Oh I think I have this on Desura.

You must hate a whole lot of games.
Many have fallen by this standard, yes, but if it's just like a section of the game it can be tolerable, but not if it's real bad like say... the dark maze of rooms in Vagrant Story.

I just hope not Zelda - Majora's Mask... :/
Never played it, but it's my understanding that there is no real pressure, you just rewind back and then do more progress based on what was established in the last go? Like a way, way, way less obnoxious Breath of Fire 5, or perhaps like the movie Groundhog Day in a sense. I'll probably check it out when it's ported to 3DS.

Bed time.

Good for you. Some people are even annoyed by that. :D Yeah if you think you may run out of time in a temple, just rewind back and do it then. You have to know the daily routines of everyone for some sidequests though, if you mess up somewhere you have to repeat it all. It's a wonderful game. Would rank it veeeery high in my favorite Zelda games list.

Rendering my about 14 min video of Rise of Nations EX in Sony Vegas. Im going through lots of stuff and modes. Stay tuned!

My friends have seen it and says my voice is great. Still, I think my voice is horrible. :p

Sequence by Gaffer Feep.

Ah yeah I have this, free GAF game :D

Sequence as mentioned
Frederic: Resurrection of Music. A resurrected Frederic Chopin comes to beat all.
BeatBlasters III
KickBeat, a kung fu action game to the music.
Retro/Grade , a shoot-em-up based off rhythm.
Space Channel 5 Part 2 , SEGA classic give or take the Michael Jackson influence.

The Cave while holding promise, never really lives up to how good it could have been. Go with Castle of Illusion if you want a fun platformer and if you have memories of the original.
Might want to upvote these two on Greenlight. Also, Rhythm Destruction finally got greenlit in one of the latest batches.

Sequence was surprisingly great.

I'll check those out.


They exist, but I've never really played any of them, so I can't recommend any. I have heard good things about the Bit.Trip games and Sequence, though.

The rhythm tag should help you.

Hmm some feel "non-traditional" in a sense. I want something like DDR or Pop'n Music

...

I want Pop'n Music in Steam, Konami :(

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
It seems coupons earned from crafting now only last a week, down from two. Here's one I earned this past Monday (June 2nd):

And here's one I earned just several minutes ago (June 7th):

Of course the obvious speculation is that the Summer sale is starting sometime in the next two weeks ie the 19th.

So, I just noticed this last night, but all of my installed Tools are for whatever reason showing up in my Installed Games' list. Anyone know why this is happening?
 
Mortal Kombat Komplete Kollection impressions:

This game is great...and I am horrible. I've really been enjoying the story mode thus far - I like how it explains some of the differences in character designs from one game to the next. I do wish the game had pausable cutscenes though. I had to go at the end of chapter 11, tried to pause the cutscene and come back to it later, but it skipped it and all of a sudden there's Stryker, who hadn't been in the story at all up to that point. I went to youtube later to see what I'd missed. If games are so adamant about being cinematic, why can't we pause/rewind/fast forward cutscenes like we can movies? But that's an argument for another day.

I'm playing on a keyboard (arrow keys and keypad, with only a couple of keys outside them, so that's not too bad) and my fingers are kinda sore. I'm tempted to plug in my DS3 but I'm concerned that I'd have to re-learn controls I'm just now starting to get the hang of. But gameplay is smooth and the controls are tight (maybe even TOO tight. Doing a combo in the tutorial required me to input controls faster than the character was performing them. Maybe that's why I do so badly at fighting games...) Speaking of which, I lose quite a lot in story mode. It seems some of the first matches against a new opponent I just sit there and get pummeled. But I eventually get the hang of it...through dumb luck.

One glitch I encountered: for some reason my character was unable to move except for crouching. This lasted a long time and only ended when he was hit. I was in the tutorial at the time and the opponent wasn't hitting me in that phase so I actually had to go to story mode to get it back to normal.

Graphics are great, sound and music are great, Liu Kang still sounds like a chicken, all is right with the world. Well worth my fiver even if I don't go online with it.

Anyone playing Magic this weekend? I played the 2011 version on my PS3 to death when I got it with PS+. I'm going to try out the 2014 version tonight. I just don't know if I'll pick it up now that Hearthstone is out.

As far as I can recall, previous sales had no impact on coupon expiration times. They've always lasted for two weeks up until now.

I was kind of let down by the DS4 controller. I was excited to have a better d-pad but I still found it a little uncomfortable for extended use. I was using a driver that allowed the touch-pad to act as a mouse and that was pretty amazing for a couple games where gamepad support for menu navigation was shitty or non-existent (Risk of Rain, Race the Sun, I'm looking at you here). Everything else felt like a lateral upgrade from the old trusty 360 controller. And I disliked having to deal with the quirky 3rd party drivers and the wrapper application. So I ended up going back to the 360 controller as my main for now.

I have a Wii U Pro controller that I haven't tried connecting to my PC yet that would probably be nice for the next 2D platformer type game I play. Maybe Shovel Knight. I'm waffling on ordering an XOne controller now that there's support for it. Wired only is a real bummer though...

I'm loving the fear that the next Bethesda game will be exclusive to one platform. Skyrim sold 20 million copies right? That's like assuming the next Call of Duty will be exclusive to a single platform.

Nice giveaway Sub Zero.

How do you check how many games you have given away? Mine is under 25 I'm sure but would be nice to know.

edit: you pm modbot my loot in the subject line. I've given away under 10 games.. Need to step it up

Who is fearing that? That's asinine. Same goes for people thinking the next ME will be Xbox exclusive.

Reposting again in case someone wants to try out KH through emulator.

For anyone unfamiliar with the chronological order of Kingdom Hearts franchise here how it goes,

timeline.png


And for anyone still in doubt of liking the franchise don't be. The first time I looked at Kingdom Hearts I was like "What the fuck is this childish game?" and then I played it and it won me over. The charm in this IP is something else. One of the best feel-good games out there and that is coming from someone who is into Aion/DMC/Onimusha/KillerisDead/TheWitcher theme. Thinking about it is the only positive/light-heared game I have enjoyed truly since now.

Anyhow, been playing DM4. Between DM4 and DM5 the difference is night and day. One thing that really disappoints me with DM4 is the soundtrack so far. I mean the battle-music. With DMC5 I was constatly getting hyped to moveforward and feeling the music was giving me a greater combat-wise experience with normal mobs or bosses.

I mean look at Killer is Dead - Warning Spoilers The Tiger that Faded into Darkness. Skip to 6.30 so you can listen to one of the best music backgrounds in game.

Edit: Found it!

I think it's the effect of E3 approaching mixed with the recent jump to new consoles, so both sides need to prove their choice was the RIGHT one, particularly I can't wait for all this craziness pass and the forum become more civil again.

Chrome's built in Translate needs some of the kinks ironed out as it almost got my hopes up. Checking out the latest Nvidia diver releases on their Chinese site it appeared that the newer 337.90 WHQL drivers for Internet cafés were optimised for "Halo 2 shock". What it turns out to actually be with a proper translation is Guild Wars 2. Oh well who knows what may be by then end on next week.

Lets join in the fun.

Sorry these games aren't too amazing but it's free right? Went through my Humble Bundles and thought people would get more fun out of these than I would.

No idea how good some of these games are. No restrictions on entry because I'm sure most people already have them.

No its fine..may a bit low. Your voice reminds me of some voices used in video games.

Haha. Gonna take it as a compliment. :p I did actually remember AFTER I finished rendering it in Sony vegas that I should have put the voice volume higher. :p

You probably understood English is not my main language in that video (it's Norwegian).
