Hmm. To pre-order or not to pre-order AC syndicate. I should learn from last years mess, but I don't know if I can resist.
Too late, already beat it (22nd game for the year). Shooter 2 was definitely worth the money even at 35% discount.

So this game looks interesting
http://store.steampowered.com/app/391180/?snr=1_7_7_comingsoon_150_2
It's an adventure game with stealth elements made using rpg maker. This is the kind of games I wanted to see being made using that program.

How do I tell if a game is region restricted on Nuuvem? (I'm in the US) I've bought stuff from them in the past, can I still do that?

You can try. It will tell you wether you can do it or not either in the cart menu or after the checkout process. They sadly check the origin of your paypal account for many games nowadays.

It's not, I bought it
Well, JRPG is a very divisive genre. Characters, story, battle system, difficulty balance, secondary quests, grinding can turn easily a person on or off. And more, the overabundance of JRPG games in the PS2 era made a lot of people really picky because there was too much choice that suddendly shrunk in the following generations (I consider console generations because JRPG was pratically a strict console genre).
For what I saw (about 9 hours in two days), Zestiria is consistent: the story flows very smooth, I haven't met yet a single annoying character (and I did quit a lot of JRPG 'cause of annoying characters or uninspired story). The battle system works fine and "grows" along with the rattle of the events with detailed but not intrusive details. I did no grinding and I found the boss battles very fun. There's just a little con I agree with texhnolyze (which loved it anyway), and it's about a not always perfect camera in battles, but there are overall praised JRPGs with a much worse one (and when camera fails, just a little move of your right thumb on the right stick of the pad to fix it).
Obviously I can't know your tastes, and I know it's not cheap at all (since nowadays it's possible to preorder several Steam games for half the price), but if you love JRPGs, I advice you to consider it sooner or later.

Early screens of Roller Coaster World beta from the cummunity hub.
It seems the game need lots of polishing, and I doubt they can sort the issues out in about a month time before release. I hope I'm wrong though.

I guess a quick-buck JRPG-style game (RPGMaker?) was the next logical step.

Consider the FNAF World Tour trailer is majority thumbs up on youtube. I'm pretty sure the fanbase suspects something is up.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Did anyone honestly expect anything different, especially considering how cheap the Fallout 3 Pipboy clock was?
Oh man, just get to lvl 30

Five more slots for Steam friends, what more could a man ask for?
Also remembered, you get a higher chance of card booster packs.

Have they posted any more hints? We're getting down to the wire...
Try it and find out.

Why are you stalking Grief's level?
If anyone is interested I started research on making a portable handheld using RetroPie:
So I managed to snag a few hours to do some research for the handheld and it's going to be a lot harder than I thought it would be
lets list out all the problems I'm facing:
So as I might have mentioned above I am using the raspberry pi, while quite a small device it's still quite thick at just under 1.5cm or so, this isn't bad, but when you consider putting in a screen:
it jumps to 2cm, which is still okay I guess, but with the acrylic sheets and so forth I expect the end result to be 2.5cm thick. Another problem is the screen takes out a good proportion of the GPIO pins to power it
For the controller I didn't want to go down the solder route, due to lack of pins and unfamiliarity with controllers in general, recently I obtained the 8bido a snes clone bluetooth controller.
I'm hoping I could re-wire the battery connectors from the controller to the main board and usb a Bluetooth dongle, it would save a lot of time
So essentially I got rid of the case for testing purposes and I ran into a few problems.
First of all I had no idea what this was:
Still have no idea, but I know it sets off the contact for the board for buttons when pressure is applied. anyone know whet they are called? the other problem was this:
The buttons have different heights and positions, this is goona be tricky to work out using a laser cutter, plus I now have to find a place that can do 1mm acylic for the face buttons to even stick out.
So a lot of research done, don't expect things to sail so quickly as I'm waiting for a few test parts to power the cicruit to arrive and will try and post updates as I can with that.
Overall:
- Sreen has taken all the GPIO ports, can be powereed by 3v-5v and GND, but becomes bulky as you need to displace the Pi
- Going through the Bluetooth route, this may have a maximum of 10% battery hit on the device.
- Button placement is going to be a pain to work out.
Taking into thes things into sonsideration I came up with this design (not final):
L/R buttons are on the side and the device is about 2.5cm thick, 14cm wide and 16cm tall.
More updates coming when they can?

Anyone else who has had their Steam categories messed up? I (wrongly) suspected that this had happened when I got the Valve family and friends pack for the botched Steam controller osx release, but now it has happened for real. A quite large number of the games that I had given a category are now in in the uncategorized pool. This has happened across several of my categories, which are still there.
Should I start worrying that someone has access to my account? Please tell me that someone else is affected by this? The last time I started my desktop computer was monday or thuesday, I believe.
These are some the games in question: (only including installed games, because I am pretty sure most/all of those were categorized)

If your categories were nuked, just wait a while and they'll re-sync and fix themselves. Even if they're all gone, in about ten minutes or so they should automagically reappear. I think it has to due with a local file getting messed up for whatever reason, not 100% sure though.
As an aside, does Steam actually transfer categories to new computers?
