guys, stop talking nonsense, get on that nintendo twitch channel. playing the game of the generation, smash bros.

It's my birthday. Does that mean I need to give away a game to appease the SteamGAF gods? I have HL2 in my inventory... The first game i added to steam interestingly enough, which I'd find appropriate to give out. I'd like it if people added me to steam too... Account is augiemarch.

I adore being a PC only convert. I've had so many interesting gaming experiences in the last six months... More than the previous few years of console only gaming combined for sure.

And I've probably spent $250 or so on the sale so far. Life is good.

Did you follow the rules about "Wait for a daily or flash"?

And Happy Birthday.

 

[Maniac]

Yeah,

Spoiler

they're officially bankrupt and the dinosaurs are already loose in the wilds.
Perhaps another investor will rebuild it after years of regaining trust from public, which is a huge work lol,

That would work, buuuut Pratt has signed on for more JW, and... It'd be a little weird to continue it that way and still have his character in it, imo.

The ending was really strange.

Spoiler

They make multiple references to the park being bankrupt and in Chapter 11, but the only thing the public knows is that a bunch of flying creatures got loose and attacked everyone for a few minutes until the situation was contained. InGen/Masrani could easily spin that situation to their advantage ("our CEO died in a tragic accident during a tour!") Likewise, the happy ending with Pratt's and Howard's characters is a bit blunted because she essentially abandoned her post to find her nephews, which spearheaded this whole situation in the first place, and she's the highest-ranking executive left alive to answer for what happened.

But hey, I guess it's cool that we got a big fight at the end.

Aye. Buuuut in the

Spoiler

very last scene, you see the entire island several years later, overgrown and all that jazz

So... I really don't know how they'll make a sequel out of it.

Spoiler

The last scene was a mistake, imo.

Spoiler

Maybe they'll do a cop-out and place it on another mystery island we've never heard of! It's worked before.

 

[Stallion Free]

At least Microsoft didn't remove it from the store, but no discount at all is a little ridiculous.

The real shame is that they didn't switch Fable 3, the only worthwhile game in the series, over to Steamworks.

 

[iosefe]

the nintendo stream has been quite the ride

 

[Kagemusha]

I put in my first refund request for The Forest. It just isn't fun for me.

I think I'll keep Darkest Dungeon, Homeworld, and Victor Van.
Not sure if I want to buy J.U.L.I.A.

It's basically a nice boat simulator.

I'm trying to get into some of the Prince of Persia games. Played a few minutes of Warrior Within earlier today, and that shit was just unbearable. I remember thinking it was the coolest game ever when it came out, but it's just trash hahah.

PoP 2008 is the complete opposite so far, I've never played it before, and only just started, but I'm in love already. It's got some of the prettiest graphics I've ever seen, music is good, and the Prince seems like a cool guy. Guess he grew out of his Drowning Pool phase
What did you guys think of it?

I love PoP08. Talk to Elika as much as humanly possible.

I love PoP 2008. It's absolutely gorgeous and has a great soundtrack. The gameplay is a bit simple, but I still enjoy it, and Elika's one of the best NPC companions around.

I like you and your opinion.

 

[spindoctor]

I never understood why PoP 2008 got such a poor reception. It was a pretty great game as far as I'm concerned. I believe a lot of people were unhappy with the resurrection mechanic back in the day. I don't know how repeating checkpoints makes the game any better than respawning right where you failed.

Ubi did fuck over PC gamers with the DLC though.

 

[PARANO1A]

I did. I'm just deal happy with a few hundred games on my wish list.

I imagine the last day will be painful.

I enjoyed it. Timing windows were larger, and the combat QTE was a little weak, but the game was still a fun platformer with gorgeous visuals.

 

[dot]

The reason PoP 2008 failed is because it took everything that made the Sands of Time trilogy great and replaced it with turrible combat and platforming where you can't die and a Prince that is literally Nathan Drake.

Also the ending was sold as dlc or something.

No thanks, bro.

It was actually more like an epilogue they sold. And somehow even after that they teased a sequel...

I live!!!

