Maybe they win these games. I mean in the end it is just more like a random raffle, 20.000 keys with maybe 10 high profile games.

Yeah, maybe, but see so many posts one after each other, in the same thread, about winning me made me suspicious. Lol, check the comments 2 out of 3 people won Mirror's Edge Catalyst.

I bought it three times. I got Zack Zero, Gun Monkeys and Dark Souls 3.

Eh, but if you post you won DS3, you ruin my conspiracy theory, go away :p

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.

Guys quick question !
I'm in Korea right now and I want to buy God Eater 2 with the Korean price. I go back to France in 10 days and it seems God Eater 2 has its own package in Korea with other Asian countries. Does it mean I wont be able to play it in France ?

On Steam Store it's same package everywhere, it's safe. (The one you linked is for CD Keys only)

Started I am Setsuna and can't start a new game with my Xbone Pad on Win10. I can only switch between new game and load game with the left and right dpad moves, all other buttons don't do anything.

Not an amazing first impression.

I already have several copies of Gun Monkeys I can't get rid of. They should bundle stuff from my wishlist. :D

Make a mystery giveaway right after I am Setsuna one will end, people desperate for losing it will enter for sure.

Is this a Unity game? If so try to plug the controller when you are in-game, if it's like FFIX, it should work.

I saved so much money by not buying or preordering dreadful bundles that I think I can spare 2,99 for the 10pack. See you on the other side.

Guys, don't enter anymore, if DerExpert buy that bundle he will find 10 triple A games including Dark Souls 3, Mirror's Edge, Fallout 4 and Resident Evil 7, with GMG closing out the shop.

Yes it is and your tip worked, thanks. So i suppose that is a widespread issue with unity games? Will try to keep it in mind next time i'll run into that.
 
This is bullshit. They should get crap for advertising it like that. People have bought those bundles a lot and not once have I heard somebody actually got Fallout 4, Witcher 3 or Dark Souls 3.

They give absolutely no indication of what could be in the bundle. The only 'hints' are the games in the background and those are things you definitely aren't going to get. That seems pretty misleading. I've not seen anyone say anything about the "Origin, GOG or Uplay" keys that it claims it could contain, either.

Alright, got BETRAYER, RUSH BROS, POSTAL 2 COMPLETE, COSMIC ROCKET DEFENDER, RING RUNNER, SHIPLORD, NANINIGHTS, ONIKIRA DEMONKILLER, SOLAR SHIFTER EX, PROTO RAIDER.

Will keep Proto Raider and maybe Solar Shifter. Would Postal 2 Complete give me the Paradise Lost DLC? Eh, could've been worse.
 
I'm going to try posting a negative review and see if it lets me. Their reviews are moderated and the only ones on the page are positive, so i expect they won't let it.

Now im having a different issue where the game acts like im holding the left dpad side pressed the entire time, which im pretty sure i dont. Ugh.


The keyboard controls are also weird, how do i leave the ingame menu? Exit exits the entire game.

€: It's 'K'. You press 'J' to open the menu and you press 'K' to close it.

Maybe i should play EDF first.

I loved Pac Man CE DX. This looks like it is continuing in that spirit which is great.

Definintely in on this.

Pac Man is getting a lot of love recently.

I still need to pick up the old arcade game one.

I wish Bamco would show love to more Namco's older titles :/
Anyone remember this?

Seriously a Klonoa 1 HD re-release would sell really well with a good port and a $20 price point. The Wii ver. runs really well on Dolphin for one thing.

The Steam fps counter while playing Setsuna ranges from 42 to 60 fps. Also, beware of the ESC key.

Now im having a different issue where the game acts like im holding the left dpad side pressed the entire time, which im pretty sure i dont. Ugh.

You can configure the buttons from the starting menu. The default layout is beyond weird, 1 to pause, space to confirm, I and O to switch pages or turn models around. They got the wasd right though.

Someone should try this. I mean, there are Spider-man, Transformers, Fallout etc in the background, you will probably get Battlepath but you should try it anyway.

I knew I'd get trash and GMG didn't disappoint.

I'd recommend just using a different controller if that's an option.
Or wait 2 weeks and hope that Win10 Anniversary update fixes the shit xbone drivers once and for all.
 
Does anyone know if i need to know the previous product key if i want to create a W10 ISO from the installer on Microsoft's site and install that on a new SSD?

I realized i can't use my W7 key to install W7 and then upgrade that to W10, but my brother has upgraded to 10 on his system, but he doesn't have know his W8 product key either.

You should be ok, since the key should be stored into UEFI, so if you don't change MB, it's ok.

As far as I know:

If you want to avoid the upgrade step entirely, it's possible to use Win7 key with the Win10 install media. It will be converted into a digital license that's tied to your motherboard.
If you don't know your key (it's easy to find out with some third party tools), you can do an upgrade install which should grant the digital license to your motherboard, and you can then do a clean install after that if you wish.
