Yes, you will be able to play it without issues.

Having played Revelations and 5 (partially) with KB+M I think I'll do the same with 6.

Fable came out on 9/14/2004 so in 2 days it will be a decade for some.

Yeah, a Revelations plays pretty fantastic with kb&m. Which makes sense. Gyro was the best way to play the 3DS version, IMO.

Agreed. PC gamers are the worst pushing their shit. I just want to lie in bed while I play Destiny until I fall asleep from the new FPS MMO grind.
Btw, that crosspost confused me. Would make sense to put as a link or some other way that links it back to the other thread.

But SteamGAF is my bros.
he also doesn't like indie games because they are mostly download only and he doesn't believe in that.

Hmm so since re6 complete isn't region locked I'm gonna get my bro and I a copy. I'm expecting the game to be complete shit since re5 was shit but I'm sure we'll get some entertainment from making fun of the game
I'm a bit confused with Disciples III and its editions. There's Renaissance, Resurrection, Reincarnation and Gold edition.
I have Reincarnation. I believe it's a "remake" of the original + expansion (Renaissance + Resurrection), am I correct or is it missing something from the originals? Is there any point getting the Gold edition if I already own Reincarnation?

Well I bought it after watching Dusk Golem play because it looks like some stupid fun and I think you'd have at least that.

Resident Evil 6 is the best TPS ever made and miles better than Resident Evil 5 which while competent, relied far too heavily on Resident Evil 4's base while having very little of the tension or smart pacing. Think I'm finally going to spend more time with the PC version this weekend, been long enough of a break now after spending 80 hours with it on the PS3.
I don't approve when PC gamers do that shit, but pretending that console gamers don't takes a special kind of selective memory. There's a reason people tend to refer to it as "console wars".

Yea I HIGHLY doubt that but I'll find out soon
gonna see if I can buy another game and gift it here as wellChance Hale

but Max Payne 3 tho
Campaign is quite terrible. Mercenaries is top 3 TPS of last gen.
Oh wow, it's even worse than you made it sound in the actual post:
So a bunch of indie developers are supposed to go out and get physical distribution and retail partnerships so that they can cater to this guy. That's totally doable, and they're clearly just leaving money on the table.

So, i really wanna vouch for how good Mega Coin Squad is. Even as a single player game its pretty fun, and is a good training ground for the excellent local multi-player game.
On another note, i may be a bit inibriated, but i just wanted to say i've really dug being around with you guys these past few months, and know it or not, this thread and a lot of the people i talk to through Steam have made a lot of the rougher stuff going on in my life a lot easier to deal with. Even the smallest interactions have been nice, and you guys have been nothing but awesome and welcoming. So thanks Steam-GAF.

As I understand it, you have the best version, and there is no reason for you to get any other.
Renaissance and Resurrection were made first, but were very poorly received for a variety of reasons. Reincarnation is an updated version of both that corrects most of the major complaints players had about the originals.

I love Max Payne 3(have beat the game eight times) but it's pretty simple mechanically. You just throw yourself about and kill hundreds of enemies. Incredible presentation and the best hit reactions in gaming but it's not very complex. RE6 on the other hand combines the best of Capcom's very technical action games with an incredibly diverse portfolio of enemies that require very different tactics to take down. Even the basic j'avo enemies break apart into 5 or 6 different sub-types depending on which parts of their body you remove. The mobility in the game is just unmatched and nothing comes close and just makes fighting a pleasure.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
It would make more sense if it were the opposite. I can understand not buying digital games (I pretty much gave up on the Nintendo digital stuff after my original Wii went tits up) but that sounds a little extreme.

I haven't played enough of RE6 to really say if it's better than MP3, all the gifs/webms I've seen of it are awesome though.

Wouldn't RE6's combat be more about player movement and melee than strictly shooting then? More along the lines of Vanquish than Max Payne 3.

Is Dead Rising 3 Special Edition's steam image a terribly edited version of the original art? How is he holding that sledgehammer?
Man stop linking to those garbage posts here.
RE6 is a competent tps especially if you compare it to what we got last gen and what people praise as being the best games ever. The problem is the uneven campaign and some other bad design decisions and a dumb story, but the story has always been pretty dumb but more subtle in the past.
I find it more fun than RE5, Binary Domain, etc and it has enough content and fun sections especially playing on coop, it also controls better than both of those games.

Absolutely, melee is a huge focus of the game and one of the major things that sets it apart from other shooters. More often than not you use the guns more to set up stun states so you can take out the enemies just melee. It's very different compared to Max Payne 3 or other simple shooters but it's that added depth that makes it more interesting to me. Vanquish has a much more frenzied pace compared to RE6, boosting around is its own pleasure. One of these days I will finish that last challenge map

The thing is, no one was doing that kind of shit, he simply refused to register that there were a lot of outdated and even false views on PC gaming, so now corrections are seen as PC gamers being dicks.

As if the other 3 console communities don't do the exact same thing?
And clearing up misconceptions = not taking no for an answer? Ain't our fault 70% of their reasons in that thread are teenager level justifications.
Stupid people make me mad.
I mean if someone wants to be all about their consumer rights, and are willing to sacrifice in some regards in order to maintain ownership of games (despite the fact that even physical discs are moving away from true ownership at this point), that's their prerogative.
But to try to spin it like Indie games being only available digitally is because they are "choosing" to do so, and that they should criticized for it is ridiculous. The only reason we even have an indie scene at this point is because digital distribution allows them to bypass the massive barriers to entry of distribution pipelines and retail partnerships. You can choose to miss out on indie games for the sake of principles, but that's on you, not the devs.

I'm pretty excited to play Fable: Anniversary. Haven't played the game since around when it came out on the Xbox so I missed the Lost Chapters. Didn't really follow gaming news as much back then so I missed out on all of Peter's nonsense. Loved Fable 2 as well. Fable 3 is one of the few games to really disappoint me though. The room based UI was unbelievably tedious and brought the game's pacing to a halt. And while the first part of the game was a fun, if mediocre continuation of the traditional Fable structure the King/Queen elements were brain-dead simple and so easy to break that the moral choices presented became irreverent.

After I learned to just ignore the dumb people I built my PC and I've been as happy as a clam!
Eh, i think I've beaten fable twice, and I'm looking forward to playing the remaster. It'll be nice after the shitstain that was Fable 3.

I grew up playing both console and PC games so there's never been a real division for me. Have the various consoles, handhelds, and a PC that I upgrade every now and again. Best of all worlds, something worthwhile on every system.
Ignorance about how PCs work is always frustrating but at a certain point I just started ignoring most people. You can explain to someone how easy it is to use one in a traditional couch setting and the most likely response is a quick dismissal or complete nonsense. Perhaps I just need to adjust how I go about it, but many people are set in their ways and thoughts. Which is sadly true about much more than PC gaming.

RE6 may be more complex than most other third person shooters but I didn't find the feedback gratifying at all and most of the combat scenarios were designed in an annoying fashion (in the campaigns). I also found most of the higher tier enemies to be more irritating than entertaining.
Chance Hale

Can't really agree with that, to me Resident Evil 6 has the best hit-reactions outside of Max Payne 3. Shooting an enemy in the head with a weaker gun will cause it to break apart in pieces while more powerful shotguns will remove entire limbs in one blast. Not to mention the top notch animations for all of the melee moves.
