Ethan Carter is a pretty cool guy. Eh sends letters and doesn't afraid of anything.
Paying to use the Mercedes in a fantasy game? Yea.
that was joke...
nobody ever laughs at my jokes, I'm going to see myself outside to stand under the rain

I don't think the graphics are a problem, but I'd probably have a problem with the iOS interface.

The problems i had with it was that the english voicework was terrible and I just found myself more drawn in by the 2D versions of the visuals than the 3D DS remake.
But there doesn't really seem to be a bad version of FFIV so if people are enjoying it for the first time through the remake then that's great. It's one of my favorite FF games so the more that play it the merrier.
How's the encounter rate in this version? I remember playing the FFIV completion collection on the PSP and it was abysmally high.

Oh, I can finally sell Bill's Hat through the market. Goes for around 10 most of the time, hmmm.
GAF, Cities In Motion 2 is 75% off in GMG and can anyone push me a bit more to it? I haven't played a city building game in like 10 years, and all I want is a relaxing, sandbox-y modern city building game. From what I understand this is more managing transports than city, though.
No one read my posts
Well, to be fair, that post was 20 pages ago... But thanks for the info. Sounds like it's just as bad as the PSP version was.
I think I'll skip this release. I've played enough FFIV in various forms over the years and it's actually one of my least-liked FF games.
Why are people even recommending games they haven't played?
I already asked this, but it seems nobody cares but me, now there are two of us, oh joy
My golden rule lately has been: 'Do I think I can beat it before it goes on sale (or goes on sale with a greater reduction)?'
If the answer is yes, I'll buy it. Otherwise, I wait it out. It's only way I've kept my backlog from growing any worse.

So. GMG shows that they have Child of Light for 50%. If I click on it, it still shows 14,99€...
Or will that be tomorrow?

So i just realized why I would totally buy Resident Evil: Code Veronica on Steam even though it would be, what, the fourth time i buy it?
Because we could finally have real headshots in CV. That has irked me so much any time ive played the game. I'm sure there would be an mod for it if it came to PC.
so please, capcom, give me CV on PC. I'm stupid enough to jump in again.

I was testing my new xbone controller with Grid 2, then I realized sim-like racing games are fun, so F1 2014(region free hmmm) and Project CARS are now on my radar. Is Grid Autosport just Grid 2 with cockpit view?

Amazon has a stock of Superclocked EVGA 970s in currently, but they look to be $40 more and the consensus is that the cooler is by far the flimsiest of all of the models out right now.
Sucks... I've never had an issue with EVGA cards. I'm eying the ASUS one (out of stock right now), but it looks like its base and boosted clocks are marginally lower than some others, particularly the Gigabyte one.

There are games that seem interesting and all points to them being good?
Just HL2 and Episode One.

I honestly really like my Naga. I guess it would maybe last longer if it were a better brand, but I don't think there are a lot of options for mice with 17 buttons.
Exactly, just like SimCity.
Speaking of recommendations is anyone tempted to do a write up for Final Fantasy XIII? I was debating PMing MRORANGE but I don't want to step on anyone's toes (or essentially put people off it entirely). That and I'm still trimming down my Ryse one.
I'm wonder who might Alejandro Sosa be in this whole twisted affair.

Buying games with keys that I bought with gift cards bought for less than retail make me feel like:
btw, dentist visit was great, next Wednesday for two more canals. Flirty dentist lady gave me twenty painkillers for nothing. Not the first bit of pain.

Pretty sure many of the SimCity issues were known before release, no?
Still, you can make people aware of a future game, but recommending it sounds... I don't know, not quite right. What if it ends up being bad?
Things can change upon release. Aliens: Colonial Marines is a perfect example.
I could, I finished it, if nobody else is willing. The problem with this, we don't know how good/bad port is, so only about a game itself.
Oh wait, you want to write about it!
go ahead
Highlighting an upcoming release and bringing it to the attention of others with what information is currently available is fine in my book (like we do in the OP here). But coming across like a sales pitch or declaring a game good or worth your money before having played it (even console to PC ports) isn't really my cup of tea.

Hahaha I've half started and thought I'd better ask. I know shackles is an FF nut so didn't want to rob him of his chance to shine a Light (hehehe) on it.

Guys. After boring 75 hours I finished Agarest: Generations of War and got the True Ending.
What a boring game that was. Agarest 2 looks far better with an oldschool world-map and a better battle system.

IMO grid autosport felt very boring. especially endurance races. they took forever to complete
I'm trying to stop buying games until I've played more of what I already own.
169 games on steam and I've only actually beaten 25 of them. O_O
I'm still buying new humble bundles though. >_>
What part of an endurance race don't you understand?

Was it boring nearly the entire time? I have to ask why you kept playing it...
It's amazing that there are still people like you out there.
I don't think I have a 5% completion rate. :\

If you're not listening to podcasts or watching tv/yt during endurance races you're doing it wrong.
I've started writing down all the games I've beaten this year to post them in 52-weeks-52-games thread and I'm at over 60. Granted some of those were started last year and I'm of course buying faster than playing but it's an okayish quota imo.

I can count on two hands how many games on steam I've beaten. Thinking it over before I hit submit, I'm pretty sure that is accurate. One day though, one day.

Actually the story-sequences are okay, but the gameplay of the battles are the most boring thing I ever played.
Compared to other SRPGs by NIS, S-E etc. the battle-system of Agarest doesnt offer any variety. You use the same strategy in every battle. And if you put it on auto-battle, the AI is far too dumb to revive party-members...
it should have been made as optional races then like those le mans 24 hour races in the original GRID and not mandatory to progress. i seriously felt like sleeping halfway through those races and in my most recent session i seriously raged because i fucked up 30 seconds before the race ended and used up all my rewinds already.

That only counts games you at least earned one achievement in so it's not that hard to reach 35-40. But I'm struggling to get higher.
