Uhhhh, yeah there was indeed a worse playerHmmm, according to you, I wasn't even the worst -- imagine how much better I'd be if I was comfortable with the controls...
I've never been on a L4D2 server where gamepads were disallowed... if I'd known that, I probably would've given my spot to dot or something.

this too. lets organize this
Hahaha sweet. Yeah I can see it's much more than a bit like Evolved. It also reminds me of one of Dark Sector's muliplayer modes.
So you know we should all install Dark Sector now right?

I'll keep all of these in mind. This sort of game night I think would be a lot of fun once in awhile. Also that greenlight game does look decent enough. So odd more games never tried to expand on the K&L ideas.
One of my biggest disappointments with payday 2 since it would have been perfect for that kind of thing.

Voting for The Ship, Prop Hunt, Trouble in Terrorist Town, Murder
I am not into moba, so dota shall loose.
in last 2 weeks i played couple of new games (most of them thanks to you fellow generous GAFers, so really really thanks again to all of you for sharing and your generosity!)
this is the list of games i played and finished: Bad Bots, Bardbarian, Deadly 30, Grimind, Starlite Academy G-Ball, Circuits, Sequence, Stacking
now, i am aware of my poor reviewing skills so i will try not to bore you much with it nor with my broken english, but i enjoyed three of them from start to finish so much i really felt i should recommend those to everyone who maybe already has those in his library and hasnt touched it yet. i should also clear that i'm not saying the rest are bad games but i do have obsession of unlocking every single achievement in games and with that in mind some game just become sooner or later unfun or even pain, even though they might be good in the core. in short - i had most fun with these:
third best - Grimind
to be honest i didnt even have this platformer on my wishlist because it looked somewhat ugl...hmm lets say.. less appealing than Trine for example. big mistake. this gloomy horrorish atmosphere fits for it perfectly and when the main character said he was afraid for his life, i felt scared too, no matter how pixelated the monsters were. it has fifteen 10-15 minute long levels with checkpoints and only few mildly difficult puzzles. dont get its looks stand in your way. play it at night and chances are you will like it too!
second best - Sequence
this was a very pleasant surprise for me, especially because i was complete rhytm game virgin. never played rocksmith, guitar hero or what have you.. (i think i lack the skill) but im glad i gave this a try. i chose second of four difficulty settings and yet the end of the game felt quite challenging and beating it was quite satisfactory. 7 tiers, each with 3 enemies. each can drop different ingredients with which you "cook" items. yea, its a bit RPG too! but bare with me - it may look nuts and even sound a bit grindy because you may need to beat each enemy 2-4 times before it drops what you need, but here comes the good part - it didnt feel like grind at all. dat music! i really expected i was going to tear my ears off when it gets harder and i would automatically start hate the songs, but i never did. not a single one! really great soundtrack in a fun original rhytm-rpg-stuff game. and it has story, too!
try it, worst thing that can happpen is that you will chill out for a while with some relaxing music during those easy levels. took me 12 hours to get through the game and i dont regret a single one!
and most fun i had with Stacking
i cant advertise this enough. maybe you havent played it because it looked childish to you. maybe 3d puzzlers arent your thing.. whatever the excuse, just give it 10 minutes. it - is - fun. i absolutely love the russian stacking dolls idea made into a game, and well polished game i must add. biggest plus is definitely the fact that each puzzle has up to 6 different solutions, brilliant! the story is good and you can be done with it in 5 hours maybe. it took me almost four times as long because i was looking for every single unique doll for the collection and trying to figure out every single solution to those puzzles. what a one of a kind delight this game was!

I think playing as the humans can be a lot of fun with the right group. It's also terrifying.
The Hidden also reminds me a lot of the Hunter from L4D1. Before they made him useless.
I'll have to see if I can get vertopci to set up a server with custom maps. This could be fun.
This sounds incredible. I want to play it now.

Thats cool!
I still haven't played Dragonfall (I backed the game) and now I'm almost happy I haven't
September it is!
i have it on vita, does that count?
lol no I don't have it either. I do own it on my Wii U though. I don't really worry about playing too many racing games on Steam, but that GTR EVO that was given out for the other day in the PC Gamer giveaway looks pretty cool.

