Support NeoGAF

[AHA-Lambda]

I'm finally home from my business trip 3 trains and many hours later, and a sad realisation hits me:
I'm get a career now, I can afford loads more games, but I c play them all anymore.

Feels bad man

Goddamn you guys need to go see John Wick. So good! Best Keanu Reeves movie since the Matrix.

(Though personally I liked Constantine a lot)

If you like a badass rampage/revenge movie. This is it. Probably my vote for underrated movie of the year. Why underrated even though it has 85% on rottentomatoes? Because movies like Guardians of the Galaxy probably got more money and press attention while this might slip under the crack.

Its like the Dishonored of movies for this year. Do yourself a favor and go see it.

Damn, get me hyped here, I love Keanu! XD

 

[TheLetdown]

Well, that is a thing---I too like to see things be as bombastic about what they have going for it in their respective niches. Over the top action is best action, dark noir rumblings need not have slices of out of place levity just to appeal to a broader base, and so on.

But here, with this one, a bit of whimsy set on a non-standard backdrop has every indication of being "their thing" from the start. Dungeonmans is violent whimsy incarnate and should be wonderful once it gets out of Early Access to join the likes of this! The token "trying a bit hard there" stuff that does manifest in a great many other things just doesn't at all jump out to me as being present here. This just seems like a good time, and poking in the Discussion thread, it seems the dev team definitely plans to be active on post release support----absolutely essential when it comes to Roguelikes as that drive/ambition flowing onward is key to becoming a classic.

On board TWICE.

I'm all for whimsy. I think it's also something drastically missing from most art.

My main issue is with this non-committal status that's cropped up where people have taken whimsy as an exit strategy. Where something wants to be what it wants to be, but wants to excuse itself from the flak that comes with it. ("Hey, we were just emulating this and, well, this also has those issues and isn't that part of the charm?")

 

[DocSeuss]

oh, yeah. Release Date: Oct 23, 2014

;0

So it's out of EA then? It hit in August but was Early Access.

 

[inky]

lets stream it and find out

Holding 30+ steady... not bad.

 

[MMBosstones86]

yes. yes you should

new carpet man.

The amount of bodily fluids I witnessed tearing up the old shit was the stuff of nightmares.

 

[abracadaver]

BernardoOne where are the BlazeRush impressions?

 

[Grief.exe]

WHOA!!!!!!!!! Revolver 360 made it to Steam and no one is causing a ruckus? This is huge man.

Go on. What is the game about?

Does anyone else not really bother with DLC?
For me the main game is just about all the content I need. Only time I go in for DLC is if its a game I really like or it's something really story worthy/ fan pleasing.

Since I noticed a lot of people here tend to want the complete or nothing.

In my experience, DLC is rarely compelling content. From seems to be always at the top for great DLC, but I have ignored the content for the majority of the generation.

Actually the Killer Is Dead thing is really bumming me out, I know I only got to blame my PC but recent failures:

- Killer Is Dead doesn't work
- Evil Within won't run
- Divinity won't run
- Wasteland 2 is like 20-30fps at low
- and some others I might be forgetting right now

all this at the same time when Dark Souls 2 and something like RE:RE are running great and looking great. Oh well.

That's really all over the place, what are your components?

 

[Visualante2]

I hope all these new micromachines games weren't originally designed for iOS.

Not according to the press release. I've been after a Micro Machines like experience on Steam for a while. So this is definitely on the wishlist. At £11.99 with online multiplayer this is a day on perch for me. Hope they do a four pack for say... £39.99.

PC, PS360.

Trailer looks like it has everything I loved about V3.

Cheevos tied to kicking people...?

_____

Really need to get my office up and running so I can join you guys!

You have to have 4 people all with different Hotline Miami masks in the lobby, then you have to complete the heist with those people. I had to kick a bunch of people who didn't have the mask or had the wrong ones. I went about it the best way I could, by unlocking all the other masks myself so I could use whatever the others didn't have, but kicking people sucks as it's really the only way to effectively get the achievement, getting it by chance is just way to random for it to work.

gamefly's horror sale day 5:
75% off Doom 3 & BFG, 50% off Resurrection of Evil
75% off Quake III, Quake 4 and Quake The Offering
50% off Wolfenstein TNO, 75% off Return to Castle Wolfenstein

 

[Gianni Merryman]

How's Saints Row? Thinking of grabbing 3 or 4.

