Is it still possible to buy Origin titles on the cheap via VPN?

Yeah, but the region-specific pricing on EA's own games is rather poor these days; you're still going to be paying north of $40 for a new release.

Some of these ninty switch threads are ridiculous

 

[Chairmanchuck]

Some of these ninty switch threads are ridiculous

Not as bad as the thousand threads of a PS4 exclusive game we get when its released like:

"I cried playing UC4."
"UC4 is so pretty"
"UC4 MP thread"
"UC4 show off your character thread"
"UC4 help thread"
"UC4 best story ever thread"

or after PS4 Pro announcement all those 4k/HDR threads, TV recommendations, 4k disappointment threads etc.

Thats why I am not sure why Modbot (Stump?) is closing all those threads.

What, you don't think a 40 minute interview with some dude that was in the commercial was worth a thread?

Pshaw!

 

[texhnolyze]

Any good deals on this somewhere? I just have the base game with no DLC.

No clue. I bought it straight from the steam store. I read that you can get them for $12 outside Steam but it's about the same as my regional Steam pricing.

I should make a Switch thread soon..

 

[derFeef]

Hm okay. Then I will wait for a sale on BF1. Really strange that the physical is 12€ less than the Origin Code alone on Amazon.

 

[Baron_Calamity]

Wonder if the Nintendo would allow a Steam streaming app on the Switch? Probably not but is seems like it would be easy to do considering the hardware its based on.

Yup
Also gmg starts their halloween sale today iirc

I wonder if anything good will get a sale or will it be the leagues of youtube low quality jump scare bait?

 

[Tizoc]

Y'all ready for the humble bumble tomorrow?

Wait is manhunt 2 even available on steam
And how bad is manhunt pc compared to bully on pc?

Always ready when there is a new hamble bandle

No you have to buy it from other stores. The game is the weirdest thing. Since it's not even that bad, hell it's not even that good. The controversy around it to make it AO I still don't understand.

What about the manhunt digital bundle sold on amazon?

If the store page mentions Steam DRM then you'll get a Steam key.

1 is steam, the other is not.

 

[Tizoc]

1 is steam, the other is not.

I see thanks for the info

 

[spindoctor]

Rumor has it it starts on the 28th this year.

The Killing Floor 2 devs posted this on the KF2 store page

Get ready for a bloody good time this Halloween with monster-sized discounts for both KILLING FLOOR and KILLING FLOOR 2! The Steam Halloween Sale promotion will begin starting on October 29th at 10AM PDT through November 2nd at 10AM PDT.

SALE DETAILS
- The original KILLING FLOOR and all its associated DLC will be on sale for 75% off!
- KILLING FLOOR 2 will be on sale for 33% off!

Could be they got the date wrong or they're starting their sale a day late (which seems unlikely).

EDIT - or they haven't updated their store page since last year?

It will be glorious when there's no new bundle third time in a row.
Or if it will be some crappy repeat, Uplay 2 or Origin 3.

Glorious...

 

[JaseC]

Valve originally refused to carry AO titles. That's no longer the case, but R* doesn't seem interested in uploading the game to Steam.

I'd be okay with a NeoGeo Bundle repeat, if only because Humble owes previous buyers Steam keys for The Last Blade and Shock Troopers 2 now.

I would be ok with thoses. Neo-geo or sega would be good as well.
Have they ever done an activision bundle?

They had a Sierra bundle not long ago, but that's it.

 

[Large Professor]

Humble is obviously going to do a halloween themed bundle with oxenfree in it.

 

[Corpekata]

Oxenfree seems more like a Humble Monthly game to me.

 

[freshVeggie]

Because it never happened. The historical low is actually 33 Eurobucks (40% off).

Oh lol

 

[Teppic]

Lol.

This needs to be the first response to every single Switch thread:

"UC4 MP thread"

or after PS4 Pro announcement all those 4k/HDR threads, TV recommendations, 4k disappointment threads etc.

Thats why I am not sure why Modbot (Stump?) is closing all those threads.

I think the mods cracking down on Switch threads was in response to the PS4 Pro threads.

Worked for me. Considering getting one eventually. Not had a console since PS2.

Cards don't drop until the game has publicly released. This has been the case for around two years now. Valve caught on to devs and other people with release state override subs selling cards on the market prior to release, hoping to bait "badgers" (my affectionate term for badge collectors) into buying the cards at a high/er price.

Actually, one of the Neptunia games released this year did this. I believe it was Neptunia U and it allowed me to get al the drops before it released.

The Switch will fly off the shelves because of Skyrim.

Todd Howard and Bethesda will save the Switch.

Let that be known to all Nintendo fans.

 

[Gattsu25]

Turning things into puddles of gore with default attacks is what Grim Dawn is all about.

it is gud

Oh yeah, it's hard to describe just how impactful it feels. Love that game

...but what if PS4 and X1 owners already have Skyrim and don't feel like they need to play it on the go? I mean they'd need to buy another copy for one thing.

...and can we be sure that Skyrim will run better on the Switch?

 

[BoosterDuck]

How the hell is the Switch going to fit in people's TV stands? Nintendo should've given the option of making the base side-loading.

and it better use USB type c for charging, no more propriety bullcrap

Think of it as Skyrim being introduced to nintendo only gamers. If such a thing exists.

 

[Tizoc]

I see that not only has Jim jumped on the Switch train but also got inspired by my thread on the Wii U trailer :V

I'd be quite impressed if it manages to sell over a million copies :V

Don't know how it will run but it looked pretty good in that trailer. The TV version looked like a solid 900p. Handheld is 720p. I think the experience will be a big leap from anything Nintendo fans had with the WiiU or the 3DS in terms of 3rd party.

FROM was also on the list of partners for the Switch. Dark Souls 1 or 3 ain't happening but I think they could put SOTFS on there which would be big as well.

Is there any way GabeN can bribe Nintendo into only giving Monster Hunter console exclusivity?

it's not like anyone outside Japan plays MH anyways, so PC's are a non-factor

China plays MH like crazy.

Thats why MHO is made by Tencent and Capcom for the chinese market.

Still too much to get F4 for me.

50% is the new 75% for Bethesda. Sigh.

 

[Ludens]

Well, I completed Dex. As I wrote, I really liked it. The atmosphere is good, the story too even if a bit clichè, but the core gameplay is simple and great. Really suggested if you like Deus Ex.
