Sorry I've been MIA; I'm taking some brutal classes this semester and got a job! @_@

I was wondering where you'd been. That sound rough, but congrats on the job.

On the subject of people who haven't been around lately, I hope A Fish Aficionado isn't banned for much longer.
 
fuck corrosivefrost
fuck Jawmuncher

stupid sensible advice giving bastards >_<

Ok, we're fuckin' NAILING the rules today.

Until what?

Didn't you read the rules? This is the Steam & Nintendo thread. With special love to the 3DS. So it must be 12 hours until the release of some party brawler that I'm already sick of seeing stupid commercials for.

Edit: Speaking of, here's another one. At least people can't say Nintendo isn't going all out with the marketing.

Yeah, China. Canada is CA.

The reason I'm always unsure about that is the great state of California...

Do you also find origami paper animals around your house?

Obscure Heavy Rain reference because blackouts.
 
I'm still unsure whether I should buy Styx: Master of Shadows or not.

I'm in the mood for a stealth game now, this one looks cool, and it's very decently priced, but as always with everything published by Focus Home Interactive, it might be very average.

wow i need to play this game. are there any jump scares or people chasing after u like amnesia etc?
Yes, there is one undead chasing you but you can basically rush through the area and use guide to solve the puzzle at the end. I can't handle this shit and was lucky enough to avoid being "scared" by it. Sort of a downer for me personally that they used such cheap stuff... game atmosphere is extremly tense as is, didn't need it at all.
Location:
In the Mines, after the "Don't go further" sign.

Wee, Smash is officially out in Germany already :p #TagDerDeutschenEinheitSwag
Too bad I don't care about it :x

Btw, somebody opened a thread at the Squenix board regarding the prohibitrunincountries tag of Sleeping Dawgs Definitive. It's basically Dead Rising 3 scenario all over again sigh. No idea why pubs or their lawyers think it's their duty to prohibit the use of the software in Germany. Well anyway, if some fellow German SteamGAFfers want to chime in: http://forums.sleepingdogs.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=5051&p=55816

Sometimes, when you're sleeping, a spider crawls up your nose and digs into your brain, assuming control of your body while you're none the wiser.

It suddenly makes perfect sense! I keep several spiders at my home
(this part is actually true, I'm not kidding for once)
but I was sure they are no mind controlling type. But it explains everything! and I used to blame Jasec, sorry buddy, not anymore.

Are you trying to scare Zkylon (and Copons) out of SteamGAF?

I'm sure I've no idea what you're talking about. *twirls moustache*

why oh why did i spend $18 on CSGO gun skins earlier today :(


ive reached my limit for monthly spending on video games

At this point I feel as though, by the time I finally get back into playing CS online, I'll be the only one using the original skins. :p Using one of my own holds no allure to me at all.

So not only is Planetary Annihilation released by what many called very buggy and incomplete, but not even a mere month since the game is already 50% off, screwing early adopters and those who put their trust into the devs.

1.3 gig rise of the triad update. Why? Who knows!
I really wish more devs would actually use the news section, especially when doing a rather large update like this.

Depends on whether it's behind a glass case or skittering about with wanton abandon.

nah, they freely roam where they want, but that might change seeing as instead of growing into gigantic spiders I can unleash on the world they are mind controlling me into buying more and more gamez.

You should be happy it's 30GB, that means we are getting PS3 version port not Xbox360 one.

I told you before, spiders are cool!

For that game I don't see the point. There are an infinite number of bugs and they will never fix them all. Just assume they fixed a random selection of equally ridiculous broken things.

I woke up today expecting to play some Assassin's Creed III before work, but the Ubi server is still down. It's been almost 24 hours and they haven't even mentioned it.

That's the Uplay seal of quality® though.

New Bundle stars Evolution Bundle (early access) (3.49$/3.19€)

Colossal Kaiju Combat: Kaijuland Battles
Freaking Meatbags
Fancy Skulls
Steam Bandits: Outpost
Infinite Space III: Sea of Stars
Dreaming Sarah

Kaiju Combat? I can feel the storm.

Not sure if I want to buy that bundle though, so I might wait some more.

I will simply pretend that I didn't read this.

On the second of the month? D:

I actually go by the credit card bill so it would reset on the 7th. No idea if it would still be that low by then though. The limit is arbitrary but I follow it because I don't want to over spend too much on video games.

Sounds like someone needs to save up for a new hard drive.
Or play some games so you can, y'know, delete them when you're done. ;)

Grumpy frost is best frost. So cute. Someone ask if.... wait, I'll do it myself....

So is the Planetary Annihilation Digital Deluxe Commander Bundle worth it? What do the commanders do? http://store.steampowered.com/app/321580/

Grumpy frost is payday frost. :p

I will simply pretend that I didn't read this.

On the second of the month? D:

Oh, it's like that, huh? I see how it is...
And just after I was thinking you were pretty fucking awesome for not caring about smash.

Until another bad game comes out.

You should probably wait to see if the EU4 DLC gets an even bigger discount at some point this weekend.

Hmm, maybe your right. I think I'll wait.

Also the amount of dlc for CK2 is ridiculous. As much as I liked CK2, Just buying the stuff I want (major content expansions) is way over my budget.

I might just settle with getting the Vicky2 DLC...
 
So not only is Planetary Annihilation released by what many called very buggy and incomplete, but not even a mere month since the game is already 50% off, screwing early adopters and those who put their trust into the devs.

That sucks for them, but hopefully a lesson was learn: WAIT. HOLD. WAIT & HOLD. Once the game is out, then decide if it's worth your money. Otherwise, you get what you pay for.

The best bit? Buying the game during Early Access was supposed to grant you the following extras:

Theta Commander: Commanders are at the center of your faction in PA. The Theta commander is a unique shell design only available to those who purchase the game in Early Access or pre-purchase the title at a later date. It is a distinguishing symbol of your support.

Soundtrack: The PA Soundtrack is the game&#8217;s score by Howard Mostrom and recorded by a live orchestra. It will be yours via digital download when the game is released.

Desktop Wallpaper: This is the official full release Planetary Annihilation wallpaper and will come in a variety of resolutions for you to choose. (Design to be finalized by release.)

Digital Artbook: From early concept sketches to full renders, this is a compilation of the art and design that went into PA.

But this can't be done because the game has been out of Early Access for a month now and the devs didn't make a post-EA sub, meaning it's impossible to grant the incentives to Early Access buyers without also giving them to those who've bought the game during its post-launch period thus far. If I didn't buy the game through a trader I'd be pressing Valve for a refund.
 
I might just settle with getting the Vicky2 DLC...

If you don't have AHD/HoD I would highly suggest getting those. They make Victoria 2 a much better game to play. It's a much bigger gap over the original game than either of the last two EU4 expansions were (though those are still well worth picking up IMO).

Your first problem is that you actually spent money on gun skins.

also, screw you maty

Well it actually started off with me just buying a few 10 cent gun skins because I had extra wallet funds from cards. I then realized that I tend to use guns with skins on them a lot more often. Eg I had a gun skin for the galil and I would choose to use that gun over something like the AK just because there was a skin on it. So yeah within the past week I spent around $25 to $30 to get a skin for every single gun I have.
