so originally i was planning on playing Killer is Dead after I beat Korra but since my bro got me bayo 2 a few days ago I decided to go with a different genre that way I don't overdue it with the action games(since I'm currently playing bayo 1 for the first time and I'll be moving to the 2nd afterwords) and decided to go with a game that I bought nearly a year ago and has been installed on my computer since purchase but never even booted up once; Civ 5. I played nearly 2 hours of it without even realizing it. O.O really enjoying it. I mean like I barely know what I'm doing, but its fun. it gave me a small world tho and I didn't realize that till after I invested in navel exploration.... theres like no land on the other side for me to take advantage of it... ah well, still fun.

if you are on nvidia, go to the control panel, go to 3d settings and change physx to CPU

that fixed the crashes for me yesterday. today, after the patch, I turned off the new nvidia option (I forget the name) in the options and it fixed, I dont need to change the physx to the cpu anymore

It's a new day.

That game is the bane of my free time. I remembered playing it before around 10PM thinking I'll stop before midnight but I ended up playing it until.... 5AM the next morning. I sure looked groggy and sleepy for class the next day.

There's been a few new details in the CAG thread. (Not sure if they've been mentioned here yet):
- Blazblue is pretty much confirmed, most likely the old Calamity Trigger PC port. World End Economica is another likely candidate.
- Apparently, a few weeks ago, they were planning to do an Asia-themed bundle, but those plans fell through, and the games from that were rolled into this Doujin bundle.
- The preorder page should be up soon. The preorder price will be $2.

Fake Edit: it's up!

Interested in it for Blazblue, but I've never bought from there before. What's the purpose of preordering? Does the price shoot up once it's live?

So BlazBlue is confirmed for this Doujin bundle? Anything else?

I never play a single BlazBlue game before. Time to give it a try.

Edit: Wow the Build A Greenlight 12 Bundle is so disappointing, not a single Steam key. :( Why did I even bother...

At least I got The Last Door from The Bundle of the Damned 3.

It usually has different tiers like the Humble Bundle. Last time they higher tier was 5$.

There was a rumor that World End Econimica Episode 1 would be featured in one of the world bundles, so it might also appear there.

Well then, I'll have to pick one up. Still job hunting, but that is the next priority... or more likely overdraft mediated celebratory employment purchase

There's a fair amount of options out there. jim-jam has posted about his experiences with a Dell Venue 8 Pro which can occasionally be had on offer though normally £240. Lenovo do a couple as either a tablet or combo device in their Miix 2 range from £250-£500 depending on what you go for. Asus also do a straight up 8" Windows tablet with an active digitizer in the Vivotab but they're not on sale here yet but can be imported from France or Germany for around £220 plus postage and customs charges.

There are lots and lots of options but as for Stream streaming, as long as your host is up to it they should all be more than capable.

Oh boy. You'll enter one of the most complex, hard to master fighting game series today. I have been casually playing the game but I still get my ass whipped by others.

I still think Blazblue sounds completely out of place in a doujin bundle.

I hope World End Economica is in it.

It was mentioned somewhere that Blazblue would be in a bundle. It is my understanding that people think this bundle is the one, but it sounds wrong to me.

Someone here also mentioned that a Clash of the World: Asia bundle had been planned, but apparently that fell through, and the games they'd lined up for it were being rolled into the upcoming Doujin bundle. In light of that, Blazblue doesn't sound too farfetched.

They tweeted to some dev asking if he's interested in joining a bundle and mentioned it's a Japanese-themed bundle with BlazBlue in it. Didn't mention exactly a doujin bundle, but there have been rumors of non-doujin Japan or Asia bundle getting scrapped and games moved to others. So dunno.

Bomb diggity, just the RPG I needed during my 2 weeks surgical recovery.

Calling all cars calling all cars, I'll be looking for 5 intrepid adventurers to journey with me through the harrowing depths of the Dale's deepest darkest tombs starting Friday evening after release. PM me to join up with IWD-GAF today! EDIT: In my narcotics fueled post-operative stupor I forgot that this is the same time as Thursday night football and my Saints are playing. So I've push this back a day (also since there doesn't seem to be much interest yet anyway)

Well it had online multi once before it came to Steam but I'm sure if Aksys left GFWL in there would be bitching about that instead. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

One thing that is always missing from these research figures is their sample size and other key demographics that paint a much more accurate picture.

Yeah, those sum it up too. It's somehow even more expensive than buying the physical minifigure sets >_>

Why does it have free to play in the genre if you have to pay $25 just to get the game?
Click to expand...

I think it's a miscommunication on their end. It technically is, from what I've found, free to play in browser, and on Android and iOS. It looks like the Steam version isn't, though.

There's that creepy anime fighting game, Vanguard Princess. It's supposed to have online play at a later date though, at least I think so.

It's goofy, but aside from the big releases like SF and KOF I already know that I'm just going to muck around with fighting games locally. So I'm ok with an old, offline version as long as it's bundle cheap.
