I remember when people seriously told me NMS would change the face of the gaming landscape.

Was that before it had gone multiplat?

It definitely changed the bias towards huge procedurally generated worlds for many I'd say.... just not in a positive way
It looks bad... but the reality might be different. Maybe just feedback digestion.
I bought the game because I am expecting free updates. I hope Sean delivers.
The reality isn't different. They went radio silent because they didn't have the guts to admit they screwed up. It is as simple as this.
It sold really well despite the blowback though, people are obviously into the idea that was sold to them.
However most of what makes No mans sky attractive was already present in stuff like minecraft and a multitude of survival/exploration games. If big pubs try to get a share of that pie, it won't be solely because of NMS

Expect they picked the wrong time to shut up.
Yeah, I'm getting that sometimes on the non-beta client. Usually after the client has crashed while uploading stuff.
Hm, does anyone know how to properly use chat in Big Picture Mode?
Somebody contacted me while I was playing and neither did I receive a notification in-game (I enabled the setting though) nor could I actually see WHO contacted me. I only saw the message count in the main menu but there was no indication who contacted me in the chat tab.
The guy was definitely online and I had a notification on desktop + open chat window (as usual) when I quit BPM.

Anyone remember Blues & Bullets?

It's been over a year and only 2 episodes have been released, I'd call it the next KR0 but there is speculation on Steam forums that development has been dropped =/

They fixed the worst thing about Sonic: He doesn't look like an actual hedgehog.
This is a how a video game character should look:

Sad, looked promising. If only I could get past chapter 1 of episode 1 as that's where it keeps crashing for me.

Well, it is sharp and edgy. Have you tried grabbing a hedgehog? They are hardcore.

Just buy it breh, Gone Guru is already worth the price of admission.
That's a bummer, I really enjoyed episode 1.
Also GER and GE2R patches are out! Good to see.

What are the chances that owners of Modern Warfare get a free copy of the remaster?

Zero. It's Activision.
It's activision that can't ba arsed to sell CoD1 for anything less than 10$

aztek is ok
Yeah, I figured. I was considering buying it for 10 bucks next time it's on sale even though it's one hundred years old and should be 2.50 tops.
That's nice. Although I can't say I've run across any bugs in Resurrection myself. (Except disconnects in multiplayer, but I'm never sure if it's the game or my connection. I don't trust my connection.)
My quick look at We Happy Few: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2zUhng5NsU
Yeah, only "issues" I had were related to Big Picture Mode which isn't configured for GER (no icon, marked as keyboard-only). Merely cosmetic.
Very happy the games are great ports, I hope the next will also show up on PC. Really enjoying my time.

Sounds like they should have grinded for more resources.
Ya know which they also said you didn't need to do and could just walk around a planet without gathering anything. Look how that turned out.

lol the boss theme
Good luck with that. The highest discount Steam has had on CoD games has been what, 67% and that was on Ghosts. Even the older games still only have 50% discounts.
You'll be lucky if they end up selling it at $20 base price. More likely than not, it'll be higher than that, considering they're using the remaster to bolster Infinite's sales instead of trying to maximize individual profit.
The Reddit post says they did it manually, going through their Twitter account and putting the data into Excel.
Switched to Survivor difficulty in Bioshock. Ammo and money conservation is a thing now. I did just get the
so it shouldn't be too bad from now on. Liberal use of the research camera is recommended, I've maxed out most of the enemies allowing increased damage against them.

Looks like it has better collision detection and controls than Sonic Boom
Someone wanna do a split on Bundlestars LEGO pick and mix? I only want LEGO Marvel's Avengers

Damn good stuff, sir. The preview footage I've seen looks wonderfully bleak.
I saw a streamer I follow playing it and it looks really fun, even though it was maxing out his CPU when he was playing lol.
SONIC BOOM
pc release when
SONIC BOOM
I've been using that in Bioshock and it sucks that it doesn't register at point blank range.
You know, I might drop it back to Hard but turn-off vita chambers.

Another killer bundle from Indiegala as the Sextember Manga bundle delivers
No, they got in trouble when they reached a point where they fully knew these features weren't going to materialize but chose to keep quiet and sell their game on false pretense and to deceive everybody. A deception that is STILL ON GOING via their 'gameplay trailer' still being used as promotion on Steam.
And i hate that excuse of 'we aren't talking cause we are knee-deep in working on the game'. You can spare an hour to write a detailed blog spot. You can spare time on Saturday and Sunday in order to reach out to people and make things right.

Did that guy with the top hat say the bunker wasn't good? Or was I confusing what he said with another game?
