I dont know. When the game was released last year, almost "all" of SteamGAF were talking about it, how they like this rivalry system and that it could be a GOTY.

Nice giveaway, but that reminds me, has there been any word on Syberia III? Wasn't it supposed to be released this year?
We'll know by thursday at the latest, going by past sale cycle up times.

SUPERHOT IS RELEASING SOON?! Looks like Arkham Knight became an even greater non-event.

Syberia III is supposed to release this year, yeah. The franchise's facebook page seems relatively up to date, and doesn't mention any changes in the release schedule. That said, the most recent mentions of the game are all related to different art exhibitions, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was pushed back to 2016.
Ce jeu a une quantité incroyable de seins. Obtenez ce jeu , vous pouvez donc profiter de cette aventure remplie avec des seins appétissants.

Really nice OP there Mr. Schackles!
Welcome to the June 2015 NeoGAF Steam thread! We mostly talk about Steam, but we also talk about other things.
These are of very high interest to me. Nice write-ups people!
SUPERHOT - uzzy
SUPERHOT is a first person shooter, developed by SUPERHOT Team. Playing as an unnamed agent fighting against enemies bent on killing you, you must work your way through a series of minimalist office blocks, fighting your way through your enemies with limited ammunition, with time as your only ally. Time moves only when you do.
SUPERHOT (and yes, you need to use all caps for this) looks really unique, using a fantastic minimalist aesthetic to great effect, and a colour pallet limited to red for enemies and bullet trails, black for guns and bullets, and white for everything else. But it's the defining mechanic that most makes the game interesting to me. As the developers succinctly put it, 'Time moves only when you do.' This turns what would otherwise be a straight forward FPS into a puzzle or strategy game, where you have to carefully plan out your movement to dodge bullets and take down your foes. SUPERHOT is the Matrix's bullet time, mixed with Mirror's Edge's colour style and Braid's puzzle mechanics. SUPERHOT is super hot.
Universe Sandbox ² - jshackles
The original Universe Sandbox was great but really limited in scope. Essentially, it was a gravity simulator - which is cool because it let you do some amazing things and load some really cool cosmic "what if" scenarios. Universe Sandbox² expands on the original by adding in other factors such as plantary climate simulation, chemical simulations, stellar evolution, terraforming, dark matter simulations, and greatly improved collisions. If you were a fan of the original Universe Sandbox, you're going to want to pick this up.
While not a "game" in the traditional sense, the original game was fun to play around with. Even if you only have a cursory knowledge of planetary and stellar physics, there's a lot to do here as well. If you're like me and have a love of science and a deep understanding of astrophysics, you'll still find that Universe Sandbox² is a great way to concoct amzingly elaborate "what if" scenarios that produce detailed and visually stunning simulations. On top of all of that, Universe Sandbox² seems to be an even better teaching tool than the original game, which was released to schools for free. I found the original Universe Sandbox to be a great teaching tool for my high-school aged children, and with the bredth of content available in the new release it's easy to see how this could be used effectively in a classroom setting.
- So when does the 'Winter/Spring/Summer/Autumn' sale start? This month you're in luck! It's set to start on the 11th. But usually, nobody fuckin knows!
Wow that is an awesome Bat-design. Looks like a freaking tank.They shoulda gone big like BvS or this one:

Zkylon was talking about that game, he seemed to like it.

The rivalry stuff feels like a spreadsheet with some randomizers tossed in. It's amusing for a couple hours but gets very tiresome once it's shallowness becomes apparent.

Yeah. Totally. I didnt really feel like it even had any impact on the gameplay itself. Just some enemies change and thats it.
you'll feel so down about yourself after playing, it's awesome

Some little thoughts on Witcher after about 40 hours.
Game has a lot to offer but also a lot which has to be stomached at first. Characters, world and themes are the highlight. Mechanics not on the same level sadly. Signs are the most fun part about combat because they are so direct compared to swordplay. Latter is still ok, just feels to indirect for me.
That Vizima part - Chapters 2&3 - were just too long. It got tedious.
I like having side-quests but sadly many are just fetch this, kill x number of y monster. There are good ones though. Once in the Trade Quarters it also got harder to find new people to play Dice with. Makes sense since it's an illegal game which low-level citizens play but I like the game for real. One of the better mini-games, really.
I feel a bit of wear from doing almost every possible thing which is why I'll probably try to stick to main story from now on. I kinda want it to finish.
It got a lot better once I got to Chapter IV, the Lakeside. Just gorgeous! Why not earlier a change of scenery? Too much time was spent on Vizima which was cool at first but defo not for two chapters.
I also think the bg music in Vizima sucked balls. It really is amazing how the bg music in Ch.4 makes it more relaxing and fun to stroll and discover the map.
Good Lord I got sick of Vizima. Hope I won't have to return there.
Here some screens.

Can't wait to see how it affects 770 and Witcher 3.
980Ti's pricing is tempting, but I think I'm gonna wait for the next architecture.
Why does my thing tell me I have a new update (which is this one) but on website I can only get the 352.86.
I don't need the new one but the constant reminder is annoying.
That dog has pretty good taste in games.

I'm still expecting the pc version to get delayed at the last minute.
Like we play the games we buy on sale. please...
It's nearly that time of the year... where people will fall into the TRAP.
See?
Wasn't really that hopeful about that game in the first place.
Don't argue, The difference between 75% and 90% on a cheap game like that is just a few cents. Just get it. BTW I almost bought it. But it turns out I already own it. Can't keep track at this point.
I have a AMD 7950 3 gigs. Where would it fit on that chart? Isn't my card just rebranded as the 280?

I feel like I'll need that many appendages to handle all I'll need to do.
Yes.. yes I do.
Second game finished this weekend! I'm on a roll!
I started and finished Bermuda.
The whole game is about 2 hours and is completely narrated (!).
I just put it on auto and listened to it.
It's not Shakespeare, but it was nice to have an indie VN that's fully voiced.
The VA-ing is actually decent too.

W3 sure had me fooled in thinking when the end of the game was. Still have a ton of main quests to do.

Tested and is a big improvement on my 760. Finally.
Now to test if my OC won´t crash as it was before.
It's time to back your bags and move away from minus.
I actually went to minus frontpage yesterday for the first time after I backed up my galleries, and it was full of Asian ladies. For some reason.

It is a good game. Kate Walker is something of a bitch, though.
they're just too many, it would take forever to move them somewhere else, so that's probably it for my zooey gifs
