I was just wondering...

10 years ago who would have thought that console-games would need patches, crash, have memory leaks, lets you buy Cheats instead of unlocking them etc.
I wonder whats down the line in another 10 years.

Every AAA game has early access for a premium price, goes retail after reaching beta, never leaves beta.

Forza Horizon 2 and Sunset Overdrive for PC spotted on Amazon.fr

Don't care about Forza, but I'd be interested in Sunset Overdrive. The game looked fun in the gameplay videos, though a tad bit too... slow.

 

[Deitus]

I really hope Sunset Overdrive coming to PC is legit. It's the only Xbone game I'm interested in that hasn't yet come to PC.

That sounds true.

I just wonder if shit like companion apps could be normal in 10 years.

 

[Atraveller]

That sounds true.

I just wonder if shit like companion apps could be normal in 10 years.

It's basically a new way to "combat piracy", pirates don't give a damn about virtual gears, so it doesn't work.

Unless you need it to activate the game every time you boot it up.

Forza Horizon 2 and Sunset Overdrive for PC spotted on Amazon.fr

Both seem really fun, so this is great.

Now for Halo MCC.

I rather have the original old Halo ports.

Halo Custom edition is too good. give me an upgraded Coldsnap and i'm in heaven

 

[Dongs Macabre]

Custom Edition is great, but Halo 2 Anniversary looks amazing.

Halo MCC with mod support would be GOAT.

I'm a purist so i don't like the new things added in the ann edition.

 

[Htown]

Looks nice, wishlisted!

Same. Sounds like they're expanding that memory remix mechanic into a full game.

 

[Ruruja]

Forza Horizon 2 and Sunset Overdrive for PC spotted on Amazon.fr

I highly doubt it though.

It would fit the past precedent set by Dead Rising 3 and Ryse, with Insomniac owning the IP and Microsoft publishing. The only difference may be Microsoft pursing a sequel due to Sunset's critical success.

There were also some port rumors prior to release

What is up with the halo games on the registry? Are they still there?

 

[Jawmuncher]

Now to play the waiting game.
My Dragon Age Inquistion preload is done.
Just hope the PC version has no big issues at launch.

If there was, it would've been pointed out. At worst, Dragon Age Keep won't handle the traffic, that's it.

well - at least you can already listen to the soundtrack

Now that's live, I still don't understand. If I want to comment on something, I have to cross post to this thread to discuss

There's been a few new driver updates since then for nvidia.
Thus I hope it's not a DR3 fiasco where we think it should all be fine and then sadness.

Wasn't worth the 5 extra dollars to me.

Been irrelevant for a long time now. The app has been deleted and hasn't been touched.

 

[Maniac]

Following the release of the game, Ubi sent out a survey to test the idea of spinning off Black Flag into its own open-world swashbuckling series, which, if the AssCreed 3-related survey is any indication, means it's going to happen.



Another nice bundle.

Edit: Oh, I confused Freedom Fall with Freedom Planet.

But... How the heck would they get you to climb a tower if they made it a proper swashbuckling series?

... Actually, nevermind. They'd have silly towers placed by ports and harbour towns, ofcourse!

Although if it comes to fruition, it might be the first Ubi game I'd purchase since South Park*

*Had a pre-purchase of South Park before THQ went belly-up, so, uh...

I made a thread to all of GAF about cards for MGSV:GZ

Nothing but good things for everyone if we can get them added.

Already did for the sake of all that is good.

And also for great justice.

the game looks gorgeous compared to the original, and the original was already a resource hog (but that was mostly because it was so janky). Just gotta find out whats killing the frames, its not "advanced physx" cause tht didnt change shit

Eh, it wasn't really janky other than some gameplay and whatnot. It's quite a technical masterpiece, especially in the graphics department, hence why it was used as a benchmark tool more often than Crysis. And it's still used, last I checked! It'll be interesting to see whether the Reduxes'll replace it as a benchmark tool, or something else entirely.

Meh.
Didn't the MS stuff for PC is so hit and miss I won't get excited until it actually gets announced.
Though Sunset has more of a chance than Forza since it's in the same boat as DR3 and Ryse.

A lot of previous "LEIF TAIM EXCLUSIFF" games have been spotted on Amazon before anywhere else, and they've quite often turned out true. I wont get my hopes up though, although I do think I'd enjoy Overdrive quite a bit.

too late ... already posted that on the previous page

Yeah, I also noticed that, dunno what they fixed. I thought they were finally adding Steam Cards for all the games, but it seems it isn't the case

I really hope Sunset Overdrive coming to PC is legit. It's the only Xbone game I'm interested in that hasn't yet come to PC.

The only other Xbone exclusive I'm currently interested in is D4. Other than that, there really isn't much else.

Critical success?
Do you mean in terms of review scores?
Cause I was just reading something the other day about how terrible the sales have been.

We must be getting a cross game cross over for all xseed games.

I guess. I know of one thing it relates to.
Just odd i'm allowed to have it everywhere no issues except for in community discussion.

Muching on a Carpet is the only slang I know of.

i like it

No mod replies, I've updated the final version of the Steam News thread, a few of you raised some pointers including Morningbus who summarised some very good points on how discussions should go forward in the new thread, a link-back has been posted to here.

I'll probably post this within 30 minutes as it seems fine, have a check:

sad to have gotten to that but good luck

hope it puts an end to all the complaining so saoirse can be herself again

This looks charming and interesting, wishlisted

i dunno why but i can't get over the rpgmakerness of rpg maker games

- there is nothing stopping you posting news here.

- it's up to to people who post in this thread to dictate what this thread is about.
- it's still a Steam thread first most, anything else has been tagged along the way.

please be stable, haven't had a tetris game since Worlds

Ys I&II patches are over 100 mb, so they are kinda big.

But in serious news I even went ahead and sent the DRM developer a friend request.

Yeah i'm real curious what exactly could be that big.
Has to be more than just stability. Soundtracks maybe?