Both are awesome, besides many mantain that SRII is the best game of the series - I haven't tried t out yet -, so I would recommend to you to grab the Ultimate franchise pack that it's 75% off, you cannot go wrong.

...I've been on the receiving end of that before. Thought the host was just being a dickhole.

 

[MRORANGE]

Wooh! 1 One week off from doing work, gonna be trying out some games on steam finally, might try out 'The Bureau' and complete Defense Grid 2

 

[Rapstah]

Saint's Row DLC in general isn't very good. I can't be the only one who feels this way.

UKOCT15OFF should give another 15% off if you're in the UK. Try just OCT15OFF if you're elsewhere.

(In Sweden I get the UK site - with UK-restricted games. Good job!)

Yep.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

Oh shit, I almost missed the Deadly Premonition sale. It was nowhere to be seen on the Steam front page.

Made a thread for it. Swery and DP need all the love they can get.

 

[Phantasmal Repose]

Still up for me.

 

[Turfster]

FORCED is the Humble store weekend deal, 70% off

 

[PetriP-TNT]

That's really all over the place, what are your components?

Mostly shit, I got a laptop running Intel B690 + Geforce 630M + 6GB's RAM. The card is "okayish" for it's value but the CPU is the real joykiller. It was the best thing I could afford year and a half ago and I don't regret getting it + I am planning on building a new setup on December but still it bums me out every now and then

 

[Jadax]

ok so I bought a nexus 7 god knows why...wtf do I do with this? Thought it'd be awesome and all, what a let down!

 

[Omega]

Saint's Row DLC in general isn't very good. I can't be the only one who feels this way.

nope.

Huge fan of the series, prefer it to GTA.

DLC is laughable though. i normally just wait for the GOTY edition of the series because i know it's coming. I might just get SR V on launch though and skip the DLC.

 

[Chariot]

Saint's Row DLC in general isn't very good. I can't be the only one who feels this way.

I liked the DLC with new mini stories. I don't know how I feel about buying them, since I so far bought my Saints Rows as GOTY.

it's generally pretty crap

i bought a ton of it for 3 and regretted most of it

even the ones with story and missions aren't that great tbh

 

[Widdly Scuds]

Saint's Row DLC in general isn't very good. I can't be the only one who feels this way.

I think the mission dlc is slightly disappointing at full price but they're worth it when they're on sale.

 

[Consequence]

Read Twitter and GAF? Emulators? Ebooks?

 

[Jadax]

Yep, I bought it for uni so I don't have to carry my laptop around...but now I'm just sitting here on my bed, laptop 1 hand, nexus other hand - totally not sure what to do.

I loved the space/alien one in 3.

 

[Gianni Merryman]

Saint's Row DLC in general isn't very good. I can't be the only one who feels this way.

I reckon some of my favourite moments in SRIII are from DLC side-missions, if I hadn't played them I think I would have missed out.

 

[derExperte]

Oh yeah.

...I've been on the receiving end of that before. Thought the host was just being a dickhole.

Probably the reason why I can't get into P2 like I did with P1, too much meta-crap, it's impossible to keep up.

Yep, I bought it for uni so I don't have to carry my laptop around...

Good luck with that. 7" tablets are (barely) okay for consuming content but you'll miss your laptop quickly when trying to do anything else. Sorry to say but you should've gone for a Surface or something similar, can you bring/send the Nexus back?

 

[Widdly Scuds]

Is Arkham Oranges+Cold Cold Heart worth $7.50?

 

[Anustart]

Went ahead and grabbed Saints Row 3: Full Package. Had 5.12 in my wallet or I woulda grabbed the collection of both games.

 

[Rhaknar]

Holding 30+ steady... not bad.

did you see when I turned vsync off?

 

[Strazyplus]

yay managed to sort my second gpu, million thanks to DrDoogie for helping me with SLI shit. Quick Mordor test...

I guess you were right afterall Arthea, it IS for bragging

That 636 FPS is from the first few seconds on the benchmark where the benchmark started on a black screen where nothing was actually rendered... sloppy IMO

 

[inky]

did you see when I turned vsync off?

Nope, sorry. Had to leave because my food arrived

 

[Nzyme32]

I don't know why but I have to ask, where is this from? Looks like a hilarious music video, but that just makes me curious about what kind of music it would be haha

I know Shadow of Mordor is "NEXT GEN need 100gb ram" but can you run it on low settings with a GTX 660M? I have an alienware laptop and I can run skyrim and such decently on medium settings, I don't care at all about looks just want to know if I can run it or if I should wait until I rebuild.
