Might as well ask this here, even though it's a little off topic: Is The Walking Dead still glitched as far as PC saves? I got it via the Steam sale, but I really hope that they fixed it by now. I don't want to run into it.

When it happened to me it was because eps2 was putting the saves in a different titled folder then eps1. This was easily fixed by dragging and dropping.

Waiting for Max Payne to recap over the weekend so Amazon has to price match it. Then I'm done. Hopefully, maybe. I don't wanna spend anymore Garry!!!

Honestly I have so many games in my backlog (console, portables, PC, mobile) that I don't need others adding to it:)

Seriously if I do want something (like a DOTA 2 key that Liferebooted so generously gave me) I'll let you guys know.

Well let me know! I was trying to get something from your wishlist, only to find none lol. As a fellow calvin and hobbes fan, I demand it. :p

Yeah, it's like that - all this late-sale umming-and-ahhing over things I've been coveting for weeks/months/years, but... my backlog. So I'm currently trying to avoid the store pages for these:

- Witcher 2
- FTL
- Crysis
- GTR 2
- Sleeping Dogs
- Defender's Quest
- The Walking Dead (Amazon coupon is burning a hole in my pocket)

Please wake me when it's all over, good people.

Old news (been out all day), but these sale reprisal shenanigans are a bit unnecessary, aren't they? Or are they counting on indecisive over-analysers like me to grab those ABSOLUTELY LAST CHANCE offers?

I noticed that both flash sales now say finishing at the same time - I'm guessing that's it for flash sales. Also no community games? The current choice isn't showing up for me.

Well to their credit several sites have run stories about the sales extension.

So as an advertisement for their sales it worked

Can anyone sell/unsell me on Hell Yeah? I was interested because of the crazy boss monster finishers.

I'll quote myself from a couple of pages back:

I liked it a lot, though a couple of sections can be frustrating. It's a blast to play, the graphics are beautiful and the music kicks ass.

I totally recommend it. Jazz Jackrabbit meets WarioWare with a small dose of metroidvania.

The warioware part sounds intriguing.

There is a microgame after defeating each "boss" (I write "boss" with quotes because there are 101 of them). Each one is repeated 2 or 3 times, so there are only 35 or so unique microgames, but they're still fun (except a particular one that is really frustrating). And there's a killing animation after them, just like there is something funny and random at the end of each microgame in WarioWare.

If you wanna see one in action, go to the minute 4:20 in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9JWLCDQKUA

Thank you kind gents so much for steering me towards Sleepy Dawgz. Played it for 9 straight hours today. Holy shit that game is fun. Usually GTA type stuff doesn't do it for me, but something about that game just constantly demands my attention. Already feel like I got my $17 worth.

Oh, and it looks beautiful on minimum settings. So there's that.

I notice that as well with the high resolution pack. You could nip pick here and there, but is no biggie. Im running most stuff on extreme and high. I got the fxaa low, and instead running at 2400x1360 to compensate. Everything looks great at those settings locked at 60fps.

Can I have Blackwell Deception? I got the trilogy before the collection of the 4 came out so now I'm kinda screwed on that one.
