Game Dev story really taught me that you have to be pretty dirty to survive as a big gaming company. I was spurning sequels and generic crap to get good money.
Good review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62fUnt2V0o0
Finishing this game... is like a lifetime achievement...
Haha thanks, I got challenged to make it by Comics-GAF. It'll be hanging around until the end of the month until I make it a little more festive.

I sold 16 million copies of FPS Shooty RPG 2 and at the time there wasn't even enough consoles for it to have a 100% attach rate, which means that either people loved it so much that they bought multiple copies or that some people were purchasing it for machines they didn't even own.
If that's not success i dont know what is.
Even if that game is short, I still might get it just for the craftsmanship involved.

Once again I venture outside of Steamgaf to the console threads, once again I am beaten away by the madness.

That game must have had some rad box art.
Can't you run the game offline without installing patches on uplay though? I've always been given the option. I know I did with Unity when they released the 1.02 patch or whatever the ver number was.

I wish more developers added cruel jokes to pirates.
I think that the no-glide Batman truly makes Arkham City unplayable!

Worth a shot but I had micro stutter in D3 until I told my antivirus to stop scanning the folder.

You need to connect once in order to unlock the game. The moment you connect to Uplay to decrypt the files or whatever magic happens, you get the first patch. As far as I know there was no way to skip the patch.

at least quote the pictures man. damn.
If anyone is interested about graphics and rendering and stuff, you should read this blog post "Physically Based Deferred Rendering in Costume Quest 2" by Double Fine's David Farrell.

I found this weird Dragone Age: Inquisition browser game. If you finish it you get the Red Lyrium Weapon Pack in the game: http://quest.dragonage.com/en-us/

Just to double check, there is no discounted Steam version (yes, I know it still uses Uplay) of Far Cry 4 that anyone is aware of is there?
If you liked the other Batman Arkham games, you'll probably like Oranges. I got it and enjoyed it. Maybe even a bit more than City. I haven't played Blackgate though. How much are each of those?

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Yes. I think the only way to get it on Steam is to buy it on Steam, so that'll be tough one to get a discount on.
I'm dead set on Oranges after some recs here, and the fact that I did love City. All three(Origins, Season Pass, and Blackgate) are 5 bucks a piece, so I'll be spending 8 w/coupon on two of them.
Edit: Having Steam versions of Ubi games is superb(wish Origin was the same on all recent titles). The Uplay-only versions can be found cheap much sooner than I'd expect otherwise.

Kind of a tease that they put 1-3 on sale recently. "Hey, buy our old games on Steam, but we don't really want you buying the new one unless you are willing to pay $90"
GMG seems to have the best deal, but I don't want to cave and buy a Uplay only version of a Ubi game.

My laptop freezes randomly. At first I thought it was overheating but sometimes it freezes shortly after turning it on and other times it goes a whole day without issues. Can't find a pattern for it.
^I need to get around to checking out Arkham Origins, Asylum and City were great.

Thanks for this doing it now.

Snow has been so bad up here.
Had to dig out my car but i've decided im still not going anywhere due to how bad the roads are. Thank goodness for digital games in this case.
For the love of god avoid Blackgate. Only get it if you have money to spare and its less than $5. Get Origin.
Oh wait I misunderstood your question.
I would get Origin with Blackgate if that's the case. The Season Pass isn't worth it.

the only good DLC for Oranges is Cold Cold Heart and you can get that on sale in the future. Blackgate is criminally underrated for what it is, and the only real issue i had with it was that it has a couple of filler moments that break the pacing for me. Still, loved it more that Strider 2014, and that has to count for something.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
Wow, that's an incredibly tedious "browser game".
It's basically "watch four trailers at least two times and then click on stuff"
Eh, whatever.
Getting Oranges w/ Blackgate then. It takes place after the main course so I don't want to miss that bit.
Should the OG Dragon Age be played before Inquisition? The new one has me interested, but even with a free copy of Dragon Age it just seems so bland from watching a bit of some playthroughs.

Nah.
Dragon Age has never fully connected like Mass Effect did.
If you read the description in the OT and recall some of the stuff from older games you'll be fine.

Skip the first trailer for every page btw!
still not flattering
no i get people liking it, i just can't understand anyone having any sort of loyalty to that franchise
lol agin looks like cool suikoden stuff but srs chinese only? wtf
is it just me or does that not sound any different -_-
That sounds good and time-saving. I got my PC copy of Dino 2 btw, and will be installing later. Hope I have no issues.
Like most DRM-linked anti piracy implementations, this sometimes fucked up even for legit copies.
See also: the Mass Effect Galaxy Map not opening for 'pirated' copies.
GMG's deal of the day is the WH40K Dawn of War franchise 75% off

Nice. Mine should be here today.
But once again the snow is so bad i'm not gonna bother.
Still searching for a box of DC1. Apparently only PAL collectors kept the box intact.

So, I'm doing other tests, this is what I got now by putting PhysX on GPU instead of CPU.
Ultra setting, all details maxed out, 200%.
Why are you wasting your time with the Mordor benchmark?
DC1 I have on PSOne(Greatest Hits, ugh), but I'd like to have a new/mint PC copy if they weren't so expensive. Really want these games digitally, and the Resi trilogy as well.

I have both black labels of DC1 and 2, as well as Dino Stalker, and that xbox game.
PC and the DC version is all i'm missing. In terms of NA releases.

Especially when the whole game is right there for actual testing with actual meaningful results.
