So it will most likely be a competent game with that ex-Starbreeze devs pedigree and also will have an awesome soundtrack? I'd consider getting it if there was multiplayer or mod support confirmed, it's a bit too expensive for single player only for me.

Yes, very old.
But thanks, because this way people who are interested and may have missed earlier SteamGAF conversation about it can be aware (seriously).
Also, there's a new Bundlestars today too, but it seems like a bunch of bundled re-runs to me. I was too lazy to check vs. my Steam library to find out though.

Happy birthday JaseC, I didn't know people aged over yonder

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
Congratulations JaseC! Best of wishes.
In other news: Dark Souls II is taking over my most played list rather quickly...
boss was pretty scary. Great fight.
Tried out Fistful of Frags and, well... eh.
For free, you might enjoy some chaotic western-style shooting. Worth trying out for the Terence Hill reference alone, but... eh. I rarely like MP shooters, and this is no exception. Guns feel bad and the maps and respawn locations are kinda off.
Anyway, ten cents "earned". Mwuahaha.

I actually applaud them for going single player only if that is the key part of the game. The trouble with this though is that the game is heavily narrative driven and part of their choice of game demonstrations has come from the early segments of the game to not spoil what's ahead, so it's hard to gauge how interesting and how much re-playability will be there. Mod support would obviously be amazing but nothing has been said yet. But so far, it's looking to be at least an extremely atmospheric story driven FPS which is somewhat rare these days. I'm sure you can expect regular sales though as with Deus Ex Human Revolution

When it comes to Dynasty Warriors, Jim Sterling is (aside from myself) the only reviewer I trust.
They age backwards, like Benjamin Buttons.

I'll never understand how dopey some of these devs can be. Do they really think people will be motivated to double-dip and re-buy the Steam version after 1. buying the game already, and 2. having a bad experience with the dev denying them a reasonable request?

or Deep Silver 2,0 (I am hoping for another indie, back to the roots)

The Binding of Isaac is 99 cents. Worth it?

As someone who has been asleep for the hype of this, what can I expect?

You can expect the GOAT indie game

What makes it the GOAT? I literally know almost nothing about the game, other than the hype and its reputation because of said hype.

Nope, that's Spelunky.
It is great that we have a more of a straight up action franchise getting a singleplayer only release from a developer that has created many great singleplayer first-person games. It probably doesn't fit The New Order, but I'd love to see a Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory HD remake with multiplayer. If it weren't for Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, no one would probably associate the franchise with multiplayer at all. There's the RAGE Tool Kit on Steam, so adding in mod support is a possibility as I think The New Order also uses same version of idtech. I'll definitely get the game once it goes on sale for about 50% off, my finances are spread a bit thin with the upcoming GRID: Autosport and having just bought Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends.

its like a 2d zelda dungeon where you collect power ups but when you die you start again.

I saw on CAG that both Empress of the Deep games are $0.50 cents and both have play for the first time Playfire rewards. They were just added to Steam last week and 90% off.

Mod support might be finicky due to idTech 5. The mod kit for RAGE was released last year I think, but sounded like a pain to use. Does RAGE have even a healthy mod community?
Thanks, I picked this up with leftover card money (first time I ever said that). Time to see if playfire is working for me. How long does it take to get the reward?

I'm playingYou have to win the game and really enjoying the game, already finished it one time so I'm in the NG+ near the end with 98 or 99% of completion. I suck so much at this game that I don't see myself unlocking the Yolo and the cat achievements.
Happy birthday JaseC.
I'm now closer to 30 than 20.

I checked Mod DB, there are two mods listed for RAGE so it doesn't look too good

Dark Souls log.
I marched further into Anor Londo. Went upstairs to the main building and had to fight another giants. Found a dead end and moved right side to find a bunch of albino demons. I killed them, and moved on a very narrow ledge until I found a small tower and killed a couple more of albino demos. I was hit by a spear then, who fired this? I looked everywhere and saw this couple of archers that fire the goddamn biggest arrows ever. I found a small safe place. They aren't going to run out of arrows right? I tried my luck and ran forward, then right to face the archer then... bam! a giant arrow on my back, then another from the front and dropped to my death.
Made my way back to the same place, ran upwards, then left to kill the other archer, it drew a sword and pushed me out of the ledge. Damn.
Came back again, I need to be faster. I need to be stronger. I was sent to my doom again.
These archers are cheap.
But... me? I persevere >

While it may look a bit like Zelda, think of it as more of a randomly-generated twin-stick shooter. You move around from room to room, killing things and grabbing items to power yourself up. The items are where the game gets really interesting, as they're not only random on each run, but the effects can often combine. Say on the first floor you grab an item that lets you shoot through the rocks scattered around the rooms. Then, a couple floors later, you grab an item that turns your shots into homing shots. Now you have homing shots that can go through walls. Then you pick up an item that drastically increases the fire rate, and so on. Not all the items are that useful, and some you may want to completely avoid, so a lot of the initial experience is just getting a feel for what everything does. You're also regularly unlocking new items that can apppear, so the game stays very fresh for a very long time.
I've got over 150 hours clocked in the game, and I still go back to it every so often.

If you spend enough time searching for the last 1 or 2 moneybags, you'll have plenty of experience under your belt for cat mode. That's what happened to me, I was an expert by the time I tracked down those devilishly hidden bags.
I see senility already set in
Happy birthday, JaseC!

Cheers! (I think I got everybody.)
It's a bummer that 99% of the stuff SF has put up over the past month or so isn't on sale.
The "or whatever" being another DLC sale.
Happy B'day mucker. What did you get? I hope your friends and family don't just buy you Steam Credit
Too early to tell, haha.
happy birthday JaseC. tell me that ironically, you did NOT buy a steam game today
I didn't buy a Steam game. I bought five!
Haha, I occasionally update wishlist to keep track of card-supporting games I don't yet have so you can have a poke around if you want.
