Another $20 should do me, actually. Setting aside $25 for the Kingdoms of Amalur DLC, I'd be left with about the same to spend on whatever pops up over the next couple of days.

 

[stevematic]

Rayman.

Rayman

Done

 

[trinest]

If Rayman wins I'll be annoyed, I want Warlock to win dam it!

Forget about 1. Not necessary at all, even if it's a great game. But the atrocious load times and constant backtracking coupled with the length of the game will probably make you stop before the end anyway.

Witcher 2 is smoother and shorter.

In the end, people should play the first if that game appeals to them, but forget about it if the only reason they want to play it is because Witcher 2 appeals to them.
Otherwise you may end up never touching Witcher 2 which would be like the saddest thing ever.

The load times aren't that bad. Chapter 1 maybe because it's kind of large but the long loadtimes were fixed ages ago.

Still too long and too many for me.

 

[Tess3ract]

Eh, it's a game, go take a piss or have a book near you if it's that bad.

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

On the subject of The Witcher 2: I really hope that it's coming back on sale either today or tomorrow.

I wanted to buy it but ended up changing my mind thinking I'd have to beat TW1 beforehand. Now I'm completely regretting it after finding out that it's standalone.

What does that even mean? You thought it was an expansion? When do you ever have to beat one game before playing the next?

 

[xelios]

I can help with gifting at US prices for a while at these weird hours. Had a few people ask and Bulletstorm seems to be the big one (again) so thought I'd post here.

Buy an SSD and problem solved! Seriously though loads aren't that bad as a former consolite who played New Vegas on the 360 and endured the god awful loading screens of Freeside I can promise you it can get much worse.

Mass effect?

 

[toddhunter]

Thanks to all the us friends.

 

[Sarcasm]

My W1 load times are almost instantaneous.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

People, buy The Witcher 1, its not needed for TW2 per se, but is an amazing game in its own right and makes even better meeting characters in 2.

Also the books if you can find them, 1 and 2 have lots of amazing details you will encounter if you have read the books, its even more prominent in 2 with the main story. People need to know who were Jeneffer and Ciri.

 

[Empty Space]

Mass effect?

That's not what Bioware and Casey Hudson said.

[Prophet Steve]

How is the multiplayer of the Civilization games? I only tried singleplayer.

 

[Tess3ract]

hah.

Fucking mass effect was the disappointment of the century by far.

 

[pock3tmonster]

If you can tell me what Fallout 3, Fable III, and Dragon Age: Origins share in common, besides being WRPGs and having nameless protagonist I will give you a copy of Psychonauts.

Hey Empty Space, not sure if you saw this, but are is the commonality the:

GotY/Ultimate re-releases?

Spoiler

Superior PC versions.

Haha. It never occurred to met that Fable 3 didn't have a GotY edition. I just presumed based on the second... Oops.

 

[Empty Space]

Hey Empty Space, not sure if you saw this, but are is the commonality the:

I did check your PMs. That's not it there is no official Fable 3 collection.

 

[honorless]

Fuck yeah, bank processed my credit card payment. (...after I called yesterday and asked why it was taking so long...hmm...) Either way: back in the game!

I need some advice here. If you were up for a gift copy of Magicka, would you want

• the whole shebang with all the DLC
• the base game, Vietnam, The Stars are Left and The Other Side of the Coin
• just the base game

(note, this is not a giveaway yet, sorry)

See, I don't care about cosmetic extras or PvP so I'd feel kinda bad if someone gifted me the full collection. They'd have wasted money on stuff that will mostly go unused. But I know I'm a weirdo with weird opinions, so help me out here.

Just get on the base game.

 

[Jables Swan]

[Basileus777]

I can't see how that is a bad thing for this game.

The last 3rd of Bloodlines is pretty much all combat. Coincidentally, in the last 3rd of the game there is a huge drop in quality.

 

[Tess3ract]

They're all boring.

Yes, yes, and no.

2/3 isn't bad!

 

[Shahadan]

I was so close ;(

You can own property in all of them.

I think I know the answer but I already have Psychonauts.

Ha! That was my answer.

I liked Fallout 3.

 

[Shahadan]

I smell lots of psychonauts to be given.

 

[Tess3ract]

None of the main characters actually speak (I already have psychonauts)

I liked Fallout 3.

Fallout New Vegas was much better imho

 

[JaseC]

They're not Half-Life 3.

 

[Empty Space]

Dog companions?

You win! PM me your email address.

 

[rakhir]

Borderlands - it's the most boring thing playing in SP.

That's a shame. I really don't know whether or you should forget about it.

Thanks guys, i will skip it then.

I've just started New Vegas. Liking it so far.

I stipulated earlier, but after my initial post that it had nothing to do with the inherent nature of most WRPGs. I guess the talking aspect is more subjective then objective though. Want Nuclear Dawn? I've got that lying around too.

I don't really want anything

"Standalone" in regard to the game's narrative.

But that isn't the case. Witcher 2 picks up right after the end of the first game.

Mass effect?

You get more out of it, but you don't have to play each game before the next. That's the case of pretty much every series. People worry too much about not getting a game if they don't play its series in order, as if developers are out to limit its potential audience to only those who have played the other games. White Knight Chronicles 2 has a copy of WKC on the disc, and even it doesn't require that you play it first.

What's Nuclear Dawn like?

 

[JaseC]

But that isn't the case. It picks up right after the end of the first game.

Yes, but knowledge of the first game isn't a requisite to enjoy or even understand the narrative of The Witcher 2, which is why he's now interested in purchasing the game.

 

[Empty Space]

Dog companions? EDIT: I already have Psychonauts though, oops!

Well, Fuck now what do I do?

I already have nuclear dawn :|

If you find something $5 or less you want let me know.

What's Nuclear Dawn like?

No clue I got it as part of one of the indie bundles that had something else I wanted.

 

[Tess3ract]

I have THREE three day passes for RO2

PM me if you want them, but since they are so time limited I really only want to give them out to people who absolutely are going to play the game at some point during 3 days from now.

 

[TheBear]

Has there been a sale on Rochard or Jagged Alliance? Only two games I really want now

EDIT: oh and Earth Defence Force!!

 

[Firebrand]

Has there been a sale on Rochard or Jagged Alliance? Only two games I really want now

Jagged Alliance was up on the community voting but lost.

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

Yes, but knowledge of the first game isn't a requisite to enjoy or even understand the narrative of The Witcher 2, which is why he's now interested in purchasing the game.

Which goes back to my point: It's extremely rare for games to do that anyway. Not without some method of catching people up at the beginning.
