Awesome. If it were 1-2 months from now, the GTX 980 that I didn't order would be shipping too!
Yeah. I actually replied before the guard, his legion of friends and the severed heads party, noticed he was already talking about Assassin's Creed but decided to just leave it in the way it was already written.

can I trade hugs for a copy of Star Citizen?
beep......beep......beep.
I believe the deluxe edition come with all the DLCs.
Steam might possibly see the deluxe edition as the base game + DLCs which is true and it see that you already have the base game. Which prevent you from redeeming it. You probably should have bought the Season Pass instead of the deluxe edition.
@MMBosstones86 Lol you would have to ask someone who has a copy of Star Citizen. I didn't have any, cheddahz had 1 copy and I traded him for it. You might be able to find someone selling it on BST?
All I have left are aliens and some other AMD games.
Are you serious? What the gayness is this...
I'm quite cereal, though I'm sure JaseC would say something similar. Can you get a refund? Or swap it for the Season Pass?
No need for the condescending play-by-play. Conveying tone with text being virtually impossible is why emoticons are a thing.
What Shadow said is correct: Ubi's Uplay subs are set up such that you can't "upgrade" to a nicer edition by purchasing it*. What you need to do is ask Valve to remove your existing licence.
* To the best of my knowledge, AssCreed 2 and PoP: Forgotten Sands are the only two oversights.

Huh? I wasn't being condescending at all, but I can be if you prefer. I was actually agreeing with you.
Make a deal with the devil.
Someone posted that Amazon UK has the best deal right now but I think you canr redeem it on a US Steam account.
Beaten: by a snake.
FFXIII is the best game I have ever played.
I have one myself, but thanks for the offer.
In which case I apologise for the misunderstanding.

Just received my new mechanical keyboard. OMG I'm in love
I don't know whether to be highly skeptical of this statement or cry and give you a full embrace, telling you that its going to be okay Grief.
I loved booting the game up after a stressful day and just enjoy the music and visuals. Lowered expectations made me enjoy the game quite a bit.

Gotta get used to it. Sometimes you will lose soldiers. Just manage your squads in ways where certain people can be expendable
Half of what makes xcom, xcom, is dreading to lose your men. Save scumming is basically depriving you of such an exhausting experience.
I tend not to play xcom because of how taxing it is on my nervous system

I liked it enough to finish it, but it certainly wasn't for the characters/story.
I played the second one too, but that's because it's kind of Pokemon.

What board did you get?
I have been wanting to sidegrade my Das to a newer model, but haven't found anything that satisfies all my requirements. Been looking at the new Das with the brushed aluminum, but I hate the media controls.
My interest is seriously piqued. Tell me more Jase.

I am enjoying myself. I have wanted to play a JRPG for a long time, then this dropped out of no where.
What's funny is Square even uploaded the low-quality cinematics and lower bit-rate music.
What, they gimped the music too? Squeenix is the best company ever.
Well 6 hours in and I've only just got to Chapter 3 of FFXIII. At this pace I'll be finished but mid July next year. That and my framerate just tanked in the new are so time to reign things in a little. Sure is purrdy though.
Yeeeeaaaahhh, I'm somewhat thinking you had trouble typing that with a straight face.

Corsair Vengeance K70 with MX Brown switches.
I love the niose it's making even just typing this out... So good.
I'd even wager it's the best game to be released on PC in October 2014
You need to get yourself a PS3 if you can my friend. So many great JRPGs you could be playing. And if you know Japanese and dont mind doing a bit importing, then it get even better.
I have one myself, but you could always wait like most of us and hope that more JRPG make their way to Steam. Persona 4 would be a great start Atlus. Pls.
True for movies, not true for music.
PS3: CBR 128kbit MP3s
PC: ~128kbit OGGs
OGG is way better than MP3 at handling low bitrate files.

Heh, that's exactly what I'm buying soon too. Just waiting for a good offer.

Haha, aren't you the lucky one?
Vita is better if you are into JRPGs I'd say.
I've never played it before, so I don't really know what I'm saying.
I've been reading that there are some problems with those. Just be on the lookout for any issues and send it back if you need to.
Luckily Isaac isn't coming until November.
I bought a PS3 late last year and I have amassed just about every good game on the system.
I was either going to play Valkyria Chronicles, Nier, Kingdom Hearts (emulated since I own the PS2 version), or Bravely Default before FFXIII came out.
People in the FFXIII thread implied the PS3 version was using a higher bit-rate.

Yeah, I admit it was quite expensive =/
But I really wanted a mechanical keyboard ^_^
Noted. You just had to ruin my good mood didn't you?
I've heard great praise for it but I'll keep that in mind.

can you guys tell killing floor 2 to release the game plz kthx
I have to disagree with that though. I have a Vita myself and the amount of games that come out per year does not justify purchasing the handheld to play JRPG, especially since there are so few of them compared to PS3.
Till this day, only Persona 4 Golden is a "must play" JRPG from the Vita. In my opinion.
My vita is gathering dust after I finished Persona 4 Golden.

Personally I can't wait till.. Persona 5 and Tales of Zestiria lol

Holy fuck $112? I paid $30 for my Sidewinder x4.
Are mechanical keyboards really worth investing in? I don't think I've ever used one.
AHA-Lambda

Last I heard was end of the year, but that was a while back and they've not indicated so since so who knows?
derExperte

112$? It's 130€ here. And no, objectively it's not worth it or very hard to justify but if you've used one for a while you'll know why people pay more for those.
I tried. They're not listening.

I live in the UK so the price was worse than that =/
Can I just say, still loving it
and I'll end up spending a fortune on a new rig soon anyway...
YES YES YES YES YES YES
switching to a mechanical is probably the best upgrade for any PC owner (alongside with buying an SSD)
edit: if you want to know more, here's the thread.
Not sure how it sounded in the cutscenes, I have the source files extracted from PS3 release. CBR 128kbit for all of them. I can upload a sample if you want, they are just plain MP3 files with custom Square Enix header with looping data.
You should really take anything from that thread with a grain of salt - some of users here are behaving as if FFXIII killed their parents, and are just grasping at straws trying to find something to fault the game for.

Once you expand your squad to 5 members, try to take two snipers on each mission. It's important that you get them the squadshot (squadsight?) ability once they can get it. Get your snipers to high positions and use the rest of your squad to lure them into the snipers' killzones. Your snipers should be doing much of the work, with the rest of the team healing, supressing, rocketing, tasering aliens, rescuing hostages etc...

I did not expect that kind of tea party.
Well, it's still early hours yet, but in few words, I'd liken the stealth system to that of Dishonored with a greater degree of granularity. Yes, the AI (at least on Goblin) is generally unforgiving when it comes to being spotted, but unlike Dishonored -- and like Thief -- environmental cues play an important role when it comes to defining behaviour (e.g. certain guards will notice that torches have been extinguished and will actively patrol them, and particularly curious guards will be more alert if they've reason to suspect you're nearby). Also, props should be given to the level designers as there's a lot of verticality to the maps and each level has its fair share of secret areas that could quite easily be ignored. While the mechanics are sound, the resulting interplay isn't as dynamic as you'd hope, but even so there's a lot to like.
That pressing ESC quits the game entirely unless... reasons is rich. If a Squeenix employee revealed that the port had less than six months in the oven, I'd hardly be shocked.
