Crooked mouths: the game.

Sounds like a good concept. But something about that art style unnerves me, and I don't think I can get past it.

It's a giveaway so everything's fair game, but there's a semi-infinite number of things that the giver could've put as their favorite band, and unless something's hidden in their BBC code, I don't know how someone's going to guess an anonymous person's favorite band outside of knowing the answer, unless it's a mainstream culprit that can be interpreted as a band.
It'd be like me asking folks what my favorite band is, knowing nothing about who I am, what I like, etc.

Is it Nickelback?

It must be Faith + 1.
Can confirm it isn't

I hope Stump or someone posts a list of all the bands people have tried. That could be fun.
I didn't enter, but that's my guess as well. I bet modbot is super into Paranoid Android.
What an absolute bummer. :/
Still my favorite game though.
i liked it a lot, i actually finished it with dark and light side and everything back in the day. but i don't think i would care much for it if i played it again today
like i'd appreciate what it's trying to do, but that combat was not very much fun for me even back then and it missing like huge chunks of the game is not awesome
but hey, i won't fault you for it

I'm wondering whether to start with OG Wasteland 2 or the Director's Cut, I seem to be reading some pros and cons about either version. What would SteamGAF recommend me to start with?

It's a little disheartening that posters on Neogaf of all places would lack the critical thinking skills to understand what UWPs actually mean for the future of Windows applications. So many people in that thread keep going on and on about how there's nothing wrong with Microsoft setting up their own store (which isn't even in contention) and how it's exactly what Steam does. You'd think people would stop to wonder why a genius programmer and close ally of Microsoft is pressing the panic button over this stuff. They're trying to play a long game that will probably take a couple of OS refreshes to come to fruition if we allow it to happen, but apparently some people just can't see that far ahead.
There were some bright spots in the game. You could be wandering around and come across some random building that had an interesting little self contained story. The main story plot was rubbish, of course, and entirely predictable, but these little vignettes were good. The problem was that finding these gems in a mountain of shit was far too tedious. I'm sure I must have missed some cool stuff as well but I just could not take one more minute of wandering around that dull, lifeless, boring game world to find it.
A friend told me that Blow said it was possibly the hardest puzzle in the game. It basically requires digital signal processing. I think only clairvoyant people were going to get that one on their own.
I thought the beta was pretty good fun. Played it with friends, which obviously helps a lot. I'm a sucker for the loot hunting style of game so this kind of lines up with my tastes. It helps that the game looks amazing as well. My only concern is with the amount of content the game is going to have and how long it'll last. I picked up the season pass version of the game and apparently it includes new content for the rest of the year but we'll see how that goes. Not usually a fan of pre-ordering season passes but in this particular case the difference in price was only a few dollars so I just went with it.

Okay, okay I think I found SteamGAF's favorite band. And you know this to be true.
This even is on topic with Sonicomi hitting steam soon. Well done.

Yeah, apparently. Destructoid even has an article up about it. Don't read this if you haven't played the Witness as it can spoil stuff.

The Director's Cut is pretty much better in every way. What were people saying were the pros of the OG version?

At least they didn't put in less achievements like Larian with Divinity.

At Case 3 in Dead Rising 2, so about a third of the campaign. Level 10. I got two more inventory slots and slightly more faster but still not a fan weapons breaking fast.
At least I managed to bring the FOV to a more useful setting.

I wonder if I would like DR3 more. If there was a demo that'd be great.

Hey all help me out. New to steam just bought a pc and want some games to compliment ps4...
My favorite pc games ( long ago) were those such as Wing commander, Mechwarrior, command and conquer, civilization..
Any good ones from past 5 years or so? Not really looking at AAA console games as I share accounts for those
Also my gf is into Sims and she plays those pay to play f2p build a village and defend it types all the time.... So just wondering if there's full games for her on steam as well?
Thanks!

Normally I don't like side with anime in these situations (because it's for jerks) but:
It's an anime band created by the collaboration of Leiji Matsomodo (you know, the guy who basically invented the anime space opera. Yamato and Captain Harlock) and Daft Punk.
So no, your fake video game band that plays other people's music while you push buttons on a plastic guitar is not better than a fake anime band created by a real, awesome guy and a couple of awesome pretend robots from France.
Not this time. Anime wins this time. It hurts, but it's true.
DR3 is a semi-open world game. It still have the combo weapon mechanics and the stats upgrades. You get points to spend at level up. You can also do combo vehicles since it takes place in a city. It's fun with a coop partner but they've removed the tension from Dead Rising. The time limits are really generous and they added a bunch of collect-a-ton. You have safehouses everywhere around the map and once you craft/find a weapon you have an infinite supply of them in your supply locker at any safehouse. The only restriction is that your locker has a cooldown. Once you pick enough weapons from it to drain the supply bar it needs to cooldown so you can pick more stuff from it.
Bought it early on when it was released and played with a friend from start to finish. In coop enemies don't even scale I believe so it's even easier. Had a great time but as a Dead Rising game it's not so good.

Fantastic choice. I wish there were more longform music videos like Interstella 5555, but I guess that's part of what makes the whole thing special. It's got Matsumoto's touches all over it, but the spirit of Discovery comes through very strongly. I can't listen to the album without seeing the film in my head.

SUPERHOT is indeed really short.

I couldn't get into it but I really want to, I still have it installed so I could get back to it when I'm actually in the mood for it.
I think I just didn't like the whole picking up items and crafting aspect and you start without much inventory space, and you also start with not much combat moves, then there're all those escorting
Definitely one of my favourite collaborations of all time. Every time I think about one I want to see or hear the other.
