Gambling is more and more expensive. For Humble Monthly, it is $12 and you get 6 games. Here it is £7 and you get 1 game. Maybe a Uplay key.

Paying 7 for a 0.99 on Steam...nope. In before people will find Dark Souls 3 with their first purchase.
Someone wanna try?

For the same price, I can (almost) get Pavilion or Virginia...

Virginia releases in a few hours on Steam.
There is a demo available on the store page.
It's receiving glowing reviews thus far.
I'm excited for it, can always do with more Lynchian games.
It sounds interesting, but what's the gameplay like? I see the words "Adventure," "Cinematic," and "Casual" in the tags, but I don't see "Point-and-click" and I don't see "Puzzle." When I heard "first-person adventure" I was thinking along the lines of Tesla Effect, but now I'm doubtful I'll even get that.
I finished The Bunker.. it's pretty short, about 2 hours long.. there were some collectible achievements I missed, so I might play it again to get those...
the acting, story, cinematography etc. is pretty good but as a game it's OK. It's more like an interactive movie than it is an adventure game.. Contraidiction, for instance, had more agency in where you can go and puzzles to solve via finding things in the environment, etc. Not much of that in The Bunker..
It's pretty entertaining and has a nice atmosphere.. the music is great, but I think it's overpriced at $20...
wait for a sale

But you don't want them. Waste your money on that mystery pack instead
It's not even a pack but a single game.
It's pretty much on par with The Missing, than. But that, at least, was a 1 hour game for like 4€. 20€ seems very overpriced, yeah.

lol no it's much better than the missing both in terms of production and story
grats!
A pack can contain a single item, therefore it's a pack

DS4 users: DS4Windows has been updated to support the new DS4 USB Dongle, and fix exclusivity issues with the latest version of Windows 10. https://github.com/Jays2Kings/DS4Windows/releases
Go to the game's folder. Run setup.exe. make sure to install it to the same folder.
Awesome! Looking forward to the Submariner expansion too

Thanks, that worked. I had to adjust the compatibility settings, though, because it still refused to open, geez.
So I just learned I can add Steam to the Xbox App, launch Rocket League, and record 60fps clips for my console buds to watch. This is new w/ the Win10 Anniversary update, right? This is cool. Wish there was a list of all the games this works with because the Xbox App won't recognize The Witness even though that just released on Xbone.
Thanks for the heads up. I have the game but waited for UI changes.
That's good news! I can now update to anniversary update without it feeling like a downgrade (I hope)
Should be red!
It got ads.
Finished the Bunker. It's alright. Contradiction and Her Story outclass it fairly easily simply because the lead in Bunker is only barely a character, and he doesn't really have much dialogue.
Still, the whole "filmed in a real bunker" thing is cool and leads to some good atmosphere.

I don't notice those since it's always minimized to the system tray. DS4Windows detects an extra controller with FIFA 17 so you're essentially playing against yourself. InputMapper seems to fix that.

Happy Birthday.
That's the Exclusive Mode bug that plagues all of those programs, and there's fixes for all of them, including what prompted the program being posted about in this thread on this page in the first place.

Does anyone know if the Gears Nvidia keys will come with Gears 1, 2, 3 and Judgement for Xbox Back Compat?

Damn, that sucks. Thanks for the answer!

Seems odd for them not to include it. Since to me, it would maybe entice people to get an Xbox one, barely but it's still there.

Dawn of War 2 is kind of eh. It's not un-fun, but it simple didn't hook me.

Not sure if the physical copies of GoW4 come with codes for the back compat games or if they just add them to your account when it detects the game like Ultimate Edition. If they do I might just try to source them from someone since most people probably got them through GoW Ultimate Edition then I can pick up a cheaper copy of 4.
Edit: Actually, Amazon says this
"Purchase and play Gears of War 4 by 23:59 GMT on Saturday, 31 December, 2016 and get the Xbox 360 Gears of War collection, playable on Xbox One. These codes will be delivered via the Xbox messaging system automatically"
So it might actually work the same way as Ultimate did in which case the PC version will come with them but later, which is dumb.

Zubmariner! In the Zee.
I half-agree. I really enjoyed DoW2 and Chaos Rising's campaigns, but the actual gameplay (as seen in multiplayer) isn't my cup of tea at all. Kind of like Warcraft 3's campaign vs. vanilla multiplayer skirmishes.
And yeah DoW3 isn't interesting me at all. The heroes make it all interesting.
DoW 2 > DoW 1 and from what I have seen also > DoW 3 :-(

Do you even get to do something more than leading 4 small squads in small uninspired maps?
'Hide DS4' option fixes that.
Why didn't anybody tell me this beauty was coming out? I didn't even hear about this color.

Pick Dawn of War 2: Retribution. Play with Orks in the campaign. Very fun.
Hngggg I really want some Jolly Ranchers now
Why are they not reasonably priced and readily available in the UK.- Status
