Nah, I liked it a lot, and posted about it a lot during the summer sale. The campaign was long and decent, if uneven, and I played Spies and Mercs a lot too - it's actually one of my most-played games on Steam at ~40 hours or so.

It was hard to get used to it at first but I found it quite useful. To me it was better than looking at a bar on the bottom to tell when you're completely in the dark or not. But I can see what you mean.
He's not as amazing as he used to be. Some people has been beating him
but he's still pretty damn tough though.If you can only get 1. I would get Splinter Cell Blacklist.
What an amazing game. I had tons of hype for it. Did not disappoint. The PC version ran well too I think. I only played it on PS3. The story is like a Mission Impossible movie.

I play with him from time to time and he only got better imo, but the other gaf players who are serious about the game got better too. It's balancing itself out.
Planning to, the next time it's on deep sale on Steam (so it can do the actual downloading and updating).
The less I have to leave to Uplay, the better.

I bought the original Theatrhythm used but when I heard about Curtain Call I decided to sell it after playing it for only a few hours. I really liked what I played of the original, but I probably won't pick up Curtain Call on release. I'll definitely pick it up at some point though.
I'm really hoping for a Humble 2spooky Bundle, filled with spooky games and non-spooky halloween-esque games like Claire, Murdered: Soul Suspect, Sunless Sea, etc.
And Haunt the House: Terrortown. That game looks pretty cool.
The patching for Blacklist on Uplay was PS3-levels of excruciating. They could make the service at least tolerable, but just don't care.
you know you want that smash run HYPE
For sure! I've never regretted importing a NA 3DS!

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.

Exactly, so I can understand the confusion, but the posts always have a sentence saying "send a PM to ModBot," so it shouldn't happen
We're all ModBot's alt accounts.
Even you.
The Smash demo?
I'm not as excited as I thought I would be about it. I think I would enjoy the demo more with remappable buttons. I think that's in the main game though, so that's good. Some of the new items are cool, like the fire sword thing.
Opinion on characters: I sort of like Animal Crossing Villager, but not that much. I like playing as Mega Man more than I thought I would. Mario and Link play fine. I still don't like using Pikachu that much.
Urgh....
Been going back and forth about whether or not I should get RE6. I really liked RE4 and RER, and RE6 looks like it has some really awesome shooting mechanics. Campaign looks really mediocre, but mercs looks fun... I enjoyed the demo on PS3 and PC version would be nice since I won't have to worry about framerate issues... UGH
Should I spend 6 bucks on it or just save that money for something else?

Really enjoying Fable Anniversary, game is still incredibly charming and the gameplay holds up a lot better than I was expecting. Some people are having issues with crashes but I haven't had any, Can't say the FXAA is bothering me either, although obviously I'll turn it off with the option becomes available. Running at a steady 60 FPS at 3200x1800

For $6 it's not that bad. And if you really like it and want to finish all 4 campaigns, it will take you more than 20hrs, so it's a lot of game for that price.
If you do pick it up, read this manual (made by gaffer Neiteio) about the game mechanics that are extremely useful and it's not told anywhere in the game.

RE6 is well worth that price.
You get more than enough value for your money. Plus if you don't dig the campaigns. You'll still have all the Mercs maps.
The MP modes aren't needed

If anyone was interested, here are my early impressions of Darkwood
Was debating between Darkwood, Road Not Taken, and Hack N Slash, but after seeing the second gameplay video, I decided to go with Darkwod. Played for little over an hour and I definitely made the right choice. This game is great. The sound design, man, nothing else I've played since perhaps Capsule has had an atmosphere that benefited so much from the sound. The drawn-out screech as you drag a wardrobe over to block an opening. The creek of an opening door. The heft of your swings when you swing. Your panting breath as your stamina drops. The otherworldly moans and guttural sounds out there in the darkness. It adds so much to the tension and tone
The game is weird and eerie and atmospheric and scary. The opening just feels off (in a good way), really sets the mood. Combat is fast but also tense, as you need to be mindful of your stamina and each swing takes time. The attention to detail here is wonderful: the soft flickering of the oven pilot light, your character's animations as he clambers over a fence or readies his weapon, the trail of blood in your wake when you're bleeding from a wound, the daylight fading away as night comes
You feel desperate and alone, barely equipped with a shovel and a few bear traps as the night falls and your single flare sputters out. Pushing furniture in front of doorways and openings, using your meager supplies to barricade windows. This is true survival horror
Haven't explored much and only encountered like two enemies, but everything so far has been very impressive and very promising
... You've made more money off demo codes for a game in one day than I've made off a game I made in 3 months.
Life is totally unfair. =p
RE6 for $6: you can either
A) Don't bother learning the mechanics, laugh/cry your way through RE6's 4 shitty campaigns and say you got your money's worth
or
B) Fall in love with the mechanics, laugh/cry your way through RE6's 4 shitty campaigns, then play Mercs for 10+ hours afterwards because of how much content and variety there is.
Anyway, DmC and Remember Me are both performance champs. I'm downsampling from 1440p on my lowly Radeon 7850 and maintaining a solid 60 fps. I bet some people with better cards could downsample from 4K and maintain 60 fps. They're both UE3 games, so that's expected to an extent, but it's not always a guarantee. But good lord, these two are both smooth as butter and visually interesting and just oh-so-slick.

Buy it nao! You liked the demo, it has awesome shooting mechanics, and that 60 fps are enough reasons for you to jump in.
also about 1 hour left for my giveaway

Nah, pretty sure Shadownet left.
I've actually been playing it the last couple of nights. It is well worth $6, in a dumb fun kind of way. Sometimes you just want dumb fun, so it is good to have in the library.
Now I hate you because you got that game on my perpetually-increasing wishlist. Dammit.
It's the jankiest mechanic in the game. I found it easier to stop moving the left stick (or WASD), then pressing up/W when the attack was going to come. Dodging while moving is difficult, and I was only able to do it on accident.

My god I just finished the 11th episode of the Legend of Korra. I was skeptic but man this series is already better than The Last Airbender. And I loved Aang and the gang. Everything about this show is epic.
I think the more mature setting and conflicts is really well done.
This is getting me so hype for the game.

Also thanks for the Darkwood review Badass. O had a copy of it gifted to me for my birthday but I ended up giving it to a friend because I could always get it later and had so many games to play. I'm glad its not disappointing.
Can't everyone get the demo next week, though? :O
dat gaf sense of community am I right