My desktop can't run Korra properly T_T
Anyone up for some rounds of Lethal League? I wanna get the feel of the game but bots are too easy.

The Forest had so much potential.

 

[zkylon]

So no Milamber then?

he's more like fun kind of creepy i'd say

 

[Grief.exe]

The Forest had so much potential.

How are the updates coming? I see movement periodically on the database.

 

[Shadownet]

This is what I was referring, looks cool but in a dumb way (kind of reminded me of Lost World tbh) If the plot actually explains it without it being completely stupid or something ridiculous I will be surprised.

Anyways I got 2 free movie tickets lying around so I might as well go an see it.

Trust me. Once you see the movie. You will understand why that part is so badass.

 

[MUnited83]

PoP 2008 is my favorite in the series( and I played the trilogy before it several times). I don't get the complains about the "revival" mechanic. That or turning back time when you fuck up on Sands of Time is basically the same thing so eh.

 

[Annubis]

Apparently you missed this part in the trailer.

Most badass moment ever.

You mean this part?

I didn't have a computer for six months so I haven't kept up.

 

[Ventara]

Have I ever mentioned how awesome of a guy Shadownet is? Because he is. I talk to him for a bit after a few months to catch up, and I end up walking away with Shadow of Mordor GOTY!!!! How did that even happen? The guy's practically begging me to take a game from him, lol. Anyways, I big, BIG thank you to him. The guy is Santa Claus, except not fat and without the goofy get-up.

Shadow is an upstanding guy.

Even though he took me off his Steam friend's list. I blame that I don't talk much on steam.

Guys...

SUPER MARIO MAKER

Super Mario Maker is going to be the greatest game of all time.

Too bad I don't have a Wii U.

Hopefully it'll eventually come to the 3DS.

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

People are going to do some really insane things with Super Mario Maker. I'm glad that Nintendo is making it.

That's a damn shame, but I knew it was coming. Time to uninstall.

Believe me when I say, I didn't do if on purpose. I will re-add you when I get home tonight. Must have been a mistake from a cleaning.

 

[Phawx]

NWC are fun to watch.

Also I really like the idea of Nope-Doors

 

[Grief.exe]

I didn't have a computer for six months so I haven't kept up.

How do we know it hasn't lived up to its potential then? Small studio though, give them a wide berth to finish this one off.

i've considered a cleansing of my list, but it's like...300 SteamGAFfers

I figured it was something along the lines of cleaning to make room for people. I was poking fun.

Yeah, same. I don't do much multiplayer stuff so my list is kinda small.

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

The only problem I have with NWC is the weird camera cuts. If they want to show the reaction of the players than they should do a PIP format and then go full screen on the player once the game is over.

Hope it comes back next year (and I hope they'll show some games for Project NX).

 

[WinterDemons]

I forget to tag people with their GAF names so I forgot who's who on my friend list unless their name is the same.

Well I was waiting for Zelda to come out but this craziness just might have sold me on it.

But jesus I'm getting Super Meat Boy flashback from the levels they are playing.

Got Traders, Workshop Folks, $:.VIP.:$ and SteamGAF.

No thanks, bro.

Protags don't die in most games, since you just load a checkpoint and the game world continues on as if nothing happened.

At least in PoP08 the mechanic was in-world and makes the prince actually vulnerable.
Also the trick they do in the last Concubine fight is neat and dumb and I liked it.

 

[zkylon]

shadownet is a weirdo that likes adding and removing ppl randomly for no reason

don't feel bad if he removes you

i almost never remove anyone since ppl from neogaf tend to be pretty friendly

only a few undesirables a couple times

The Fall is really fucking good.

That is all.

looks really cool, but hoping it'll go a tiny bit cheaper

every penny counts when you're broke

This is my biggest problem. Sometime people change their name and I have no idea who's who.

Will I be able to finish WolfTOB before it's time?

Well that was entertaining. Time for some Bethesday.

 

[derExperte]

Done with The Old Blood, was of course good but the best thing is getting 40GB back in time for the Arkham Knight preload. If there will be one.
