He did not hate games, he hated games with bad gameplay and bad design. He still does hate games hiding bad gameplay with great graphics. This sums it up.
Just head there.

Stop assembling the PC with your feet. It sucks less.
Anybody want Steam keys from the latest Humble Bundle for Hitman(s) 1 and 2? I ended up with extras:

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
Wait...what?!
I didn't know that either. I just kept switching tactics and used my mages almost exclusively for a whole lot of healing spells.

It's why I tell everyone to buy iMacs so when they ask me some tech questions I laugh and say "I don't know shit about Apple!". Then do a 360 and moonwalk away.
This is a rare case of someone actually needing a gaming PC. Steam Summer Sale claimed another victim.
Boo... I'll keep that in mind for next time. Thanks.

After making my post I was able to take one so out of my surprise that I beat on-site and off-site lurkers didn't get it before me.
I will be playing these since people seem to have so much love for the game...
I am even playing thief Gold right now.
Viscera Cleanup Detail Early Access
Just some early impressions, but this is a really fun game if you like to clean shit up.
Have you ever played a game where there are many objects you are able to pick up, yet they serve no purpose. Well this game actually gives those objects a purpose, and the goal is to clean that shit up. The entire point of the game is to clean up bloody messes using your trusty mop and hands. At first I figured this would be quite the easy task; however, it can take a lot of time to clean everything up based on how ocd you can be. There are no clear instructions on how to clean shit up, and you learn by simply playing for a while. There are huge incinerators placed around the map where you can throw the body parts into, and Splosh-O-matics which dispenses buckets of water.
Thankfully the devs didn't limit how much buckets of water you can get out of the Splosh machine because you are constantly going to need to refill up on them. Like real life you can't just keep using the same bucket of water to clean beacuse after a while the water is just to become filthy. I had about 20 buckets placed in a corner at one time in order to just clean one small area. If you don't remember to dip your mop in water it will only lead to more blood/goo being spread about the place. Another little neat thing in the game is that you also leave behind bloody footprints each time you step into a blood pile. The jump feature is actually useful for avoiding those blood stains, so you don't end up tracking those footprints about the place. It definitely is quite the task to clean everything up in a room, but it is a clean up simulator after all.
The biggest gripe I have about the game so far is that the ragdoll physcis could certainly be a lot better. Also being able to throw the body parts would help instead of having to get as close as possible to the incinerators just to dump a arm in them. There is certainly more to do within this game which I've still got to find out for myself. I certainly recommend this game to those who like to clean shit up.
+ you get to clean shit up
+ Takes a lot of time to clean (plus for me although may be a minus for others)
+ great atmosphere
- physics could be better
- no in-game music (what janitor doesn't listen to music!)

Thanks Rhaknar.
Also happy bday Shadownet.

Lego Marvel finished, that was a good game, but that shameless
advertising at the credits.... Disney...
Guardians of the Galaxy and Black Panther
That game kept on crashing for me, but it might have been a driver issue.

It might be shameless, but last time everyone checked Marvel constantly generates profitable IPs, more so that its competition.

Might as well get over that limit since im so close, while also clearing out some of my unused key backlog.
Dat giveaway though... Tomb Raider 2... oh man
NOTE: Bioshock #2 above there is a second copy of the first game, not the sequel. Modbot did that itself im guessing.

The game enjoys crashing for me on my PS3, I've only gotten through 1 mission without it doing this and making it unplayble..
Yeah, if there is more than one copy of a particular game in a giveaway, the second copy and onwards will be numbered.

I must of enjoyed Lego Marvel, I got the Platinum trophy on the PS4 version.
Can't remember much of it though.

Saw Greg Coomer tweeting about this. Liked it. Maybe a sign?
Yeah, I doubt it's apropos of anything, but I still think we'll see another desktop client overhaul circa the stable release of SteamOS/the first Steam Machines.
Aren't there a stupid amount of collectibles?

It honestly looks like a console UI. Maybe Steam Big Picture?
