The Super Best Friends and Game Grumps threads also got moved to Community a couple weeks ago.
I still think SBF got moved cause people kept thinking it was the Super Smash Bros thread and clicking on it by mistake

The last time I checked on the SBF threads, which admittedly was many threads ago, I just went right to the last page and saw that weird manga page of the guy licking some girl's eyeball. Haven't really been tempted to go back since :p

can steamgaf pretty please buy Valkyria Chronicles please ( ◔ิω◔ิ)

I did, many days ago.

I did that so many times I was getting annoyed.
That face honestly was why I finally started using bookmarks.

30 Nancy Drew games. No wonder it seemed like there's at least one in every fucking discovery queue.

Also, the discovery queue still gives games that aren't available in my region...
This time it's the cursed crusade, which is available according to steamdb.
I'm confused.

Edit: And Bunch of Heroes. Again. I just noped it like 4 items ago.
Is it trying to give me out of region packages?
Really, Volvo?
the discovery queue is absolute garbage

just ignore it

it's never gonna help you
 
I don't really know much about this game, but it gives me advanced wars vibes. Am I on the right track?
Turn-based strategy where you directly control selected units on the battlefield, with some real-time behaviors like enemies shooting at you on the move. Plenty of comparisons are made between it and the battle phase of XCOM.

Wow. The contrast between the blue (has to be contacts) eyes and bright red lipstick is glaring. Glad Google has that reverse image search thingy now. Makes it much easier to look up where GIFs are from. Never heard of her (graveyardgirl) before.

So I decided a while back I wanted Binding of Isaac: Rebirth to be my 1000th game:

But of course, the last couple of weeks I've had to sit on all my new bundle purchases and such in order to have Isaac still hit at 1000. So shortly after activing Isaac:

I swear I'm going to buy less going forward! Less than a year to double my game count is somewhat absurd (I hit 500 on December 30th of last year). Of course I say that and bought more bundles just today...

Edit: And Isaac is great of course and the co-op is well done and a lot of fun.

I can't belive I'm saying this, but I like CoD:AW's campaign, a lot.

Stop it.

So my CoDAW MP experience hasn't been so great. It's definitely better than Ghosts, but the weaponry is just so weak. 2050 sucks.

Weak as in people don't die instantly online?

That's what CoD really needs, extend the time to kill by like 5x and remove regenerating health.

Im really liking it but im waiting on either a patch for the game and/or new amd drivers to help with the constant stutter I get.

The energy weapon is pretty good, I've been having a lot of fun in the multiplayer (and I usually don't play CoD's multiplayer)
Jumpjets+laser weapon=fun

Dammit COD Advanced Warfare is tempting me. Thinking also about getting Valkyria Chronicles, but preordering PC ports of japanese games is a bit of a russian roulette, so I dunno. What to do what to do

I don't have an agenda against the series, I'm glad it doesn't suck now.

Boost jump, dive and slide makes killing time longer, which is nice, no more "you're dead cuz I saw you first".

same quandary. aren't there usually soonish post-release hotfixes, or am I confusing this with no fixes, in the case of Deadly Premonition.

Durante requested to do the OT for it so I would imagine if something wasn't up to par he'd be on it. He has interest in it.

That and it's Sega, aren't their ports usually solid? They already confirmed it'd be 1080p/60fps and have custom button mapping/mouse support.

Whatever happens, $17.99 or less for one of SEGA's best new games with all of its great DLC included is a great deal. Variable resolutions are in at the very least.

Ugh. Majestic Nights has no configurable keyboard controls and hardlocks to qwerty.
Sigh.
You're not selling me on your full game here, guys.
 
I see the thread has moved. Was wondering why there were so many new posts.

I leave this thread for 2 days and you guys got us moved to community! :p

Count me among those impressed by the PC port of Advanced Warfare, especially after the shitshow that was Ghosts last year. It normally runs at 100-120fps so I can enable supersampling and still always stay above 50fps which is nice. And it looks about as good as a game in this engine can be made to look. The sound design on the other hand leaves much to be desired. But still, it seems like a fun campaign and reasonably long for this series.

The multiplayer P2P shit is as bad as it was expected to be.

Anyway, some spares. Please take them.
