so what was the consensus on Evil Within now that we are nearing a month after its launch? I remember reading that it's a letdown but i'm having a tough time thinking that Mikami botched that game.

It's good just not great.
Depends on what you're in the mood for, since after the first 2 chapters it's a action game basically.
I would say if it hits to ball park of 30 it would be worth a grab during the sale much like wolfenstein.

just in the mood for something that is kinda like RE4. I know that no game is ever really going to be RE4, but games close to it that are still fun are great (like Shadows of the Damned or RE5).
I guess i can wait till it's near $10, i don't foresee it being full priced for too much longer.

Damn ACU is one beautiful game from artistic standpoint. Lightning is simply phenomenal and art direction is top notch. Also cut scenes are really acted and produced on the really high level. Lipsync is amazing in cutscenes too. Too bad that small draw distance, pop in and problematic FPS are breaking immersion and causing problems

Thanks a lot Jase ! I was really curious about the game, sounds like Myst or something I might enjoy.
I hope it's not Insurgency >.<

KojiPro knows that we want dat HD collection:
Give me metal gear, give me ZOE HD so that i can have a good version of ZOE1 HD since the PS3 version is underwhelming. There is a stupid amount of money to be made getting those games on Steam. ZOE would pay for itself in animu cards.

Don't stare at my avatar, but TEW is a legit excellent game. The initial bad impressions thankfully don't reflect the final game.
Gameplay feels tense and has satisfying gunplay (and some of the best sound effects for guns and overall ambient sound I've heard in years). Mostly well paced with varied locations. The gore in this game is also pretty awesome and even adds to the gameplay (when you only shoot off half of an enemie's head and the target area becomes smaller).
It plays less like the action-y RE4 but more like a survival game. Ammo can be really sparse in this game and scavenging/managing resources smartly is key.
What I absolutely love in this game is the stellar art direction
(Older shot still with black bars.)
Just an example but the game has incredibly stunning set pieces to offer. And the lighting system in this game is also a real looker. Every light in this game is throwing shadows, it looks mindboggingly good.
It's definitely a well polished game worthy of Mikami's name. My personal GOTY.
Couple extras

Why did I go look at Pillars of Eternity's site?
I've now found out there's a live stream tonight at 9pm GMT
http://www.twitch.tv/paradoxinteractive
That extra copies as part of pledges come with the preorder goodies
That this book might be additional to all the masses and masses of digital goodies you could have bought (and I don't think there's a digital extra I haven't snapped up)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1616558091/
If Paradox have a retail specific Special Edition then this might be the most I've ever thrown at a game by a long , long way
Well the rules last year were...
Sp essentially yes.

it does look nice, I think I'll wishlist it, thanks
about looking nice, forgot to say that JC3 looks very nice too, I hope those screenshots were real.
Ah, pre-order bonuses. I'd be kicking myself for selling my final release key if it weren't for the Champion Edition (I do love my DDEs).
do you know what comes with the Champion Edition, I don't see any info.
Also is it region locked?
No. On Steam you can buy the Hero Edition which is the base game and two yet to be revealed preorder bonuses. Or you can buy the Champion Edition which has a lot of extra digital knick knacks and the same to be revealed preordered bonuses. Both only have one copy each. But if you were a backer or slacker backer then there were quite a few tiers which contained an extra copy or you could have added additional copies to your pledge (in fact I think you still can add them but not start a new pledge).
I'm curious what they are as one of the icons looks like a pie and I've got all the Cooking with Tim ebooks sorted. I wondering where the digital goodies might be obtained from (Obsidian's site does say check back here when stuff is available) so I guess the best way to guarantee them on Steam (and the precision +1's) is to buy the Champion Edition there. Even though I don't think they will please don't take my beta away Obsidian
Click the "More" arrow in the Pre-Purchase Offer section. Also, yes (ACRTAG).

Patch? They need to send ACU to the ICU.
will someone be willing to sell their extra copy for cheap?
It's a steam copy isn't it?

GOG has made me realise I would make for a completely useless stamp collector.
South Park is on sale at gamersgate again, it's still only -33% discount, aww.
They have Ubi sale, but only SP is steam I think.

I like your avatar.
Seems to be the one thing making me interested in actually *playing* VC.
Nail'd it.
That's not TEKKEN. UGH.
If someone would fix the flawless widescreen plugin so I could alter the FOV, I'd go back and try to finish it. I left off in the middle of chapter 3 and thought it was awesomely tense and stressful and a good contender for my GOTY as well.

Damn, my wife is completely addicted to farmville, it's crazy. She never touched videogames before (actually hates them and wishes I would drop them) but now... What is it about that game?

I sitting here and staring at my card with South Park in it, if I'll buy it, gmg immediately will have it on sale for less, no? (><)
It's a legit store, I bought quite a few games there.
edited: I can't say if W3 is locked or not, though
I probably was just slow, I remember I stared at all locations from all sides, rotated camera and just chilled out in that gorgeous forest for no reason, also switched weather back and forth fighting enemies that I had no reason fighting at that point, but it was part of fun (><)

afaik. GOG doesn't have region locks, and it's not really possible without DRM. (It's non-steam, if that's deal breaker)

Oh so it's a GOG key reseller? Seems like a decent alternative for those wanting to purchase TW3 at a cheaper price, albeit without the Steam bells and whistles.
I watched this when it was linked earlier and yep, it seems really interesting.

Don't get me wrong, she never put any money into it.
No, Nuuvem isn't limited to GOG keys, but in the particular case of Witcher 3 it sells a GOG key.
