Yeah. The Top 10 tends to be consistent, but beyond that differences begin to appear with regularity.

heh. South East Asia really loves final fantasy then.

another theory i have is that it is probably just a glitch. I had seen this before with thief and wolfenstein the new order. both games disappeared from the top sellers for a few days after being released here

 

[Volimar]

What? You really can't play DA:O with a 360 controller?

 

[lashman]

from the coming soon section ...

... and region-locked right from the get-go (as are yesterday's ancient Sid Meier games) ... I guess it's true - acrtag is being applied by default now ... well - looks like we're completely fucked now

 

[Arthea]

I feel like this post is a fake out. Haha.

But yea a damn shame about the port, I might have bought it earlier.

I haven't even played it yet, just a tad disappointed in myself more than in SE, that I still believe somehow SE would do something right, need to accept reality already (><)

Spoiler

ya, I bought it the moment it appeared on the store

Is it really all that shocking? You're talking about a developer that didn't include controller support in three third-person RPGs/shooters.

What I love about DA: O, is that the PC version is really a PC version, with UI and gameplay designed for PC.

I've heard this as well, it's supposed to be played with a mouse and keyboard, it's not a straight port from console, the UI and gameplay is different on PC.

I still have hope for deus ex: universe

*googles the game*

The concept behind Deus Ex: Universe is to create an ongoing, expanding and connected game world built across a generation of core games.

also - Ryse is available now have fun

(which also, by the way, means it's region-locked now ...)

Soo, anyone knows how much Excel-like is this game?

I own A-Train 8 but I've never tried it as I remember reading here that it has a devious UI.

Yep, DAO was developed for PC first. The console versions came later and the game was actually postponed from March to November to allow the release on all three platforms.

Wow the Borderlands prequel is coming out next week? Seems to be almost 0 hype. A release in a less "crowded" windows would have been better. Well. Still like Borderlands so i'm looking forward to it. Seems like a good candidate for PS+ in a few month.
If the price is right i'm going to grab it on steam for m/kb.

Edit: instant neogaf ad banner for Borderlands prequel. Hype +0,1.

based on counter, 9 more games were greenlit, it was 1172, 1181 today

I have been so out of the loop the post couple of weeks and I still have no WiFi in my new apartment.

- Are there any differences between Definitive Edition and the normal version of Sleeping Dogs?

- Do FFXIII make use of the PS3 cutscenes since it's 60gb?

- What is this arctag? Region locking?

1) Some minute changes I think, biggest change is the DLC is now included.

2) I heard they're 720p in the PC version, a lot of space is from the dual audio.

I don't think you're reading that right? They're saying that a number of games are going to share the same universe.

Which is a pretty weird thing to announce because of course all Deus Ex games are in the same universe.

 

[JaseC]

- What is this arctag? Region locking?

Yeah. It stands for AllowCrossRegionTradingAndGifting and is always disabled. The result is that gift copies of affected games sourced from Eastern Europe, South America and South-east Asia require a VPN to activate, which isn't exactly advisable as it technically falls under the umbrella of using a VPN to skirt region-specific pricing on the Steam Store itself.

 

[Tellaerin]

Shrug, I'm just calling it like I sees it. "No old games except the old games I happen to like!" feels pretty stupid to me.

I think it's more, "No old games except ones that are actually of interest to more than a tiny handful of people."

NOT LIKE THIS

I'm thinking "connected" as in "worldbuilding and plot elements carrying over through multiple games and media", rather than in the "always-online" sense.

And I'm going to keep on telling myself that until reality slaps me in the face. Gotta keep that hope alive...

So, just AUS/EU1/EU2 regions?
Really weird. First time something like that happened.

What I love about DA: O, is that the PC version is really a PC version, with UI and gameplay designed for PC.

It is basically a different game.

When I hear people defend DA2, I often forget that they are probably talking about DA:O on console vs DA2 on console. Which is like "whatever".

DA:I looks very much like a console game with some bones thrown towards old PC gamers.

Speaking of old PC gamers, Colonization (http://store.steampowered.com/app/327400/?snr=1_4_4__106) is legitimetly one of the greatest games of all time. It doesn't have the depth of a full blown Civ, sure. But for some reason I found it even more fun to play. Basically what the modern Civ Revolutions should have been.

I can't agree with you here, CivRev was fun to play with, it's maybe oversimplified, but also it is almost perfect game to get into genre, and it did attract many new people to it. I only wish it was on PC too.
Not to mention that CivRev is much less time consuming than any other Civ in existence.

I wouldn't call Colonization a Civ like game too.

I maybe remember it vaguely, but it played differently than Civ as much as I remember.

It is basically the same thing, just streamlined in different ways and obviously limited to one location. For some reason this seemed to give it more personality, as if you really were colonizing parts of the US (and facing similar challenges, from resource to umm "ethics"), rather than setting up a heap of random cities somewhere.

A bit of charm goes a long, long way when the base is already dead solid.

So just checking on my FFXIII download to see how long it will be done and if it will be ready when I get back in I see something a little odd.

Ignore the low dl speed that's a quirk of RDCing whilst downloading but 3,432,340,736GB/S as the peak speed? That's 3.5 exabytes in a second!

Yeah I noticed that and the original version of Sid Meyer's Pirates! too.

 

[ArjanN]

That doesn't suck, and didn't drag out for years.

Sure, but it's still pretty much a generic shounen anime with really nice animation.

but you see, Civ is all about scope, then again I can't say I remember Colonization too well, it was so long ago, and it wasn't a game I played a lot, unlike Civs, so I might be wrong on this one.
Still don't see how it negates what CivRev tried and succeeded in doing.

That's 3.5 exabytes in a second!

*speechless*

 

[toddhunter]

The C64 version was mindblowing back in the day. Kids today with their 1080p and Japanese audio and clouds and what not.... That doesn't revolutionise gaming.

It had clouds!

So ok yeah, clouds are fair enough.
