IIRC South Park: The Stick Of Truth page didn't add that the game had achievements until very late because people were querying whether it would have them and cards. I think it's just a case of "we'll update when we sort it out".

Played Civ 5 for the first time. It's probably the ultimate no sleep game.
awesome game. Not so awesome lack-of-sleep-headache the following day.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?

I'm ashamed of SR3 because it wasn't anywhere near as good as sleeping dogs

Is that Brian Crecente's Steam name?
Woah, not many replies but huge replies, thanks for your input guys.
So...
See that's why I insisted on the 'for me' part of the post. The series is quite funnily really diverse in what is or isn't hard to people. Everyone will have his arch-nemesis but it will vary from player to player. So for me, on a normal new game (important detail I assume), Ornstein and Smough were jokes. Plain and simple. I was aware of the threat but they didn't live a second up to their terrifying reputation. Manus on the other hand, is wiping my ass real hard. Different players, skill sets, that's one of the great aspects of the series if you ask me. Hell, I think the biggest rage I felt for a "nobody" boss was for the knight in Sen Fortress. God, I could cartography the castle's moat, falling off the arena was my specialty.
I will give you that I was more venting than saying the game is unfair. Why, it must be the fairest series of game there is difficulty-wise. I just won't give you Old King Allant. As much as I totally understand why one could say he is no big deal, I draw a line in the sand at leeching multiple times my hard earned levels in the same combat. Yeah, I could play better, but still, line in the sand ;-)
Pretty sure I said that 1% of the series is bullshit FOR me, total subjectivity was not named but implied, and I explained why it's bullshit FOR me. Hope you can cope.
Thanks man, I will totally have a thought for your good wish when I will retry the boss later today. I suspect that he will be trouble as long as I haven't learned exactly to evade the 6-hit combo and the frontal darkness attack (rain and lateral are good but he as that habit of finishing my attempts with the frontal one.

Thank you for the advices. The equipment one in particular could be useful.

Just keep at it man, that boss is meant to be hard. I know I had trouble with him to begin with. All I can say is try Co-op and also try summoningSif, as he helps take the heat off you for a while.
When you beat him it will feel glorious

He sure is an expert.

I'm sort of in the same boat, except it may be sooner, depending on something like a bonus or an unexpected small windfall.
But seeing how 2014 has been greeting me... the only falls I'm getting are pitfalls.

Does modbot work with things like Xbox codes? Got a Borderlands 2 code I want to get rid of in some other thread place.

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.
Yeah, it should work just make sure to follow the directions and set the THREADURL.

Not really. Games get posted with next to no features and then later get updated all the time.
please please please...Guerilla is the top of my steam wishlist
Aye, that it does. I recommend using either a dedicated thread for XBLA or the FREE to a good home thread

you're supposed to be pausing/micromanaging every character
that is unless you made something ridiculous like a kensai which just kills everything

Red Faction 1 and 2 are still the superior RF games. Funny how the series had a different identity every sequel
1-Half-Lifeesque FPS
2-Quakeesque FPS
3-Sandbox
4-Linear TPS
1-Half-Lifeesque FPS
2-Quakeesque FPS

Note that if you're unlucky with the GFWL lottery, it will fuck up Guerilla until it's unplayable, either by getting stuck in an endless update loop or downloading a broken version that crashes after some time.
(Or at least that's what it did back when I tried to play it couple of years ago)
Someone was just asking for a giveaway for this last night.
my GFWL should be all up to date thanks to all the stuff i did for Dark Souls 1
guilty as charged.

$5.99 for all of them (with Steam code): http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K558E1W/?tag=neogaf0e-20
those are the best kind of cards hehehe
Not in the US now, but going to be soon. Entered!
Unless its locked to only run in US?
And here I thought you would name Zimos mission.
This is a weak spirit.
Now I'm curios.
No. It does require a bit of knowledge about how D&D works though. Since it drops you in at a high level, there's a lot going on right away. Once you understand the systems it's not hard.
Am playing enhanced.
Using an Archer and micromanaging every character, but every now and again there's some huge beast that for the dear life of me I can't hit. I don't know if it's horrible luck with dice rolls, or that I'm missing really big items or something.
my summer sale rule was "don't spend more than a couple bucks on a game likely to be in a future bundle"....i stuck to that rule and dammit i'm still being punished! hey at least i get to give the key away here
I'm only halfway through the game. You should never rush yourself.
I finished it. Are you talking about the last boss?

I think it can only be activated if you are in the US
i know. i'm strapped for cash and we have digital taxes, so i would have to wait for some m&ms money
never hurts to enter, though
Lol thank you, it was bothering me not knowing what it was. Although I expected something else entirely.

Someone help explain the stuff, I'm in a drinking game right now.
Great Giveaway! I think I played Red Faction 1 back when it came out on PS2 but haven't tried the others before.
Damn that hard? How many stages in the game?
do you have any shovel knight cards you want to trade :3 ?

Depends. There are a lot of overpowered enemies that can annihilate your party, but there are also a ton of overpowered spells (and characters) that can make even the highest difficulty setting a breeze.
I haven't played the Enhanced Edition yet (heard a lot of conflicting reviews - makes me thing it's still buggy), but the original is amazing and even better with mods.
