psh i don't have the luxury of bringing someone down with me. I normally just flat out die. I got so upset the other day cause I sneaked up on a guy from behind and not only was I shooting at him first on the back but the dude turns around and kills me first, he ended up having 12 hp after I died. straight up rage quit after that bs
You gotta aim for the head bro, even if you manage to sneak up on someone. If not. Aim for the chest and spray. Remember to pull down to compensate for the recoil.
Bad moves happens all the time in CSGO. Don't rage quit over it. Learn from it and keep playing. I've been last on the team many times with 2-3 kills but I never quit before.
Christ, that was a long time away from GAF. Having a small mid-life crisis, project completions and joining a gym with a 1 year upfront payment has kept me away from you guys.
But at least DR3 doesn't crash on me for the 4 hours I played of it, which is nice.
So... what happened for the entire week I was gone?

That free pvz warfare weekend was just too tempting.

Some Milamber approved games got confirmed for Steam...I forgot what they are though...
I just got my first nice ssd, i've been using a 40 gig intel SSD for w8.1 and its worked just fine, but i just got a killer deal on a 240 gig pny xlr8 ssd. Im about to clone my 40 gig to the 240, and was thinking of installing my steam games to the 240 gig ssd this time rather then my 2tb sata hdd. Is that going to be ok performance wise or should i keep them on different partitions?
Accidentally took a game I already had. Here's the game from my good man xeris :

They're pretty much owning GMG at the moment. If only they provided Steam keys rather than Tages/Securom on some of their catalog titles I'd be happy.
Edit: Nuuvem has Silent Hill Homecoming for 7.78 USD for those that are interested(anyone???)

Do you guys play CSGO regularly or is it just these game nights I hear about? Casuals or competitive mode?!

GMG is doing a Lego 75% off sale. All Lego games are $4.99 except Lego The Hobbit and Lego The Movie, which are $7.49.

I play almost every day/night. Competitively. Though I do try and jump into a deathmatch or casual to warm up if I'm feeling rusty.

I don't know if I can deal with the swapped controls in this day n age. It's one of those games(King's Field series too) that's begging for a kb/m control method.

I bought Lego Marvel Super Heroes using Playfire Rewards money. Haven't actually played it yet, but it looks really fun.

jesus you guys were getting aliens for 1 dollar and no one sent your boy hero prinny a heads up about it tho? can't believe my bros would do me dirty like that.
Ehh I'm so tempted to buy them all. But I think I can wait for an 80% Winter Sale. Soooooo tempted though.

I just wanna back this up. I've only played a little bit of it, but i've been impressed with the updates, and it really reminds me of an old-school 90's shooter, with a cool magick motif, and plenty of dungeon-crawler elements. Its really worth checking out if any of those things strike your fancy for sure (Ozium is actually the one that got me interested and to buy it)

yea just wait, that marvel heroes game dropped so fast in price
edit: btw whats good with counterstrike and them drops? I bought the game believing in the dream that I'd get some cash out of it from crates, even if it was only enough to break even from my purchase but I've only gotten a crate once and crates can't be THAT rare, I see someone get one nearly every round I play
does the game hate me?Last Baron

I'm tempted on The Hobbit and the movie ones even though the games follow the same general formula and fully completing them fills me with a feeling I can't shower away. I should probably continue hoarding my Playfire cash.

Sometimes the RNG just doesn't love you. I was getting crate drops pretty regularly, but i haven't had a drop in 3 days/14 matches. Sometimes the game just doesn't wanna give.
this makes me sad that i only have $0.15 in my GMG wallet. it just doesn't feel worth working at those playfire rewards

I think someone say you get around 4 cases a month? But completely random. I start keeping track of when I get a drop. And it's seem to be pretty true.
Around 3-5 case drops per month, and 2-3 weapons drop in between. I'm pretty sure I already made more than I spent on this game.

If you have some extra GMG credit from Playfire Rewards, I say go for it. Maybe wait on the 7.49 ones, though, since they'll hit 5 bucks soon enough. I just use my GMG credit on sales like this since it doesn't work with their vouchers anyway.

