So what games can we look forward to next month besides Grand Theft Auto V?

I'm like 99.99% sure GTAV won't come out next month ....

 

[texhnolyze]

Stolen credit cards would be my best bet. Probably that's their answer to Valve's new-ish restrictions on gift purchases (gifts can't be traded until 30 days have passed)

The wallet money was obtained fraudulently.

I see. That makes sense.
By giving restriction on gift purchases, they can track those illegal accounts before they can make any purchase more easily.

That could be a fun one, or complete torture, for that GAF Achievement/points group Arthea has been posting.

You'll tear your hair out getting those achievements.

I came across these account sellers on my local forums. They sell fresh accounts with $125 Steam wallet just for $25. There are lots of mixed testimonials that can be found. Some successfully bought/gift games to their main account, some got banned before even trying to bought/gift the games.
I know it's risky and no way I'm going to buy one, but how do they do that? Is that even possible?

Like the others said, the account money is fraudulently obtained and they happily accept $25 'honest' and likely non-refundable cash in return.

 

[Boss Doggie]

What do you mean "locked out"? Valve stopped doing that more than three years ago. He should still be able to access his current game library.

Here's what he said.

This motherfucker added me on Steam, he wanted me to substitute on TF2 Arena, he links me to a fake Mumble, I fall completely for it and install the fuckin' thing but I can't find that chatroom he wants me in. It comes to a point where he removes me and I uninstall the fake Mumble. 6 hours later I lose access to my Friends list. I poke a trader friend who knows this shit, and he tells me to immediately lock my account by tripping the SteamGuard through Internet Explorer (to make it not recognize my login) then use the lockout link

I can log in, but I'm effectively community-banned. Only VAC games I can't play.

Yes, this game is awesome if you want a little hardcore roguelike in your life.

 

[Parsnip]

It's a bit sad that with Dead Rising stuff going to Steamworks, somehow RE5 is still in limbo.
Maybe by the end of this week.

I can shut up, but you know very well I'm probably right

It will. I believe!

 

[Uraizen]

We'll get BBCP Extend and GGXrd Extend. Just watch yo.

When the next version of each is out on console? =(

The better game got out of GFWL first.

 

[Teggy]

Not yet anyway

What are you hiding?

 

[Belgarion]

Got Labyrinthine Dreams but I only entered for Quest of Dungeons, the codes are the same. What should I do? Not going to use the key

Re-raffle it.

 

[abracadaver]

It very much is. Same situation as with SF4. Weirdly no one has mentioned it yet though, but OTR has been working since a few days back, and normal Rising 2 keys just started working as well.

Thats great news

 

[Last Baron]

Weird that OTR DLC is on sale but not the DLC for DR2.

 

[Belgarion]

Re-raffle it.

[Deadbeat]

I want the damn RE5 patch to come out already.

 

[texhnolyze]

Speaking of RE, should I play the first Revelation before jumping to the second game?
And why does Revelation 2 got mixed reviews on Steam?

Edit: nvm the first question, got the answer from the OT.

 

[Elija2]

And why does Revelation 2 got mixed reviews on Steam?

I think most of those are from the performance issues and lack of local co-op. Local co-op was already patched into the game and a performance patch will be coming out pretty soon so those two main criticisms of the PC version should no longer be applicable.

Performance issue? Oh well..
It seems that they're also planing the game to have 11 episodes in total. I guess I'll just wait for a little longer.

 

[The Dear Leader]

I've heard good things about RE:R2, is it essential to play the first one before jumping into the second one?

 

[Corpekata]

There's no way they're planning anything close to 11 episodes. More than likely old junk files not related to anything. The story is fully told, if they wanted to do more they'd probably just release it as Revelations 3.

Not really connected too much. Few references but nothing worth stressing over.

 

[RedFyn]

Are there any sales numbers on hm2 and skylines?

 

[PetriP-TNT]

Skylines was over 500k 3 days ago, I don't think closing in on 1m is too far ahead! No idea about HM2, but I am guessing: a lot.

You're right.
But the performance issue though.. I hope they fix it asap.

No idea about HM2, but Skylines sells over 500k copies in first week.

 

[JaseC]

To be frank, it's not like Valve has done it very often. Ep1, ep2 and Portal off the top of my head. The big HLs always had DM.

HL2M came two weeks later and may have even been slapped together in that time considering how bare-bones it is. HL2 launched with nothing but a SP campaign, unless you want to count Country-Steak: Sauce.

Here's what he said.

Ah, I figured it was something like that as opposed to Valve locking him out.

It may have been bare bones, but ripping toilets out of stalls and flinging them at people entertained everyone for quite a while.

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

mmm country steak and sauce.
My GPU now overheats while playing Go.
But I should order my lappy in the next week or so.

 

[PetriP-TNT]

So where's the cheapest Cities:Skylines? I might waste my weekend doing that.

(Or add it to my 20 deep worldbuilding stack I'll play when I am dead)

Ask a russian to get you an ROW copy from GMG.

 

[Bboy AJ]

I'm moving to a new job across the globe. I shipped my gaming PC yesterday and won't have it for a few weeks

I have my 2011 MacBook Air, though. Any fun, recent games to play on it? I guess I'll finally bite the bullet on Lisa.

 

[JaseC]

Or just use a VPN to buy it yourself.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

GMG has russian prices now?

 

[Ozium]

The Falling Sun is a horror game set in the under appreciated location of late WW2 Burma.

 

[JaseC]

GMG has russian prices now?

Apparently!

 

[PetriP-TNT]

Actually, I'll do the right thing and buy the game full price

Spoiler

with -25% coupon

just because goooo Finland

Ori and the Blind Forest seems fun, and beautiful.

A Capcom rep said that the performance patch will be coming "very soon". I'm guessing in the next few days.

Hotline Miami 2 and Darkest Dungeon both have Mac version and shouldn't be too hard to run I would imagine.

 

[Atraveller]

I don't think a 4-year-old intel graphics card can handle that.

 

[Motorbreath]

I think they blocked buying with VPN (for paypal and cards) couple of weeks ago, because I bought hotline miami 2 from Russian GMG but tried to buy Cities couple of days ago and it didn't work.

I think it's a YMMV thing. Using a VPN with GMG has never worked for me, even when people were swearing black and blue that everything went through just fine for them (e.g. I couldn't buy Manhunt a couple of years ago).

Might and Magic Clash of Heroes is very addicting. Various PnC games should run fine on the Air too I think.
