i don't get the impression it sold very well

50k-ish basically at full price seems decent enough. You'd think they'd at least have a good sale on Steam first. I know I would have bought it at 75% off.

I am sure if World of Goo would be released now, it wouldnt actually sell that well. World of Goo came out during a time when indie-titles on Steam were almost non-existant compared to today.

I dunno, World of Goo is still a classic. Plus it was in the very first Humble Bundle. I actually played and beat it before I ever got a Steam key from that bundle.

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.
Speaking of which... Do you think you could add a "add to my wishlist" button in friend's wishlists ? I mean without the need to visit each store pages :p

That's not a bad idea, let me take a look.

So, will it list the date rather than spring/winter etc?

This will only list what's available for the app in the API. So unfortunately it will simply say whatever the developer put into that field. For example see my Shiness screenshot. "Spring 2016" is what it says because that's what the API says. Unfortunately, nothing is structured and the data here isn't validated.

That's an awesome Humble Bundle, although I feel a bit sad that A Boy and His Blob just came out a few months ago and it's already in the $1 tier :(

I don't know how to feel about Konami doing something I consider to be a good decision. It's been a while.

That's not a confirmation by the way that's just a fan group trying to push for steam releases from what I gathered. I just found it interesting that Konami was retweeting it ...

Ah, so I can go back to expecting nothing from them.

Back to Dark Souls, where I attempt to pose dead enemies into amusing poses thanks to ragdoll physics.

50,000 copies for Disgaea doesn't sound bad at all for such an old game. I hope NIS keeps'em comin'

It hasn't gone on sale yet, right? If so, that's pretty decent for such a niche game. Really hope they get around to bringing the sequels sooner rather than later. I never actually played Disgaea 2 so I'm looking forward to finally doing that.
 
Yea, I am no longer blocked on gleam, thus:

Take this with a grain of salt:

http://semiaccurate.com/2016/05/03/thing-go-bumpgate-in-the-night-for-nvidias-gp100-pascal-gpu/

Naturally this follows what was said previously from Charlie but with a bit more of a problem that just "fixing bugs"

Considering AMD is the only vendor with working 14nm silicon at trade shows, doesn't look that good for nVidia.

Considering what previous 'bumpgate' meant for NVIDIA...
I guess I might as well be sticking with GTX970...

For you.

Well deserved. Kudos to NIS for the kickass support they demonstrated on their first PC port. They would constantly search for user feedback and report progress on bug fixing like everyday in the first week of release. I was left with a very good impression of them. Just a shame that they launched with a issue that was caused entirely by the Steam clientes that left a bad taste in people's mouth in the first couple of days.
