I doubt TF2 will ever be ported to Source 2, tbh. CS:GO might, but I'm not really sure - There's not much for it to really gain.I hope Valve doesn't fuck up CS:GO and TF2 transition to Source 2 like Dota. Goddamn the game was broken as fuck.

I don't think press outlets care about anything beyond the clicks, what Microsoft does or doesn't do for PC gaming is immaterial.
Pretty sure the update TF2 devs are working on wants to "improve performance", as the game is bloated beyond belief compared to DOTA 2 and CS: GO. Could that also mean a transition to Source 2?
Amen to that, brother.
I'd personally think no - Porting to a different engine is a lot of work, for Dota 2 it's taken a loooong time, and that game has the majority of Valve's developers working on it, whereas TF2 has mostly been run by somewhat of a skeleton crew in recent years, and it's a much bigger game so it'd not exactly be easier to port.
I guess time will tell, though.
So... Syndicate isn't bad! Who knew!?
The fact that my girlfriend absolutely adored the series; only for it to be ruined by 3, Black Flag didn't grab her attention enough and Unity was dull, the character focused (so far) story of Syndicate and the updated combat system seems to have gotten her interest back completely.
Although she's said "it won't be a Red Dead Redemption or Assassin's Creed 2, Brotherhood or Revelations for me." she's pretty much said it could reach that high in her favourites.
I haven't had a chance to play it yet but I've watched her enjoy the game and I'm sure I will.

You know I'm struggling to find any press outlet that explicitly states Halo 5 is coming to PC. Lots of them saying it's a possibility and directly referencing the DSOG article which is what was said bit anyone with a couple of brain cells to rub together knows that not all possible actions comes to fruition.
is the combat in ass creed syndicate faster/more action oriented now?
I just met
and she seems like a fun character, loving the game so far.

It seems it is NOT coming to PC:

Releasing Halo 5 on PC would be a marketing suicide, right now. Because there are not so many exclusives on ONE, and Halo 5 is for sure the stronger one.
Otherwise, they could release Masterchief Collection...if they want, of course. Since the game is very cheap right now and there's basically no interest in it anymore (people who want to buy it, already done).

I don't have an X1 sadly, but yeah Master Chief Collection could do well on Steam...especially when modders fix any of its remaining issues :V
Exactly. What I'm saying is: MCC ended its life cycle on console, now. So why not spending some money, do a good PC port and selling it again? It would also provide the whole (pretty much) saga to PC players, so in theory they could even buy a One+H5 if they dig really into the franchise.

Lol yeah.
Why can't they give a straight answer already. It's coming later, or it's not ever, that's it.

I've never played Halo before so i'd like to experience the main series.
My friend has an X1 but he's not arsed to buy any games for it XD

I wouldn't be surprised to see Halo 5 or a Halo game next year on PC, but if anyone took that quote as confirmation that a PC version is coming or that one is coming anytime soon is silly. They gotta sell those Xbox's somehow and having even a rumor that their key franchise isn't going to be exclusive a few days before launch made them firmly say it's not coming to PC to save face.

No idea if it's a unique voucher tied to my account or not, but I'm not planning to use it.

I hope Void&Meddler is going to be good, the trailer - especially the music - surely is.

Same guy who said that TR is Xbox exclusive not timed exclusive? Same guy who said that every X1 game is in 1080p on TV?

So when's the next Microsoft press release stating how dedicated they are to PC gaming? They're about due for another one.
To be fair, with Greenberg's track record, it basically confirms that there will be a port

That game will never stop being played. Though a good chunk are now on Diablo 3.

Holy shit. How did this warhammer end times vermintide game fly under the radar? I feel like there was absolutely zero news about this game at e3.
For those who haven't played it yet,its awesome. Think of l4d2 with deeper combat system and some rpg elements sprinkled in such as: weapon upgrades, weapon fusing, cosmetic enhancements, and the ability to equip trinkets which enhance skills.

How do you get tea party simulator from there?

Thanks, I didn't know.
That part of the giveaway has ended - I went there with the same intention some time ago and there was a blurb stating that they ran out of keys for Tea Party Simulator, now that blurb is gone, too.

I need to continue playing but so far it's been a strange and interesting experience, the comparisons with the Souls games aren't completely off-base. Gameplay is way more simpler (not easier) but it got the creepy, desolate atmosphere down.
Over 15000 players right now and 90% positive reviews, I hope it has some legs, will get to it later this weekend.

Sadly expected. MCC is another story though. Pretty old games, more realistic. Although Spencer is against it -_-'
That response though...
Dafuq? Why is this idiot relieved that it gets stuck on fewer platforms and thus less people get to play the game? How do you benefit of that??
ಠ_ಠ
Thought it was bad makeup. Get well soon.
Only contact with Warhammer Universe I ever had, was Space Marine and I learned almost nothing about the lore there. Shame as it sounds pretty cool.
On that, what ever happened to Space Hulk: Deathwing? Haven't heard anything in a long time.
I feel that one part of that lunacy is because those people don't want to lose petty internet arguments about video games.

Considering that GAF would drown in SonyGAF's cum if they'd get their wish and Kojima would go Sony exclusive I've come to the sad conclusion that playing on only one console rots your brain eventually.

So sad. Wouldn't you want a game or franchise you love, to expand and reach more people. So that it gets more recognition and "love" from more players?
I do understand why MS/Sony/Nintendo make exclusive-deals/games. It's a necessary business tactic. But when a customer thinks that way.... sheesh.

Hey now, they are dedicated, just.... not THAT dedicate. You know, like in an open relationship where you didn't inform your partner that you are in an open relationship.

Fun is a finite resource, so every game creates a finite amount of fun, meaning the more people play a game the less fun each one of them can have.
At least I think that's what those people think.

Hopefully I can get it after Christmas. My gaming budget for the rest of the year is tied up in Fallout and Star Wars Battlefront. Definitely need to add it to my wish list.
Hoo boy, this will end well...
