Hah. Sorry guys.



Which game did you buy? If I have a spare key you can have it if the re-seller ends up screwing you over.

It's a Gears 4 key, non-nvidia promo.

Thanks man, but it's a pretty expensive key so it's cool.

Edit: Seems OK actually. Think I was over reacting, should get my key tonight.

Gears of War 4's campaign mode might be one of the worst I've played in years. It's probably as bad as Battlefield Hardline; worse than any of the overreaching, later-era Call of Duty games. This mode is so bad, I originally dedicated this review's entire introduction to how much I hate it. I have since calmed down in various ways (soak in the tub, lots of candles, pwning noobs) to give the rest of the game a fair, deserving shake.

I continue to be OK with not having Win10. I liked Gears 1 and 2, even though I've never finished them. (Well I might have finished 2)

Anyone here play both Banner Sagas? I'm about to finish the first, i think, and there's a lot of external things that are almost intentionally force themselves to be annoying, like how coming back to a save I'd have to redo 4 fights and how the renown system just forces early game to take 10x longer, but I am enjoying the game a lot now that story shit is getting crazy. Have they made any big changes in the sequel?

And yet there are more positive reviews than that and some people on GAF say it is really good. One bad review means nothing.

True. But I've become super wary of AAA reviews, actually reviews (both pro and user) in general. I've been disappointed more than not. (Doom was a recent example) And from my experience with prior Gears games, a focus on multiplayer over single wouldn't surprise me.

Is there anything that actually separates this Sister Location from the previous Five Night games? Air vents aside.
 
If it's so good then where's the Mafia 3 iFruit app?

HMMMMmmmmmm!?

well there is a mobile tie-in game...Mafia III: Rivals (edit: beaten)

and yeah...story and presentation wise Mafia III is really good and the small part of the gunplay & driving I was able to try seemed good...the technical issues leave a lot to be desired though

hoping the patch fixes most of the major issues and then they clean the rest of the other things up

Hey SteamGAF now that VR is out for a few months and PSVR is around the corner i noticed something. Is it me or VR games are already starting to look the same?

Again I say VR games are just early on in their design. People are still trying to figure it out and that's why when the ideas that do work and don't fall apart easily (except for Resident Evil 7 it seems), a lot of games flock to it. Early Arcade games were very similar, early PC games were a lot of the same, so on and so forth.

More variety will come. Until then, I really like Until Dawn for PS VR and I'm currently posting through VR desktop theatre mode, which while not needed and I won't use for long, is kinda cool in it's own way.

From what I've heard, the gameplay in Sister Location is actually completely different compared to the other games. Firstly, you're an engineer, and you're going through rooms repairing things, but more so each night your objectives are different and you have to complete objectives instead of wait for daybreak. And the objectives each night are different. I've also heard the last two nights also have huge switch-ups, but don't know what yet.
