Enhanced Steam says I have $72 in cards to get, but I don't like wrecking my hours played/recently played lists and just thinking of listing thousands of cards... i suppose I should just bite the bullet while there is a glitch though rather than have it take longer without.
Thanks for the recommendation, picked this up in a trade cheap and have played a couple hours. Simpler combat as it's outright trying to recreate that era, but the level design is very good and everything controls well. Definitely going to finish, nice game.

I felt this way too until I realized Steam wrecks time played by itself anyway

It's really good. One of the more enjoyable open world games I have played in quite some time.

It's a good game that's worth playing. I might go back and replay it soon.

I had a lot of fun with it. Some of the medals/achievements aren't really worth it, but the storyline and side missions are solid.

One of my favorite games last gen. You'll definitely get your money's worth.

Yeah I recall most of SteamGAF loved/liked Sleeping Dogs.

It's a great, fun game that is only held back by the lack of a sequel.
Be sure to buy the Monkey King skin for maximum style. It endures as one of the only cosmetic DLCs I've legitimately enjoyed in my gaming career.
it's basically GTAV but interesting

Wow, I wasn't expecting so much recommendations. I'm definitely getting it, then. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

One of my fave from last gen as well. Driving feels so good in the game.

I'll echo the Sleeping Dogs praise, one of the best open world games around, you'll definitely enjoy it.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I dunno guys, I think it just might be best to let Sleeping Dogs lie.

Hah!
Anyway I realized it's your first one, since I remember typing Monster Boy before changing it to Wonder Boy since I thought it was related to the Sega game.

That's what Triad Wars is for.

Speaking of Sleeping Dogs, is the Definitive Edition the real definitive edition?
Or will I be better off with the original? I already have some DLCs.

Sleeping Dogs is great. I really enjoyed it as a whole. Wei Shen is amazing. I still want a sequel.

Haven't played it, only the original, but IIRC Definitive was kind of like Deus Ex: HR's Definitive: plagued by comparatively poorer performance and some issues, and overall not "definitive" at all. Though it did include all of the DLC patched in.
Since it's the only version available now, it's better than nothing. And performance issues are probably less of a problem now due to stronger hardware.

Sleeping Dogs was a great game. A lot of fun.
I downloaded it the other day to play through it again but then noticed it didn't have steam cloud
I'll hold out for a sale someday and just pick up the definitive edition. I think it'll be better to replay it that way instead.
As a matter of fact, Sleeping Dogs Deathinitive Edition is -75% off right now on Steam.
And if you've seen some of Wei Shen's melee combos, you know why it is the true Deathinitive video game.
Still way too much. I remember trading 1 tf2 key for the vanilla version back when trading was for cool.
One of the Amazon review "Skyrim with shotguns" lol
I'm just being a snarky ass, but the game really does deserve all the praise it gets. The rhythm based combat in it is still an all time favorite of mine, even over the Arkham games, and it is one of the few open world games in recent memory where I didn't get tired of after a few hours. Only thing I can't vouch for is the story, because I played it during the weird time in my life where my english still wasn't good enough for me to understand most of what was said, so I skipped all cutscenes and dialogues and just played the game while listening to podcasts.
I've never liked the photography mechanic of the Bioshock games. It's just busy work, and you have to do it on the harder difficulties to even have a shot at killing enemies. (Hard is more or less normal/veteran difficulty in most games)
And the
is pretty shit, at least without the upgrades. The damage is so low considering the rarity/crafting cost of the ammo.
And the

God damn DOOM is pretty, I thought the PS4 version looked good this on some next level shit.
This is why people shouldn't trust Google Translate too much
The reviewer never said the game was boring to him. Here is the correct translation:
"I've played only for about an hour, since i need to sleep now, but i've already got some impressions. I mostly like this game, but i have some issues with it.
1. Optimisation is not perfect. Nothing major, and it's certainly not on the level of the latest Batman, or even Deus Ex, but there are some FPS dips.
2. I'm not far into the story (just left the hospital), but if it continues to stick to the rails it is on right now, i'll be disappointed with this banal plot. I hope for some plot twists later in the game.
3. So far, you can only speak with other characters about only one topic.
4. Generally slow pace. I undertand that this is a feature, but it's somewhat dull."
So, basically, this person liked the game despite some of the issues with it - and i see nothing wrong with giving a positive review on that basis, while still mentioning the issues this game has.

We have a Square Enix executive here.
Sadly it's Pomona and not San Luis Obispo, but it's still a really great university. Just much more annoying to get around in thanks to the 60 Fwy being a nightmare all the time.

I got Overwatch from a friend today but tried to keep it as SteamGAF as possible by only playin the most anime characters in the game.
At least he's probably greenlighting the absolute best mobile action games.

That rhytm based combat looks appealing, I just watched some videos and it seems like it's a lot of fun!
Damn, shit's beautiful.

they definitely should have had the PC demo ready before launch instead of waiting until after (and there's no set time on that so it could end up being a while)...could have helped identify issues that could have been fixed before release

It's a game I revisit every year! It's so fun to change playstyles and alliances every time. It is really an underappreciated gem of a game and still wish obsidian and sega would talk and make either a sequel or spiritual successor (along with binary domain).
Alpha Protocol doesn't get the love it deserves; it's phenomenal. Steven Heck is Nolan North's best character bar none.
Join us in our despair and sorrow of never getting a beta protocol
Not for the time being. None of EA's GOG releases on Steam. The only reason its classic games are on GOG at all is that CDPR agrees to look into making older titles modern OS-friendly in exchange for temporary exclusivity.
