I watched the last vid and that's pretty much how the game looked on my PS3, and the frame rate never affected my playthrough at all @_@.
When's LoS2 releasing again? March right? Might make a replay of 1 by then...
Then why does WW All-Stars always have to check the data/cache the game data everytime I play it =_=.
It doesn't appear to have a release date just yet.

Awesome, thanks.
Just wrapped up 100% in Psychonauts. Wasn't as irritating as I thought it would be. I found an amazing guide to figure out the remaining 3 bullshit figments I was missing.
It feels pretty good having it join Costume Quest:
and Stacking:
I'm ready for The Cave now. I have a pretty easy 100% line up after this too: The Walking Dead, Scribblenauts, and Lego LOTR.
Wow dude! You are the gamer I wish I was...
Psychonauts aside, Double Fine games are pretty easy to 100% without going too far out of your way.

Psychonauts was the only one that was even remotely difficult and it was only difficult because there are some easily missable achievements and it requires thoroughness.
You should anyway. Costume Quest is the best RPG ever made.

PES was pretty awful for a while but 2013 was a return to form. Of course, now that EA is finally putting a better engine on PC it isn't without competition. We'll see.

Dammit, Dream Machine updated and I thought maybe it was Episode 4 but it was just a patch.
Chapter 4 is due soon? Its release would mean just one more chapter until I can complete my playthrough.

You're welcome
Steam is just like that. At the least expected moment, something pops up in the registry, be it Alan Wake for PC or Nights into Dreams and such.
Just hoping PES2013 will be good and play well on the comp. Like
Oh, I noticed the Stacking mention. I guess I have my targets. Stacking and Half-Minute Hero. Time to trim some of the fat of this backlog!

The game is already out for PC, just in retail format, so I'm sure someone could find some impressions of how good of a port it is. Great to see the game finally coming out for Steam though, hope the price is inline with the retail PC release (half the price instead of full priced), though I have my doubts about that.

Ah, so it's out for retail, I'll have to take a look then. Agreed on the price, I hope they won't try to play some tricks or anything like that. Although they can set it artificially high for the mandatory Steam Sale discount... YET, I hope that won't be the case.
It's okay if they are clearly CGI, but I absolutely hate it when it uses in-game assets. Why not just script it? You already did the work, didn't you? The only thing Darksiders 2 had for it was it almost had no (if any) pre-rendered cutscenes so it didn't bloat up my hard drive.
But then we move to XCOM, on launch it had 720 and 1080 versions of its pre-rendered cutscenes...
Some were worried that its return was done in error, but it seems The Sims Medieval: Pirates & Nobles is indeed back: it now has an icon in search results, its store URL no longer takes you back to the front page several times before working correctly, and, many hours after the fact, it's appeared as a recent purchase in my activity page.

So are you going to play it?
Since it's Konami it'll probably be some deal where if you pre-order on Steam or elsewhere you'll get LoS1, but that will be the only way.

Which of the LEGO games are worth picking up?
So, speaking of backlogs, what games are relatively easy to 100%? I would say the Double Fine games, Sequence, most point & click adventure games (Blackwell requiring a second playthrough with commentary on), and even Deus Ex HR (I only missed one book because I wasn't thorough).
What else?
What else?
The Harry Potter games mark the point where TT began experimenting outside of the series' traditional formula. Batman 2 and LoTR in particular are open-world rather than hub-based.
Incidentally, the original as a pre-order incentive is what I've been expecting.
I'm enjoying Sleeping Dogs (near the end), but it does feel pretty by-the-numbers as a GTA clone. It's not bad in any aspect and the setting is nice but I feel like I'm doing the same stuff I've done countless times before in these games. If it wasn't for the setting or the plot and characters, I don't know if I could have seen it through till the end.
What's this? Imageshack is blocked :/Ugh I feel like a bout of deja vu coming on, and this time it's Kotaku that took the bait.

Since we don't have a GamersGate thread and lots of people from Steam Sale thread bought items from GamersGate during the "fiasco" I'll post this here:
End note: Don't trust GamersGate.
What's with the GG hate? 20% off for a year seems awesome. Am I the only one who lives off of Paradox titles?

Someone asked Kamiya for his opinion of Valve and Steam, he replied that he has no interest in either thing. His twitter's been blowing up about it since the article hit.
It's a picture of Kamiya trolling someone on Twitter by claiming to not know what Valve is. And Kotaku taking it seriously without doing any background investigation and posting the tweet as a serious article, hinting that Japanese devs haven't heard of Steam.
(For what it's worth, Platinum Games visited Valve HQ last year)
If you want some non tongue-in-cheek comments from PG regarding Steam.

I loved LOTR and the Star Wars ones, my GF loved Harry Potter 1/2.
Kotaku strikes again!
I was going to say the article is particularly funny as Kotaku published an article last year about

Primal Fears is out now for $8.99 (the 4-pack is $22.49)
best icon.
It's a 4-player / top-down / co-op game where you kill things with friends. I bet morningbus will like this one.

It was specifically Inaba, not Kamiya, that got photoed trying to rotate the giant red valve in the Valve HQ lobby.
It's like for every post Jason Schreier makes trying to defend them, someone on the Kotaku staff manages a feat of journalistic failure. Using tweets as the basis for articles is pretty classic Kotaku.

$7.49 at Amazon, $2.49 if you have an EC coupon from buying a digital download game in Nov/Dec 2012. Price good until 1/9 iirc. Redeems on Steam.
Edit: misinterpreted your post. Amazon still wins.
The Walking Dead. Each one of the 40 achievements is progress-related, so there's absolutely no way to miss one. At the end of your first playthrough you'll be presented with an easy 100%'ed game (and an experience you won't forget, truly awesome game).
Hell Yeah! is easy to 100% too, if you're willing to grind a little for the "100 (or so) deaths" and "win the biggest prize at the casino" cheevos.
Was he joking or what? It can be a humorous way of saying he hasn't got plans of releasing any future games on Steam, or an innocent joke unrelated to his future plans on PC. Whatever it is, I'll read the article when I get home.
EDIT: or not, Polygon isn't blocked at work. Oh well, it's not like I'm being paid to do anything else than browse GAF
