Mediocre everything I guess.

It's Mass Effect but in 60s era XCOM done mediocre.

It's not XCOM, it's not Bioshock, it's not even Mass Effect 2. It's just bad.

The name killed the game. It's not a bad game, but it's a bad XCOM (and we already had an awful X-COM TPS, Enforcer)
Is this an ad?
In any case, it is real money in a sense, but it is less liquid than cash, and it can't be converted back into legal tender so it has limited utility compared to a dollar bill. It carries the value of money in so far as you can buy (a specific set of) goods with it, but because of the limits on how you can spend it, some people would likely value $1 in paper money more than $1 in Steam wallet.
I never got past the first real mission early on in game, where you go into a town. I never felt like it was rewarding enough from a strategy stand point and it's just not all that special as an action game of constantly moving.
I wish they had stuck to the idea of making a FPS in the vein of Bioshock rather than trying to appease everyone (the ones that wanted only X-Com as they knew it, and those that thought a FPS set in the 50s against aliens looked cool), as they satisfied neither.

Money is whatever people decide to be money, and whatever value it holds depends on various factors like the example Deitus gave. I can give you 3 bottle caps for that nice tag you have.
It's very average, but if you like Xcom, you'll probably like it okay.

Welcome to basically every fight in the game.
I don't get that boss. It just runs around with a daft-looking face, performing wrestling moves when it's not farting up the plague or taunting you with an ass shake. Not fun. Not scary. Not unsettling. Unless you consider the mom from Honey Boo Boo the epitome of terror.

He's sacrificing himself for the good of all.
Pretty much. Ugh.
I play games people gift me, remember.
I don't want to be rude.
Edit: Finally, did it
with one civilian woman surviving
stupid fucking civ AI that keeps running into you and blocking your shots

Momodora 3 is great. It plays a bit like Cave Story. Really fun for the sale price.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
For a really long, involved answer: the many faces of the bureau: xcom declassified: from 2006 to 2013
Somewhat shorter answer is that it had a really long, troubled development. It's very short, but is quite visually beautiful in spots. The plot gets pretty incoherent by the end, and hits you with a Deus Ex left-field multi-choice ending that's unsatisfying. The gameplay never manages to rise above meh Mass Effect knock off.
The upside is you can knock it out in a few play sessions, especially on the easier difficulties.
I don't know where you're getting this. It's fundamentally different in tone and mechanics from both the original X-COM and the XCOM remakes. It reminded me more of Mafia II and Mass Effect than anything else.
If I were paid to post that link, would it be real money?
No, I just saw that site mentioned here a few days ago and I have been playing around with it since. But I'm having trouble adjusting the value columns since it's not like I paid straight dollar amounts for...97% of my library?
Oh. Oh! Is M&M money real money? It pays cable bills like real money.

Is the 3.5GB day 1 patch just for consoles, or we will get it for PC as well?

Dark Souls 2, dood.
Maybe once I stop getting my ass kicked in Dark Souls.
Considering how many build updates AK has had today according to SteamDB, I'd count on there being a bit more to download come release.
Just joined a game for the first time today, happened to get Dom and Blitz. You're welcome to them, just send me a trade request.

looks good. any other sugestions?
Hey, I've also thoroughly enjoyed stuff people have gifted me!
I'm just usually too busy to gripe about them then and just do a final "this game was really good, guys" =p
I've already started doing this for the levels I've beaten lol.
I think I found the hidden gem in there, thanks js!
I loved playing life of pixel on my Vita. Its shame what happen to the sequel.
