It was a lot harder to move DR3 to my SSD than I thought it would be. Apparently, Steam checks to see if you have free disk space before it checks to see if you have the game files already on your hard drive.
So for a 33 GB game, I basically had to clear out 66 GB of free space on my 120 GB SSD, at least if I wanted to avoid downloading it a second time. It would have been much easier if I had just downloaded it to the SSD in the first place.

You've piqued my interest. About the only thing it seems to be missing is dinosaurs, but that's okay - nobody's perfect.
How is the audio on DR3? That much space must mean 7.1 uncompressed, am I right?
There's a T-rex with missile launchers in the trailer.

Technically, that was Mega Man for PC.
...okay, it goes on the wishlist.
Not sure about surround sound, but the audio folder is 14 GB, so I would assume that's uncompressed.
The Konami games(Castlevania, Contra, TMNT) had really bad DOS ports during that era, but I wasn't aware that Capcom did the same.
Good to know. Thanks!

Has anybody else played a game where a harder difficulty actually made the game easier, because it forced you to become a better player, but at the same time, it still presented an enjoyable challenge? It's hard to explain, but if you've played something like that before, you'd know what I mean.
This is how 1999 was for me in BioShock Infinite, and now it's Hardcore mode in Super Time Force Ultra. It's an absolute blast, I love this game.
On a related note, turns out RB is a Lock Movement button for STFU. I beat the game before I actually figured that out, it would have been so nice to know earlier... Weird that they didn't mention it in the tutorial.

So any tricks to finding a game I bought to gift and chose the option to "put in my inventory for later"?
It shows I purchased it, but it is nowhere to be found.

Ninja Gaiden on Hard Mode for the Original XBOX. I replayed the originally hard as nails first boss(Murai) after I had completed half the game, and it was a cakewalk. It's the kind of game that forces you to become a pro during a playthrough -- and you'll love it. The "Black" version was insanely easy for me as I played the heck out of the original.

Batman: Arkham City is an amazing video game
I have never felt more much like Batman than while I was playing it
In conclusion, it is truly a masterpiece of our time

Nope. I was trying to do one of the Riddler challenges where you have to dive from a high enough distance, it's sort of like one of those "test your strength" things at carnivals.
Turns out that putting it too close to the walled off restricted section might not have been the best idea. Because you can fall through the world if you somehow manage to get over the wall and see the poorly textured ground inside of it and try to land on said ground.

I just finished up Risen 3. Steam says it took 49 hours but the ingame save counter was just under 40 hours. I'm not sure where the discrepancy came in. I guess it's fair to say that the game won me over despite the fact that it only does a few things well.
The best part of the game is definitely the exploration of the 3 major faction islands. They reminded me a lot of the first Risen, with lots of different paths to take as you wander around completing quests. The quests themselves were quite disappointing... they were mostly fetch quests with very little variation and even less originality. I don't think any of them had multiple solutions unless you count speech (intimidation/charming) as alternate paths. There's a general lack of polish with camera issues, getting stuck in walls, dialog chain glitches and things like that... basically the Eurojank effect which you can either tolerate or you can't. The voice acting is just terrible most of the time and the script itself is very average. Although there are a few bright moments when you can't help but smile at some of the ridiculous stuff being said
In the end I don't think I would recommend this game to anyone who isn't a fan of Gothic/Risen in the first place. You have to know what you're getting yourself into because I don't think this game is going to win over many newcomers. Definitely sale material either way.

You could do a giveaway of virtually any game and SteamGAF would want it.
That's true but after wining Unity I'm trying to gauge what people would actually want.

The snow in space must be extra cold
Same happens for most games, honestly. Well, at least in the thread. My activity list still has people taking screenshots of some of the more interesting lines of dialogue.
Depending on how many people on your friend's list are Gaf members, you could always use the most wanted games under the recommended friend activity option.
GTAV or Witcher 3 if I do that.

It's been out for a couple of months through en masse directly. Couldn't stand PvP, but PvE is an alright throwaway.

Next thread title?
So I got to play Speed Runners at PAX and gotta say I love it. Would have picked it up when I got home but scored a key from a giveaway. Will definitely pick it up for the Xbone when it comes out to get 4 player local games going. Every time I saw a group of 4 playing it there was always oohs and ahhs along with laughs. So good!

Ok, so the game runs actually fine at 30fps and troubles only come when unlocking framerate? This is weird and leaves me only to say Capcom didn't give the dev team enough time and resources to work out the kinks and even stabilize the performance at unlocked fps. It is sad but I am still very glad that the game came out at all. I just hope Capcom will patch performance. Otherwise I plan on getting this sometime later. It looks like a lot of fun.
This quote from the 30min mark made me chuckle though. Can you play a game at 30 [fps] and still enjoy it? It's possible. I will always prefer playing games at 60fps but I still find it funny when 30fps is being marked as unplayable. 60 may be much better but 30 is still plenty playable.

I think every possible way a giveaway can be fucked up has happened on that Freedom Cry giveaway lol, this has been like a 48 hour hellish ModBot nightmare.
Sometimes I even enjoy 30FPS games.
So when I play a 60FPS game I'm in awe of how much better it is
TB however much I love him, he openly admits to sticking on the "Video game master race" stereotype, it's funny and I understand why he does it but that is more than likely the reason for comments like that.
Uh... Anyone know this dude?

Seriously. I just finished BBL mode and uh... That was incredible. I took a ton of notes. There are some spoilers if you want to be careful but I tried to make the phone camera out of focus for a majority of them. Just to give an idea of how complex it gets though. 4 sheets of paper, only one was for review notes, the rest were purely to keep track of plot twists.
