. After 16 hrs I'm so conflicted on whether I like this game or not.
character action game starring Jake pls capcpom
Not sure if want. I'm cool with the difficulty, but this game is lying pretty hard in these kind of... desings?, the same as the others, I know, but that has always been what put me off a bit.

It's a cool game if you like weird action games. I enjoyed my time with it
Not sure, but I don't live in California.

I put the two pack in my cart as soon as the sale went up, but I still haven't pulled the trigger. I spent way too much in the winter sale :|

Just finished Hexcells Plus. The second to last one hurt my head a bit, otherwise survived intact. Just missing something obvious, as always... only took me like 30 minutes to find it, lol.
To Infinite, and beyond.
Yup, that's exactly how it feels to me. I'm excited for Infinite. Well, I mean, as excited as i can be to be staring down another set of math/logic puzzles.
Hmmm. I never played Risk of Rain pre-patch... but this version definitely feels like 'no joke'. I didn't have much problem clearing the first stage, but stage 2, yikes.
Thanks for the update! I can't have mine autoupdate because I have my settings hardcoded, so the notification is great.
