Decided to pass on Gal Civ. It sounds up my alley, especially after reading that article, but I have too much other stuff on my plate already. I wouldn't have time for it (or some other games) if I decided to sit down and play and get sucked into 10+ hour scenarios.
Maybe Winter Sale.

Fucking nice! Thanks, I've been wanting this to come to Steam forever! Hopefully it's better than Divinity 2 (although I never played the supposed "fixed" version of Divinity 2).

Yes I already knew that part like 20 mins ago. You still haven't figured out "hink tollarnots".

5 dollars
Yes. Besides general graphics filters, there's one that fills the wasteland with plants. I really like the latter. It makes the place feel more real.

Any of the people who figured out that the language was Armenian care to tell me how you got to it?

if i mod Fallout NV will it disable achievements?
It's only solo right now. The co-op patch doesn't release until next month.
From the little bit I played tonight, it's my favorite game I've bought during the sale so far. It's like Torchlight with a little bit of Starcraft control mechanics (since you're in charge of three people) mixed with some old Fallout.
Ah, should have guessed. In any case, all of his misspellings really threw me off.

It has aged really REALLY poorly. Just get Risen instead.
I googled "Runic languages", found a page with various of those and compared the text in the image.

Type a couple of words into google translate, change the 'to' language option until it looks the same

I had no idea what it was until folks were praising it in the last thread, so I completely glossed over it. But hearing it describe, it definitely hits all the right notes. I'll definitely be checking it out.
No, but if you use the console it will, at least until a restart.

Yeah Dacvuk wins the prize guys, sorry for those who got really close,
since I promised to double the prize, the "hink dollar" is now "dase dollar"
So any game of your choice for $10 and under Dacvuk, I guess I have to add you as a friend on Steam? I have no idea how it woks, since I have no Steam friends and this is the first time I my greedy ass is gifting something.
for what it's worth HoosTrax, you figured out "Secret" way before Dacvuk did, you only had to figure out few other easier words and you could've got it.

Yes I apologize, Armenian isn't an easy language to spell , the alphabet has frikin 36 letters!! and half of those are the same pronunciation but a different letter.

Yeah, same here. This was the final translation, though:
If you can read this, there's a $5 gift game for you from Steam, The secret word is mouse (PM me)
just google alphabets and armenian is the first one in list

It's a nice evolution of the Alan Wake formula, however it's obvious the 2GB size limit imposed on XBLA titles was very restrictive; for instance, the game's campaign is spread out over three small hub areas that you play through three times, with each visit lasting no longer than about 20-odd minutes (if that), and there's a wealth of utterly horrible textures that wouldn't look out of place in a late-90s PC game.

Yeah someone told me about that.
I feel bad recommending it so hard if you have to do that. I don't remember that at all (I think it detected it off my previous installation. It found my save files too, so I think that's what happened). He said it was painless though...
But still I hate shit like that.
Game is still totally worth it.
I don't actually feel bad for recommending it so hard. Game is so worth it.

Well in any case, I had fun with the little puzzle thingy. Grats to Dacvak and thanks to Johnny for doing it.
Btw, I started up SR3 tonight, and I'm having the same issue I had with Mass Effect the first few days - the weird ass third person aiming FOV is making me queasy. I think I'll adjust soon like I did with ME...hopefully.

I have a question. If a friend of mine buys some of the same games can he backup his files to external hdd and I restore those files to my pc ? That way it saves us both time from downloading and dealing with data caps
Yes. I have a friend who has FIOS at home does this for me a lot. To clarify, I don't bother with the "backup" feature, I just copy the folders over.
Fantastic point and click. Bought it last year. An all time great.

This tells me I should play it soon... but of course, that is against the rules.

I'm already noticing this 10 minutes in, really cool game though. I bought AW 3 days or so ago and I've already beaten it, couldn't put it down.

I think I found it on that site too after googling "alphabets".
The font in the image was slightly different from the one used on the google translate and other keyboards though.
That's the normal Stardock login from even before Impulse, the one that would have been created if you downloaded it directly from them back when that PC Gamer blog was first up. I put in the e-mail address I used years ago and it still had me registered. The only time you should need it would be the first time launching it and to set up a Metaverse name.

I was getting close, but got side-tracked by the grammar. I like to study languages in my free time so I went off and started reading on the grammar and whatnot online. Oh well, fun while it lasted;D
Congratz Dacvak and HoosTrax.

So yeah Dacvak was nice enough to split the first prize to two 5 dollar games each and the runner up in this case is clearly HoosTrax, so HoosTrax and Dacvak win!

So I just beat Harley Quinn's Revenge. Got me thinking(not really a spoiler, more of a comment on the DLC itself)
what was the point? It wasn't bad, just very meh. Was hoping for something a little more substantial. It added next to nothing to the story, and kind of took away what established AC as a great title, I mean it didn't even channel AA either, if it all, which I think it may have tried to do. Oh well, at least I got it cheap from the sale.

That was a lot of fun, Johnny. Thanks for the cool brain teaser. =)
New vegas but imo neither is a bad choice
