Can someone explain to me how bad was Alien Colonial Marines?..

Some kind soul please link Stump's review on the game since I can't find it, please.

I finished the game in one sitting during the Winter sale and posted my tiny impressions, I remember not too long ago Turfster also finished the game.
 
I'm sorry if u offended you with my post. I guess I'm just bitter about how Gearbox and 2K run their business now. I thought a 25% discount if you own both Borderlands 1 and 2 might be something good for loyal fans you know?

Or a limited time 50% off the season pass if you have B1 & B2.
The fans already got fucked when they bought the seasonpass and still had to pay 10€ for more characters and money for a level-cap raise... ;)

I still dont think its that bad after the big patch. Its just mediocre though.

A 10% discount is par for the course for a full-price game, but it shouldn't have been limited to the 2K weekend.

I just realized the main reason I'm so hyped to be getting so many Alien codes is because I wanted to give one to Corrosivefrost. But I just found out he already got his..


Goddamn it. I still owe him Rise of the Tomb Raider but it won't come out on PC any time soon. And he won't let me spend $60 and get him AC:Unity either.

Arghhh. The man is killing me here.

What am I going to do with all these codes now.

Give them to me? :p

I think you are setting yourself up for some sad times ;)

Maybe The Witcher 3 will be good. 2 fizzled out badly for me but you can only assume they have more budget this time.

Aliens isolation is going to be bad. Not colonial marines bad (Stump did an excellent and lengthy write up about it if you can dig it up), but I think it will be short, basic and completely underwhelming.

Just try to look surprised.

I have faith in CD Projeckt RED. I feel like Witcher 3 is going to be epic.

Stump managed to play a demo of Isolation? :O

After the whole Mass Effect 3/Dragon Age 2 disappointment. Nothing surprises me anymore.

Edit: I misunderstood Todd post. My apology. He meant Colonial Marines not Isolation

Not offended at all. Just didn't agree.

A discount would be great for loyal fans, but I don't think its anything they need or should do. I don't think I'm owed a discount or anything, ya know? If I don't want to pay full price for it(and I don't), then its simply a matter of waiting a bit. I'm sure most of us here are very familiar with doing that! lol

2K did do it, but the promotional only ran for the 2K weekend as opposed to the usual approach of until release.

It's not bad, I finished it and enjoyed it quite a lot, the game has some flaws but it's not the mess some make it seem.

The problem is probably because Aliens is such a loved franchise, and also some of the crap gearbox did with fake gameplay videos.

I just dislike the region locked as well.

IMO they should have done 25% off if they were going to locked it.

Or 10% off if they weren't going to. All the way up to the release date..
Not that I would get it for myself anyway. I'm kinda sick of Borderlands by now. The lack of melee weapons really bothers me and guns customization.

Edit: thanks Todd for digging up that review!

Also I have Nvidia.
Rather go out with a bang I guess..

There's nothing inherently bad in that gif. That enemy type is blind, thus relying on sound alone, and the player wasn't moving/shooting.

I knew that, still had to post it because it looks funny if you are not aware. Yeah spreading misinformation is bad though, I know. :(

I may have missed news about it, but anyway, did Devolver say anything about owners of the original Hatoful Boyfriend on Groupees? Are we entitled to something, or are we left as b---
fuck me I checked and apparently this is yet another racist thing I was about to accidentally say. :'(

Only that one guy that asked nicely apparently.

Keys won't be handed out. The version on Steam is basically a remaster whilst the bundled game is the original release.

kinda surprised that so many people thinks that Borderlands TPS is done by Gearbox when its done by 2K Australia with some help from GB and really not sure why people see it as DLC - imo its too bug for just a DLC (supposedly bigger than BL1 and little smaller than BL2)
- so its petty much the same thing like Batman Akrham Origins or Bioshock 2 (aka "spin off" game by different developer than main series) and compared to BA:O , TPS looks to have much more new ideas

If niceness is what is needed to get it, I'm kinda figuring Monk covered in b-- Hatoful Boyfriend keys.

I expected that. I was thinking of some kind of discount coupons, even though I guess it would be hard enough to give them out to Groupees owners.
 
There was a glitch earlier for AMD so you could get Alien Isolation and two other games of choice (including Sniper Elite 3, Thief, and Murdered: Soul Suspect) for $0.99.

I'm sad I missed it, but on the other hand I might have accidentally spent a few more cents on Thief.

Probably all for the best.

lol just looked it up, what a weird site, damn. :D

Thus far it's claimed that FFXV was confirmed for the PC (it wasn't) and ditto for RDR (it wasn't). Unsurprisingly the site was recently added to GAF's shitlist.

it actually wouldn't be that hard, Groupees could tell them exactly how many people bought that bundle and link it to their profile pages.
