All you people talking about Christmas right now are a bunch of monsters.

Decorations have already gone up in the shopping centre by me and we've already booked the venue for the staff piss up. And all that before our ritualistic effigy burning night of November 5th too.

AVG is a good antivirus right?

[Arthea]

Are you sure about that? I just checked DE, US, JP and RU and they're all identical except for the omission of Football Manager in Germany since it's not available

Pretty sure it's global

I'm pretty sure, because in the past there were many instances where we had different top seller lists being from different regions and all, but it could have been changed, not that I checked lately.

I used to have it on my laptop before upgrading to Windows 7 and 8.1
From there Windows Defender gets the job done fine.

I'm of the leaning that if you must use a third party application then use Bitdeffender as I've found it the least naggy and the least unobtrusive. Always gets good scores and reviews about how effective it is too.

UAE money. Like USD.

Never mind. Found the article. AED won't be the first batch.

EDIT: The INR (Indian Rupee) is gonna be sooooooooo cheap. Any Indians here?

Me me me. Happy to help if they do indeed add regional pricing.

Maybe that will get some of you to finally add me on Steam

No, and it'll sell your data.

 

[Tektonic]

I kinda liked it at the start but hated when it became only grind and no fun. Then again it's achievements that make it grind and no fun, just playing for couple of hours is fun.

chasing that last achievement broke me. but i played it from the desura release, with no achievements and enjoyed it... not sure what his new games will be like, but he messaged me on steam to check it out 😃

No. I'd just use MS Security Essentials for virus stuff and MalwareBytes for malware checking. From the recent news, AVG will sell your data, which sounds dodgy

What are some good antiviruses?

 

[oipic]

What are some good antiviruses?

I'm using the freebie Avira on a couple of machines at the moment - it scores quite well in testing, seemingly, and isn't too naggy about upgrades (it seemingly displays an upgrade prompt once per day, but I'm lucky to have seen it once a fortnight or so, I reckon).

If you're willing to pay, then Bitdefender is the way to go, in my opinion.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Does Anno 2205 actually come out tomorow or is that date on steam just a placeholder?

Because if it does, talk about zero hype, damn :/

The horrible DRM on the previous entry probably didn't help.

I'm kinda interested, but no way I'm buying until there's a sale. And reviews/impressions.

after grinding for hours, I decided it's not worth it and I don't think I'll ever get that achievement, so glad I'm not OCD at times like this.

Devs had several games on greenlight, but I haven't checked for a while, so not sure how these are doing.

 

[Tizoc]

SEGA pls

Just bring Sonic Colors to Steam already.

It has Eggman's best lines

Steam ver. no longer has DRM, despite ES stating there is (it's a glitch I'm guessing)

Still wish they had stuck with calling him robotnik

My friend got a review copy and has been talking to me about it for a while (we're both big Anno fans). Not sure if I should mention what he said here but yeah, wait for reviews.

 

[TheAutomator]

thanks guys, gonna stick with Windows Defender

 

[derFeef]

Doesn't Bitdefender screw too much with your system/browser setting? Or do you guys mean the antivirus only thing.

edit: I think I mean something different. I will look into Bitdefender, looks promising.

 

[M.D]

Is Nuuvem still safe to buy from? I saw some posts talking about it?

I wonder if I should pre-order Fallout 4 from them or buy it on release day.. what are the chances they remove that 28% discount?

Anyone?

 

[Jawmuncher]

Anyone?

No clue, but unless you're in South America or have someone to help you out, it's gonna be a pain to get a hold of.

 

[Arthea]

Anyone?

everything I checked on nuuvem lately was locked
according to db, Brazil Fallout 4 key is region locked to Brazil. It seems not to have run lock, but as it is an unreleased game, I wouldn't swear by it.


edited: it's actually not even a SA lock, it's Brazil lock.

 

[Tizoc]

This too!

 

[freshVeggie]

AVG is a good antivirus right?

I've been using AVG Internet Security 2015 Full for about half a year now and it is very non-obtrusive and low resource footprint.

No, and it'll sell your data.

...what. Only the free version, right?

