Steam was up long enough to let me but Dark Souls II, but it couldn't download or launch any games.

I closed out of it and reopened by right clicking "Run as administrator" and it seems to be working fine now. :)

3 Random Things that are all important to Steam!

Vanguard Princess is having a crowd-funding campaign to add free online multiplayer DLC added to the game.

Claire, the 2D survival-horror game that takes a lot of inspiration from Rule of Rose, Silent Hill, and Alan Wake, comes to Steam this month now confirmed.

And does anyone want impressions of Into The Dark, the original?
 
Gun & TimeShift are the two games I'm looking to buy right now. Shame I can't run Singularity, but I'll have fun with the other two.

I'm still mad about the Star Wars franchise pack not going on sale ever since Disney bought (and closed) LucasArts. Sadly I missed buying it last time it went on sale, when it was $50 with a 50% discount. I mean, now that Disney owns them there's absolutely no way they'll ever...

That's it. I don't care if I bought Child of Light yesterday and so I won't get to play any of these games anytime soon. I'm buying this fucker right here, right now. Thank you Disney.

$3 for Kotor. Do the graphics hold up?

Well, I guess I'm overpaying for Risk of Rain. I really do want it and, fuck it, charity and all.

It is pretty weird that they have a $9.99 game as the $10 tier though... Actually, that's very fucking weird.

Huh. I wonder exactly how many trading cards and backgrounds you get for that $20 tier. If you get all of it, especially foils, you would actually end up going positive!

I think the base game still looks excellent at high-resolutions. The textures and geometry from that particular generation will always hold up in some respect.

There are plenty of visual mods available, however. I installed quite a few when I last played KOTOR.

I didn't take many screenshots during that play through, but here are a couple

I kind of like it. What's wrong with it?

I really dislike chromatic aberration. It doesn't seem as agressive in here overall (maybe due to the neon green distracting me...) like in Daylight, but you can see it on the edges. I consider this filter ugly and I'm not the only one. But devs have the hots for it.

That's cute. A 66% off Star Wars sale to celebrate the execution of Order 66. I wonder which Sith authorized this discount?

Eve Valkyrie, the Oculus Rift game in development by Eve Online developer CCP, will now make use of Unreal Engine 4.

CCP is demonstrating that version on the new Oculus Rift DK2 headset at Eve FanFest in Reykjavik this week. Bertie is there and tried the new Valkyrie build, which was finished moments before the show. Apparently it's a significant improvement over the GDC build which can be played on Sony's Project Morpheus headset, also at FanFest. Bertie hasn't tried both, though, so couldn't comment. But he will.

CCP also announced Battlestar Galactica's Katee Sackhoff (Starbuck) as the voice in your ears in Valkyrie. Specifically she'll voice Rán Kavik, who's at the heart of the game.

Yeah, some clarification would be nice. If you do indeed receive one of everything then you'd definitely make a profit.

MRORANGE pointed it out a while back and I find it quite funny but all the things photographers and cinematographers try as best as they can to avoid these knock on effects in their work like CA, motion blur, knock out contrast, lens flares etc game developers are clamouring to put into their design.

The Moto X has some pretty solid specs for what it is trying to do. I can respect that.

I'm personally waiting for 1440p phones to drop before I upgrade.
