If Gaf (and the internet I suppose...) had been around during the NES vs SMS days I'd probably be right in there fighting the good fight.
Let them have their fun.

100% chances that its already being ported to Steamworks. I dont know how this is still a qustion
Any good? Yes, I'd say so
Velocity was a better mini.
But this game was one of the higher rated minis I've come across. I played a level or two, but it didn't really grab me.
Corrosivefrost: "Where is my Heart?"
I don't even know if there actually is a video card installed in my rig, let alone modifying something something something like you said.
On an unrelated note.
I kinda need a city-builder-random-civ-like fix (after the too easy 1849 experience), and while I'm waiting for a discount on Anno 1404 (apparently the only store selling it for Steam is Steam itself so I guess I'll have to wait at least for the summer sale), suddenly Age of Wonders came up.
Now, I don't know anything about it, but reading descriptions it seems a hybrid between rpg, turn based strategy and a civ-like. In this case, how balanced is between the three?

That's awesome. I bought it. I had $2 from cards in my Steam wallet so I can't resist.
Are we expecting it to be released before July 1st though? I would think they would have announced it by now.

I'm glad you're enjoying it. It's really cool.
May end up being the best game/deal of the entire Humble Daily Bundle/Fiasco.

I asked my brother to get me one. I just redeem the voucher there and I get the 3 games right?
Doesn't work.
I have no idea.
I were told the SCP-DS stuff I had were the same as DSTool but they have different interfaces. =/
Also, Windows 7 says, that my Bluetooth dongle's driver is up to date.

Bit of a hidden deal, Battle Worlds Kronos got a base price drop and a 20% discount to $16. I'm a huge Battle Isle fan (I used to wait hours for the AI to finish its turn back in the day), so that was the tipping point for me to jump in.
Apparently it is a bit brutal, but that is exactly what I'm looking for.
looks alot like Red Alert 3
All signs point to the closing date being postponed, and even then I think the game will still be playable (no online though). But with Street Fighter getting a steamworks port and Ace Combat too, I don't see how Dark Souls which is one of their best selling titles wouldn't get a port too. Neither port of those previously mentioned titles really got any type of announcement either.

Old news - it's been around for a while.

It's heavily skewed towards the RPG & combat aspects, rather than city/civilization management. However, the devs have said they are planning to beef up that aspect at some point as well as introduce more varied victory conditions.
(Edit: was talking about Age of Wonders III here - can't comment on the earlier games)

Not what I was asking, but thanks.
Is it a legit storefront for new keys or a reseller?
Legit. Their first bundle was the best one though, I don't they they will ever top it.
Got Metro Redux Bundle, reached 1300 games on Steam. Good games to be the 1300th and 1301st on my account

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Yeah, depending on which one he got. Bronze gets you 1 game (from a more limited list), Silver gets you 2 games, gold gets you 3.
You have to register with AMD then enter the code from the voucher. Then you select which game(s) you want and they give you Steam keys.

You said you found a new bundle site, and asked if it was legit. I tacitly implied that, since it was around for a while, it's been discussed and assumed to be so.

DS4Tool is an offshoot of the Scarlet Crush project -- and there's now an offshoot of the DS4 tool since inHextster or whatever his name was stopped updating DS4Tool.
This is the all-in-one thread for scarlet crush original version that works with DS3 and DS4:
http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-XInput-Wrapper-for-DS3-and-Play-com-USB-Dual-DS2-Controller
There's some instructions about how to get your new SCP service to pair with your DS4 in the OP... however, if you don't have your bluetooth driver installed properly, it's not going to work like that anyway.
However, I suggest you check out that thread and it's instructions to get an idea of what you might need to do.
That's the very first thread I followed and were I downloaded everything to begin with, yet that didn't help out. I don't understand the list* of supported bluetooth dongles either, and how I can find out if mine is supported.

