I bought Fallout: New vegas but didnt had internet at the time since i just moved in, so i decided to use a prepaid UMTS-Surfstick from a friend. The moment i activated it, it immediately started Downloading a 1GB patch that i had do load through the slow and expensive surfstick. I wasted like 40 on prepaid cards for it. 2 days later i was playing the damn thing in offline mode and suddenly i had colors all over the screen, because my graphics card was saying its last goodbye to the world.
So worth it.

Trying another experiment, second one since Close Your Eyes went through Steam. Working on an RPG Maker MV Halloween project, it's a deceptive game that starts off using RPG Maker RTP assets and slowly dissolves into an original horror game (has original art, music, and later in, spritework). But It's been made in a week or two with a few others in a community stream, to see how it fairs as it's a bit hard to advertise without spoiling it, but to be seen: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=542809450

Nothing pleases me re:Manziel more than how horribly he's played since hitting the pros. Turns out he's not all hot shit when he doesn't have the bail-out target in Evans. Same thing is happening with Jameis Winston not having Benjamin for the guaranteed connect.
Meanwhile, I'm a chapter into Tales from the Borderlands. For anyone on the fence, this is not a case of SteamGAF hype; so far, it's the real deal. Snappy writing that doesn't make the easy mistake of dipping into the well of "clever" too often.

Random anecdote... In my country Amazon is having a festival sale and yesterday they were selling Evolve for 25 Rupees (which is about 35-40 cents). So, the game finally found it's correct price somewhere in the world. I'm not sure if it sold out at that price or not.
>if region restrictions didn't exist it'd probably be sold out a lot more quickly. I'm almost inclined to guess that it isn't.
Either way, what a steal.
Yea he sucks. But to be fair most QBs in the league suck. Only like 5 good ones everybody else is trash.
It was a deal here locally, though not nearly as cheap (worked out with discount codes and the £3 credit I had the Moster Race Ed would come to a smidge over £8). Was going to bite but there's fuck all people playing it and truth be told the beta did nothing for me at all. Then again with only 1-2,000 peeps in Titanfall I'm still getting a blast out of it recently.

Chariot, that isn't how things work. This is the same company that expected millions of sales of VC2 on the PSP, in 2010, and decided it isn't worth touching the franchises anymore in the west.

Sweet!
anybody else finds it strange that Capcpom bundle didn't even crack 300K? I thought it will be half a million at least, tbh.
for example Sid Meier and SW bundles were close to half a million and Origin bundle past it as far as I can remember, old THQ bundle was close to million, but that was an exception.
only two years? I feel like I have lifetime worth of RPGs to play (or finish) and new are releasing all the time.

You make it sound like people here often hype bad games.
Didnt the game like, released only a week ago?

Yeah. Game must be really short or something. Shorter than other Telltale games or something. Or maybe this is something that is already completely done and they are going to get out every episode each week.
Which would be a change of pace. Hey at least then it would finally actually feel episodic.

Don't worry the zombies are in the old blood.
I think those #s are decent tbh. Capcom isn't really as popular in the west as some make em out to be. They haven't really been all that relevant for several years now. Especially for pc gamers.

Yeah, I already played TNO/OB - I had just heard that they were a sequel to this game and it just doesn't seem like it right now. (Plus BJ seems like a totally different guy).
I'll have to play Return to Castle Wolfenstein after this one because I seem to be going in reverse order. I've never played Wolf 3D either, just the old Apple II games.

Well every series they're doing is basically already done. I would have a feeling mine craft is taking priority. Taking a whole year or more to finish that one wouldn't be a good idea. Since outside of some earlier projects that have been announced. Only the Minecraft and Michonne chapters seem to be far along.

I thought the Capcom bundle was really strong, so I'm surprised that it sold less than other bundles.
Both $1 and BTA tiers consist mostly of stuff that has been getting high discounts each and every Steam sale.
(I had everything except for ResiRev 2).
Not much in the highest 15 tier as well, who wants SFIV when there's SFV on the horizon. And $15 for a bunch of DLCs for a game I haven't even touched? Not something that screams 'buy me now'.

Yes. Caroline Becker references it during TNO (specifically, the wormhole/portal she got shoved through in the finale).

10 bucks for all of those games is cheaper than any steam sale is ever going to bring them. But I think the case is just a lot of people who wanted those games already owned them.

Not much time left.
PSA: Reminder for people not having seen it. Activate this game Vertiginous Golf via Steam and keep it free forever!
Special Deal only available until tomorrow, so hurry up folks! It has multiplayer/co-op and being free makes it the perfect candidate for Gaf-Game-Nights

That doesn't matter, even with deeper discounts all those games are expensive, so that's not it.
It could be an indication that Capcpom really screwed RE franchise, by changing direction they lost part of fans that were very numerous as far as I can remember and didn't gain new ones enough. Or I'm overthinking it.
It is a strong bundle, yes, except for $15 tier, not sure people ever will jump on dlcs for that price and SF4 alone is not enough.

Yes. Her spine was broken as a result of the injuries she sustained going through it and falling back to the ground.
