Think it's still Funstock Digital, and they should give them for launch.

Even if I could afford a full price game right now I'd probably wait on F4. After TW3 and MGSV (which I only finished yesterday) I need a break from these massive open worlds.
I'm busy with TITS anyway and I need to scrap together the money for Yakuza 5 which should the be the nail in the coffin for my gaming budget for the rest of the year with the possible exception of some game on my wishlist becoming dirt cheap during the steam winter sale.

I don't know... at first I was fine with the 80% as I only have DS1 and DS2 so either way I wouldn't get it free, I even put in money into steam to get the new version. BUT not giving it free to those who have DS2 and at least season pass is kind of sucky, so might not get it now, in pure protest and solidarity.
They said that before too, but it doesn't really explain why others can do it but Nordic can't.
I'd love to hear technical explanation.

That was a mistake. And capcom has no money they have Sony writing checks to make the game.
At least Salsa uses dark theme.

Gross.
It doesn't deserve it.
People love and praise FFX which is FFXIII on the PS2 without an interesting battle system and more annoying/poorly designed characters than just about anyone in XIII. I will gladly take Vanille and Sazh over Wakka.
FFX was one of the most disappointing games in the series after the spectacular run of VII-IX. And when FFXIII ends up being a repeat of the game in terms of being ridiculously linear for a good part of the game, people throw up their arms and rage. FFXIII's story might have been some random jibberish for the most part, but I'll take that any day over the world of FFX.
But then again, opinions.
Wow. They just don't care...
Me too.
My thinking on the Darksiders 2 upgrade is this: if you think it's a big enough upgrade to be worth your time (ie. you go back, re-download it and replay it), then asking for a couple bucks seems more than reasonable. If you don't think it's a big upgrade, seeing as how the edition that's on Steam now runs at 60 FPS, then don't get in a big fuss over it. Move on with your life.

Black Ops 3 seems pretty amazing outside of ditching the incredibly neat and subtle branching from Blops 2. Is GMG the best place to grab it?
It's a pretty good game. Plot's kind of nonsense, but that's kind of a problem with the XIII series in general lol. Music's great too.

Not if you want to know when they're going to send out keys.
Unsure if it was debunked or not about the Nuketown DLC exclusivity in the UK... I saw lashbot post something but didn't click it to investigate.
So yeah, GMG, maybe, if you want it for $40ish and don't mind risking a "late" key delivery and the lack of Nuketown.
I concur.
The shooting actually looks quite good this time around, for one. They had id consult on the mechanics and a veteran designer from Bungie on the game.

The original textures were run through tharpen filter and that's that.
It's 5th already and where is DE, dirty nordic liars.

I'm still pretty pissed about that Darksiders 2 Loyalty Program as well.
I don't even want the damn game, but the handling of the whole situation is shit.

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.
Here was my response to them in the thread:
I know some folks who work in BD at Valve that could probably help them get this set up correctly. But PunishedSnake was probably right yesterday, they're hoping to get a little more money from the "game collectors" and "hardcore fans".
Jet packs!!!
In a way, Nordic's decision makes sense. After all, the people that bought Darksiders at full price gave that money to THQ, not Nordic. Whereas a larger portion of the sale priced bundles went to Nordic. Either way, I give it six months tops before the new version is in a bundle.

You'll hear that the same time we hear why Wolf 09 isn't on Steam anymore.

Does funstock send keys instantly? Seems to be 44 thereNot if you want to know when they're going to send out keys.

House and weapon building, but I believe there are mods for those. Better character animation, a very low bar.
I wouldn't trade dialogue choices for voiced dialogues.

Same. Which is a shame for them, since I was honestly considering the PS4 release.

Then don't buy it.
The graphics are better, even if they aren't great. New character builder, house/base builder, new missions, new story, etc. etc.
Its Fallout. If you played 3 or New Vegas you kind of know what you are getting. I'm excited about it!
Really? As someone excited for the game I thought it was awesome. I won't try to change your opinion though. I can see why people don't like the game from what they have seen and that's just fine with me.
Was he? That'd be a little bit less cool then. But still cool.
I was really only talking about the trailer. I didnt actually watched any streams whatsoever, so i can get mostly unspoiled into the game.
I still hope that its going to be good, tho i already gave up on hoping for a proper Roleplaying game from the moment they first showed the new talk-menu, but i still think it could be a cool action game.
Maybe they'll do us a surprise and in a couple of minutes we'll find DS2 Definitive in our library....nah.

Considering people keep asking, best for Black Ops 3 is still Funstock ($44, £29) and they will deliver for launch and include Nuketown, which GMG will not.
Jawmuncher

Yeah I don't expect anything, especially with how PR is handling it.

Is GMG not sending out keys until the weekend or something?

I believe they're not guaranteed for launch day from what I've heard on here, Funstock does seem to be.

Well the game takes place in Boston and a lot of the imagery comes from local monuments and such that commemorate the Revolutionary War. Of course, a lot of the dress that people typically associate with "pirates" comes from the same era and looks pretty similar so it's hard to say for sure in this case.

I bought a new 500GB SSD and want to install it later today.
Whats the easiest way to copy my steam games over without having to use some tool?
I wanted to do the following:
1. Create steam folder on the SSD
2. Copy game from HDD steam folder into the SSD steam folder
3. uninstall the game from steam (making it delete the files from the HDD)
4. install the game in steam to the SSD (it should then detect that the files are already there and not download anything)
Is that how you do it?

I know you said you didn't want to use a tool but Paragon's Migrate OS to SSD software makes it so easy its worth the investment.
Edit: Oh, nvm, you are just moving Steam, not the entire OS

Plenty of times, yes.
In 2014, I had several pre-orders where keys were delievered prior to launch to allow for pre-loading.
