Can get Claire for $7.99 off GMG right now.

That caught my eye earlier. I'm tempted but I think I will wait. Looks like a good game though.

Yeah, but I wouldn't say I'm intimately familiar with its features. I know how to make avatars and gifs, but that's about it, haha. Don't really need it for anything else. ;)

Well the intent was to knock you up a template so all you had to do was alter said text and you'd get something like...

but I haven't used Fireworks in about 6 years so fuck that noise hahaha.

So, basically, nothing unless you win a ton of games.

Basically. It's purpose is twofold:

1. Stop an individual from winning a disproportionate number of games over a short period of time.
2. In cases where a giveaway allows you to enter for multiple games, you can only ever win one game from the same raffle (unless a game is completely unclaimed).
 
Please take these keys:

As long as this is used in moderate amounts and doesn't get memetically run into the ground, it'll be hilarious.
 
I'll probably have to miss that first game of Dota 2 tonight given the time change. I'll be on around 7 EST so I'll join the 2nd game.

I'm not home until around 6:30. The original time is better. Sorry for not clarifying

Changing it back to 7:30, so see you in-game :)

I've entered at least 20 giveaways for Divinity. If I don't win it today I'll probably just buy it.

Haha same here, been close to buying it a couple of times, but dunno, I stopped playing Diablo 3 too soon after I bought it and I don't really have anyone to play it with.

Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures is pretty good, difficult but fair... Except for that damn last boss! Those patterns were difficult to overcome and I only did it by the skin of my teeth! On Normal! Only took about 3-4 hours but a very solid homage to good games from the NES-era brutality we've all come to call classic. I firmly of the belief this game was made to make everyone feel rage and start threatening the Nerd's life in RL. Every level has plenty of 80s platformer quirks that will set in motion a wave of rage nostalgia.
The health pickups in a few places are in an impossible to come back alive from placement, like in a set of closing in walls that you barely have time to escape normally.

$15 might be too much but the $6ish dollars I paid for it on sale at some point seems worth it. Worth the rage.

You need to get on that Prince of Persia wagon. The Sands of Time and The Forgotten Sands are both fantastic.

I have Forgotten Sands but wasn't really feeling it, it's not bad though, but I kind of want to start with Sands of time.

I'm actually really interested in Legacy of kain: Soul Reaver.

2008 was really good too.

out of the original trilogy - Warrior Within is the one I liked the most ;) I know it's not a popular opinion (to put it lightly :p) ... but - there you go :p it might've been the music ;)

This. The 2008 Prince of Persia is one of my all time favourite games, it's so damn pretty. The combat and the platforming is a bit lacking in difficulty/variation though.

... and that main theme :3 I could listen to it for hours ... such beautiful music ... Inon Zur is DA MAN!! :)

The problem with platforming in that game is that it's mostly 1 direction and most of the time you're holding one button/direction, what you mostly do in the game is to "renew" the action to keep the character doing platforming automatically. The combat is basically figuring out which 1 or 2 actions to do.

It's kind of like ass creed but they don't give you any room to improvise but the game is very pretty.

Rookiejet, added you for the AE tournament thing.

Dunder, I might have to pull out from the Dota game night if we start too late lol, I kind of want to play Street Fighter. So, feel free to replace me if someone else comes along!

2008 was really good too.

+1. Although the combat was lacking, I was fine with that, since I loved the platforming. Maybe it was a bit easy, but I really like how fluid it was, and of course, the visuals were beautiful. I wish they'd make a sequel already.

Speedrunners deal (2€, 2.5$) @ bundle stars is back online

Tempting. It's not my kind of game, but I kinda want to get it just so I can play with SteamGaf.

Edit: Wow, talk about perfect timing! Thanks StAiden!

Yeah, I agree with all of that. I totally understand if people want more to the platforming and combat in their games. Heck, I do too!

But in 2008 POP's case, I overlook that due to the amazing visuals and great soundtrack. It's a triumph of style over substance really.

... and that main theme :3 I could listen to it for hours ... such beautiful music ... Inon Zur is DA MAN!! :)

Totally. Really great soundtrack, with loads of stand out pieces. Ubisoft knew what they were doing with soundtracks around then.
