Yeah, Leafhopper just told me about that on steam.

I think it's a waste of time for me to watch it, so i'll skip it.

i like to leave quicklooks playing for some background noise while i'm working/goofing around

i generally just watch the gbeast ones (since i love vinny, alex and austin) or the ones i feel like jeff's gonna be hilarious at. dan's grown on me and brad's cool but i feel like gbwest just covers games i'm not as interested in and don't have the personalities that align so well with me. or something.

works out for me

 

[Se7enSword]

Unless, for some reason, you really like/identify/trust the people at GB, pretty much all QL are a waste of time.

Heh, pretty much.

 

[rtcn63]

Is Dan Ryckert with GB now? Or was that Gamespot? I really like the Game Informer guys, they seem so chill, and I can watch them play almost anything. They don't seem to pander as much, and just "be".

I expect Amazon Black Friday to suck, like their prime day.

To be honest i am only looking for good PS+ deals XD If somebody can deliver that it would be good sale for me XD

 

[Ludens]

PSN sales are always crap on EU. I envy US users those 1$ PS1 classic sales, they have also so many PS2 games missing on EU, like Forbidden Siren.

My country is not officially supported by Sony so i have US and UK accounts But Steam is still my primary platform.

all the threads i make are doomed except league thread that has bikini anime girls in it so i dunno if you're scared i'd just put bikini anime girls in it

people seem to like it

 

[Parsnip]

Well that 'a use for SteamOS appeared' thread certainly woke me up this morning.

I read the OP 4 times and I'm still not 100% sure what he's talking about.
But now that I think about it, I probably don't actually care what he's talking about.

Im too afraid to post the thread i wrote. Beeing me sucks.

How did you feel before posting your first thread, SteamGAF?

I felt awesome.
Then no one replies to it and then I felt less awesome.

So is Greenmangaming just going to have "Authorized Source" next to the games like COD: BLOPS 3, or is that just a placeholder for now until they put the actual distributor? Some of the folks out for blood aren't going to accept that.

Like others though, I'm fine as long as they aren't stolen regardless.

They will never reveal source for that because they don't want to put them on publisher naughty list.

 

[zkylon]

what's an unauthorized source anyways?

doesn't that have to me most definitely stolen?

what other reason could there be for a key to be unauthorized

Unauthorized seller = doesn't have contract with publisher to sell their games.

 

[freshVeggie]

Are Steam Machine Game Consoles Worth it?
I agree with almost every point here. Despite the title it's more about SteamOS though tbh.

 

[zkylon]

and how did they get the keys?

 

[Deleted member 125677]

What's the story behind Lashman's tag?

 

[dex3108]

and how did they get the keys?

From seller who has contract with publisher For example GMG sells Black Ops 3 and they don't have contract with publisher to sell them so they buy keys from GetGames/WinGameStore... and they have contracts with publisher.

Either way Activision gets paid in this case for the key, so I am unsure what morally or legally is wrong.

Next time you see a Lashman post on here, you're likely to get the picture.

 

[Lomax]

The only real issue most people have is that the major sites that do it and have no relationships with publishers have also been known to go farther and have had keys end up getting revoked. It isn't so much "is it legal" as it is "is it trust worthy."

Edit: I'll also add that I don't think reddit mods cares in the slightest about the customers or especially the publishers, but rather they care about all the messages they get when a deal they have up doesn't work out right for some people.

 

[Parsnip]

There's nothing wrong with that specifically.

As far as I saw, the problem was that GMG claimed to be an authorized seller of publishers x, y and z, but then it turned out that the keys from publisher y didn't come directly from the publisher after all, but through a middleman.

Ah alright. So its not the keys they get from authorized vendors thats the issue but the potential for them to get keys from cdkeys.com or the like that are not. Makes sense.

 

[Teppic]

Unsure if these keys works.

Played some BLOPS3 multiplayer, high level players with high firerate weapons are unkillable. Really considering if I should go through the soul crushing grind.

So Far Cry Primal won XD

Oh, the 3rd person action creed game that EA is making is helmed by Jade Raymond.
That makes almost too much sense.

I don't know how bad I actually feel about this, spring was pretty crowded, and August should be a pretty strong month to release.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

The Frostbyte Engine looks so great. Saw this screen in the PC screenshot thread:

Sad that most games that use it well are developed by Dice (and MP FPS).

Truth... and if it leads to a more polished game overall? Sounds good to me.

 

[Flandy]

Sooo Syndicate might have a little oversight in its cloth physics (assuming it is physics based and not animated). Flandy pointed out in the PC Perf thread that Evie's cape was not updating at the same frequency as the rest of the simulation.



Also there's this other vid which features Jacob and here too you can see his coats movement is not in sync with the framerate.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kADcWwa01vo

Hmmmmm that stands out a mile in both vids and is probably going to do my nut in.

Yeah Jacob has the same issue but it's a lot more noticeable on Evie since she has a cape

Speaking of that I just bought a new computer. It is not crazy powerful but it runs fallout 4 ULTRA 60fps at 1080p.

GTX 970
16GB DDR4
i5 6600K

What is the new "crysis" in terms of graphical settings if I want to see something pretty.

 

[JaseC]

Two non-descript updates for AssCreed Syndicate. Just flip the switch already, Ubi.

 

[freshVeggie]

That's ok by me.

Dragon Age Inquisition was a real beauty as well. Loved the screenshots floating around.

You can try the Dinosaur VR thing :v

 

[Ludens]

But 4 days before if you pre-ordered the game, right? Lol.

 

[arts&crafts]

haha I should have mentioned *If i want to play a game*

But I may actually check that out for lulz.

 

[Kriken]

Man, 2017 is going to be a great year for games

 

[tuxfool]

Needs a 980 and a DK2.

 

[JaseC]

Needs a 980 and a DK2.

For 75fps, yes, but not to run the game at all.

 

[Chariot]

You didn't want 4 days earlier? FINE, GET SOME MONTHS LATER

 

[jshackles]

You didn't want 4 days earlier? FINE, GET SOME MONTHS LATER

It does make you wonder if they kinda knew beforehand that they were going to be delayed, and killed off their "augment your pre-order" campaign so that there wasn't a huge backlash when the inevitable delay was announced.

 

[Spirited]

February is almost empty, might actually have money to buy both XCOM 2 and disgaea PC.