If only it were later I'd love to join up!
So my full impressions of Freedom Planet.
Freedom Planet is a 2D action-platformer that borrows a lot from 16-bit SEGA, Treasure, and Capcom games, but manages to feel fresh and unique through clever design, a folded-in story experience, and obviously a lot of thought put into the game's excellent design.
Freedom Planet tells the story of a group of previously rogue animals, Sash Lilac and Carol Tea, who find themselves involved as one of the few with the knowledge that their home planet being invaded by an alien overlord, Arktivus Brevon, and his army, who are after a stone of great power that rests on their planet, the Kingdom Stone. Getting involved with two other animals, Milla Basset and Torque, the four of them team-up to try and save the world.
The voice acting of the game takes a bit to get used to at first, but in the end the actors did good on delivering on their roles, and what I pretty much expected to be a pretty lackluster tale tacked onto the game actually provided characters I did end up caring about, developed through the course of the game, and even got pretty emotionally touching, dark, but with the right amount of humor thrown in to keep it entertaining. However, if you don't care at all about the story, when starting a game you can choose to play 'Classic Mode', which lets you play through all the stages with no story whatsoever.
Freedom Planet features three playable characters, Lilac, Carol, and Milla, all of who control and play completely differently. Lilac is the most straight-forward character, with a focus on speed and acrobatic ability. She can dash madly through stages and will be a favorite of those who have an inner speed demon. She does a variety of beat-em up style combos with slices and kicks for enemies, and uses a charge meter for a variety of her swirl and dash attacks. Carol is slower than Lilac by default, but when she collects gas from stages, she gets the ability to ride a motorbike, which she can use to do a number of spin attacks, wheelies, drive up walls, and a lot more. However, even when off her bike, she can be tactiful, with a dagger with longer reach and damage than Lilac's attacks, a jump dash, wall jump, and can use certain devices in stages Lilac can't. Milla is the slowest of the crew, and needs to be played the most tactfully. She can't attack enemies directly easily, but is very good on the defense. She can fly using her ears, summon a green cube at any time which she can throw, use to collect and pick-up nearby objects like bombs, or generate a barrier shield with she can use to defend from attacks. And when she breaks her shield, it forms a laser that delivers high damage to enemies.
All three characters go through mostly the same stages, but there are a few stages that are exclusive to each character and some stages that two characters may visit while the other will go to their own unique stage. It's very interesting to see how all three tackle the same stages very differently, however.
Most may expect the game on first glance to be a Sonic-clone, the game started development as a Sonic the Hedgehog fan game and has been in development for about three years. However, while playing what I was most reminded of was games by Treasure, such as Gunstar Heroes. The Sonic influence is definitely there, but this game forms itself as a beast all its own through its own unique level design, bigger focus on combat and stage gimmicks, and constantly escalating gameplay.
The level design is absolutely ace and really impressed me. The stages are unique, fun, and challenging, while both building up difficulty slowly but surely while also introducing a number of new situations and mechanics. Most stages feature completely different enemies and stage gimmicks, but manage to really use them in ways you get familiar with them quickly and then go all-out, which feels natural and progressive despite each stage having a high number of unique gimmicks. You'll do everything from climbing from spike traps, riding disco-ball Ferris Wheels, avoiding drills and kicking them into walls to bypass them, jumping between missiles to get from airship to airship, swimming alongside and avoiding missiles from a submerged submarine, and a lot, lot more. Stages are usually actually fairly meaty, being of pretty decent length and with many multiple paths to take through almost all of them.
Several times through most stages you'll fight a number of bosses, usually 2-5 before the stage is up. And they deserve particular mention, as the boss fights are challenging, fun, creative, and feature both strategic yet satisfying encounters that come in a large variety. In a single early stage, you'll fight a golem made of blocks you've been pushing around, a skeletal chicken, a vehicle with a devastating iron claw, and a giant pray mantis with a T-Rex roar, and that again is only in a single level.
And this all goes to an extremely awesome and rocking soundtrack that delivers something like a mixture of a Treasure and SEGA soundtrack from the 90s. Each stage has two different songs for the two different halves, and there are a number of boss and cinematic songs through the course of it as well.
Honestly speaking, this is a very solid platformer. It has a good amount of optional content, from a training dojo stage in time attack to collectible trading cards you can find in stages and a variety of challenging achievements, to replayability with the three very different characters with unique stages to each of them. It is a lot of fun to play from start to finish, and backs itself with some great style, design, and a pretty good story. The end of the game is actually pretty challenging, even on normal difficulty, and this game may feature in my opinion some of the best bosses to ever grace a platformer.
If you like platformers, and can get over the fact the game features anthropomorphic animals, this game is excellent in its own right. Its not merely a clone of anything, it's a solid indie release and maybe one of the best indie platformers to come out in some time. If you liked SEGA's and Treasures platforming games of the 90s, you need to try this game out.
Thanks so much for your full impression on this. Pretty much convinced me to get the game for sure after I pick up TiTS later on this week. Just the fact that I love Treausre games and enjoyed the older Sonic games so much I know i'm gonna get a great nostaglic experience out of this. Awesome of you to do the stream the other day also, gave me a nice look at the gameplay. It has to wait til after TiTS though since that takes priority after that surprise announcement this week. Is this game only on PC/Steam?

I think I'm 2/3 of the way through Strider and it still feels so...unexciting. Techncially the game is fine and I don't really see anything particularly wrong with the gameplay. It just doesn't feel all that interesting. The boss fights are the only real highlight and even they haven't been all that special.
