Another Loosum fan? There's not enough of her in the game, that's for sure.

I think RAGE's alright, it's just not that great in one way or another at anything that doesn't involve firing a gun, so to me it just ends up being a little tedious.

I also don't understand why the AK is so shitty in that game, it takes like a million bullets to kill anyone with it.

Loosum? Not really sure who you're talking about lol. I'm guessing a character I meet later on?

Is any of the Fable games worth a damn?
Click to expand...

I enjoyed all three. They're games alright, no more, no less. The first was probably my favourite, but its been so damn long since I played it I have no idea if it holds up now.

The Fable series and its 'decline', and/or streamlining, closely mirrors that of Mass Effect, come to think of it. Hmmmm...

Oh, how is it then compard to the first game? I think I read somewhere in this thread that LC isn't as good as the first Fable game @_@.

It's the first game with a little extra content thrown in. You could think of it as a GOTY version, I guess.

You guys didn't get the Dead Spaces on Origin? :O

No, I hated DRM back then. Then I found out 90% of the games I got there had it, said "Screw it" and now I'm a happier man -albeit one with his PC infested with stupid SecuROM.

I was after the Tropico 4 Modern Times DLC but, because I had the Amazon copy, the DLC was too expensive. So it's actually been cheaper for me to double-dip and buy Tropico 4 on Steam and grab MT as well.

You're welcome dude. Sorry I couldn't throw strangers wrath in there too, I'm running out of cash, I have been gifting left right and centre. Seeing as how I don't celebrate Christmas, I still like gifting when I can.

why does the final boss
get to fully heal between our first encounter and our second but I'm pretty much just fucked?

How's Miasmata?

Giant Bomb did a quicklook for it that was pretty good. The major gameplay aspect is basically using orienteering to navigate your way around the island and try to figure out what's up. Looks really interesting to me.

Out of fuckin' nowhere.

Thanks Type-2, whoever you are. I hope you find your lost brother, Type-1. He is technically your superior but his heart was made wrong and he became evil. You, however, while physically weak, have been blessed with kindness and a heart that's true.

You don't need to be sorry! This is perfect! Thanks again, I truly appreciate it. You're doing a great thing.

So, are we now officially at that point whereby we can fondly look back at prior winter sales and regale which items went on sale then and not now?


This sale has been severely disappointing, got £40 in Steam vouchers for crimbo and I still have £30 left!

Came to post the same thing. Open the program and try to open the store, all I get is this:

Error Code: -102

Unable to connect to server. Server may be offline or you may not be connected to the internet.

It says that while Dota 2 continues to update, so it must just be the store.

Yep, looks like there's still one guy fighting for us at Valve, probably lost his job to pull the plug and save us from the repeats.
