I thought about it, but you were just under the cut as I'd already handed out like 4-5 copies to people in here.

Fuzzi likes to gift that game to people too, so maybe it was him.

You can check the email associated with your steam account, it should have a copy of the popup that announced the gift.

Metal Gear Rising's bullshit ruined my PS4 controller's left analogue stick although that has a lot to do with the general build quality of the thing.

What "bullshit"?

I 100%'ed that game with a DS4 on PC. My DS4 is still pretty much pristine too -- I ended up swapping the analog sticks out for another type because I wasn't fond of the rubberized material they used, but this was after 80 hours of MGR:R (and more!)

I used a guide while playing Grim Fandango and immediately felt guilt wash over me. So I deleted my save which was maybe a bit drastic. I'll return to it after a couple of months after what I saw is repressed from my memory

I don't think there's reason to feel guilty for using a guide... sometimes puzzles are just not something you'd ever think of... sometimes they're arbitrary in terms of order and stuff too... or prevent you from using an obvious solution. While I understand where you're coming from, I'm just saying I don't think there's any reason to feel bad about consulting a guide if you get stuck and are just spinning your wheels.

For example, I played through the large majority of VLR without a guide... but one of the last rooms had a puzzle type that my brain is just not good with... so I ended up using a guide to help with that puzzle so I could complete the story and the game and not have it be something I put down and never come back to/finish because it didn't click... and I look back fondly on VLR because of that where that last puzzle might've ruined it for me otherwise.

Either way, good luck with it in the future. :)

I did notice it on your wishlist... and I considered supplying you with a copy. I just realized how much I'd already spent on gifts for people during the sale and had to put the brakes on for budgeting reasons. I don't want to take credit for someone else's good deed. But whomever they are, I commend them.

I'm kinda glad FO4 has such crappy textures. Every Beth game I DL hi-res packs off the nexus anyway, so I can see why Beth isn't bothering this time around.

No controller without AA batteries lasts very long. Why would you not want a controller that can last for 30+ hours on a single charge and can be instantly and fully charged within 20 seconds by switching out the rechargeable battery of your choice(enloops last forever)

This may or may not work. Humble made it seem like I was given 2 keys for this back when those build-a-bundles were going on. If this one works, I may have copies of some Telltale games (Tales from the Borderlands, Game of Thrones, Wolf Among Us) and stuff like Ronin to give away. I think there's also a Deus Ex Human Revolution - Director's Cut somewhere in my un-redeemed stash.

I'll wait and see if this works first. Just as a heads up in the event that someone is dying for one of those and hasn't been able to pick it up for whatever reason.

Seems its not working like that. Thanks anyway~~

Hmmm, not a bad looking piece of hardware... how does it work for games requiring xinput? Do you have to use the old xinput mapper method or can you get it working through one of the ds4 programs like ds4win/inputmapper?

thank you fuzzi for the gift of yaiba !

Hah, called it. I knew it was him, as he seemed to follow in my love of Yaiba and dispensing it to others in SteamGAF. :)

Good on him. Heart of gold, that one.

I got the Wiimote charger pack from the Nintendo store. It looks slick but the wiimote condom is clearish white and the charger and battery pack are black. So I have to barehand it.

I use the Mayflash adapter for the pro controller on PC. It has a switch on it, Xinput (supports 1 controller), or Dinput (supports up to 4). On XInput it is detected as regular 360 pad. You can remap the a,b,x,y from the Ninteno and Microsoft layout as well.

Only issue is no analog triggers so a few games might get some undesired behavior with that.

Hrrrm. There's another Santa Yaiba running around?
I've been slowly giving it to everyone on my FL who had it wishlisted and would be likely to play it... I just ran out of funds for the Halloween sale and was going to do another round during the Winter sale.

Yeah there is, I got a copy too!

I wonder if Bethesda would benefit from replacing Todd Howard with a new creative lead...it will never happen unless he leaves though.

I'm sure lots of people will have fun with Fallout 4 anyways and that's cool.

Today is our lord Gaben's birthday, and no one even has mentioned it yet? :D

We don't celebrate GabeN's birthday because GabeN is eternal.

And I really don't know what Activision was thinking with that King purchase. There is no way they will get their money back anytime soon if ever.

you only need this: WiinUSoft: use WiiU Pro Controller/Wiimote/more on PC w/ SUPPORTED Bluetooth adapters
Click to expand...

Thanks... I might have to cop a WiiU Pro controller and try that... or just get a mayflash. Is there a good site for grabbing a mayflash at a reasonable price? Or a WiiU Pro controller (black friday sales soon, maybe...)?

I've been contemplating the best type of controller to get working with a macbook for when I travel, but DS4 doesn't seem optimal. I was interested in the Steam controller but a lot of the impressions have soured me on that as of late... so maybe a WiiU Pro controller is the way to go.

You were all in the next batch (winter sale) I swear!
That means I'm going to have to throw games at Fuzzi to repay his kindness in spades... especially for helping me spread the wonder of Yaiba.

Maybe not, otherwise why would their be "play now" and "buy now 75% off"

They've given it out free in the past, which is the only reason it's on my account... but you're probably right.

Eh, at least we got a Korra game. That showed more love for the property than Nickelodeon did at least! So I'll always be glad about that.
