Agreed. This is why despite the slowdown present - the Vita has been my go-to for Telltale's stuff. The mix of touch controls + regular controls is absolutely perfect for the games.

That giveaway above looks... tainted?
There are, but they're easier to perform on the mobile device than they are with a controller or mouse. The mashing ones are a matter of tapping the screen rapidly, then swiping in a particular direction; and the ones where you need to target a particular point on the screen are much easier for obvious reasons, especially when compared with using an analogue stick.

I'd argue that tapping the screen is no less than and ergonomically probably less efficient than tapping a button, that pushing a stick left is as efficient as swiping left, and that in a game without any twitch gameplay and all the time in the world, pointing at a spot really doesn't matter.
I've played through 3 seasons of Telltale's current game design on PC and have had zero problems with it. I can see why someone would prefer using a touchscreen, but ultimately it really doesn't matter, imo. It's really just preference.

Bioshock. Maybe something set before the events of Bioshock 1, where things were just starting to go to shit.
Something like this would look utterly badass, I think.
... which they are ... dude, chickens are damn scary!!!O_O(and tasty too)
I know I've said this before, but there's a reason for that. (The scary part, at least.)
Played A Story About My Uncle for a few hours and I really like it. I figure there are people itching for first person platforming like Mirror's Edge? Well this is the game for you. I was also surprised at how challenging it got. I'm in the ice cavern now and there have been segments I had to retry several times.
Voice acting and character design is abysmal though, but luckily it's all about the action here.
Thinking about maybe making a thread for this game, with some gifs to show the gameplay. I feel like this got largely ignored.

A QuakeCon sale with a decent discount on Quake games. I'm fairly certain this is one of the signs of the apocalypse.

listen to the mad man
ModBot is smart enough to separate keys and game names.
So
Deus Ex: The Fall - Extreme Reload Nausea Simulator 2015: Deluxe Edition # This game sux lol - KEY1-GOES-HERE
will work exactly as intended.

I like Deus Ex: The Fall
50% off for a series that had last game released in 2005 is decent?
Well, they won't get many impulse buys at that discount, but if you have been waiting for Quake, it might not get much better any time soon.

Now that would be the greatest giveaway of all time.
You play and/or unlock achievements for games they list as having rewards. Do any of the things they ask you to do on this list for the current rewards.
Play a game for the first time = money
Unlock achievements for some games = more money
I like Deus Ex: The Fall
You're a bad person.

Yeah, they are slower. The latest chapter hasn't made it to Android yet, and that was after a massive delay with even releasing the games there. It doesn't bother me, but I don't find it hard to avoid spoilers so ymmv.
wheeeee

It's better than the laughable 25% Quake had during the big Quakecon weekend, tho
There are people who do give away games out of being kind and because they have extras that they want to giveaway from a bundle, and then you have this shit that just got posted on this page anonymously. I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm saying it's funny.
Yes, you can nuke keys.

Spent several hours playing Guacamelee with the wife yesterday. Which is a rare occurrence for us. There just aren't that many games out there that really grab her attention. Don't Starve is one of them that has managed to completely enthrall her. If you look at my profile you'll notice that that game has 179 hours played and she's been responsible for most of that. Back to Guacamelee impressions: She and I both love the design and aesthetic of the game. The fighting in it is great fun as well. The only part we're not too fond of is the jumping bits. We are both terrible at those parts of the game so it can be a bit frustrating getting to the bits we like. But it's great fun in co-op!

Thanks. I looked through the guide but couldn't find it. I searched for remove / delete, but not nuke.

Yes. It's not ideal, though, especially given their age.

Thanks Anonymous Benefactor!
There is a co-op patch coming to Don't Starve.
There's a lot of nice stuff in that "shit."
In an environment where every giveaway faces suspicion, exposure, and assumption of ulterior motives, like so:
... then a lot of people who don't want to deal with this bullshit are either going to give stuff away anonymously or not at all.
Thanks for posting this. Had no idea Guacamelee had coop lol. Have to try it out as I'm always on the hunt for more coop.

Thanks. Do I have to play the games or is it enough to idle for them in SAM? Not the achievements of course, only play for the first time unlocks.

This is definitely happening already.
You can idle away! It's all I do for the reward.
Idling is fine. Just be sure to do it for at least six minutes so your Community profile reports 0.1 hours played.

Shhh! Don't let the demons find out, or they'll harass you to no end.
I used it myself and got banned from GMG, LOL

Banned for unlocking achievements, to be precise.

That's sad. I have personally grabbed a few really good cheap bundle games from modbot giveaways. They would probably oftentimes go unused by the owner if not given away (as they are often spares). Kind of the main point of modbot, right?

I love all these game nights that's been popping up lately! Unfortunately I've been away or the game session has been in the middle of the night or something, but I'm definitely going to join in on the first occasion!
It's about time we started playing some games around here

So a spike in giveaways right after shadownets PiF and Megagiver's giveaway is just a coincidence?
When we are playing: Estimate Time
ok, i'll dive.
Forces you to learn the parry system. Very simple once you learn that.
Unless you are referring to the fight in the jetstream Sam dlc. That encounter is hard.
YianGaruga
Banned
Of course not. But is it a bad thing and worth critizising?
The game just tells you to learn its systems or GTFO at that point. It plays a bit differently from other games, but once you understand the parry system it becomes glorious. It took me a few tries with long pauses in between attempts before the game clicked with me. Someone posted a great tutorial video here a while back whcih helped me a lot, but I don't have it anymore. Does anybody know which one I'm talkin about?
EDIT: This is it

Agreed. Personally, I feel like that's one of the easiest bosses in the game.
So giving away anything is just scumming for PIF or MG?
