Didn't see this posted yet:

Super Win the Game (the sequel to the free You Have To Win The Game) just got a free update:



There's now a minimap and a regular map with hints to the collectables, which is a pretty neat addition.

It also added speedrun courses. (go to the town to the east of where you start)

The game is also discounted now.

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.
I'm surprised you didn't take issue with the phrasing morningbus used. Especially since I know how much you love FF6. More, sure. Better? Laughably untrue. PS2 was the home of a lot of the worst FF games to ever be created. SNES had 3 and 2 of them rank toward the top of the all time greats list. The third one was arguably more fun than X, X-2, and XII.

Yeah I thought about that too - although to be fair all PS2 consoles were backwards compatible and could play PS1 games so it did have access to some of the best games in the series just through that feature alone.

Either way the argument is a bit moot since I'm obviously crazy enough to own all of them on every platform they'll release them on save Microsoft Xbox stuff. I'm crazy but not that crazy.

Thanks for the heads up - I might have to replay this soon. Really great game.

I seriously wonder what the ratio between port-begging to any other kind of post is on the XCOM2 thread.
Is there an easy way to get all posts of a thread in an xml file, that you can run a script over?

That thread was derailed like after 5 posts. No way its possible to have meaningful discussion about the game in it.

You can get Arkham Knight for £19.99 on Funstock Digital with an e-mail code, just how low priced is this game going to get before it's even released?

In my opinion, Hatred isn't offensive. They did a good job evaluating the current climate and got great PR for a fairly okayish twin stick shooter.

So well done on bending gaming press to blast your game out there.

I switched ISPs back in October. My pings, while not always perfect, are much more consistent than before. I'm going to wait another three months before I hop back on that horse, though, as I'll be waving goodbye to ~6Mbps ADSL and rolling out the red carpet for 100Mbps fibre.
Can't wait. I think a lot of people is going to ask you to play with them.

Wait. See, I recently indeed ignored your posts because those smileys started to make my eyes twitch. But if you turn that down I will start reading them again, stop calling you ishaman and stop making fun of you for buying more games than JaseC. While the last part totally is a lie we can fix this, come back!
lashman if you read this. I totally agree with what derExperte said. Stop with the winking and everything will be fine.

btw watching the jim sterling lets play thing it seems like hatred reserved one of its few very deeply meaningful splashes of color to our beloved chromatic aberration

don't check my PC for like 2 days and now Hatred is back on Steam AND a top seller?


edit: well this was timely

I don't think sharing neo-Nazi-affiliated news articles on social media and then letting a group of Gamergate reactionaries carry it like a torch to some free speech pyre is really deserving of a pat on the back or a "good on ya" even if it equated to sales in the end.

But call me old fashioned. ;)

After watching Jim Sterling's video, Hatred seems kind of...bland. The concept of being a mass murderer has the potential to be pretty offensive, but the game itself doesn't seem to be as controversial as it was supposed to be. Plus the character just seems so over the top in terms of edginess that it devalues any shock value that game has.

It kind of feels like Shadow the Hedgehog meets Hotline Miami. As in, it looks very much like an "ow the edge" kind of game.

This is why I was baffled at all the people that expressed interest in it. Like, I have to believe 90 percent of them were just buying into the corny as shit rebellious "they don't want me to have the game!" shtick because the gameplay from day one looked like an incredibly generic game.

Basically, if you like Hatred you probably shop at Hot Topic or like really shitty games.

also i still think xcom2 pc exclusive makes no sense and no way is gonna be like that

didn't xcom1 sell awesome on consoles?

saoirse bought duck dinasty, so no, no morals :p
yeah i guess it was rhetorical :p

looking at it, it gave me the impression that if someone made a movie out of that concept and those visuals it might actually get a completely different reception, like a very disturbing pov of that kind of fucked up character. not necessarily a good movie or one with any sort of merit, but at least one that would probably spark some sort of interest

as a game tho, it just looks like a thing that doesn't really have a point. it's not really offensive, there's much darker violence and torture in many other games that don't have this coating of ridiculousness with the guy doing his batman voice and saying "SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE I KILL THEM TOO FAST" or other dumb shit like that

it's not funny either, it could at least try to be a parody like postal (i think postal really fails at this but w/e), or something.

it's just nothing, money and time wasted into making nothing

Who will be the first of those on my friends list to buy it?
i have a couple already :>

Personally I don't think Hatred would have been banned from discussion if it wasn't for the facebook thingy.

can u pm me this? i don't know what it is and i'm curious

Any FOX news segment about games teaching kids to become terrorists yet?

i mean, there's nothing i've seen in hatred that you can't do in gta, the only difference is in the tone of the whole thing and that it's kind of a garbage game

there's really very little to talk about hatred because of how low it aims

I kind of regret not doing a recommendation for D4 now. It's like a bonkers mashup up of No More Heroes and Deadly Premonition. Friday can't come soon enough but then again I've gone through the demo 5 or more times already.
