Support NeoGAF

Only one of them is 75% off, it's a no brainer.

Don't tell me you forgot how to play Steam?

you have a point, you, Ozie and Peter win this round, Fable it is.

 

[Benedict]

I believe they offered a significant discount to original owners if I remember correctly.

I never saw that discount.

Have made a request for refund for the game. Hope that covers the DLC Breakdown as well, or do I have to make a separat request for that?

 

[Shadownet]

Usually working in retail causes one to lose faith in humanity. I know it did for me I remember you saying that you worked at GameStop and Best Buy so I was saying that it's admirable to have kept it for so long. Now you're as cynical as the rest of us.

tl;dr bad joke is bad

Oh hahaha yeah working at GameStop made me gave up on humanity more times than I can remember. Best Buy been great so far, the people and the customers are really respectful and mature. Much more so than GameStop.

 

[ArjanN]

last chance to voice your valued opinion: Ethan Carter or Fable?

It's more of a question which will go lower sooner, but let's pretend it is not that, for fun.

Ethan Carter.

 

[bakeray]

Are Bundlestars games the same price in each region? About to buy the Gauntlet 4-pack but wanted to know if there was a way to get it cheaper?

 

[wilflare]

They did offer a discount to those that purchased the game initially. I can't speak to any other poor practices the developers may have done however. Seems like the game has extremely poor reviews on Steam and may be due to what you are referring to.



Sidebar, I find it hilarious how they continue to mention 1080p like this is some kind of amazing feature in 2015. Welcome to ~2008 I guess.



Sorry, I got hyped up and didn't fully comprehend your post.

sorry I'm not making sense at all
basically I'm running Korra in Borderless Windowed Fullscreen
however, the game is not centered it's aligned to the top :/
any idea how to fix?

no, not the same, much more expensive in EU

"Clicky-click
Unlocks once the specified number of clicks have been registered in the game today" isn't moving at all. Maybe because everyone's using scripts? Or because the numbers are stupidly high even when everyone's using scripts.

Well it definitely is stupidly high. With about a million people playing (we have less currently, but we had about as much on previous days), people are going to have to click on average 100,000 times.

Assuming every single person was clicking at a rate of 5 clicks per second non stop, that would be 5 and a half hours of doing nothing but clicking. The only way we unlock that is if auto-clickers count, and even then it's going to take a ton of people using them.

Mass Effect with KB/M is best Mass Effect.

The look and run like shit on the 360/PS3. Buy a Steam controller and play them on PC when it arrives.

I can't think of many cases where playing the console version would be optimal, but Mass Effect is certainly not the case.

Grab some texture and controller mods while you're at it, since Bioware can't be bothered to include existing controller support. To be fair, at least in Mass Effect 1's case, the interface was perfect for mouse/keyboard.

EDIT: I like the Steam controller idea.

If it's available on PC, PC it is.

So yes, play it on PC.

Thanks guys. I just wanted to be sure, as some PC ports seems to be lackluster. Like DoA5 and Mortal Kombat X.

 

[fantomena]

Bought Lego Jurassic Park from Bundle Stars. It's accurately 50% cheaper there than on Steam.

Got that dinosaur itch after I started watching Jurassic Park movies last week.

Too bad that ARK game is still in EA.

Quietest day for me thus far -- just two pieces of a DLC and a game.

 

[Annubis]

Not even 25,000,000,000 clicks yet.
Get clicking SteamGAF.

 

[rtcn63]

Stump needs to put some of those new midibytes to work for the sake of click-gaf.

I got into the /v/ room today. It's third, behind two reddit rooms so far. Not bad.
I think this is all worthless until the final day, which is when you want to get into the best room you can.

I haven't been following this that closely, why is that the case?

 

[StrangeTaco]

It's almost a common practice now, just re-label the "new" game as a "remaster" sell it for a few buck more, and force owners of the original version to buy it in order to get any of the new updates, Namco did the same blood sucking move with Dark Souls II, really scummy move by the publishers.

I thought the original DS2 also got the updates, it just didn't get the new DX treatment and item/enemy placements?

Also the number of clicks necessary to unlock all three sales is just insane, not sure what Valve was thinking with that one.

We have been getting to an exponentially higher level every day. Just wake up early on the final day and get into a good room and you got the best badge you can get.

Yeah, it got the new story content but nothing else. Dunno if it's still getting other updates like the durability fix, etc.

I'm currently looking at snagging two games today, but figured I'd see if SteamGAF has any objections. The two games are:

Grim Fandango Remastered - Soundtrack Edition
The Vanishing of Ethan Carter​

For The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, is the Collector's Edition upgrade worth it at ~$3.50? I'm mainly just interested in the soundtrack, if it's good, but $3.50 just for that seems a bit steep.

Any thoughts?

 

[Corpekata]

Grim Fandango is one of the best games of all time. Get that, presuming you never played it.

Ethan Carter was good but I thought a bit overhyped. Can't say I remember much about the soundtrack either way to gauge if the upgrade is worth it.

 

[lashman]

 

[Ozium]

[Avinexus]

Honestly? No reason, unless you want a really high number on your monster badge. Once you get the max Steam XP from the badge (200XP) there is no benefit unless Valve announces something later on down the line.

Grim Fandango is excellent if you enjoy point and click adventure games.

I'm pretty sure Dino Crisis sold more than shenmue.

Awesome, thanks guys. So Grim Fandango is a lock (I've played part of it before, but the original version had some serious compatibility issues with newer Windows that prevented me from finishing it at the time).

Seems like Ethan Carter is 50/50. Any thoughts on that? Seems like the Collector's Edition upgrade is probably not worth it, as nobody has strong opinions on it -- maybe something worth picking up later when it's cheaper?

 

[JaseC]

Shenmue 1+2 HD incoming.

Exclusive to the Vita.

 

[autoduelist]

Worth noting that there is a demo to try. I found the humor did absolutely nothing for me at the beginning and I quickly dropped all interest, but it seemed like a very mechanically sound text RPG, with some modern niceties thrown in to make life easier.

Hmmm... humor? Didn't notice one way or the other. I'm not sure anyone who loves it is playing for the humor. It's a turn based combat sim with tons of other fun stuff.

 

[Ozium]

nope shenmue 1 and 2 remastered, and then shenmue 3..

[Haunted]

Should I buy How to Survive?

For that price, absolutely. Even if you just play for an hour or two, that's worth.

 

[Leafhopper]

For that price, absolutely.

Yeah I am probably just going to get it.

Makes sense for Sega to release it on the Wii U, after all it's Dreamcast spiritual successor.
