They may be some server issues at the moment as I can't buy anything.

That could explain why I can't idle cards with IdleMaster at the moment. It worked fine the past few days, but now it's stuck at "Sorting results based on your settings. Please wait...".

IDK, everything seems to be fine here, then again, remember when back in 2013 (or was it 2012?) I couldn't buy anything on steam for a month nobody was having the same problem. steam, how does it work?

By the way Van Helsing complete is out on the 23rd launching at US$44.99. It combines all three games into one and if you already own I, II and III you get it for free. If you are missing one or more of the games it might turn out more economical to buy the individual parts you need for the full set now.

I don't know if the old games/DLC are staying on steam or not but if you are a collector you might want to keep an eye out just in case.

Double tigers is the most frustrating shit in dark souls 2.

I helped my friend kill them but on my world they are extra jerks for whatever reason.

I just want to be done with this game.

Probably no chance of getting PC versions of the Metal Gear Solid games at this point.
Click to expand...

I'd imagine that's a prime candidate for their new direction because:-

  • Game(s) is already done
  • MGS HD was made by an outsourced company on their tools
  • Build upon momentum of new platform
  • High ROI for small outlay on a long tail platform

Now if we're talking about a new game developed internally I think we can forget that going forward unless Konami licence off their IPs to other publishers/developers/studios who put up their own development costs with Konami either receiving a licencing fee, revenue share or similar. Surprised has happened much in the gaming sector seeing as it's been going on for donkeys years in other entertainment sectors.

Yeah that Konami thing almost seems like non-news entirely. More like business as usual, just add Metal Gear to the IP's that they could outsource for smaller budget games.

Could actually be good news for MGS collection on the PC since that would hardly be AAA budget project.

Well, well, well...


Alight progress at least but I get the feeling getting 2560x1440 out of this game is going to be a struggle (well unless using their highest AA at 1280x720) :(

It's a step in the right direction I guess. I was secretly hoping that they'd have done what I suggested to them. I even send in some honest to god feedback on the Squenix feedback/support thing and even got a reply that at least seemed to have been written by a human and not a robot. I never do that, but it seemed like whoever wrote the hexablog post was so excited about the technical side of it that I felt bad for them.

New case drop in CS:GO.

How do these work? Do I have to just idle CS:GO in the lobby and get cases, do I have to play or even win matches, do they have to be competitive matches or doesn't it matter?

How does FEAR 2 hold up? Loved the 1st but never played any others.

Also how is lego worlds? Have had no interest in minecraft but this is something I could get into

Yeah, except for the facts:

-the collection would be incomplete without MGS4
-if Konami wants to port MGS4 too, a lot of work is required in order to do the port to strip out all PS3 references. Plus, I think a lot of music tracks should be re-licensed, or they can just strip them too.
Not too easy. Also they need to hire a competent studio, we know what they did with SH HD Collection (and in fact MGS HD was done by Bluepoint, that also later fixed ZOE Collection if I remember correctly).
Chances are we get a port running awfully just because Konami wants to milk MGS franchise, they already showed they don't care at all on proposing a good product to their customers in the past...and even in the present, just consider PES.

I sometimes wonder why I bother posting in here at all.

I was going to shoot their community guy a message and point them in the direction of a few MSDN tutorials of how you'd query system resolutions seeing as they have been quite active and there's obviously still a support window in place (for the time being). Though the usual due I get my ultra wide exe hacks from over at WSGF has actually come up with a workaround for Type-0 and 2560x1440 resolutions.
