Now I'm curious. Looks like ill need to get to DS2 and the DLC soon.
Still sounds pretty good to me. I skipped over it since I had no clue what it was when I got it in the bundle.

Are keyboards allowed in competitions? I guess it needs to be a modified keyboard to work though.

Dementium 2 is the best game there.
Though looking at that bundle you might be better just trying to get that solo.

Need to know the exact specs but it should run fine so long as you don't have an older low end amd/ati card.

getting ready for the hl3 stealth release.
Also, how is Batman AO? Is it more like AA or AC?
I just replayed AA and I forgot how disappointing the final boss. AC is still fresh in my memory from when I replayed a few months ago and I preferred AA's more concise story compared to how AC was too big for its own good.

With Cook, Serve, Delicious! included in that giveaway, I have to point out that Extreme Mode (which is only opened up after you unlock NG+) is hilariously brutal. New orders near-instantly start falling off since customer patience is drastically lower and Super Rush Hour just bombards you with you orders non-stop. If you happen to have something on your menu that takes up more time than it should then tough shit, you're not getting that perfect day. I had to opt for offerings like corndogs or coffee because even beer would take too long in the grand scheme of it all.here you go, guysand sorry it's nothing huge like some of the games that have been given out here lately ... but I really hope someone still finds these games cool
I should try making a .jif at some point to illustrate the difference between the normal and Extreme difficulty. It's intense.
Good morning SteamGaf! So what did I miss? Did I win Batman/Divinity? j/k
This is unfortunate. I was hoping this might be something special. I think I'll watch a video though, since your negatives about the game don't seem to be a big deal to me.
I hope Gods Will Be Watching delivers, unlike this and Halfway.
So I won Unrest in a giveaway (thanks again to MakeshiftChef ) and I promised to write an impression about it.
So I played a little over 30 minutes and the developer mentioned in the Steam forums that this game will last a little longer then 3 hours. It's an point-and-click adventure which focuses completely on the story and the choices you make. The only real gameplay is walking around and talking to other people (I have no problem with that, I love adventure games).
It's in a fictional indian setting with the focus on a city which needs to get through bad times with the help of another race, the "Nagas". You play different characteres and experience their stories.
I love the idea of the game and it's great to see another game with a very unfamiliar setting and new ideas coming to Steam.
So two points are essential for a game like this to make it a good one:
1. Presentation
2. Story
And for me, there lies the problem with the game
1. I'm not a guy who wants to have realistic graphics in every game, but when you are using a graphic style from older generations like the Wadjeteyegames, then you need to make sure, that the style is atmospheric. And with this game it just isn't the case. In the Steam forums a lot of people seemed to be fine with the style, but imho I don't like the style. Might be a personal thing so everyone interested in this game should see for themself if the style is ok.
2. The second point is the story. It is completely told through text boxes. And this might be a personal opinion again, but I didn't like the story so far. It's nothing special and the game does nothing to keep me interested. Also you switch characters really fast and can't feel for them when something happens. A lot of people can be ok with the story, but for me it's not interesting enough to keep going. Especially after hearing that the game just takes 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
So after all I really like the idea and I'm a big adventure fan in general, but this game just isn't for me. But I hope I got your interest and maybe you give the game a chance and may be enjoying it

Haven't tried it but JaseC said that you can avoid the regional restriction by using VPN while putting the game into the cart before buying.

Here's the weird thing thought, the Vita thread, which go merged/changed into the PSN thread started to become a safe haven for the Vita owners on this board (I know because I am among their number!) but for quite a few of them due they only posted the vast majority of the time in that thread, due to the less than stellar view the Vita has with some people on GAF. What ensued then was chatter would centre around games on the Vita but due to next to nothing coming out would soon go OT (and sometimes very, very OT). By and large the Vita thread housed a very insular community that when I would have a look in there I would come out sometimes feeling like I might need therapy.
I'm not privy to the exact reason the Staff chose to merge the thread nor am I concerned as that's not my business. It led to a lot of the posters not being happy about the decision but couldn't see that discussion wasn't too focused on the Vita and I don't know how many others like me weren't overly keen on posting in there. I believe Cyan tried to encourage the posters to spread their wings and explore this forum to the fullest. I don't know how many folks in here have taken a look at the Off Topic side of these forums but there is a topic for anyone to express themselves in (following the TOS of course). I do admit I gravitate to this thread more than any other but it's where my interests align at present.
Though unlike the Vita and it's handful of games, Steam has a library verging on 4,000 so it's not like we're short on games to discuss let alone the service as a whole. There is shit loads we could rabbit on about and have that as the majority of the discussion. And I get that no matter how hard you try to quash off topic chatter it's never going to die down in it's entity but everyone be mindful of what could happen if it goes to far. Mods and even EviLore has come in here and told us to buck our ideas up before so it's not like it's out of the question again either.
Normal mode of Cook, Serve, Delicious is brutal enough for me :-/.
This game mirrors me in real life. I'm a horrible fucking cook lol.
I still remember when they changed the VitaGAF thread to PSN general. Sad times
. Alot of the discussion there still seems to be Vita though which is nice, cause Vita still needs more exposure.

