Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Wait until you play FC4. Wildlife in FC4 is way more brutal than in FC3. Dogs, wolfs, bears, eagles, tigers, rhinos, EAGLES...
yea it's more of deciding which one to buy and actually having the money for it
Money usually is not issue, there is no money XD
Fuck those eagles man.
Best to wait until AMD unveils the 300 series. If nothing else, Nvidia is bound to respond with a 980 price drop, possibly to the level of the 970 (or thereabouts) given how far the latter has fallen out of favour recently.

had to, sorry
STOP REMINDING US OF THE GLORIOUS RUSSIA BEAR!

If I remember correctly, you can save at any time, so you could certainly play for 15 minutes at a time.
it kinda is for me cos i have my savings in usd and got to change those
i've been told this but no one knows when and the best i've gotten is "in a few months" and like i don't really want to be without a video card for months
also i'm guessing if the 980 drops the 970 will drop but i can't imagine it dropping to a level i can afford it either
it's a sucky time for my video card to break, but i'm not too demanding about graphics, i just want good framerate and for it to last a bit at least. unfortunately it's kind of uncertain if it'll last since it's super early in console stages but u know maybe i'll have a job in a year or two from now
Just give it some honey. Or marmalade.

Fucking yiss. Loved the first part.
so apparently not even activating gifts through a VPN works now, right?
someone sent me a link that since a couple of days ago all games need to be played from that region, something which I believe only happened with a few before
steam is seriously doubling down on the region stuff

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
I was looking for a specific kind of game yesterday, but I didn't know exactly what it was. Dsyndrome suggested Dishonored and after looking at a lot of footage online, i'm pretty sure that's the kind of thing I was searching for. So, thanks!
...
It's a tad too expensive now, though. Here's hoping it'll show up in a sale soon.
I've just finished Tomb Raider: Underworld and it's been an...interesting experience. It's clunky, very clearly a rushed product and riddled with bugs but man, they really did nail the adventurous feel. The last couple of levels are a tad annoying, but the game's first half was great. The way the puzzles and platforming where integrated into the enviroments was pretty great. Exploration was a real joy. If they just spent a couple more months on the game and polished it a little, it could have been a real gem. Now it's the weakest in the Amelia trilogy.
Oh, and if you thought Tomb Raider 2013's story and characters where horrible, just wait till you experience this dramatic gem...
Heh.

It works... it's just that you'd also need a VPN to play it. Games bought for the user's own account aren't region-locked in the same way, though, unless the store sub is set up that way by the publisher -- it's a change to how ACRTAG functions, so items bought directly for an account are unaffected.

Yeah, but they still forget that South America is bigger than just Brazil and Mexico
yeah, but I gather knowing that the EULA goes all nuts on account restriction if you use VPNs its probably a good way to keep people scared

Talking about life is strange I'm curious what's going on with
Aside from that I hope the rewind mechanic turns out to be useful as a story element. I'm not really digging it as being an actual part of the story yet. But we'll see where it goes.
the dad. I have a feeling he's not as bad as he is made out to be despite some fucked up stuff he's done in ep1. Like the confrontation you stop isn't all it seems to me.
im gonna go ahead and assume the rewind thing is gonna be a gimmick for the whole series
i mean it's kind of cool cos you get to see the immediate results of your choices, but most of the times you can predict those already, so it's not a big deal. i'm hoping they make people more unpredictable so you have to work more using that, but i'm guessing they will not turn it into a "deep gameplay mechanic", tho i would love to, specially the whole going back and keeping memories/items but also the whole "teleporting" thing of like watching people exit a room and leave the door open, going inside and then rewinding so you're in from the beginning thing
but yea specially the memory keeping thing that reminds me a bit of ng+ in chrono trigger and maybe a bit of majora's mask

Here is the full list:
I played and enjoyed these. Pretty cool that DOS got GOTY cause it deserves it... although I still have yet to finish it myself.
I guess this was steam games only, but hearthstone would top even DOS for me if any PC game could win. And then despite its shortcomings, Titanfall would also fall on my list.
(Disclaimer: My experience of Life is Strange is from an ongoing lets play) I really hope the

I was really disappointed by Assassin's Creed: Rogue.
The game really failed to nail any of the aspects that I appreciate in the series.
1. Place in History: the French and Indian War has always felt like the prequel to the Revolutionary War that everyone pretty much forgets about in history class because of how quickly you move through it. It just isn't memorable the way that the Renaissance era, the French Revolution, or the actual Revolutionary War is. There aren't any outstanding events that the narrative ties into (I don't care how silly it gets in the other games, it's fun), it just feels bland and unexciting. Rail on Unity all you want, it was pretty damn cool being present for the execution of King Louis XVI.
2. Location: I love New England, but this was another complete misfire. The one city they have is completely forgettable and has zero cool landmarks. It really felt like it was just a bunch of assets they had from AC3/4/Liberation taped together. The River Valley is frustrating to explore and gets old fast. The Arctic is a bit better and looks pretty neat at times, but it ends up still feeling like the Caribbean from AC4 with icebergs thrown in. I'm looking forward to AC: Victory simply because I know they can't screw up London.
3. Historical Characters/Culture: This game has a couple scenes with Ben Franklin and that's pretty much it (he is barely fleshed out at all). One of the best bits in previous games have been interacting with major players from the history books, like Napoleon, Washington, Da Vinci, etc. in a significant way. Rogue instead chooses to rely on a couple returning characters from previous games and uses them in a really underwhelming fashion. It's just not the same. Similarly, they continue the Edward Kenway trend of creating a main character completely devoid of any interesting culture. I ride hard for Connor from AC3 because they directors for that game doused him in Native American culture. Cormac in Rogue has an Irish accent and that's it.
The game just feels like a reskinned AC4 at the end of the day. For anyone interested in experiencing Assassin's Creed's ship combat I'd recommend just purchasing Freedom Cry. It features a cool main character with actual purpose and an interesting back story. The location is restrained and doesn't feel pointlessly large. It's also less that 4$ at the moment.

It's as if you gave up halfway through
Yes, freed slaves are a means of progression.
that's only way to play AssCreed games, anyway
no, I haven't played AssFree yet, but it had to be said

I was referring to the joke actually but I guess that applies.
Nuuvem sells it for nice price.

The season pass was below half price somewhere a few weeks ago.
freeing 10 slaves giving you a +5 smokebomb satchel size sounds pretty dumb to me, yeah

I tried out Payday 2, but didn't really enjoy it that much. I played a mission with AI partners, and was hoping to stealth my way through it, but I guess that's not an option unless you unlock those types of characters through the stat point thing? I don't know how I feel about that. Usually I like character progression, but it seems like you're too limited in the beginning. I had to hash it out with the cops for 20 minutes, because I had no stealth take down option (tried melee but it didn't amount to anything) and the drills for the safes were slow (I'm guessing upgrades make those faster, too). I dunno. I don't think I'm too fond of the whole "hold down button until thing happens" type of interaction either.
How does Payday 1 compare to Payday 2? I actually own that one, so I intend to beat it eventually. Might make it low priority if it's too similar though. The slog might be bearable if there's a story at all...
