Picked up Stealth 2, Apotheon, Deadcore, and Guac Super edition today. Along with some good old Black Mirror games on GOG teehee

Icewind Dale Enhanced Edition is staring me in the face as well. Whats the cheapest the beamdog games go to?

Urgh, I am so hot for Star Wars right now. Has anyone a key for Kotor or Kotor II? I have certain Trading Cards for trade.

edit: Thanks, kiru <3

Same moderator as before. Super defense mode: On.

Moderator: This time I am stating this as a moderator, and it is an order. Do not badger the developers. They are under no obligation to respond, and given the venom disingenuously posted in the name of "concerns" that has been thrown at them in this thread, the idea that they would respond is a nonstarter.

This is entertaining :D

Wow. Despotic.

To be fair, what he says makes sense. Unlike the whole "Remember those two or three times GMG was caught selling unauthorised keys? No? Wait, G2A and GMG aren't the same thing? Well, I'm right and you're wrong!" thing. I don't see CDP bringing him into line, either, due to it giving GMG the cold shoulder -- facts matter little in the face of business politics.

For you.
All the complaining here in the last days about Bloodborne co-op being broken and it has been working perfectly for me so far ¯\_(&#12484;)_/¯

Curses! I just finished getting over the fact that the maximum resolution of Kotor is 1280x and made my character and then the game crashed when I tried the actual game started >_<

I mean, he could've sound less arrogant and dickish if he wants.

In the interest of fairness, I can't exactly blame CDP for shepherding digital and retail sales toward GOG considering history:

Fantastic PC (and soon Xbox 360) RPG, The Witcher 2, sold 1,110,055 copies last year, developer CD Projekt Red has revealed.

...

Of those copies, 270,000 were sold via digital distribution platforms: 40,000 on GOG.com, which leaves the lion's share of the remainder presumably to Steam (numbers not disclosed).

Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if CDP exhausted most of its coffers in its desire to internally fund development, which would actually explain why it shifted the burden of marketing costs to its distribution partners. Even Valve, with all of its "Hey, this game is cheap! Let's buy it!" money, can't justify self-distribution.

Speaking of EA and Valve, though, I still think the jury is out on the two reconciling following the Portal 2 early release ARG faux pas. L4D3 is behind only Half-Life 3 as the gaming industry's worst-kept secret, though, so time will tell.

nobody cares about Suikoden, at least nobody inside Konami

I don't get it... why can't we redeem keys in browser in 21st century. We can on desura, and on gog, but not on steam, origin, uplay. Do they have alliance named an inconvenient online life or something? I can even redeem PSN codes without switching console on.

I'd say there's a fear that a web-based system would be more prone to attacks than the likes of Desura, but such concerns could be assuaged by implementing some sort of two-factor authentication. Granted, needing to confirm the redemption of a key would be a bit of pain, but at the end of the day it would be better than, say, having to wait until you returned home from work.

If the summer sale starts on the same day as last year we're only six weeks away. Just saying.

I'm almost ready, or will be soonish, bring it on!

that was rhetorical question but ya, it sucks we need to run client every to time just to redeem a damn key of a game we have no intentions playing, so there is no need for client!

on point of have no intentions playing, just other day I tried to imagine how we lived without idle master, my head almost exploded, that was nightmare not a life, and jshackles is a saint, we should make it official and sanctify him as Saint Shack.

I deactivated frame buffering after trying most option. I wish I could run that game windowed though.

Can't believe how harsh thst game aged since I last played it.

Maybe they'll partner with WB or Namco this time around :p