That new Gage Assault Pack for Payday 2 has really made me get back into playing the game, I've played 6 hours in the last 2 days, all the new guns are awesome and a goddamn tactical sledgehammer called the Ding Dong is too OP.

god dang rng. I wish I could disable seeing what other people get, it just makes me sadder when I don't get anything. I've only ever gotten anything twice. 1 skin for a pretty crappy gun and a crate. When I unlocked the crate it was.... a skin for the same shitty gun that I got the other skin for -_-
I'm so jealous.
Haven't played a Lego game since the first Star Wars one they made. Is all the other games like the first one? Pretty much no penalty for dying, press a on hundreds of object on every level to build something, collect a billion coins?

The newer ones have an open-world to mess around in, I think, but I think it's mostly the same.

Pretty much, but less glitchy, and more funny. Marvel is pretty good.
Found this in my bundle, I was surprised:
Also this should work but I can't guarantee it because it kept getting claimed and then returned.

Personal rankings, for reference: DR1 >> 2 >>>>>> 3.
Dead Rising 1 is head-and-shoulders above the other iterations. Clunky, but a unique experience and it (unexpectedly) still holds up visually. Also legitimately difficult on a fresh save. 2 remained faithful to the formula and up until the final act it was close to being as enjoyable... but it became easier, it started getting a tad bit too self-aware with its humor and Capcom Vancouver was too fascinated by throwing more zombies at everything. Still a distinctive game, though. 3 on the other hand takes the zombie horde aspect too far, same can be said about the sheer number of toys at your disposal, some of its welcome conveniences are lead astray by other gameplay tweaks and it essentially shuns its roots to mimic Ubisoft's bloated open-world design template. It's like a more extreme version of the Case West DLC for 2 while just as forgettable.
I can't really comment on the Super Ultra DLC, but at first glance it doesn't appear as something I'd bother with for more than half an hour.
Nick's boss could've been okay by virtue of her being portrayed as a strong female character. Or at least what can pass as such in Dead Rising 3. Too bad her personality is that of a snarky bitch even towards Nick if she isn't busy chastizing a group of people, repeatedly telling him off post-cutscene if you so much as linger around to explore a room for 10 seconds instead of heading out for the next mission post-haste. It's aggrivating.I disagree with you vehemently. That 'dumb' NPC interaction? It's awesome. And also I like the boss person.
Also, just so we're clear: I don't necessarily mind "dumb" NPC interactions. Feisty personalities damn near starting a mutiny in DR1, or that instance where you could bail out a survivor who was drunk out of his mind? Fantastic. The oblivious granny in a toystore in DR2, or some spunky black lady congratulating me with "not bad for a little white boy!" after I leveled up? Sure, that warranted some sudden laughs! DR3's NPC's on the flipside just keep rambling for the sake of talking - regularly by stating the obvious or beating you over the head with their presence, as if the game wasn't grating enough with that already - or to uphold this obnoxious "oh shit / oh crap / oh man / oh god" panic moment for fake urgency, and rarely does one NPC stand out from the other since so far they're all so forgettable in what they do or say. The game itself also hardly cares for them anymore with its so-called streamlined improvements by exclusively utilizing them as a tool for even more lengthy or braindead (with pieces of the 'puzzle' staring directly at you) fetchquests.
It all just feels so very flat in 3, even if all Dead Rising games had their overt stereotypes.
If they were mechanical distractions with any kind of substance, then I may have been so inclined to agree. Instead, they're scattered about everywhere while simultaneously not well hidden, in-game notifications about them existing re-appear very frequently for the first two - three hours and they primarily function as carrot-on-a-stick temptations as you're heading to the next mission. "Okay I have to find this story related perso- wait, one of the abundant blueprints beckons to me! And a Frank statue with no purpose! And a propaganda speaker begging to be destroyed!" It's the definition of busybody work.
I shouldn't be actively telling myself over and over again that they're nothing more than pointless fluff on the way to advancing a campaign objective. It breaks immersion if I have to remind myself to ignore these elements.

There are actual official EA servers up? I wonder if Allied Assault still has people playing.
It does look interesting. As do the Harry Potter ones. I'm just sad that they haven't put any effort into the gameplay of their games. The presentation looks good, but I don't think I will enjoy playing it.

Also acceptable, but not as high on my list as The Evil Within.
Maybe he should just do the status quo Dead Rising 3, Witcher 3, or Divinity:OS.
Either way, I probably wouldn't even bother entering or would miss the raffle now that I'm less aware of what goes on in here... but if he did one of the 3 I listed above, at least I won't feel like I'd missed something if I miss it or end up losing.
While we are in agreement on the game, we are definitely at odds over the whole Mik fiasco.
Bundle junk giveaways too quiet. So have these! Good luck!
