Speaking of Whispering Willows, this game looks so good.



It's supposed to be a horror puzzle game that focuses heavily on its narrative. The crux of the gameplay seems to be that you can make an "astral projection" of the main character's spirit to solve puzzles, switching back and forth between forms, helping spirits pass on, etc.

It's set to release tomorrow, looking forward to impressions of it.

Don't all the recent TT games run like ass on consoles?

To be fair, they don't run that well on computers either.

 

[MarcoZombieCannon]

Don't all the recent TT games run like ass on consoles?

TWD onwards all run pretty horribly.

 

[Stumpokapow]

Microids needs to get off their asses and do an actual port of Syberia to Mac, not a lame mobile version. I got excited to play it after finishing Beneath A Steel Sky, but every single hotspot's visible in the Mac version, which takes away some of the challenge already.

Heh, I'd rather they pour 100% of their resources into making Syberia III

 

[DaBargainHunta]

So its fighting game style combat. :/

I don't do well with dem fightans.

Yuck. If it's that horrible "left left right up button" bullshit, my hype is completely deflated.

 

[Chance Hale]

Damn didn't realize that Wolf Among Us was already at episode 5. Best on Computer or on Playstation?

The PC version runs on a toaster and allows for easily downsampling/other AA at 60 FPS where the PS3 version is a gitchy, sub 30 FPS juttery mess. Your choice. Telltale games are usually pretty bad on the consoles sadly.

 

[iosefe]

Good thing I stopped posting so much for a few days, staying at the top of that list for the whole thread would have been embarrassing. >_>

wow. I've actually cooled my posting down a bit the last few days or so... but still.. damn >_>

Shaaamee...

 

[yGray]

Damn didn't realize that Wolf Among Us was already at episode 5. Best on Computer or on Playstation?

well it obviously runs the best on PC if you have a decent rig but it's all about what you prefer to play on.

 

[Hugstable]

The PC had the save problem for Walking Dead Season 1 for awhile didn't it?

 

[Deitus]

They definitely run like ass on last gen consoles. No idea about PS4/XBO, but I'd have to assume it would be at least slightly better.

 

[Shalashaska]

The PC had the save problem for Walking Dead Season 1 for awhile didn't it?

Yep it did.

 

[billmcdougal]

Started The Wolf Among Us Episode 1 last night. The presentation is great, but could be slightly faster so far. Very interesting though.

 

[Rhaknar]

quicklook of the recently released Long Night, looks cool

 

[derExperte]

Never got fixed.

 

[RavenValor95]

So if you missed the news, the new Steam beta does some cool things:



This means no double GTA/Civ entries and:



They added a new sorting feature that can help fix the order of some games. It'll require them to go in and change stuff in the registry, so don't expect a wide change overnight.

Oh wow, I'm honestly surprised they got around to fixing this.
It had been like that for years I figured that's just how it would be, but I'm glad it finally got fixed.

 

[Hugstable]

Shaaamee...

LOL you are like one space under me!

Never got fixed.

Well shit, you'd think they'd have done something about it by now.. Just like VLR on the 3DS, forever doomed to Save Loss issues.

 

[UncleBiz]

one week. get hype.

i'm hyped. looks like a lot of fun

 

[Dragoon En Regalia]

Time to promote Greenlight submissions:

Abatron's pretty interesting, mixing dive-in-and-out FPS shooting combat with a solid overhead RTS.

Five Nights at Freddy's is, as foretold, the late-'80s animatronic-robot-monster survival-horror game you've dreamt of.

 

[Terra_Ex]

New thread already, damn.

one week. get hype.

After seeing this posted repeatedly and subsequently checking out the gameplay trailer I quickly decided that I must own this game asap. Looks really nice and the combat intrigues me.

 

[Dragoon En Regalia]

Heh, I'd rather they pour 100% of their resources into making Syberia III

Why taunt me with this half-assed Mac port at all? :|

I wonder if they'll fix the vanilla vs. GOTY edition double entry issue. I have Dragon Age: Origins (vanilla and Ultimate edition) twice and it drives me insane.

Good Luck!

Wow, crazy giveaway!

 

[MrTeachwell]

I didn't know they had number 3 in development, although reading it is a 'real time 3d' game sort of nulls my interest a bit. I know technology is currently in a state where current real time 3d can look as good as the static 3d images used in older point and click games but I think I will always prefer the old style. That is unless they do a pseudo 2d rendered background where it's actually real time 3d but a semi-locked perspective to give the impression of a pre-rendered background.

 

[pahamrick]

Got some good news about work soo..

