LEGO Batman 3 Complete pack - £6.71 / €9.99 / $9.99

Are these games good? I'm tempted but I'm not that familiar with the lego games.

 

[jshackles]

Alright I'm done.

Thanks again, one and all, for doing that. I've got a huge work project I'm having to take care of today but hopefully tomorrow(?) I'll be able to add more stuff that needs translating.

Take comfort in knowing that it is generally considered the most challenging world to master.

That was the second shortcut right? Unlocking the third one is the most fun Good luck

 

[Baron_Calamity]

I think the stunning revelation is that Serious Sam games require a script.

Is it a script in the sense that a grocery list is a script for poop?

Serious Sam 2's script was pretty good.

Done

I think this is only fair to say if you're the type that'd watch Adam West prepare scrambled eggs because he once played Batman.

The gameplay of the Lego series is something you are either on board with or not and no license is really going to improve that.

Serious Sam 2's script was pretty good.

Getting your daily serving of steaming hot bullshit lies in early today, are we?

I'll admit that Serious Sam 2 is the most creative of the series, though.

Its good but rather weak. Lego Batman 2 and Lego Marvel Super Heroes are both way better than this. There is lots of fan service in Lego Batman 3 so thats a plus if you are a dc comics fan.

They are simplistic games. I wouldn't bother unless you're going to be playing a lot of co-op with someone and really enjoy the theme.

You will not learn the game probably when you use the shortcuts

A lot of people seem to think this, but I really disagree. Using the shortcuts is the best way to learn the game at a certain stage, to familiarize yourself with the later worlds that you're not good enough to reach consistently.

Seems like everyone think they started going straight for hell runs as beginners

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

If they ever port Grandia to PC, they should use the superior Saturn version.

i *believe* there might some issues with putting Grandia 1 on other platforms as Grandia was localized internally by Sony's North American branch. They may have to relocalize it or license the localization but i admit im ignorant on who has the rights to localizations and how that whole thing works.

I think the time for Grandia to have hit was before Grandia 2 and not after but hey what do i know about these things, maybe it's better the other way around

Every man or woman with respect for himself/herself does not use shortcuts in Spelunky.

Wasn't the Sega Saturn version in english too? Anyway I grabbed the PSX version and I'm ok with this, at the moment. Maybe this time I'll managed to beat the final boss.

The farthest I have ever gotten in spelunky was funny enough my first time playing the game. Tried a few more times and never got that far. Also subsequently dropped the game from ever being played again.

I played for 90 hours and still haven't beaten hell

So I do kinda suck at this game, but I never used the tunnels!

But you are of course right, the tunnels are a legitimate way to train the worlds

There's, like, nothing relatively fun about any of these games.

Activating the ones i didn't own was kinda fun

Alright, thanks for the info. I'll sleep on it as I still have a few days to make a decision.

I thought they would just fix the original PC port a bit, so at the time bringing Grandia II first was the obvious choice.
I have no clue what's the next Game Arts PC port going to be. Hope it's either Grandia or Ragnarok Odyssey Ace, but I have a feeling it'll be Lunar PSP.

ehh half the charm of those Lunar games came from Working Design's localizations and it's no wonder that the series hasn't been the same since

If it isn't LSSS Complete then frankly they can keep it.

 

[Baron_Calamity]

That was my conclusion as well.

 

[thesaucetastic]

Speaking of Grandia II, with exactly a month on the market, it's sold 24,881 +/- 3,806 according to steam spy.

 

[Dragon1893]

The JSawyer mod and a UI mod are all you need. The bestest FONV experience available.

I had a texture mod installed that made a world of difference to the game's visuals, can't go back to vanilla.
Didn't know about the one linked though, reminds me of the ones that were released for TW1 and TW2 by the game's combat designer in the sense that they aren't official but come from one of the game's designers and represent his uncompromised vision for the game.

 

[bobnowhere]

Looks like the latest Groupees Be Mine, BeMineLE is going to start in about half an hour. No pre-order but the admins suggested it would be priced like a pre-order so $2.50 or so. Contains Brawl.

There is also another coming at the same so that looks particularly junky.

They need to make another bundle worth $5 so I can cash in my groupees coin.

 

[bobnowhere]

They need to make another bundle worth $5 so I can cash in my groupees coin.

I was wondering how the coins work actually. I'm up to $6.24 now, do they give change? If I buy a $1 bundle is it all gone?

totally forgot about the coins, I just use them for the LE bundle should it be good

good questions

 

[madjoki]

Yup, no change.

 

[Eila]

No change.You probably bought the Hello kitty bundle so you have one that's worth $1 and another that's worth $5. And of course you don't get your change back, and you can't purchase several bundles at the same time. You can pay the difference if the bundle costs more than the coin, though.

 

[Teppic]

There's, like, nothing relatively fun about any of these games.

Like most games from Indiegala.

 

[Locust]

Maybe if people waste part of the groupees coins the unspent part gets divided among people who still have it?

 

[Dsyndrome]

D: OS 2 just hit $1.65 million, reached dedicated mod support. Don't know if they're going to hit the final two stretch goals, but I'm happy with those reached and Chris Avellone.

how is mercenary kings?

It's decent enough. It's kind of like a 2D monster hunter but nowhere as good. If you like that sort of thing you might enjoy it.

I always thought i was going to love Mercernart Kings but i got it during that humble bundle and played it for like an hour. Co-op seems pretty integral to enjoyment.

I played it single player and enjoyed it well enough. I did get it "free" from PS+ though so maybe I wouldn't have liked it as much if I had paid for it.

It's about even with the Megaman collection, which came out the same day and is at 25,034 +/- 3,818 units!

Spoiler

I don't know if this is a good thing for either of them

 

[MUnited83]

I recommend the new Be Mine for House of Caravan. Well worth the 3$ the bundle costs.
