A friend of mine played a review copy the other day. His profile says 1.3 hours played.
Now I feel a serious urge to put together an RPG Maker game where you play as a dinosaur heroically trying to prevent a giant meteor from striking the earth and killing your species, only to fail nobly but tragically, vowing with his dying breath that the dinosaurs will one day rise again. I want to do this just so that you can say there's a game out there that you find emotionally moving.

I own them via PS Plus already :V
People thought To the Moon was sad? ... I found it to be pretty uplifting.

Oh damn it >_<
Can anyone give any thoughts on this build just so I'm sure? I'm planning to buy the parts for it next week so I want to make sure everything is all good. I posted in the PC thread as well but I'd like Steamgaf's help too.

PS: there are 2 monitors on there, not sure if G-Sync is worth the extra cost.

Already mentioned I'm certain but apparently GMG Valkyria keys are being sent out.
Got mine at least.

Yep. I appreciated what it was going for but I felt the RPG Maker just did not help it with it's message.
This write up already brings a tear to my eye.
Freedom = $1.05

yeah, but you only own half of the frames in Vanquish. I'll gladly pay stupid money to get at least 30 more frames per second for that game. I can't even imagine how insane that game would look at 60 fps.
LEGO Batman 3 is the only thing I could find.

Sadly not, it's just generic monitor stuff.
I did, but can only find the standard replacement for my model, which is 1600 x 900, where as I had it upgraded by Sony to a 1920 x 1080 panel. I've emailed them but I won't hear anything back until monday at the very earliest, and it will surely cost me far more to send it in, than to replace the panel myself.
You're not the only one. I'd rather throw my money at the Japanese hopefuls than iteration after iteration.

Good enough for me.
It will be a good game to play until Valkyria Chronicles release, and VC will probably last until the 18th, where GTA V will take the spot on my gaming time.

Sure looks nice.
My impressions is more the opposite, that not a lot of people in here are excited. VC hype is definitely bigger.

So what the hell was that all about then.
Ubi gauging their customers whether they can still sell primarily on uPlay instead of Steam?

if I ignore the ugly case
What it looked like from the beginning, a simple mistake.

Considering everyone hates uplay the most out of the 3 big ones, they should have known better.

Yeah, I did, just wanted more opinions
And tbh as long as the case fits everything I don't care, I'm spending enough money and nice cases are expensive =/
A mid tower case like that should fit everything yeah?
A mistake that everyone blew out of proportions because it happened to Ubi lol

But it's not standard ugly. It's 'oh shit, let's give it up for adoption' ugly. Imo of course.
Also imo EVGA isn't the best choice for the graphics card, MSI, Asus and Gigabyte are better, more silent, better oc-potential etc.

Got it, and found one on ebay. Thank you very much for your help.

No problem, glad to help.
man DA:Origins writting and voice acting is so good. I love this game. And I love Alistair and Morrigan (), just need Shale for my uber partyeven if shes a evil bitch in the end
"In the end"? Dude, I think they spent the entire game telegraphing that. Not that it made me love her her any less, mind. >.>
Still, even with the Ubi games back on Steam, fucking expensive. Unity is 60 on Steam, 45 at Finnish retail, 41 at nuuvem. Nuuvem is tempting, but I'd really really want my games to be in my Steam library all proper like.
Bah.
Bah.
Doggie posted a good pic of some monkeys with computers earlier, that's probably accurate.

Don't know. Most cases fit every GFX card. It's best to read reviews of the case that will tell you of the length of GFX cards in it. I prefer Fractal Design cases as they are unobtrusive in design and they almost always have a drive cage that can be removed to fit all GFX card types.
Please someone, take this lol

I think they fixed that with some update later on, so that their cards are also semi passive.

Why isnt the free game the redux?
I don't think she was evil though. I think she was more chaotic neutral to use the old D&D alignment system. We don't really even know what she had planned with the baby. Which is kind of what pissed me off about the fact it was totally ditched, and isn't even canon.

Or the whole Redux collection? Also cookies. I want them.
EVGA are fine you rotters. Well most of the time unless they do something silly like this.
That was their ACX 1.0 coolers on their 970's. Basically only two of the 3 copper heat pipes have direct contact with the die hence the lower thermal performance and higher fan noise. As always with any piece of PC tech research, research ,research and never take just one person or sites recommendation as gospel.

Overrated with a rabid, bordering on insane fanbase. They're the 3DS of card vendors.

Ok then =/
Any recommendations for a nice good case, hopefully less than £100?
Well at least when I send them a GPU for RMA they don't lose it like ASUS did with me. That was a painful 7 months that has made me very weary of buying anything ASUS ever again so I don't have to endure that nightmare.
Edit: Hahaha I caught this before you edit. Now the Sony peeps will be after blood!
You can ask 10 people what their preferred vendor is and you could get back 10 recommendations along with 10 horror stories of who to avoid. You just got to go with what you know and with your own experiences. Gigabyte for exampe here may have some awful hardware issues (still not fixed their loopy fully populated dimm slots issue on their motherboards) but have an awesome RMA service where will send you a postage paid label and have a quick turn around. Then again I did send the same mobo back to them 3 times in 6 months

I love EVGA.
And Asus, but mostly EVGA.
Also, 434 MB update for San Andreas just appeared on Steam. Downloading right now.
