2 minutes for winner

Speaking of which any idea how easy it is to mod a fightstick? I got my HORI that I might start using for my PC fighting games.

check the Shoryuken forums, search for your specific stick. It depends, but for the most part its really easy. The WWE/SE stick im getting overly so, probably the easiest.

The stock buttons on the brawl stick aren't half bad. A huge improvement from the previous SE buttons. While you'll definitely want to throw some Sanwa (I'm a bit partial to Seimitsu, personally) in there later, the stocks are totally usable. Good to learn on. You'll also have a better appreciation of the new buttons once you get them put in.

I'll add you for some AE or MK sometime.

for sure!

we'll see how I do. I was way more into fighting games and arcade sticks around third strike, and kinda just didnt get full-on with the whole SFIV revival, at least in terms that I sold my hori stick and never really wanted to get into the games with a pad (and getting arcade sticks here is tough). But now that MK hit, Skullgirls, an amazing EVO, etc.. its looking like the PC is getting its due and it's time to go back.

LOL of course the cheapest won. Don't care about Rollercoaster Tycoon 3. Isn't that old ass game on sale all the time?
 
Debating Deus Ex HR. I already finished it on 360 two years ago but how is the DLC and the first two games that come in the bundle? Are they worth the time?
 
Eightarc Fusion Synthesis for life(you better support my damn stick One/PS4), reminds me of my old Gameboy Color/Advance in terms of the clear design.

really awesome game, a throwback to old adventure games, reminds me of Beneath a Steel Sky which is top tier.

Totally. I do dig the Bladerunner vibe. I hope Wadjet Eye Games enjoys some significant success, and we're able to get more of this stuff. It's been too long since the era of point-and-click adventures.

If you can deal with the dated graphics the first game holds up very well. You should definitely give it a shot imo.

So did I just install a form of DRM on my machine with Sins: Rebellion?

Fired up the game and it's asking me to register with Stardock. I've never heard of them before and it won't let me play without registering

im pretty sure that if I lived in the US or Japan I'd have a Yes Boss! sized collection of Arcade Sticks. Even when I took a break from fitghting games.

I just like looking at them.

The first one is a classic. It has dated graphics of course and the combat and stealth isn't as polished as in HR, but I think it's still the better game. The second one we don't talk about lol

And the DLC is very good.

Considering how Atari is currently auctioning off all their IP to avoid bankruptcy? It might get pulled from Steam, who knows what will happen when the new owners show up. GOG just finished their 65% off Atari catalog sale last night too.
 
I think I was lucky because I bought The Cave and it was $3.74 the first day, and now it's $7.49

Also I received my second booster pack it was from Hotline Miami, so I decided to unpacked it, and surprise, my second foil :)

I can't help but wonder if the 85% markdown for Deus Ex HR is because of the Director's Cut coming later this year. Have many other non-indie games done more than a 75% reduction before?

At least I bought what I actually wanted during GOG's Summer Sale, I suppose.

Is Unreal Tournament 2004 still alive? I wish I could just use my old cd keys to activate on Steam. Not sure it is worth $3.74 now. Any impressions?
