WTF? I can't change steam store with cc=us or cc=ru or cc=fr etc anymore?

Edit: NVM problem with firefox only. Very stupid. Firefox is going IE route these days -_-. It even blocks internet Securities.

Have to still check and ask but there's still been no news on Hotline Miami 2's release date has there?

The Way they've handled that has been a joke.

I don't block people generally, but this is a solid set of rules.

Surprised by how much I'm enjoying Saints Row IV. I never could get into the previous three, but this one really works for me. Unlike the other games, I think it's very well-written and toes the line effectively between clever, relatively subtle humor and a broader, more over-the-top style, and the science fiction setting gives it a lot of ripe material to poke fun at.

The mobility powers in the vein of Hulk: UD and Prototype are also a treat, though they're odd in that they make using land vehicles (which there's full customization for) largely superfluous. Would have liked to see them go a bit crazier in vehicle designs, and the setting would have allowed it.
Click to expand...
Agreed, and the vehicle thing is more of a consequence of starting as SR3 DLC.
It's also the best Matrix game ever.

LurkerPrime said:
Well... it started as an expansion pack for Saint's Row the Third. Presumably some of the more unusual elements included in the game (primarily vehicles) reflect that.

The most impressive aspect of SR4, to me, was how much of a love letter SR4 is to fans of the series, with references and callbacks to previous games throughout the campaign. It helped that the game itself was really fun to play; case in point: Volition finally perfected the Insurance Fraud minigame.
Click to expand...
It totally was a love letter, especially since they referenced the changes between 2 and Third in a pretty funny way.
Insurance Fraud was awesome yes, but it was already awesome in Third. I didn't care much for the Rift activities though.

someguyinahat said:
Yeah, agreed. I think they were in a place where they believed there might not be another Saints Row game so they might as well make it a big thank you and fond goodbye. Some characters were notable in their absence and could only be mentioned by name: I guess they couldn't afford the voice actor for Angel, but for some reason they got his long-time nemesis. But overall, lots of good callbacks.
Click to expand...
Agreed, it certainly feels like that.

Bayonetta 2 not charting isn't surprising at all after it floundered in Japan. "Hindsight is 20/20" and all, but still, talk about betting on the wrong horse.
Click to expand...
To be fair, Nintendo announced it before the Wii U was released, when they thought their only weakness was a potential lack of "core" games.

Speed Rift was fun.

TK Rift was okay but more than once I died after getting to the gold level. Kept getting hit by balls that I didn't even see coming.

FUCK Platforming Rift. Fuck it right in the ear. I may never get gold on the hard one. Silver was hard enough.

I'd recommend on holding off on playing the COD campaign, the cinematics are broken right now from the latest patch (unless you're running a surround sound system).

TK Rift was annoying with that at first, but honestly it got absurdly easy if done after getting several upgrades (like all the health ones... always found interesting that the game about superpowers doesn't have infinite health while SR3 did).
Agreed on Platforming Rift though, as I'm missing one gold medal (can't remember which one ATM), but talking about it makes me want to try it again xD

Watch Dogs seems like a bizarre smash up of SC Blacklist and GTA. Had to lower detail to High, turn off AA and DoF to get an acceptable framerate. The nighttime scenes sure are purdy from what I've seen, but the driving model isn't exactly my cup o' tea. I'll continue and see if it clicks with me, but even if it doesn't it was a cheap Uplay copy so no biggie.

Probably the same world where Shenmue III has gone gold.

I started playing OlliOlli today and I feel like this game should be on all platforms and sell as many copies as Trials does. The control scheme is hard to get used to, but is fresh while having that Tony Hawk brand of just-one-more-try that feels great when you finally hit that score/goal.

I'm totally good with no SP campaign as long as there's decent bot support.

Got hit with an SCR download earlier today (Didn't know about it until today) through one of my friends who apparently fell for it - Didn't open the file. Been hearing conflicting reports on whether or not just downloading it alone fucks over accounts or if it has to be opened manually before the fun begins.

I moved all my inventory to one of my smurfs for safekeeping right away (Yes, their inventory is still intact as of now), purged the SCR from my PC, ran virus scans, purged a Trojan, and promptly switched around all my passwords. Am I in the clear now/If I was fucked would the effects be felt instantly, or is there delay behind it? None of my AVs report anything suspicious anymore, but I still have my paranoia.

Well, it's my top #1 wanted game right now and I have two copies on my way from the figure KS campaign but I think it's pretty refreshing to see a "when it's ready" approach on releasing a game, even though my thirst is very real

If Team17 wanted to maximise its HB sales it should have put Worms Armageddon in the $6 tier. Or stealth-re-released Worms 2.

Yeah, I got Chrono Phantasm right here I don't really see the need to buy Continuum Shift Extend again. It'd make more sense to bring the revision of CP they're working on instead.

I'll buy it Day 1 just like I did Calamity Trigger, I'm not even that interested in BlazBlue games(never really played them) but I'll be sure to support more PC releases of fighting/japanese games! :)

Sweet. It better have online mode this time! lol

Trigger was already on PC, just like the Guilty Gear games. This isnt, and one assumes has to be a port of the ps3 / 360 version, like KOF13 for example. so it should have online...

...now if its good online? probably not :p

Well unless the porting team messes up the netcode it should be pretty good since the console versions had great net code.

shockingly no. theres a line someone says implying a sequel, but not an action...if that makes sense? that particular fight is done

its not like Ghosts which ends on a HUGE cliffhanger
