Didn't want to wait for Happy Hour to save, what, a dollar? Here, have my duplicates. Two of them are good! One is...um...not that good. If you look back through my old posts for impressions, you'll know which!

Let me guess, Time Mysteries? I just played through that one yesterday and it's definitely not as good as their newer games. A lot of times I had difficulty finding objects, and not because they are well hidden, but because they didn't look anything like what the word says.

Rocket League does DLC right

Some free, some paid

Has Rocket League infiltrated your dreams yet? Give it time. It'll happen.

Patrick showed us the upcoming Utopia Coliseum, but developer Psyonix has more in store for early August. A free update will add that arena plus Spectator Mode, updated Goal explosions and Demolitions, 70+ country flags, and the song "Firework" by Hollywood Principle. Free is good.

There's also paid content coming up. The Supersonic Fury DLC ($3.99) unleashes the American muscle car Dominus and the slick Japanese street racer Takumi, six decals for each, and new customization options (rocket boosts, wheels, paint types) for the full vehicle lineup.

I bet some folks will pay for this just to reward Psyonix for making such a compelling game.

Not gonna answer that because I actually want these games to get claimed.

It's totally Time Mysteries...but if you're reading this and don't have it yet, just enter for it!

Tier 1's not great for me (already have two of the games, but not their DLC), and I have Gurumin from Tier 2. If anyone has duplicates, I have a copy of Screencheat I would trade for one of the other Tier 2 games (either one is fine).

I know port-begging is frowned upon but what can I say? I want yet unavailable games to be ported to PC. So what, so what I say?!

It's not port begging when the company is literally telling you they're going to port something.

It's just port asking and requesting now, freshv, child, hush and be calm. things are looking up

Oof, the gurumin raffle isn't a free for all...do I dare enter for that one like everyone else? Or do I attempt the consolation Sacred Tears == TRUE; for a low-risk alternative? Friggin' game theory.

I'd say more have Gurumin (due to vote thingy) than Sacred Tears. So it would be higher risk alternative.

Really? I thought just basically saying nothing besides "I want xy game on my platform of choice!" (which I do hah) is the best/worst kind of port begging?!
Click to expand...

Port begging is defined as going into an existing thread and disrupting the discussion to get the game on your platform of choice.

For example, going into the DQXI thread and asking for a PC port would be port begging.

Discussing potential PC ports in Steam thread or threads dedicated to the topic is not port begging.

The context is important, though. Especially in this case, where the discussion itself is about ports, it can't be port begging.

But more broadly, it's only port begging if it effectively messes up a thread or is otherwise unreasonable. A game funded or otherwise owned by Sony, Nintendo, or Microsoft, for example.

Asking for the Nintendo game on your system of choice is unreasonable. Or, in the case of Microsoft, who do often release their games additionally on PC, if it is inhibiting discussion of the main topic.

Beyond that, I'd even go so far as to say that beyond the unreasonable begging, PC port begging doesn't exist or, at the very least, comes from a different place than console port begging. Console port begging is literally complaining that something isn't being released on your branded box of choice. The consoles are at this point nearly indistinguishable and offer basically the same features.

With PC port begging, there are plenty of reason beyond simply wanting something on your platform of choice. The forwards compatibility, better image quality, mods, etc et al.

But that last part is just my opinion on the matter.

Sweet, learn something new everyday. I was really hesitant when I posted here that I want Yakuza games and Dragon's Dogma. But since it is the Steam thread I can dwell on dreams of getting PC ports more easily now. Yeah, in doses of course, not every post asking for a game to come.
