Metroidvania

People called Romanes they go the house?
Hoping for a decent sale on Wolfenstein, but I'm not gonna be optimistic about a good % this close to release.

Prob gonna be 35-40, ugh.

South Park will probably have a good deal tho.....right?

Well I have 3 games on Uplay but haven't installed the Uplay program yet. However, months ago I installed the Steam version of Forgotten Sands which had a Uplay launcher, so maybe I am already infected, like a zombie bite or something.
 
I've already dropped $30 on games from different sites this week, and the sale hasn't even started yet! I guess this is what it feels like to be a true Steam sale junkie.

Hmmm. nice, the first Black Mirror is now on steam. No biggie for most people but the first game in the trilogy was always hard to come across for adventure fans. I will buy these during the summer sale. Excellent adventure games.

Always eyed these games so I'm glad the first is on Steam at last, excited to pick them up during the summer sale.

Okay, got something going. GOG.com gives you a ticket number to use in the download if you gift a game. Therefore, whoever wins this, put the gift certificate number at the end of the below url to download the game! :D

Is TAGES something that's installed when you install the game, or it only runs while the game is running?

If the latter, wouldn't replacing the .EXE on Steam with the one from GOG fix most issues?

It gets installed into your computer. Normally it shouldn't do anything bad to your PC, but some games had such an atrocious implementation of TAGES that they straight up fucked up your computer.

edit: yeah, should point out that most games that use TAGES have the DRM removed once you uninstall the game. As far as I'm aware, there doesn't seem to be any problems with Riddick's TAGES implementation, but since that DRM's history is dicey, I wouldn't take that chance especially when there is a DRM-free version readily available.

Jase was saying you can crack the exe before running the game and then you should be fine.

You can choose which actor/actress the hero resembles or you can type any name.

Aw, you got me excited for a moment there. :p

Looks like the ban on the Euro Truck dev got lifted.

Common sense prevails!

Jase was saying you can crack the exe before running the game and then you should be fine.

It probably goes without saying that if at some point you verify the game's cache, then you'll need to replace the exe again as the cracked one will fail Steam's verification check.
 
I just got out of the shower, sat down at my desk, and saw your beautiful face with a new copy of Gunpoint (which has been on my wish list ever since release). You're the best, xie xie~~~
You're welcome, Steam is having problems so I had to try multiple times to get it through.

Thanks Benedict for Nekro!


Welcome back Jawmuncher! I never really asked, but are you infantry (LCP? lol) or POG?

I have passed on Gunpoint several times because I want the extras and talk myself out of spending $7. So to anyone who has all that stuff, how is it? I love commentary, so I'll at least get the middle tier. Are the prototype levels in the exclusive edition worth seeing?

Jawmuncher is obviously part of the Secret Operation Raid Team.

Good friend of mine is a cop, everyone always expects his job to be murder solving and bad guy shooting when in reality it's 70% paperwork and 30% depressing talk with victims if various crimes (his words).

I'm sure the reality of military is equally harsh

So my co-op buddy for this and I both bought two separate two-packs. Thanks to our miscommunication, two of you shall benefit! However I would like to warn that Ibb & Obb is not as fun without a partner so if you enter do so at the request that you play it with the other winner. It's really a charmer! Kettle's soundtrack is soooo good.

Give the OST a listen, delve into Kettel's other works and whoever wins I hope you two enjoy life as gumdrops together.
