Afternoon ladies and gents.. just purchased Amerzone for 60c (coupon!) as game #499... gotta sell some curds but I have no idea what should be the magic 500... depends on how well the market treats me I suppose.

also woke up to the BoI Rebirth trailer and news that it comes out a day after my birthday for the Steams... I know what I'll be doin' then..

Grim Fandango too?

Based November.

IF I ever have kids one of the things I look forward to most is showing them the games I grew up on.

At best, kids today would find the games I grew up on amusingly crude, and poke at them for five minutes or so. At worst they'd see them as a form of psychological torture. :p

Hmm, is JaseC still online? Looks like those 2 rugby games I always fancied buying but were NEVER on sale have disappeared from steam.

If I never played a LEGO game, which one is the best to start with?

Edit: Steam is kinda killing me. I looked at the 15€ price tag for BoI and though "Wow, hoooow much?" -___-
Again, I played 250 hours of the "first" one

The most revered seem to be:

  • MARVEL Super Heroes
  • Batman 2
  • The Hobbit
  • (Personally LOtR + Hobbit)

which will have more staying power isaac rebirth or spelunky hd?
Click to expand...

I think Isaac has more appeal because it has unlocks, progression, and a bit of a narrative. It's also a style of game much less common than platformers. Spelunky is more for the people that want to absolutely master essentially a physical skill.

Same here, and Royale's dumb pricing system doesn't help. I feel like I'm getting cheated if I don't catch the bundle right as it goes live.

Isaac is already the topseller on Steam =) I'm extremely excited about this game, the original is one of my most-played games of all time.

At least with groupees you can buy the greenlight bundles for $1, the debut bundles on Indie Royale are the only ones I skip thanks to the stupid pricing.

And of course there's a game breaking bug in Planetary Annihilation, that hits just as I get my base/planet all set up. Frustrating.

No problem, do you also plan on getting the Season Pass? I think they recently added the last add-on to the game and I've never been a big fan of such paid content. I don't think I can push 60 FPS with that texture pack but I'll be happy with an average of 50FPS with some eye-candy cars! ;)

I pre-bought Dirt Showdown and felt really burned by that game. I also pre-bought Grid 2 for the same result. So, I'll play a few hours this weekend first and see.

Just been chasing them feels from Grid and Dirt 2. And the latest games just don't hold up to those.

Does the release date for Shadow of Mordor keep changing?

Originally it was going to be slightly after the console release, then the Steam listing had October 2nd, now it is showing September 30, which is the same date as the console version. GMG shows October 1st.

Just noticed Isaac has Toothpicks on in two of the store screenshots. I'm assuming that's a hint that they've been buffed heavily! I look forward to actually using them for once.

He's also rocking Umbilical Cord in two shots... Actually finding use for the useless items from the original is going to be the most mindblowing part of this game.

I also finished Dirt Showdown not too long ago, here's what I thought of the game in my small Steam Review:

Let me know what you think from Autosport, I had my fair share of entertainment from Grid 2 as well.

BSOD when quitting the game tho lol

What little I did play of BoI I found to be fairly decent fun, and I'm sure actual controller support would make it much more enjoyable. But when it comes down to it, the game is really nothing special.

The price is laughable, even with the discount. It should be $10, and the loyalty price $5.

What GPU? Also, turn down the setting that says "Full Quality" to 720 or 900. That should give significant FPS boost.

The biggest switch to me is how they have clearly made a lot of previously mutually exclusive items combine in new and crazy ways. My concern though is that with so many items now, too much of the cool stuff will just never show up (it was getting that way with WotL as it was). But we'll see.

It may not be for you, and that's fine. But to call it nothing special is just to stick your head in the sand and ignore obvious reality.

I have yet to play WotL, I own it but have it disabled via the client.. I wanted to 100% vanilla before moving on... might have to change that policy now tho lol...
Click to expand...

I definitely recommend playing Vanilla first to anyone, and overall I probably enjoyed the Vanilla experience better. But if you've gotten a good amount of time in vanilla you may as well go ahead and move into Wrath, it opens up a ton of stuff you'll enjoy.
