I have joined the 3DS owners. I am now looking to buy all the games i missed over the years :p.

Pokemon X is pretty fun. Any recommendations besides the ones i'm looking for here on the B/ST?

I never see any love for Kid Icarus Uprising, but I highly recommend taking a hard look at that game. It's fantastic.

Has anyone here finished Costume Quest 2 with the Hardcorn achievement? Does it get irritatingly difficult at any point? I've just played an hour or so of the first area and it doesn't seem hard, just makes the battles take a bit longer.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
25% over at GMG if you claim one of these, assuming the game isn't exempt.

Edit: Noooooooooooooooooo.

Is the game even available on GMG? Can't find it

If you love fun and don't hate yourself: Mario 3D Land and Link Between Worlds

Yes, they did an awful job.

An explanation from the modders' website http://www.re4hd.com/ :

The majority of the textures in the game have not been redone. Instead they have been resized to be twice as large as the original textures, and a filter has been applied to smooth the the image. I’m sure this is due to budget and time constraints, which I think are understandable.

Wow... that is seriously lame.
Double texture size +sharpen is not HD at all.

Can't go wrong with any Nintendo and Atlus games.

Shin Megami Tensei IV is one of the best RPGs on the system, and has some of the best music. Etrian Odyssey IV is a great dungeon crawler and a good entry point into the franchise.

How does this compare to Strange Journey?

SJ really made me miserable with the damn difficulty spike.

Yeah, it just takes more time. I never died. It's a bit more important to switch around the other costumes for the rock-paper-scissor system when you're always missing one of them. Just make sure that you never have the same weakness on the other two because that makes it take even longer. So if you meet mostly tech and monster, don't use anything strong against magic but don't let them both be weak against magic either.
 
Steam big picture related question: I've searched on my own and found that others had problems/were not able to initiate or join voice group chats in big picture. Has this ever been addressed? Or am I missing an option? As of now I have to alt tab out, which is annoying as I'm trying to remove the kb/m from regular sessions

People are going to say 3d land let me just go against the flock and say no to that one. I don't mind easy games(and Mario has never been a challenging series) but my god that game is so easy its a snorefest. The special worlds is just Mario's regular difficulty IMO. Now first game to get: smash bros 3ds(so I can give you that good ol' spanking in it), then get Luigi's mansion, Kirby triple deluxe, a link between worlds, and kid Icarus(be warned: KI has awful controls and make your hands hurt after like 1 mission so be sure to get the game new or if used make sure it comes with the stand, don't bother otherwise)

My foils never sell anyway so I don't care :(

This.
Or they're basically worthless.
I have a foil for Samaritan Paradox that waterfalled down without selling for over a month, and has sold for about 10 cents in general, once every like, other week, and there aren't even buy orders for it =p

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.
So with this morning's Indie Gala, this happened:

I guess after a while these "every 100 games" milestones just don't seem like as big a deal as they used to.

How sad would you be if ff15 doesn't come to PC? I'd imagine devastated since all your favorites are ff games :p

Unfortunately, you can't do any kind of group chat in BPM. Gotta alt-tab for it. :/

I'd love to have it on Steam, but I'm not going to be crushed if it doesn't show up there right away
since I have my copy pre-ordered for the PS4

Group voice chat works in BPM provided you're in the chat room of a Steam Community group. It's still not as robust as what you get with the desktop mode.

Not this again... The regular kind of impromptu group chat rooms that people mean when they say 'group chat' don't work in BPM.
