Man I'm getting old. Out of 8 secrets in Dooms second level I found only 1. And the saddest thing is, I looked and tried real hard...
 
I was pretty adamant on not grabbing DOOM until I upgraded my PC, but damn, all these cool references plus the very positive word of mouth it's receiving is making it way tougher than I thought.

I think their mistake was only having the MP portion as the Alpha & Beta tests...the Campaign portion seems to be getting the positive word of mouth (just from my skimming)

maybe they should have had at least a small part of the Campaign to test...could have made a difference in the negativity before release...that said I'll have to wait until it's on sale to pick it up (and maybe by then I'll have upgraded my graphics card too)

im tapped for the Dishonored 2 OT so im taking bets on wether i'll be banned in November

Step 1: Make a thread about how having to choose between a male and female helps to serve the overarching narrative as an allegory for how the so-called "United" States are right to be not-so-united on the front of transgender rights.

Step 2: Be banned because that's unequivocally stupid.

Step 3: Success.
 
I got an open box Geforce 970 for a great price.

For the first time, I can play everything on Steam I own. Everything. And it can max damn well near everything.

My life has changed forever.

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.
Would make sense

Especially since they just added timed gifting features to the store. Will be interesting to see how that pans out, since they've been talking about "trading money using Steam" for yonks...

They'll definitely be region locked of course, and probably trade restricted too I would guess.

Hey, Rocket League people, I have two questions:

1) Is it decent as a single player game? As in, does it have seasons, stats, and some sense of progression? Or is it just single matches against bots.

2) If I play the multiplayer do I have to interact with the other players in any sort of chat/voice format or can I play with all that stuff turned off and still have it be playable?

why would they be pissed at doto

also tf2 is the past, overwatch is the future

cheers love

Because it started as a WarCraft 3 mod. And in an early state, a StarCraft mod.

And their own version is a little half-baked and has failed to capture the same success. Or that of (puke) LoL (puke, puke.)

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.

Couldn't hate against just about every videogame company be called petty?

Like, which one has the corporate policy of running over your dog?

EA killed my dog. Andrew Wilson himself did it.

Tracer's design is awesome, like most of the cast. It's her accent that makes me curl up in a corner and cry.

i may or may not have called in sick to work today to watch competitive league

That Knife Execution is too good. Played the game with the mercenary costume and hunted them down predator style

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlLe3-kn8PU

How does a skinny barely 100 pound girl overpower and drag to the ground a buff mercenary twice her mass weighed down with extra ammo and weapons on a chest carrier no less.

Just give her superpowers at this point. They should have focused the reboot series as a stealth game. Sneak around the enemies to get to the macguffins, dont tackle them like a linebacker.

Blizzard vs Valve is a weird debate. At least back in the 90's, Epic vs id made more sense.

The funny thing is, we know from leaked plans that Blizzard intended to make battle.net into something like Steam, Valve just beat them to it. Honestly I think it would have been interesting to see that play out because if there's one thing Blizzard does orders of magnitude better than Valve, it's customer support. They would have actually already had the infrastructure in place to support a store like Steam whereas somehow after all these years Valve still doesn't.

Oh, yeeey. Won a game that is no longer on Steam. Should've done some research before sending the PM haha.

I'm keeping it. Hope the developer manages a deal with Valve and republishes or something.
