L4D2 was announced at E3 and last year's first and only VGX (which wasn't on TV, just like how TGA won't be) didn't have high profile surprise announcements. Big stuff. Like Skyrim, TLoU etc. We got NMS, Telltale's two games, TR current gen edition, and there was some silly shit with Reggie that pissed people off (oh right, he announced that old geezer Kong for DKC:TF?). And Steam streamed that and had a special sale.

A man can dream, despite all your "facts" and "logical statements". :(

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Have you checked under the Russian name? (just something I've been wondering)

The ESRB site is kinda shit and searching by the Russian name breaks it and makes it show all results. So... maybe it's there... but I doubt it. I sorted it by date and browsed the first few pages but couldn't find it.

Wow. Didn't know that physical-only-no-online is basically dead then :/ Somehow I thought that's one of the big allures to go physical. Not being dependant on any online services and games being playable "forever" even when their DD counterparts cannot be downloaded anymore sometime in the future. But this.. man.
And haha, of course take your time actually playing Far Cry 4. The pics can wait. Game looks like a blast. Have fun Doc. Jelly.
And as always. Thanks for the big write-up!

Well there are still a few retail games that get released that don't require an account or internet donnection bit they are mostly smaller titles, indies and budget rerelease publisher that us Eureans love sso dearly still (the local big chain PC and Electrial stores here usually have stack of them). Anything with a medium to high budget is going to be tethers to an online service of sorts nut that's been the case for some time. Still better than the limited online activation days.

Well Far Cry 3 wrongly got labeled Skyrim with Guns by one stupid website that shall rename nameless but 4 is actually quite close to that. Well if Skyrim rewarded exploration, had fun emergent gameplay sequences, caused laughter and terror when being attacked by birds of prey and honey badgers, and a whole lot of other things that just happen as you've traveling around. Amd that's not touching on the mechanics and progression system and stuff like co-op (haven't tried yet but probably will at the weekend when my cronies are about).

How come you don't have a tag yet? I am hoping it will have something to do with your general grumpiness or your obsession with playing - even FPS on PC - with a controller... as if it's the superior method :p
don't kill me

Always up for your competitions :)

...bit I think I missunderstood something..

None of my antics are good enough to get a snappy one liner or anything... I mean, I was never quite on the level of nbnt/rhaknar/dupy with the giveaways and I didn't pull anything epic like JaseC with the "family sharing" giveaway of his. I also don't make threads and while I have some uniquely "frost" opinions, none of them seem worthy of a tag.

Given my banter with the mods last night, I thought my tag might end up being Banned... but I somehow ducked that one too.

And your entry to manpuncher is late, but awesome. You should win a copy for making it a Rocket LawnchairCher. ;)

Yeah, I tried that yesterday and got similar results.

"Steam key"

Thanks for the Desura copy of SanctuaryRPG whoever you are! Took me a few attempts to figure out why it wouldn't activate.

Oh shit. I have a small problem. I have two humble bundle keys for Elliot Quest. But I used one and don't remember which. What's the best way about giving this away?
 
PSA: Origin's 'achievement unlocked' noise is horrible.

This concludes the PSA.

Include both?

Speaking of EQ: Elliot Quest is the real deal. I knew I'd like it, but I had no idea I'd be this into it. I also didn't expect such a massive game (I just hit the 20hr mark). It's a big Zelda/Metroidvania type game that won't hold your hand or tell you where to go. It's something worth checking out if you're into that sort of game.

Dude, you're a redhead and a badass, which makes you the SteamGAF equivalent of Abraham from The Walking Dead. I think that's enough notoriety to satisfy any man, tag or no tag.

what legal adults go to summer camp though?

those crazy russians...

I think they used to call those "gulags", no? Though I doubt anyone's going to set a lighthearted VN at one of those...
 
You what? Like, boobies and all?

Fucking A, downloading before its down.

PENETRATION.

Good to hear, it's on my wishlist.
I forget how humble gifts work these days -- but I think he could just include the one he thinks is unused and have the winner PM him if it says it's already redeemed?

Thanks, I think.
I don't have the fu-manchu tho... full out beardageddon for Movember at the moment. :p

lol

I just find it hilarious when they draw characters that are obviously supposed to look like young teens and then say they're 18. They can say that they're 90, it doesn't change how they look.

So I've heard the name thrown around countless times in here in the past so I assume that Nuuvem is safe and legit?

They got the FC4 Season Pass for really cheap.

Now, as I'm writing that, I realize that it might be region locked though since it's a Ubi product?

Been very productive the past 2 days when it comes to finishing games. Finished Alien Isolation yesterday and Shadow of Mordor today.

Alien Isolation: Good, especially the first couple of hours, then everything went downhill when the got kinda boring, repetive, a bit too much backtracking and the shooting screwed up the dtealth.

Shadow of Mordor: Good, but the story was shit an the missions were either shitty or mediocre. Also too combat focused sometimes.

Good games, but not goty candidates for me,

Now I can finally focus on reviewing. Will make some videos tommorrow.
 
Whoever remarked that the "Solar System" challenge in BoI:R was a rage inducing nightmare was 100% factually fucking correct.

That's the best kind of correct.

Just to give me an idea of where you're coming from, what would you consider your personal high-water marks for games? You know, the "gold standard" you judge other games against.
