I remember it going beyond the typical GFWL problems that i didn't even bother but it seems that whatever was the major cause of the problems has been attended to since then.
But now i would have to try and pick up a non-steam version of a game on PC for a stupid price because MS. Meh. I'll just stick with my XB1 BC version since i'm always looking for a reason to turn that thing on anyway
I wanted Onechanbara Kagura Double Pack
That's actually one I expected to show up on PC as it was developed under similar circumstances to Rise, Dead Rising 3, Tomb Raider.
Essentially a third party partner that owns the IP, Microsoft may have locked Sunset up for future releases.
This console generation in a nutshell.

apparently, Ubisoft tried to reach out to have the Beyond Good & Evil 2 + Nintendo NX rumor pulled down
I guess that's about as close to a confirmation that it's coming that we'll get. Lets hope for a Sonic Lost Worlds situation

I'm not seeing a niche title like BG&E doing well on Nintendo or anything besides PC tbh. Better than not being developed though.
New store page!
Wooooooo \o/
The memories are all coming back, can't wait to play it.
Finally someone can stop with his shilling =P
Not really. Big companies hate rumors for other things too. When site publishes some rumor that it is not true company that is related to that rumor can get "hurt" and page will only benefit from that. Imagine if BG&E3 is in development and it is multiplatform release or timed exclusive. This rumor can hurt their stocks when they announce game.

I'd really love to see where they are getting their data. Fans of Mother 3 have said they could use the translation for free.99, so the localization is done for them.
Make a 3DS/Wii U Amiibo bundle and done.
I'm sure there is a reason. I am very curious what that reason could be.

Last day that the MP Starter Pack is available to purchase. I've been having a lot of fun with this game. I hadn't played a CoD MP game for a few years and I've really been enjoying this one. They've nailed the MP in this game. I'd like more people to try it out as I realize the majority of people have fell off the CoD bandwagon (I know I had).

I don't think Ubisoft will be having a Nintendo collaboration any time soon after the Wii U's disappointing sales. How well did ZombiU sell? And let's not forget they pulled Rayman Legends from being a Wii U exclusive.
YES.

Then buy WotS 3, that way we'll get closer to a WotS 2 release and then WotS 1!
My plan cannot fail!
Seems much weaker than the previous Hidden Gems.
Well, it certainly seems they are working backwards on this one.

What are the similarities and differences between the STALKER series and Metro games? I loved the Metro games, but never played any of the Stalker. Apparently one of them is on sale for 5$, https://www.bundlestars.com/en/game/stalker-call-of-pripyat
Well they will know what NX is, how it works and what the unique selling points are. If those are good enough to suggest it may have a big audience, they may well be on board. I'm think this is legit, and that there are quite a few other surprises in store for NX

They aren't really that similar (the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series are open world FPS games with realistic ballistics and advanced AI, while the Metro series are story based lineal shooters)
I'd guess that their main similarity would be that both are really atmospheric, and that both are Eastern Europe developed FPS games.

But they also knew what the Wii U was when it came out, how it worked, what its USPs were, but that didn't stop them from having a bad taste in their mouth and put initially exclusive games on other systems.
Could be true of course, but all I'm saying is I doubt Ubisoft will make the same mistake twice, unless they have guarantees that will most likely come from Nintendo's end.
Grief, how about that avatar switch?
That's really well done actually.

Awesome, sounds great. Is there a consensus which one I should start with?

Omg, the trump version of your avatar is the best version so far
Some of the people that made the STALKER games went on to do the Metro games.
But yeah, aside from that Eastern European style of bleakness, they aren't that similar. STALKER is more ambitious, but a bit wonky in places. The Metro games are linear and not very wonky.
Welp. At least it will help the Canadian dollar.

I'd start with Shadow of Chernobyl. That said, Call of Pripyat is probably the most polished one.
Clear Sky has some really neat ideas but not all of them work well, so I'd say it's not a good place to start (though it's definitely worth a playthrough)

listen to the mad man
I wrote a fairly long hot take on Microsoft's position in the game industry, Microsoft's ownership of Lionhead, and Microsoft's record with F2P games in the thread on this issue.
Fable II is probably my favourite internally developed MS game.
It's a pity because over the last 10-12 years I have really really liked all the stuff that Microsoft has made or published... except Forza and Halo which I don't especially care for... I love Microsoft Studios games. It's a pity that Microsoft's other interests in the gaming space have undermined Microsoft Studios' ability to achieve their full potential.
First game of the series, Shadow of Chernobyl.

Also, Rage is entirely first-person except for when you're driving.
stalker is such a great game. i feel it's kinda clunky with how much fpses have progressed in feel and responsiveness and whatnot but it has such an enjoyable gameplay loop and its world is super engrossing
not a big fan of that kind of message sending

I made sure to put GOG and Steam directly on the Tweet to try to circumvent that.
My only hope is that Microsoft doesn't use older titles such as Viva Pinata to push their Windows Store agenda.

Very cool of you.
I had no idea that an MP standalone was even available. This would be a good way to test whether I still have interest in the series or not. I've skipped the last few titles.

What if this is a Bayo 2 situation where Ubisoft wasn't going to develop it if Nintendo hadn't stepped in though?
