So I caved in and bought RE6 just because I played every game in the series. It's not half as bad as expected. But god damn is it bad. What fucks me up most is the weird brightness/gamma situation and the changing menus...who thought that would be great idea.

 

[hardcastlemccormick]

Were you a teenager in the west in the 90s?
That usually plays a big factor in why people like it or not.

I wasn't and I still liked it.

I just think it's a good story told intelligently and non linearly.

 

[Atraveller]

She's a teenage girl. That's practically normal!

Unlikable protagonist = fail on writers' part.

 

[Turfster]

Man, nobody wants these Samaritan Paradox foils.
It's been 3 weeks and one of them still doesn't even have a buy order.

I wasn't and I still liked it.

I just think it's a good story told intelligently and non linearly.

Oh, I agree it's a good story well told, it's just that people that didn't like the story but that experienced the time period sometimes get tipped over into liking it after all when they discover all the really accurate stuff, some of which they'd forgotten about.

It's not like the protag is the only character in a fiction though...

Nope, but the others aren't doing so well either. Plus the show's name is Legend of Korra, the center of the show is Korra the Avatar.

Man I want the preorder page.

I like Korra's character >_>;
Need this game's pre-order up too, though most here would be more interested on if it is region locked or not.

Is CoD: Advanced Warfare Region locked by any chance?

It's Activision and CoD, what do you think? . It's region locked up the wazoo in every way.

 

[BlackRainbowFT]

There's only one chapter in which you can miss phone calls, and is Chapter 6.

You need to a sq called "The Hunted". You will receive the fisrt phone call as usually, but to trigger other two calls you need to travel near the location in which survivors are, just check here:

to discover where they are.

Dang. Thanks for the tip. I'm just at the beginning of Chapter 6.

the season pass isn't, though ... not that this changes much - it's still around $23-25 even from Russia

 

[Deques]

Is Lost Planet 3 region locked too? I am considering to get it from a trader...

Buying CoD maps on PC is waste of money anyway, they'll be dead within weeks.

 

[Evrain]

Hence why they started adding a zombies episode in each pack.
The added content for ghosts was both useless AND an insane lot though

 

[Tizoc]

Tsk, well will wait for a miraculous pricing error in that game's case then...

 

[JaseC]

Nope. The RU/CIS store page says otherwise, but it lies.

Star Wars Steamplay Pack at Newegg for 12.5$
(KOTOR, Jedi Academy, Jedi Outcast, The Force Unleashed)

Silly question, are these

Spoiler

Steamworks

Steam Play and Windows compatible?

 

[fantomena]

EA must be loving the KoA money they get from the sale and yet they refuse to release their newest titles on Steam.

[JaseC]

Yes. Black Ops is literally the one and only Mac game on Steam that isn't SteamPlay, although it is included in CoD's "Definitive Collection" and "Black Ops Franchise" bundles.

I am waiting for Garden Warfare to hit $10 come the Winter Sale.

BTW does the game have local co-op like 2 players can play together split-screen like?

Isn't specifically the Steam version self published? That's why EA could discount Origin redeemed copies all they wanted

Seems like 38 Studios is the one publishing on Steam if not EA.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

I just finished reading the Kinetic Visual Novel Shan Gui. It was a nice little story and I have to say that the VAs were quite good. Dont understand how one review says they are bad, but I think both of them fit their roles.

Maybe for 4,99$ its a bit too high for about 40 minutes of reading, but I think the art and music was quite good and the story was, even though quite normal, not that bad.

 

[Dr Dogg]

Speaking of DR3, I haven't met a single Psycho since the ch.0 Chinese guy, and I'm in ch.3.

Yeah they're a bit thin on the ground this time. There's 7 who are representing the 7 deadly sins and I think there's at least one more tied to the story but I'm only on the end of chapter 5 and I've faced 6 of them already (one was tied to a story event the other 5 were side missions). Though their lack in numbers is more than made up for in their cookiness (if that is even a word).

EA took control of the app recently, who knows what the revenue split is like between EA and Rhode Island.

 

[JaseC]

EA being shown as co-publisher is merely a formality as the state of Rhode Island has bigger things to worry about than game distribution. EA doesn't actually see additional revenue; it's just listed as co-publisher because this way all of EA's Steam Partners accounts are granted access to the app. Previously, the matter of the game's Steam listing was overseen by the lawyer overseeing the case, which is why Cheers Tony had such a hard time getting Steam keys and also why the game went on sale once between the closure of 38 Studios and EA taking the reins.

TL;DR: Good Guy EA... presumably because it can buy the IP on the cheap once 38 Studios' debt to the state has been paid.

It was originally but it seems to have been handed over to EA now.

38 Studios is dead.

38 Studios is dead.

I imagine that whatever was left had to talk to the state of Rhode Island to get it back on Steam.

I paid full price in panic thinking it was going to up and disappear. Played a couple of hours, didn't have a clue what was going on, uninstalled it and only returned when I was testing out 21:9 resolutions. I regret nothing *sob*.

Did it ever leave steam? Can't see a gap in its price history although I do see they cheekily bumped up the price of the collection by £10.

Better safe than sorry! I bought the DLC at full price during the Summer Sale of 2012 because of the distinct possibility of the game being pulled. And so began my desire to buy everything.

Hopefully Duck Dynasty comes out on Steam, so JaseC can buy twenty copies of it

[Dr Dogg]

Well I'm surprised people outside this and the GOG thread do actually know how to use ModBot now. Also seem the EU version of Smash is better than what Salsa is playing as it's a whole 385 blocks bigger or in real talk 385 MegaMan's more!

Also this Speedrunners smack talk is only going to end in Dunder destroying the lot of you. I'm half imagining Dunder as Vasquez out of Aliens now "Anytime, anywhere man!"

Man RIPD was movie that should've been good, what a wasted concept. Jeff Bridges needs to go back to doing westerns or boozed up hippies, and I mean that as a compliment.

Are you folks going to stream Speedrunners? I'm traveling and can't play, but I'd like to watch if I happen to be available.

 

[Grief.exe]

I can't decide whether I'm playing Grimrock, Divinity: OS, or Bulletstorm right now. I keep playing one for a bit, then transitioning to the other.

I think it may be better focus on the shortest games first, so Grimrock/Bulletstorm and then sink into D:OS.

 

[dirtywhirlwind]

Nice, been a while since I sold a foil for anything above 1€. And it was only on the market for about 2 days. And it came from a shitty bundle game.

Yeah I'll stream all my matches, just need to get enough players, unless the challengers wanna do 1v1 / 1v2

Wish I could play with you guys, always fun to lose againt you xD

Haha thanks, always fun to win against you too.

 

[iosefe]

Speedrunners really need a team system to allow proper one sided matches. Wherein items will only target the enemy
