Any UK Gaffer wanna gift me some games before todays deals run out? I'll paypal the value.

 

[The_Monk]

I'm not into getting all these Badges and cards but I must admit that I really like the Words in the Sleeping dogs cards.

"Family", "Lotus", "Loyalty".

Might even craft a Badge, since I'm just missing "North" and "Blade".

 

[Toki767]

Disappointing, you should have done a haiku like this for the winner:
No one can top this
This haiku is amazing
Give this guy a game

Spoiler

Do I get a prize for choosing the winner?

I totally wrote him a haiku in the gift.

Here comes a lightning thread.

 

[Fuu]

Nabbing Deadlight (voted for it, already had MotN) and Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition. At a first glance Fallout 3 looks more interesting to me, but from what I heard New Vegas is the better game? That "Fallout 3 is not optimized for Windows 7" warning makes the choice easier too. Still considering FO3 in the future though depending on my experience with NV.

Really want Gunpoint to win, not very interested in Torchlight 2 at the moment and I won't be getting Don't Starve at that price.

I know this post will get buried, but for those who have not yet bought Fallout: New Vegas:

• The Ultimate Edition is $4.99
• The DLC is totally worth it
• If you're still hesitating, you should rethink your life

For those who have not yet played Fallout: New Vegas:

• The essential "fixes bugs but doesn't reinterpret content" mod is MMUE
• The game is built on a shitty Bethesda engine that's prone to crashing on machines with more than one core. This page will mostly fix all that (ctrl+F "iNumHWThreads").
• F5 is quick save, just in case the game still crashes on you.
• Charisma is a dump stat-- spend skill points on the skills it governs instead of raising it (unless you really want the Animal Companion perk, which doesn't do very much).
• There is no wrong way to play or build your character. You'll need to play a few times to see everything, so don't fret about having a "perfect" game.

Thanks for those links but holy crap @ that list of MMUE fixes, it makes the unmodded game sound borderline unplayable. Are all those bugs really common?

 

[RoadHazard]

Well, at €2.49 I'm just gonna have to get New Vegas. Already have Fallout 3, so why not.

 

[cebri.one]

What? Where? Can a European buy it? Can someone help me out if I can't?

Must...complete...steam Ys...Collection...at...reasonable...price!

 

[endresults]

Oh awesome, I love Chest Icon Coaster

 

[ReverseFate]

Is it worth buying Arma 2 now to play DayZ, or should I just wait for the standalone release?

 

[Shambles]

alright last one:

this year no more games
I've 10 dollars in my bank
fine, ill get Torchlight

I will never understand how so many people can live on the raggedy edge like this.

 

[DaBoss]

And you didn't want to share it with the rest of the world? How selfish.

Don't know . I bought it just in case ^^

A mystery YAY. The only thing I can think of is Kerbal cause of the physics.

Maybe it's Cargo Commander.

I might try and go for the Skyrim badge, but I'll probably just sell them off/gift them. I don't have any need for those cosmetic items, really.

 

[Pops Maellard]

Tried the Kerbal Space Program demo, I need it. Didn't budget for it though, so it has to wait.

Little OT but whoever just gifted me To the Moon, my boyfriend accepted it telling me "hey some dude gifted this to you" and didn't write down your name so please let me know who you were so i can thank you.

Last time i let him use my steam to play civ.

Yes I agree fellow GAFfer, I just really like the mood in Sleeping Dogs and might replay it on Steam, again. Skyrim is a Badge I won't never get simply because I do not have it.

Hope you can get the badge if you want it. Good luck

It's Gold Seven RollerCoaster, of course.

So how's Remember Me?

The only games I've bought in this sale so far have been sandbox/simulator games and I'm looking for something more action packed. I don't have a lot of spare time these days due to work and something that's pretty mindless but still enjoyable that's not excessively long is ideal.

I always wanted to give Remember Me a go at some point and I'm wondering if it's worth the £18? It does feel a bit steep but I guess it won't be going any lower than that for a while.

My main worry is that it'll end up free on PS+ at some point in the near future. But I guess I can say that about most games.

Remember Me is far too shallow in its combat system to warrant any price above 10 bucks. If you really want it, it might be worth it, but aside from some creative takes on future developments (and laughable failures of depicting some, like still screen video feeds when they have the bandwidth for entire minds...), it has little to offer that could worth the pricetag.

It's a tale of woe, really. It could have been something great if they just given up control over the combo system, instead of hogging it like "no, you can't do that! It will ruin our game!". Please. That's not an attitude people should have when they're making video game entertainment.

My issue with Remember Me is the stale ass combat mechanics and how they handcuff you with it.

And the lack of memory remixes. I thought the whole game would involve more of them but really, for the first 3/4s of the game, there were only 2.

It just got so tiresome I didn't even bother to finish it.

Thanks to all of you. I'll pick it up as soon as I can.

So I played FTL for 5 hours last night.

Thought it was only an hour.

At least it will probably run on my laptop from 2006 while I am at work.

Any suggestions for games that would run on an old laptop?

Hotline Miami, The Binding of Isaac (?), SuperMeatBoy, and PixelJunk Eden (System Shock 2 also maybe) are what come to mind since they do not seem particularly taxing (The Binding of Isaac is difficult to comment on, it isn't optimised very well so it might be problematic; somebody else will need to give a better say on this).
