Damn X-Files.

Yesterday I watched some bits of the very first episode and goddamn, Mulder looks like a toddler, like 10 years younger than me, even though he was 2 years older (than me today).
I mean, he looks even younger than Denise in Twin Peaks a couple of years before.

How he got from there to Hank Moody is the most unsolvable mystery of the entire FBI basement's history

Can't wait! Netflix just added the remastered Wide screen HD/ 5.1 versions of season 4-6 today, gotta finish rewatching the whole series now.

I thought lashman was recommending and highlighting worthwhile new releases for a while, I didn't know he was like a spambot posting these automatically or something.

No. Noooo! Don't start this again. I swear, I will spam my favourite anime gifs if you start that again.

Well, maybe if he published the code of his bot on Github or something, Steam Gaf could expand it a bit, like adding generic descriptions based of the most recommended Steam Reviews.
Like so: "I really like this game, because of feature X and played it for Y hours. Good game!"

it's the one that probably borrows from Suikoden somewhat, at least that's how it looks to me, that's why I'm so excited about it, hopefully it will be good (not as good as Suikoden, I'm not that delusional).

Shyamalan plot twist:

Is that really Sakura Spirit in a nutshell, because I may need to gift copies. >>

that's no twist at all, she is!

As far as I can see it is, I really hope you refrain from making steam even bigger mistake than it is now, Sakura sold ten times more than it should already.

Sakura Spirit is more than shiny boobs. This magnificient game builds a narrative of escapism that it ultimately subverts in the end when the protagonist decides to go back to his real life instead of staying at the world with the humanoid fantasy creatures that wants to mate him. Similiar to Bioshock it gives you choices that aren't real choices because they lead to the same end. The twist is of course that this choice influences the fantasy world and don't matter because the fantasy world doesn't matter. The protsgonist has a love interest in real life and the fanatsy girls are only aspects of her personality the protahonist perceives in certain ways. In the end the player decides what aspects of the girl he values the most. The short run time keep the story short and snappy and allows for fast paced action scenes and an ideal balance of the players time.

Gonna have to edit the properties of the exe.

Check the following:

- disable display scaling on high DPI settings

Should be fine then.

Suikoden is much more than just a game, it's series very loosely based on Shui Hu Zhuan (classical Chinese novel). These are games dealing with politics, intrigue, revolutions, rebellions, outlaws and fate, even more these are known for every game having 108 stars or destiny (protagonists) and teaching that in grand scheme of things nobody is really expendable.

If you wanna try those and have PS3 (or Vita) you are lucky, after years of begging Konami finally put both first games on PSN and we are getting third in the future, or so it would seem.
Keep in mind these are rather old games, tho.

Has anyone ever ordered anything from Nuuvem and not had the games show up on their account, even after getting the confirmation emails from both Nuuvem and PayPal? Bought a couple of things last night, and got an email from Nuuvem saying "order complete! Go get your games!" but when I check my account, they're not there.

I've purchased in the past, and things appeared instantly on my account, just not this time.

Well, something similar. One key for a game I ordered never showed up. Store page said they'll restock soon but never did. I got a refund but apparently their customer support is dead right now or something since they haven't replied to another issue within the last three weeks despite promising they would get back to me on twitter lol

Ghosted Knife of Dunwall in Dishonored. This route was way harder than the main game, they really created more challenging scenarios in this episode. The final mission was brutal. I kept thinking that maybe saving the assassins wasn't required to complete the mission? If so, then I lost a lot of time lol

Almost forgot most important thing, that very first Suikoden is my Gom Jabbar test, if people don't like it and don't do certain things (spoiler, not gonna post what), they aren't humans.
I'm not serious. Or am I?

You know it's not really a bot, right? That's just a joke.
