The Fall's recoil effect.

I think that the gifs speak for themselves.

This is so stupid. People really are judging the entire game by a looping gif that enhances the effect?

I played the game. It's not great and doesn't live up to DX HR, but summing it up with a gif of the shooting, which doesn't give you that seizure effect when you're playing, is moronic at best. You can even get rid of the recoil. People need to grow up and stop gleefully finding stuff to hate all the time.

Is Invisible War bad? It's the only game in the series that I've never played. It has an 80 meta critic score so it's weird to see everyone bad mouthing it

It's pretty horrendous. So much so, that as massive fan of the original and most recent games, I have attempted to play the game well into double digits since it's release waaaaay back when, and I still haven't managed to get more than half way through the thing. The story for all I know may well be ok, but the engine is abysmal. I believe it is the same as Thief Deadly Shadows (the third one). Unfortunately DX2 was made with the original xbox in mind, and cuts every single corner imaginable
 
the only game in that bundle that interests me is Absolution, and I already have that on PS+. I would just want it because those screenshots from the pc version when it came out were ridiculous.

Didn't really want the first game, so here you go if anyone else does.

Please people, I beg of you. Stop posting and quoting that Deus Ex The Fall "long neck recoil" gif. It's quite nauseating.

Also buy Anachronox off that Humble Bundle if you like sci-fi, funny writing, or Adventure games, it deserves love.

Daikatana? Is that the awful john Romero game?

Aye. One which is to only ever be played to discover if it is indeed that terrible, if you enjoy such things.

Shame we can't get Daikatana for GBA on Steam, now that was a good game that happily sits next to my Legend of Zelda games with respect.
 
The Dark Souls 2 DLC is great so far.
Doing new souls content for the first time is just the best thing ever.

I should have gotten Dark Souls 2 during the summer sale when it was 33% off..

I loved the first one.. Maybe DS2 will go on sale with the DLC this winter..

Sorry for being a moron.

And thank you for being so condescending when you could have just said I was wrong, really appreciate it.

Thanks for ignoring this post too.

Seriously, thanks a lot for making me feel like shit, pal.

Every time Sniper Elite V2 is brought up in the thread, someone invariably posts the gif exclusively showing the testicle shot instead of one that shows the range of modeling the game actually incorporates for body damage.
 
some more games i dont need :)

Well-deserved punishment for not doing a Ghost/Pacifist run.

I haven't played it, so I have no idea if the game can be completed in a stealth + takedown fashion.
I never fired a gun in the iPad version of the game but using guns in deus ex games feels wrong.
 
The Fall's recoil gifs come from Totalbiscuit's impressions video of it. No idea if it's actually like that. Apparently it was a glitch/bug.

The Dark Souls 2 DLC is great so far.
Doing new souls content for the first time is just the best thing ever.

Damn right. Nothing else has that sense of exploration, with actual dangers behind every turn. Loving the area it's in too.

if it's that glitchy from day 1 it's pretty damn bad to release your game in that state.
Recoil aside, it still looks like a subpar game and port.

Humble Bundle is really pissing me off with all these verify-your-account antics. It's like I'm a second class citizen for having more than one browser on my system.

Is K&L2 any good?

Amazing aesthetic and presentation, but the mechanics are worse than the first game and the single player it is quite short. The multiplayer is actually a unique experience that is let down by the fact that the enemy AI spawn positions are static.