Gimme a few minutes and ill hook ya up jase.
Arkham Origins is like Arkham City 2.5 in a way. They took what got added in Arkham City and added to that gameplay-wise. The story though is definitely more focused than Arkham City which felt all over the place.

The store is down for me, but the client is still up.
So that Vector game is just absolutely shameless in its cloning of Canabalt, isn't it? Even down to the doves flying off as you run past them.
I don't actually have it yet, but I've gotten the impression from people that it's a top-tier hidden object game. It's one of my main reasons for getting the bundle.

I am curious as well!
I'm not sure why you're so angry at the idea, I've raised a (valid IMO) point that the (sometimes amazing, really) reviews/impressions posted here are being lost to time. Because seriously, do you remember the reviews that were posted 3 threads back? Do you want to go through 200 pages just to see what Dusk Golem thought about Home or Lone Survivor or whatever he was playing at the time?
I've just asked if people would be interested/wouldn't mind in having the reviews from previous/next thread compiled somewhere.
And FYI, I did effin post a game impression yesterday.
PM ModBot with the subject "my full loot" and anything in the message. I counted everything manually, though.
lol, have we been reading the same PSN threads? And what's with you keep saying the Vita has few games or not enough to talk about? lol
The Vita dudes kept things on topic. The problem was that there weren't many of us, so at times there were 10 of us talking about a different game each, and so discussion was all over the place. There were hardly enough of us to move the discussion of a certain game to it's OT since at most there'd be 1-4 people talking about it. And they were right to be angry. Joining up with the PS3/PS4 threads just made discussion even more fractured, since there were more people discussing things.
And what does this have to do with "spreading or wings" and visiting other parts of the forum? lol

Modbot tutorial that explains this: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=121853350&postcount=5
Send a message to ModBot with the subject "my loot"
Edit: Actually, looks like there is something new, maybe not in the tutorial yet. For the detailed list you need to send to Modbot with subject "my full loot"
He's not angry at the idea of collecting reviews in one thread, he's annoyed by the fact that you even had to come up with the idea because good posts are being lost in a flood of posts about pancakes and Elizabeth Olsen.
Well, I don't feel like I have been around long enough to offer any kind of valid opinion on what Steam thread should be like and what direction it should take in the future, so here's some game impressions instead.
Finished the first part of Dark Souls 2 DLC. Still love the game. All bosses were fun, had some serious trouble with the
Still had a lot of fun. Disappointed that
Also slightly disappointed at the new gear, at least the stuff I found. Not really rivaling anything I have from base game, so still rocking the same gear after I finished it.
The level design is great. The way it's layered reminds me a lot of Undead Burg. But it also has this weird claustrophobic feel to it, lot of tight corridors and such. Love it. Difficulty feels about the same as the base game. I'm still on NG there though, I can imagine that on NG+ and onwards some of the bosses would be pretty hairy.

trio, because of how super aggressive they are. Those two guys are just on you all the time, and then when you think you have a second to breath and take a sip of that sweet sweet estus nectar, you'll probably get a big god damn arrow on your back.
cutting the tail from the dragon boss didn't give me a weapon.

I can understand where you're coming from. I feel playing games shouldn't feel like a chore, so people shouldn't force themselves to play Game X if they're really jonesing for some Game Y. It's not always possible to tell what's going to grab us at any given moment, either. (Case in point: I've had Binary Domain since November. I've been looking forward to playing it for ages, but only this past week did I actually get around to installing it. I started the game, liked it a lot... and then I had a good run in Risk of Rain. I unlocked a new character I really enjoy playing (Acrid) that's opened up more of the game for me, so now I keep going back to it instead of Binary Domain when I have time to play.)
I've said for awhile now that a backlog shouldn't feel like an obligation, and that extends to people feeling obliged to play something now because it was a gift. Better that they play it when they really want to, and are going to get the most enjoyment out of it. That's the whole point, after all.

Do you like hidden objects games? This has a bit more going on like using an item at the right place and other logic puzzles but overall it's mostly that. If yes and you want something to spend maybe three hours in without getting challenged all too much buy it. Artifex Mundi's games also look relatively nice, I'd say they're among the best in that genre.

About how long did it take you to run through it?
What? Where is this flood of pancakes? This topic has been alot of Steam discussion recently, but are you seriously just gonna pick out a few moments and posts and call it a flood? Alot of people are talking about Steam games all the time and there are new games getting released everyday, and just today 2 new bundles.
Seems pretty interesting so far. I like the gameplay even though I'm not a big fan of the animations or the artstyle much

Yeah, I had to do so to buy Football Manager 2014 late last year (Sega, surprisingly, decided to belatedly remove the runtime-level region-lock on the BR sub). FlyVPN is free and has servers in South America.
