Support NeoGAF

[jshackles]

Any thoughts on having a Steam Client Green/Light soon?

Given Valve's apparent love for crowdsourcing, I'm surprised there isn't already a "Steam Workshop" for the client/website itself. It would be a great way to showcase (and keep up to date) things like client skins, as well as more complicated mods like Enhanced Steam (or perhaps, just individual "workshop" files with Enhanced Steam's features all split out separately).

Great for Valve, great for Steam, great for the consumer. Win win situation.

Hmm, Audiosurf 2 is still too expensive =/

I mean it's still early access, the first game is much cheaper and they're functionally so similar.

I'd totally buy it if they put in Spotify support though but I doubt that.

 

[Yakkue]

Can anyone confirm if FFIII is fullscreen without the black borders(that VII and VIII have)native 1080p?

Sorry to dissappoint you:

But you don't need a SquareEnix account to play.

768p is the highest resolution? Looks like you can you scroll down on the video options.

 

[Leon Belmont]

Bad advice.What all true Steam collectors must do is pick up the Complete Pack

Does it include the Painkiller Hell and Damnation Collector's Edition or the Standard Edition?

I caved. Ended up not owning Combat Wings and Tropico Trilogy even though I thought I did. Unexpected win.

Thank you.

Ok, so Gamefly just gave me a call to verify my paypal infos. I didn't really speak English for 15 years. That must not have been pretty for the poor guy at the other end of the phone.
Still, has nice as the man was, 3 hours to verify a digital order, and as commendable as the thing might be, is a little long for my tastes.

Well at least there's that

 

[jshackles]

Playfire rewards for Final Fantasy III. Nice thought, but the "play for the first time" reward is the only one you're likely to get in the next 6 days, unless you play it for 10 hours a day for the next week.

Hopefully they'll have game for sale on GMG (that works with the 20% coupon) before I get home from work tonight.

Yep, sorry.

 

[PetriP-TNT]

Woohoo, new Wolf Among Us episode. Sweet.

Also played as Sun Bro for the first time in DkS2, still funny as hell.

 

[Grief.exe]

Yep, sorry.

What is your native resolution?

@Rhaknar Let's just say they've done well enough for us to continue bringing games to steam.

when I asked if their games have been doing good on steam

 

[Rezae]

Thanks nexen for Zeno Clash!

 

[VikasNarula]

quote from watch dogs OT

does anyone know the problem ?

i rather suggest to buy from GMG using 25% off voucher

 

[Grief.exe]

I didn't realize there would be a delay between the Ultra Street Fighter IV console release and PC release.

The upgrade situation necessitating GFWL copies activating on Steam is probably causing some extra headaches for them.

 

[Ruruja]

so what happens in 17mins on humblebundle? A new 2-week bundle or nothing at all?

 

[Rhaknar]

does anyone want Dead Island Epidemic if only for the +1?

 

[Arthea]

I just bought FF3 on steam and then remembered that I could have used gmg credit on it and discount. (><)
OTOH my plan still stands: to wait for discount on South Park and use my credit, make it worth for me (probability being very high that I won't like it).

 

[YianGaruga]

does anyone want Dead Island Epidemic if only for the +1?

For some reason I missed all the chances to get this, so I'd take it.

 

[Stumpokapow]

so what happens in 17mins on humblebundle? A new 2-week bundle or nothing at all?

Watch_Dogs Dedsec edition for $129.99, the charity of choice is Yves Guillemot's kids private school tuition, BTA of $199.99 to get a free uplay avatar code for a shirt that says uplay in poorly rendered text.

I totally can see it happening, at the rate things are evolving on HB (><)

new 2-week Humble Fumble

Pretty sure that the +1 will be temporary as the game is going to be F2P eventually

 

[Tizoc]

Thank you jshackles for the AMD tip!
Got a code for $27 and got Murdered and Banner Saga!

Is Dirt 3 good? I think I have Dirt 2, if DiRT 2 is better, I'll just give it away :V

You're welcome!

To everyone else: If you're planning on picking Murdered: Soul Suspect at launch, there is no reason at all you shouldn't just buy an AMD code.

 

[Li Kao]

A big thank you to Dice for Inquisitor. Always have been curious to see if the game is a good RPG.

 

[ezodagrom]

What is your native resolution?

Mine goes up to 1440x900, which is my native resolution.
Though the game itself runs at a 5:3 resolution with borders for anything else (1280x768, personally using a 1000x600 custom resolution in window mode).

that requires more effort than going on GMG and clicking BUY

 

[BiggNife]

I know Bundle Stars deals are usually garbage but this is actually a pretty good deal - Tropico 1/2/3, Hard Reset, and Zeno Clash 2 for just 2 bucks.

[Euphor!a]

Could I convince someone to buy me Sleeping Dogs on Amazon for $6 and I'll buy you something similarly priced on Steam or anything via PayPal I guess?

I bought it from the Middle East store a few days ago and it is fine on my end.

That's what people were saying in the Steam forums, though I couldn't find any actual proof to link here.

Should go near your monitor's native resolution, but will be in 5:3 with bars.

Could possibly set up a custom resolution through drivers that could skirt this issue or downsample the game.

 

[Cth]

Did anyone just want these?

Thanks for Zeno Clash II!

Gonna give it a try while Watch Dogs loads later tonight

 

[Tizoc]

GMG don't seem to have FF3, maybe they'll get it in the near future?

bundlestars deals are FAR from garbage. they have a lot of garbage bundles, but they make it up for some great ones like the gray matter one for example. and they always have multiple bundles at the same time so its not like youre stuck with the garbage one

The Forest and the Stomping Grounds both on the 30th? I know very little beyond the store pages for these two games, but which one is going to be more impressive/should I get? Leaning towards The Forest though. I'm talking beyond content, I know what they are about, impressions are gonna be interesting.

 

[Arthea]

you know that Sleeping Doggies go on sale on steam regularly and for about the same price, don't you? Just checking.

Whats this tip?

Edit: Thanks dice for Battle of Britain, wonder if it's as good as the old Lucasarts classic...

Find an AMD Gold Reward at eBay

 

[Euphor!a]

I don't doubt it, but I kinda want to play it now.

 

[jshackles]

A Silver-level reward voucher also works, if you only want 2 games. (AMD site)

 

[KainXVIII]

Also have spare Dead Island Epidemic (not anymore!) and Aerena, PM me if you want it.

 

[jaundicejuice]

The delay of Ultra on PC is kinda bullshit. Consoles can buy the digital version like two months in advance of the physical media release, which is relatively soon I believe. The PC digital release is the same day as physical release on consoles.

 

[Knurek]

Sorry to dissappoint you:

God, seriously, who releases a game with point texture filtering only on PC?
What is this, pre-3dfx, software renderer era?
