Probably a few hours late here, but I just noticed Qvadriga just showed up on Steam today. Qvadriga is *great*.. it's a turn based, simultaneous-action, tactical... chariot race simulator and chariot race team manager sim. There's really not that much else like it out there, and i've found it really, really addictive.

Authority was doing his usual random nonsense copy paste posts yesterday and had a really bizaare one that left people stumped, which included the booty shaker, who now lives in this thread.

Anything Steam-related of note in the last 5 days? E3 plus travel and lack of internet access has me out of the loop.

I'm not sure if it was in the same time frame but, Summer Sale pretty much confirmed for 19th June - end of the month.

If you kept up with E3 that is probably all the rest of the news

Dragons Ti...Crown is cool, and added bonus Sly Cooper vita is also free atm, so I'm joining Salsa in the handheld domination, fuck Steam :eek:

I would just move on. It's all going to end in tears, Shakira and a can of chicken eventually.

Anyway I don't know if you saw the Sleepy Dogs "HD" rumours today. That's at least some news that might delight/sicken you.

I recall some of my friends saying that 'consoles don't need backwards compatibility because people don't want to play old console games.'

So this amuses me.

Can anyone remember pack to the release of Sleeping Dogs? There is free DLC for "High Quality Textures" but I was wondering when and why they were released? Was their a particular issue or complaint or did they just feel like it was a good thing to do?

"HD"? The PC version was already released though? Thought it looked pretty damn good after the high res textures.

Well as I said to anteater above technically even the console versions were "HD". Though to be fair Squinx could release Sleepy Dawgs: 16 colour EGA Edition and I'd snap it up without hesitating. Any excuse to play dress up with Wei Shen again. That and flying roundhouse kick that mother and daughter outside the Nightmarket Safehouse.

Day and date as far as I'm aware. Skyrim was the same. Both were pretty VRAM intensive and I couldn't run higher AA setting and high res textures with 1.5gb VRAM on my 480s without locking up. The rain and weather effects got added in with a later patch as well. United Front really supported Sleeping Dogs and all bar the preorder DLC was made after the game shipped.

Ah. Alright. I should be back to good internet access by the sale then. Thanks.

Alien: Isolation was on fire at E3

Aliens, specifically xenomorphs, don’t like fire. So it’s probably convenient that you’ll be able to grab a flamethrowers and whisky-based molotovs and drown the dark corridors of Alien: Isolation in fire so you can make your mistake when faced with the late H.R. Giger’s slimy baby - amid sobs, of course.

didn't know there was a final hours of mass effect

is it any good

does it explain why it's crap?
Click to expand...

I think there's a still image of some sort of story plan for the Mass Effect 3 ending in there, with the immortal line 'lots of speculation from everyone'.

That helps a bit.

Very true, but I doubt that we'll ever really get to the root of what happened. Bioware don't think they did anything wrong and that the artistic vision for ME3 and it's ending was a good one.

I'm pretty sure that the eccentric and maniacal posts are what usually happens towards the end of the thread... but I guess it must be a form of seasonal affective disorder with the upcoming summer sale

Well it's good to hear how much they supported the game. Hopefully what ever they do with this "HD" version will be friendly