USB\VID_03F0&PID_231D
USB\VID_045E&PID_3500

You run the setup -- and if your bluetooth driver isn't replaced as part of the setup process, then you follow the "my dongle didn't get updated post" found here:
http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-XInp...-USB-Dual-DS2-Controller?pid=334141#pid334141
In their example pic, you can see that it mentions replacing the USB\VIDxxx whatever and then "Bluetooth Driver" is listed as things that were installed.
My guess is, if you've tried a bunch of setups for these various tools, that they're now installed and conflicting with one another. I would try to clean them out and start from scratch if it were me. I would then follow the post I link above to ensure my BT adapter got the driver replaced. I would then run the SCP setup and then follow the instructions linked or given in the OP for connecting the controller of my choice.
Any good? Yes, I'd say so
Wow. You know how to sell a game, or at least inform me. Now to figure out how to increase my humble bundle donation to grab it..
this game sounds right up my alley
man i can't keep up with all these games
DARK SOULSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Thank you.
I was talking about AOW and AOW Shadow Magic (basically the two in the 1$ tier of the bundle), but oh well, I have 1 week to decide, and even if right now I'm not in the mood for some heavy strategy, who knows.
Killer is dead quick look completely turned me off the game, looks boring as shit and the usual anime weirdness seems lame this time. Definitely a pass for me until a sale

I've somehow purchased 350 games this year so far. I've spent a little more than what 3 full price games cost with tax. Completed 28 games during that time period, so I guess we can conclude I'm losing the backlog battle.
Microsoft obviously quietly pushed back the unofficial shutdown date to give developers and publishers more time.
Recently Namco announced two things, they were somewhat veiled in PR speak, but we know the following.
- Dark Souls, and other GFWL games will continue to work until the shutdown date
- Namco is currently pursuing 'other options.' Which translates to Steamworks.
I was thinking the same thing yesterday, then I had an epiphany.
I just came to an interesting realization.
We spent the past 5 years on GAF getting told that frame rate is irrelevant and you can't see the difference between 600p and 1080p from your couch.
Now we have hundred page threads arguing 900p vs 1080p...
The hypocrisy is truly laughable
Yes, I kinda stopped looking through recent releases until today.
but you're winning the collector's war

So who is going to beat Steam's Dark Souls weekend deal price? Too bad Amazon isn't including it in their sale. At least 75% off would be appropriate.
That score is identical to the Tropico 4 score, if I'm not mistaken, and Tropico 4 is one of my most played games of all time: there's some sort of weird RTS/City Builder tax where they're never really allowed to have more than 8/10 for some reason. Nobody ever really explains why. I mean, that Eurogamer review? Literally all they have are problems with building (I'm not a big TB fan, but he indicated building was greatly improved) and army self-preservation--and everything else is greatly improved over the previous game, apparently... yet it gets another 7/10. So: "it's got a couple faults the last game had, but it's way better in a lot of ways. Here's the same score."
It's like the series is capped at 7/10.

Wasn't it CBOAT who said that the resolution difference is really important to Sony? And we know Sony's hired astroturfers in a big way this whole campaign (eg all those 'lol microsoft so weak' image macros last year). So it wouldn't surprise me if a big part of the resolution wars are simply a marketing attempt on Sony's part.
I liked Omerta, and it seems tremendously improved now than when I originally played it.

Well I only want Murdered, but if I luck out and can also get Banner Saga as well, those 2 games for $25 (or less since the bidding price is currently $21) would be a freakin' bargain.

It's not even necessarily hypocrisy if it's the same people; if someone believes something, and then later comes to realize their belief was false and now believes something else, that's not hypocrisy, that's progress.
It also wouldn't be hypocrisy if someone thought 1080p was MUST HAVE but 1440p was irrelevant; that'd just be a diminishing returns argument.
I would say that I have definitely observed individuals who seem to be very myopic with regards to their understanding of things; constantly dismissive of others positions and priorities, but updates their own position as soon as their own conditions change, and doesn't seem to be accountable for their own past positions or able to easily understand why they used to think something or why they changed their mind.

With the amount of games being released daily it's hard to keep track of what is being released on Steam.

I don't know what I was expecting, but it certainly wasn't this.
I like whenever someone says something like this because it makes my -67 games bought to finished ratio seem way healthier in terms of backlogs.

Very true.

Such is the rules of the game! But I also think there are just as many PC people playing it.
FF8 is a bit love/hate, but I think love is still more likely. Compared to X or 7? Can of worms time there, all three are excellent in their own way.
The port is fine, just expect some low res textures and cutscenes so certainly a must play/try at some stage.