I dedicate this post to Gravelord_Nito.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

quicklook of the recently released Long Night, looks cool

I saw Jim Sterling's video on the game, it looks sort of interesting, but the little intro comic cutscene went by so fast that you can barely read the subtitles, and the running looks janky.

 

[Chance Hale]

Any other impressions of Sunless Sea? Only had one person reply yesterday.

 

[S1n1st3r]

Smash Brothers like its hard for you?

Never played Smash. But I'm very bad at all the others, MK, SF, Tekk, SC, KOF, BlazZlu, Sam Sho.

My brother is very much into fighters, so I've played them all except smash. I just cant remember button combinations.

Yuck. If it's that horrible "left left right up button" bullshit, my hype is completely deflated.

THIS! This soooo much.

 

[Fracas]

I felt the same way. I do like it though.

Can't wait to get into ep 2 tonight

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

I accidentally posted in here. Whoops.

Anyway, is there a way to know how much exactly did I pay for a game? I mean, apart from looking through email receipts.

 

[DukeBobby]

Episode 2 is definitely the weakest, but it picks up again after that.

 

[Indignate]

I watched like ten minutes of it before Dota happened but that running animation looked AMAZING.

Then there was that magazine with Clinton on it.

Then there's all the grammar inconsistencies.

I do want to play this for the wrong reasons.

I'm liking it so far. Puzzles have been pretty simple though, but I'm guessing it will get harder later.

Your best bet is to look at the date you bought it and a Steam price history service.

It's kind of annoying if you bought a ton of stuff in your cart on one day :/

I did not actually dream of this of know I wanted such a thing, but I'll eagerly vote for this now that I know I do.

Well that's the thing about Smash Bros, you don't need to memorize anything. All of your moves are done with a combination of a single direction input and a single button press. Super simple. Not that there isn't plenty of depth there as well.

I haven't much followed Abyss Odyssey, but if it's being compared to Smash Bros, expect it to be incredibly easy to pick up, but difficult to master.

You can go to your Steam Account information, and it will list every single purchase you've ever made and how much you spent. However, if you bought multiple things at the same time, it won't itemize them and tell you how much each was.

Have they mentioned a price yet?

Does look interesting, and I'd give it a shot if the price is right.

oh this is out? This and Claire, 2d horror games bringing it lately

It all ends up mashing buttons for me. I just make Donkey Kong pound the ground.

 

[Halo 2]

Is there anything else like marlow briggs on steam?

 

[MarcoZombieCannon]

oh this is out? This and Claire, 2d horror games bringing it lately

I haven't dabbled too heavily in 2D horror games. I probably should since there aren't really any in the 3D variety that I'm into releasing lately. (gotta beat Outlast + DLC though)

 

[BinaryPork2737]

Have they mentioned a price yet?

Does look interesting, and I'd give it a shot if the price is right.

I'm assuming that it's going to be $15, since that's the price on the official website. A little above my range for the rest of July, but I'm still looking forward to picking it up at some point.

 

[Rhaknar]

Is there anything else like marlow briggs on steam?

character action games?

well the DMC games, Enslaved are the big ones

Garshap and X-Blades are fucking terrible. but the sequel / remake of X-Blades called Blades of Time is actually decent I thought, and its in a bundlestars right now

 

[Sarcasm]

I may actually buy the DD, Stronghold Crusader.

Just watched a polish dude stream it..of course I don't know polish but still.

 

[maneil99]

Didn't get to go get my steam wallet cards for my giveaway because I got my eyebrows done. I think I am going to die from pain.
In other news, Crysis is fun

I may actually buy the DD, Stronghold Crusader.

It's really good, holds up well. I've been playing that and the original Stronghold HD

 

[WinterDemons]

Five Nights at Freddy's is, as foretold, the late-'80s animatronic-robot-monster survival-horror game you've dreamt of.

That looks really creepy.

 

[Strider]

same. I suck at fighting games. I get lucky and beat people every now n then though bc of my unpredictability lol

 

[MUnited83]

Not out yet.(review copy here). The art is absolutely gorgeous.

Well, that's exactly what I want though.

 

[WhiskeyDiver]

Stealing my post bro. Not cool.

Edit: jk keep spreading the gospel.

The main character faces quite the interesting dilemma. She's damned if she does, others are damned if she doesn't. I'm wish listing this one for future purchase.

 

[Hugstable]

Is there anything else like marlow briggs on steam?

Like Character Action games? They got DMC4, DmC, Metal Gear Rising: Revengence, and Enslaved.

 

[old manatee]

Oh man, I know it may be short lived, but I never expected to see full NeoTokyo servers again.
