STEAM | October 2014 - Proper PC gamers buy a Wii U and Bayonetta 2

So then we'd have a trichotomy of Direct input games, Xinput games, and Xinput games that have rumble trigger support? No thanks. Just a wireless dongle would be good.

Lol, then why even bother getting an Xbone controller then? Just settle for the old 360 controller.
I bought the xbone controller just for that feature alone

I find pretty much any FPS that originated on the GC to be terrible to control. (Having to hold a shoulder button or something and using the stick to aim, fuck that) Couldn't finish MP2, no idea how I beat the first one when it was released. And I hate scanning, it's so fucking tedious.

But ya like Super Metroid, right? Tell me you like THAT one, at least.

Much smaller deadzones, dpad, and the buttons feel better. The shoulder buttons require some adjustment on the users part, though

Super Metroid was one of the first games I owned. Walked into a K-Mart or Ames or Caldors or one of those with my parents some morning, and in the display case was Super Metroid and that first-person dungeon game with "Beyond" in the title. Chose one and not the other. Played Beyond later, it sucked.

I was one who never could love the Wii Mote. It was good in RE4, but the implementation in Metroid Prime 3 kept me from playing past the first area. I waggle the nunchuck with my left hand, if that means anything.

D-pad and build quality.

Yes, but the triggers impulse is really a nice feature and having two motors idling between my hands when I know they can resurrect any time to immerse me more in the game is just disappointing. Any game that has them on Xbone and then gets released on PC (like Dead Rising 3 ) has those rumble events written within its code. It is just a matter of time until this gets officially supported since official drivers will come sooner or later. We have just to wait

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
If anybody as Of Orcs and Men, is there a way to get the particles setting above medium?

I don't have it, but looking at the pcgamingwiki page they list the location of the config thusly:

%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Of Orcs and Men\graphicconfig.txt

You could see if it has any particle settings.

Let the console players have the MCC, just give us fixed up ports of Halo 1 and 2 on Steam. If they want to be really nice, then give us Halo 3 + ODST.

It just so happens that all I want is Halo 3 and ODST :p

But Halo CE and Halo 2 would be a nice addition to that package. Go big or go home, I say.

LOL, they blacklisted them cos they didn't like Wolfenstein? WUT XD
That's hardly something new. I know RPS has been blacklisted by both EA and... I believe it was Activision? May have been temporary blacklistings (6-12 months I'm told) It's hardly something new. If someone writes a negative review about your game, especially one that's overall, if not largely negative, you blacklist them. All is fair in this cesspit of an industry :p

so does Luther

Luther is better than Alien 3
But nothing is better than Alien 1, though.
Which is 35 years old. Which is fucking... Weird. I've been watching it since I was 6, so about 13 odd years
JK MORE LIKE 6 AM IRITE GUISE
and it's been my favourite movie my entire life, really. That fuckin' Xeno is part of my DNA at this point. Can't help but wonder what might pop out one day!

Xbone wireless dongle and Halo games on steam please.

He brought it up on his own in our Steam chat too. Shit is weird.
It's getting hot in here... ;)
I just wanted to understand *why* the chat was happening! That's all!
What, have you never seen a sexy sheep? With their beautiful
(fuck no it's terrifying)
bahh?

This is random (maybe unnecessary even). I am not able to frequent this board a lot, but this particularly took a larger nosedive than usual as my father ended up in the hospital. It's pretty difficult to handle news like that, especially since I'm overseas, but he's thankfully doing a lot better.

On a lighter note, Shadows of Mordor! I know it takes a big dose of inspiration from Batman and AC, but that Nemesis system makes the game. It has some flaws, but it is fun and that is what counts. I'm having a complete and thorough blast even if I do die from the occasional orc swarm. Anyway, glad to see the thread being crazy active again and submitted a giveaway myself.

Thanks for sharing your story, man. I'm very sorry to hear about your father, but it is great that he is doing better. BTW, that's an excellent game to give away and I hope it finds a good home. Cheers!

I'm pretty sure we can thank Stump for their lack of action, as he shat on the effort from orbit.

That girlfriend is now my wife and GFWL is dead. I win.

Every good story with a happy ending has Where's Wally/Waldo in it.

If anybody as Of Orcs and Men, is there a way to get the particles setting above medium?

Nay, medium is as high as it goes. There simply isn't a higher setting programmed into the game for some reason.
