Nice, I remember reading positive opinions about the Vita version.
Do you have a group of friend that are already playing or want to learn Dota 2? It's more enjoyable playing with people you already know tgan playing with random internet strangers.
Against.
Tried it once, didn't understand anything. Watched what the game did to a friend of mine and decided not to let the same happen to me.

Right now it's ending with ihavenoideawhatimdoingdog.jpg
Just taking it for a spin. I fired it up a LONG time ago, but seems like things have reallly changed. Going through the tutorial stuff now and we'll see where I end up.

Oh mang!
Hotdamn, The Crew is so ugly outside of cutscenes, runs like (Watch_)dogshit and is locked to 30fps if you don't modify the config xml file (probably since the cutscene car animations seem to stutter if you cap it to 60 instead of 30). Can't seem to get in-game anymore as well after the game crashed before, all I get is a blackscreen with the beta notice. Way to go Ubi, having a great time so far.
Ultra, 4xMSAA, HDAO.
Just as a reminder, the new episode of the Walking dead is actually later today on Steam at least

I'm jealous, can't wait to play it haha
I recommend spending some hours in a bot game with a particular hero learning the flow and mechanics.
I first started with Lich, which is one if the best supports in the game. Shadow Shaman and Dazzle are very powerful as well.
So would you recommend Farm Simulator instead, for someone looking to try a game of this genre?
The "sim-shovelware" thing is a definite issue -- it's really hard for the uninitiated to know what games in the genre are legit and worth giving a try, and which are garbage that are barely worth the +1 to your Steam library count. Game like FSX, X-Plane, ETS, Train Simulator, etc are legit, but there are a lot of similar-looking stuff that fall into the shovelware category. Hard to know the wheat from the chaff.

It's pretty rough and I don't like the driving physics but still think there's a great game in there somewhere.
Freedom = $1.05

guys, question about TWAU. Just finished the first episode.
Also, im assuming that the console versions of TWAU isn't as sharp with the textures because this is one clean looking game on PC. really like the art style, even if the facial animations still look a bit jank at times.
so, if going by what Telltale did with TWD season 1, im assuming that Prince Lawrence ends up dead regardless of whether you saved him during episode 1 or not? Because fuck it, my boy Toad needed me and i had to bail him out.

"Fading Lights" is such a beautiful swansong for Phil's era with the band despite the fact that the lyrics were written by Tony, hah. I prefer to speculate that they somehow knew Phil wouldn't be back for another album.
It's a shame that militant prog-heads look down upon latter-era Genesis, though I concede the band is almost completely different (in a musical sense) from their 70's incarnation. And while they do have some lesser "pure pop" songs... well, at least they still have some very nice epics to compensate for that!
No actually
if you save Prince Lawrence then he stays alive. Although he is quite irrevelant to the story with just having a couple of lines of dialogue after that.

Morning guys. Woke up after 3pm, my sleep rhythm is messed up heavily these days.
Aw yiss. My number 4 on my wishlist! me0wish you are an awesome juni...
this is BULLSHIT.gif
The second time already happening this. First with Capsized and now Cortex Command.
There should be a way to check keys if they haven been used already.
Damn this stings. CC was so high up my list.
Nothing you could have known me0wish and you warned before, too. Just sucks.

It's over. After almost five hours it's finally over.
No money to buy DS2 Season Pass
I'm torn on the DS2 Season Pass. I only own the game on PS3, so do I buy the DLC there, or wait for a Steam Sale and buy DS2 and the season pass on PC?

I can't speak to the PS3 quality, but the PC port of DS2 is reallllly flipping good.

If you only own Dark Souls 2 on PS3, you don't own Dark Souls 2 at all..
PC is your answer.
Yeah, I know. But it would be $75 to buy the game and the season pass on PC right now, and I would lose all of my saves.
I guess I'll wait for impressions on the DLC first.
I'm with you.
The ratio of shovelware to quality product in the sim market can seem pretty unbalanced when looking from the outside. However there is indeed quality offerings out there if you dig around.
Farming Simulator is the premiere product in the sub-genre and is further bolstered by one of the most active mod communities I've ever seen. For example, the game ships with two large maps, but thanks to modders you can easily download and run dozens up on dozens. Also, Giants Software nabbed a ton of licences for the machinery and equipment, but they couldn't get all like the coveted John Deere. No problem, the mod community has created virtually every piece John Deere farming equipment ever produced. All for free.
Anyway, Farming Simulator isn't for everyone, but it's a real gem for those interested in the genre. It's relaxing & Zen. A pleasant change of pace from the usual urgency and bombast that dominates the industry.
Here's a link to the demo from the official site. Nuuvem is selling the game for $12 for the next few days.
Cheers.

Props for the Genesis love.
They were one of the first bands I really got into growing up, and yeah, its criminal how much hate late-era Genesis gets.

Does that include the new Super Hyper Turbo Xtreme Finger Lickin' Doki Doki Ultra DLC pack too?
No. That'll presumably come later.

Prince Lawrence actually can live or die and stay alive/dead the rest of the game, depending on where you go first
Why did you pass out? That doesn't sound very healthy.

Typical Capcpom, but seeing as I got the game for $20ish, I can balance it out if that DLC is sold for $10.
Don't leave SteamGAF. I know people got a bit grumpy, and maybe tone down some of the tangents a bit to avoid pissing people off. But I at least would be sad if you left.
For those interested in OlliOlli, here are a few reviews of the Vita version: Demonoid (9.5/10), Eurogamer (9/10), Edge (8/10), and Joystiq (4/5). Barring something horrible I imagine this will translate just fine to Steam. As someone who played every Tony Hawk game until Project 8, I'm pretty excited about this.

Have they released the hardware specifications ?

C'mon son.
Nice of them to just make regular DR3 the apocalypse edition from the get-go, come sale time it'll make the decision easier than just seeing a bunch of DLC and wondering if I should buy them.
Nothing of the sort is required.
Let's just keep Anime to Anime OT (Waifu game discussion should be okay).
Oh cute, are you PandaPedinte to my JaseC?

so is freedom planet a good game?? i want to read some opinions of people who have already played it
Cool, thanks for the thoughts! I'll give it a go.

oh indeed. There are a couple of Phil solo albums that I associate strongly with my childhood (especially "...But Seriously"), they mean a lot to me. I'm a bit of a fanboy, so while I understand that some people absolutely despise them, I can't and won't find any fault with them. They speak to my inner child, they represent those "good old days". So yeah.
On topic: YEEEEEESSSSSSSS I FINALLY GOT THE MONEY I WAS WAITING FOR... so the DS2 Season Pass and Divinity Original Sin will be MINE. FINALLY.
was the release date there before today?
Yes, it has been announced a few weeks back.
Rogues are indeed useless before they get a ranged weapon, but once they do they become the best.
Secret buttons all look the same depending on what floor you're on; the wall textures change every 3rd floor and the further you go, the more different types of buttons they add. Not all secrets are as easy as pressing a button though...
I want to like it but it also looks like a Sanic game... This is unacceptable.
