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.
Okay so if I'm reading this right, this is just a launcher that connects people to an online gambling website where you buy in with real cash? Seems kinda... odd... to see this kind of stuff on Steam.
I've now seen everything.

Saw it a long time ago when it was announced for Xbox. It bringed a lot of controversy.
As a Spanish who hates bullfighting, as long as they aren't real bulls, I'm ok with it.
Add my recommendation on the pile here, the puzzle design is great and the artstyle is gorgeous.
Loving the no handholding and letting you learn mechanics through trial-and-error on easy puzzles to figure out how you're supposed to use the mechanic.

It's too obvious. That's why it's a trap

I read the achievement list and apparently it does.
Time to learn unity and make my hyper-realistic dog fighting game!

It says it does...
Didn't you read the last sentence?

I will be there for both of these!
Aye.
And, if they do well enough with this 'ere weird, great-looking physics driven explosions-galore game, they're going to develop a proper Burnout 3 (spiritual, duh) sequel.
So... Pls.
In it for both. Game Nights are always fun.

it's the normal full tilt client you can download from their website, it doesn't connect to an online website nor is there gambling.. it's like a f2p game where you get x number of chips a day or something, or have the option to buy more to play more
there is no real gambling

You guys gotta admit the fact that Toro doesn't support PSVR is pretty bullshit and is the only reason I am not buying it.
Yeah, the major difference here is that with gambling you have the possibility of getting money.
Full Tilt cuts out the middleman and just takes your money.

Put me up as a Temp for both.
Already at 9 finished games for the 52 games a year challenge. I'm going to do it!
That's because Games Workshop is giving out the licence to pretty much everyone who wants to use it, nowadays.

Right so I went and dug out the 25th OT Steam Spectacular Thread and here was the list of posted in every Steam thread up to that pount (was July 14 up to then)
Posted in every single previous Steam thread (Past 24 threads) said:
If you adjust that with the data I gathered up from 2015 that just leaves
Of course there's still the threads from July 2014 through to December 2014 to account for (and possible name changes since the July 14 OT) if any of those above didn't post in them but the field is getting shorter.
What are you talking about? It says it right there.
Welp, sorry for my crappy reading skills, I was looking at the screenshots and couldnt see one where you controller the bull

Did all of that M&M money mean nothing to you?

looks like Blow went out and bought different AMD cards, sound cards (?), and other hardware to try and reproduce issues so they can get fixed
That's one way to do it. Happy they are troubleshooting and will be patching it as fast as possible.

This is more interesting than it should be ( -_-)
Something doesn't add up, it's kind of a lot to do for a public that is 90% pirates...

Review Thing (Spoiler Free)
Just beat The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky. Took me about 31 hours to complete the game with a sample size of the side quests. So for those who don't know TiTs is a JRPG made by falcolm. The same studio well known for the Ys series. I felt the game was very reminiscent of NICHE PSX era RPGs with some more modern trappings in it to make things easier. Such as a difficulty selector and being able to save anywhere (aside from cut-scenes & battles). The game even auto save's while playing in case you ever needed to go further back for whatever reason. The battle system is grid based and turn based. I haven't exactly played a JRPG like that before this so it's hard to compare it to anything I know of. It's not too crazy to understand however. You move around the battle space to hit enemies, and if they're out of reach you just move closer to them. Certain spells and attacks can hit more than one enemy so long as they're in the attacks radius. Spells however take two turns to be cast in most cases and will use EP (mana points). With the speed depending on numerous factors (sometimes you can prepare a spell and the next ordering will have you cast). The battle order I would compare to FFX's side bar. Which lets you know who will be going next. This however can be manipulated if you have enough points to use your special which is tied to CP (Think FF7 limit Break). You fill this bar from attacking or getting attacked. It can either be saved to 100 (Or even 200 for a stronger version) for a special attack or can be used to cast arts which are special moves that takes away from the CP bar. The cool thing about the special attack is that it can be used at any time. So you can attack and then use the CP right after that attack, or maybe unleash before you think the enemy might attack and kill you (which resets the CP to 0). It adds a nice little layer of planning to the overall system. In addition to that the Quartz system (Which reminded me of FF7s Materia) was nice to mess around with. Enemies drop numerous types of quartz which can then be used tobuy Orbal Quartz that have different functions (Such as Attack 1 which boosts attacks and gives you a fire attack). Which can be mixed and match to unlock other sorts of spells and attributes.
The big draw to the game is by far it's story. While it still runs into some typical JRPG tropes, the majority of it is handled quite well. As you progress it really feels like the world world around these character's grow. It was interesting to go back to towns and talk to people about what I had just accomplished. Rather than seeing some typical NPC chats. It adds a lot of flavor to the game as do the character's themselves. I was very impressed how interested I was in these character's and the relationships they developed (Especially for the main two protagonist's Estelle and Joshua). It was a major driving factor in wanting to see what the story held for them. If you ask anyone who has played it, the character's are usually what is remembered most and for good reason. I might not have talked about the story much, but I really don't want to spoil it for anyone. Since it's by far the best part about the game. However I do have some complaint's with the biggest being related to the battle system which can feel a tad slow (wish there was a 2x speed option or something). Aside from that if you're not doing side-quests (Or not many), you'll be playing with a bit of a tight wallet. Also dungeons can get a bit confusing with the free camera (Since there is no map), even with the compass present. So it's best to keep it always pointed north. With all of that out of the way I really enjoyed the game and it's a easy recommend at $20 with it being even easier at $10 (Which is it's usual sale's price). I'll be starting on chapter 2 sometime soon, since i'm very interested in seeing where this story goes.
Performance: I had some weird stuttering at random places on the game, but I was too lazy to look into the cause. Which I am sure could have been fixed with some tinkering. The port itself is solid and aside from some random UI elements, most of it scales quite well at least to 1080p which is what I played at.