 

[TheLetdown]

All of a sudden people are PMing Chuck... just in case.

Confirmed: Chuck is the new SteamGAF cult of personality.

Bought myself a 980TI for a Christmas present. Now to wait for it to arrive.

I hate waiting. Can't I just download a better graphics card yet?

 

[Arthea]

region locking one country? check

we need to go deeper, next on agenda: region locking one city

I'm so jelly

of course you can, don't forget to download more RAM while you are at it.

Sorry about that. I usually get the people to add me.

 

[Kaleinc]

Reached the letter D on the alphabetical journey through my backlog.

Darksiders.

Know nothing about the game. Heard fairly good-ish things about it here on GAF over time. Hope it will be worth a good chunk of my time to finish.

Long and boring ride awaits you.

 

[Monooboe]

wait, how can you decide something like that before even playing it?

Yeah I know it isn't logical but as much as I loved the Elder Scrolls games and latest Fallout games, I just know I will love the latest one. Sure I have easy to get hyped about a game but I really do think FO4 has the potential to be great.

 

[Dr Dogg]

I don't know about you folks but my GOTY for 2016 is Watch Dogs 2 and that hasn't even been announced yet. Though I might be slightly mental.

 

[NingenJanai]

Torment: Tides of Numenera.

wait, what makes you think it will be announced at all?
I thought Watch Doggies didn't sell all that good, by Ubi standards, I mean, or did it?

 

[shockdude]

Panda Free Antivirus is underrated. Just saying.

Darksiders.

Darksiders is one of those game series that people have divisive opinions of. I enjoyed it at least.

I should start Darksiders II.

 

[The Dear Leader]

It sold really well from what I understand, and I'm pretty Ubisoft is going to make it a franchise.

I'm actually excited for it too, I liked Watch_Dogs quite a bit.

Hmmm there's a loop I think you might be a little bit out of but at the time Watch Dogs was the highest selling new IP over here (beaten by Destiny a couple of months later mind). As disapointing it might have been for some folks it still sold stupidly well, and well enough to get it on the annualised train. So WD 1 in 2014, WD 2 in 2016, WD 3 in 2017, WD 4 in 2018 etc.

Sorry that's a little too spooky a thought for some and we've just past Halloween.

It seems I fell victim to hyperbole yet again.
So how good we are talking? AssCreed levels of good?

 

[Monooboe]

I wouldn't mind a Watch_Dogs 2, quite liked the first one.

 

[Kifimbo]

My guess is Clint Hocking went back to Ubisoft to work on Watch Dogs 2.

Watch Dogs Ships 8 Million Units, Helping Ubisoft Sales Rise a Massive 374%

Watch Dogs Sells 4 Million Copies in First Week, Needs 2 Million More to Match Assassin's Creed's Lifetime Tally

 

[Nzyme32]

Torment: Tides of Numenera.

Yeah, NumaNuma should be great. Also looking forward to The Witness, FireWatch, Xcom 2 and Divinity 2

 

[Dr Dogg]

It seems I fell victim of hyperbole yet again.
So how good we are talking? AssCreed levels of good?

Well according to Eurogamer at the time it was Ubi's biggest UK launch beating out ACIII which I think was around the 350k mark. No idea what the global score is as I'm really not that interested.

 

[Arthea]

Watch Dogs Ships 8 Million Units, Helping Ubisoft Sales Rise a Massive 374%

whoa, that is AssCreed levels of good.

From talks about it you could never guess


edited: it reminds me AssCreed (the first one) situation a lot (only I haven't played WD yet, waiting to $5 it... or not, because that would mean I have to reinstall uplay), when I accidentally checked sales I couldn't believe my eyes.

 

[fantomena]

I literally don't understand why SEGA chose to port Sonic Lost World to PC.

I own the WIi U version and it's a big shit, anbsolutely terrible game in all aspects.

Sure, if you are a super duper mega Sonic fan or just want that 1+ in the library, other than that, there's no point in getting Lost World.

Eh, I can't find a good Saoirse pic which would fit the girl in my avi. One where she closes her eyes and smiles gently.
