Now that I have my Laptop back I should be getting into some online gaming I guess and join some of the Gaf gaming nights.
EDIT: Team Fortress or L4D2...

Left4Dead2 all day 'ery day. And I played both today with gaffers. Left4Dead2 is just more fun. Especially some fan campaigns.
But damn it's late. I am gonna hopefully make a big post tomorrow with good campaign, mods, skins and webms/videos.

I need a 4th for Payday 2. I got Corrosive and Huggie with me!

Everytime Payday 2 is being played I regret getting Payday 1 during sale.
We should play L4D2 sometime. Man, I like that game.
Ok, I can't wait till tomorrow. Here some pics.

[Speevy]

I think we should have weekly indie release raffles in which the most sought after indies get raffled on or around their release date.

The idea would be that people get interested in a game they didn't know was coming out because they didn't read the OP, hadn't seen the trailers, whatever.

Someone could grab a Russian-traded key for a modest price and put it up there,and the winner could write a review of their newly won game.

What do you guys think?

but...we already raffle off every new indie game?

 

[Grief.exe]

How is Invisible War behind the BTA?

I played the game at launch on the original Xbox and would like to revisit it at one point. I will try my luck with modbot, otherwise I might wait for a separate sale as I really don't need much in the bundle.

Do we? I think we're more inclined to raffle off stuff if it's in a bundle or on sale.

It would draw more attention to new releases for sure.

I got the humble bundle key for Broken Sword 2 from this raffle but the key was already taken.

ive seen freedom planet, olliolii, halfway, abyss odyssey, clown bot, shantae giveaways

the rest of the recent indie releases were all bundle games that most of us are waiting for keys

This probably happened because the user didn't realize he had bought a bundle for himself rather than purchasing a gift.

Well you could fund it by people doing a pay in kind of thing by paying 1 steam key to enter the raffle which would also fund the giveaways but there'd probably be gambling issues for the site.

If you could ensure the winner would do a proper review it sounds like a very interesting idea. A lot of people in this thread though do give impressions of new releases just through posting. That's supposed to be one of the main focuses of the thread anyway. But you're offering people more incentive.

Looks like loads of fun. Dl'd. I want toadd you on Steam but Gunstarheroes77 cannot be found?

 

[Vazra]

Here's a relink to TB's Abyss Odyssey video.

It has piked my interest, can any of you sell it to me more then this video can? What do you personally like about it?

What I like
- Combat system is fun once you learn to use the tools you are given.
- Capture any enemies you fight and use them. Some of these enemies are OP as hell so its fun to wreck stuff on the way by getting strong monsters/enemies
- 3 Unique Main Characters
- Seeing progress on leaderboards is nice and since the game is new you have chances to be on good positioning.
- Developers will add more content over the year
- The developers are really nice and really chatty on the steam discussions they are aware of the feedback on what people want to see the game add or fix.

As for the negative part (I dont dislike all of it but some might agree with it)
- Game is short (IMO made for replayability)
- Netcode needs to be fixed
- Game needs more content or at least make the community aspect progress faster to unlock the extra content.
-There are a few rare glitches. (Enemies not attacking you if you go to the fog wall, not being able to move after being revived)
-Vs Mode is currently offline (Will be added later but the team needs to fix the netcode first before adding online to this.


I feel the game was worth of my 10 dollars. I have spent 40 hours playing the game. Its a good game that could be outstanding depending how the game progression goes and how the team adds new content to the game.

Yeah I think we would probably run into issues if we had people pay into a pot, and the mods would be forced to close us down.

You know what would probably be full of fun times for GAF? Gmod prop hunt and/or Gmod Murder.

It would be nice to have more reviews of newly released games/ games released under the radar.

On another note has anyone played The Banner Saga? How do you rate it?

Are you using any software. Just guessing here, but Magicka is probably not compatible with xinput.

I don't have any of the Injustice achievements, so I guess I'll play that.

Serious Stream: http://twitch.tv/morningbus
Join the Serious Stream directly by clicking here

What’s going on here?
SteamGaf sent Morningbus over 6 months worth of M&M cable credit codes. He agreed to stream Serious Sam 1 to 3, a series of games he has often compared unfavorably against a swift kick to the key areas.

But people like Serious Sam? Hell, I like Serious Sam!
Come, sip deep of his essence and let him pull back the veil behind the greatest fraud perpetrated in the history of the world.

Wait…
Just watch the stream.

No, hold up a sec. Why are people giving Morningbus their M&M debit cards I heard so much about?
That M&M promotion initially started off offering both $6 debit cards and $6 cable credits. However, the internet being what it is depleted those cards within just a few weeks of the promotion and now they are only giving away the cable credits. Some people have no need for this type of code and some people are just having fun seeing exactly how far Morningbus can take it.

Can I join in?
Certainly! Just join the Unofficial NeoGAF Mumble server (details here) and join the Serious Stream room. You can also chat through the Twitch.TV link from above.

Special thanks to the following for providing codes since the last scoreboard:

Shadownet: secret government program or hair care product? Either way, it gave me 1 code.

BinaryPork2737: is a greedy little piggy, providing an additional code!

Default Two has depleted my strategic reserve of "default" jokes. This is the default response for him providing 1 code.

XClash: is not just a contributor, he's also the community moderator on the twitch channel! I swear he did not get this position through giving me 1 code.

Chocobro is making it choco-rain with 1 code.

Stallion Free pushed us over the edge with his code. This is not the first time "Stallion Free" and 'edging" have appeared in the same sentence.

We need a 4th for Payday 2 if anyone wants to get rich. (Payday Rich)

Every time people start talking about Payday 2 like this, all I can think of is this song.

Going to have to check that game out one of these days (is that the one with the ton of DLC you have to buy?), and maybe reinstall L4D2. It might be fun to get into some games with SteamGAF.

Yeah, I'd need to go get CSS if that's the case.

Steam ID: quote to reveal Just finished The Wolf Among Us. My girlfriend and I really enjoyed it, but it does feel like there was even less "adventure" elements than TWD S1 (haven't played S2 yet), but I think I'm ok with that

Ending of the finale spoilers:

Spoiler

[/QUOTE]

I wonder what percentage of players that spoiler happened to, because I experienced the same thing - and I played the previous episodes only a week or so before Ep5.

But if you want to know what the spoiler meant (or at least the general idea of what it means), here you go:
(The Wolf Among Us spoilers)

Spoiler

Nerissa uses the same phrases as Faith (aka the Fable Donkeyskin), the girl killed in Episode 1. In Episode 2, they go into Donkeyskin's backstory and it's revealed that, in her fable, she disguised herself as a donkey to avoid her terrible life.

The implication is that Faith and Nerissa were glamoured as one-another, and that, ultimately, Faith is alive. The "Faith" killed in Episode 1 was actually Nerissa, who was glamoured as Faith. It ultimately explains a lot of the fake Nerissa's motivations for helping solve the case.

At the end of Episode 5, Bigby realises what happened and can decide to persue fake Nerrisa or not, presumably leading into Season 2 somehow.

I'm number 2 on my friend leader board for bike jump in Sleeping Dogs with my 100m glitch jump on a scooter. I can only assume nbnt's 500m jump just got a better glitch.

This is a feature I like. Having the leader board appear in game when doing the stuff is a pretty great addition.
