bish gets all the credit :)
with Bundle Stars doing a weekend sale on some WB games the Batman set would be a little less than $30 for all three games (Asylum GOTY, City GOTY, Origins + Season Pass)...is that about the lowest to expect for them all together?

You might want to try to find a trader with AA and AC from humble bundle. They're usually much cheaper than buying them from a store.
 
The season pass has been $5 before, so the total price could be lower. Plus Oranges will probably reach $5 at some point (it's already been very close to $5 in the past).

thanks...I can hold off for now, I just wanted to check here and see what others said about the price since you all have followed these sales and stuff more than I ever have

You might want to try to find a trader with AA and AC from humble bundle. They're usually much cheaper than buying them from a store.

AA and AC are $5 each...the thing making the price like that is Origins ($7.50 for the game and $10 for the pass)

If you read last year's winter sale thread, I pretty much took the thing apart in multiple posts =p
I wouldn't recommend playing through it yourself, even for the lulz.
I only finished it because someone gifted it to me =p

What did you do to get that thrown your way?

At least some fun gifs/vids came out of the damn thing, though.
 
Hey peeps. Been some time. Hope you're all doing fine or at least better than me.
How's your arm turfy? Nice avi JaseC, looks a bit young though.

Anyway, glad I was right with my prediction MGS:GZ would come in the next 3 months. Hopefully my other guesses (MGS:Legacy reveal before MGS:pP) will come true as well :)

Anything interesting happen in the last two days? I am still skimming the last 30 pages. Only saw a price mistake for Paradox bundle. Cities in Motion 2 and Europa Universalis IV would have been a blast for 5 cent. Oh well, not like I haven't enough backlog already.

Nice to see you people again.

People love gifting me "bad" games, since they know I'll do my best to finish everything I'm gifted, if possible.
ACM has been pretty much the worst one of the bunch, though.
(Yes, I have some peculiar "friends")

How's your arm turfy?
Still going to PT regularly. I can use it, but it's still painful.


GMG updated their welcome pack with some different games.


New Flying Bundle
Price: 1.5$
  • Gentlemen
  • Mr Bree+
  • ?
  • Pitman (desura)
  • Sweezy Gunner
  • Villagers and Heroes: Hero of Stormhold
  • White Noise Online

It took me six times to finally get rid of Mogg the Wicked. Honestly the best way is to do a mission elsewhere so that time advances, hopefully another orc will take his place before he can come back.

Good for you playing your gifts to the fullest. Whenever I get gifted a game, it goes straight to the top of my queue and I post impressions when I finish it or give it a suitable go. Hence the impressions I gave for Infected the other day. I also was gifted Journey of a Roach, and I gave it a go...I do not foresee favourable impressions in its future.

That is something that I would love to come to fruition. 1 and 3 are my faves, and having them on Steam would be swell. Oh, and Pillars of Eternity was delayed, but Alien Isolation is getting mostly positive reviews.

Beat Shadows of Mordor.
Definitely better than I thought it would be especially considering my first impressions. Though story wise definitely feels like they got rushed or cut content for the season pass. The story just feels off in what should basically be the middle ends up becoming the end game which is just odd. Hopefully a sequel could improve in that department if one is ever made


Also can someone explain that ending to me?
Why did he say that at the end?

I won the Hamlet adventure game on Steamgifts and made myself play it through to the end because I didn't want to waste a gift. That game was awful.

Well im on the East Coast. So its about 3 and a half hours till 7:30. Though for EU GAF I can move it up an hour if you guys want? to 6:30 PM EDT

I'm fine either way, as I don't need to get up early!

Seems Shan Gui didnt sell too well:

Too bad, since I liked it, but actually it was far too short (30-45 minutes) and just a kinetic VN, so there were no choices. But I would say the art, music and the dub was actually quite good.
I enjoyed it.

On 20th October though it will be 2,49$, so maybe that will help the sales.

That's a real shame. It was really quite a sweet story, but I can totally see why it didn't sell too well. Maybe I'll buy a few copies when it's on sale to give away here.
 
I'm about 10 hours in to Assassin's Creed III. I've heard a lot of mixed things about this game, but as it stands now, I'm loving it. It just feels so fresh after playing through the Ezio trilogy recently. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to enjoy it because of franchise fatigue but I really am. Plus, the reveal that
Haytham was a templar
is definitely my favorite moment in the whole series. Didn't see that coming at all.

"This game is in your discovery queue just to see if you might be interested."
How about no?

Also, Valve still haven't fixed the fucking region-locked F2P discovery queue barfing.
 
Hah! In the other gifs it looked like she was showing the middle-finger when Snake was in her line of sight.
Thank you based Kojima.
Somehow I know the guy cosplaying Quiet?! I saw him, I just don't remember where? Hope it doesn't turn out to be something embarrassing...
I also tried Far Cry 4 today, PS4 version. Excluding elephants, it looks the same stuff from 3, to me :S
Interesting. FC4 is already out on PS4? Or is a beta? I really liked FC3 and from the trailers it was pretty obvious to me it's gonna be very similar. I am ok with it. Not every game has to reinvent the wheel.
Happy something again!
Very cool of you, thanks. In for Terrorhedron, Space Farmers and Corporate Lifestyle Simulator.
 
This gif from the kotaku review is great(well, the actual quality is shit), good to know you have to be careful even when using a computer :D

Bedlam looks like an interesting game worth keeping an eye on. Though the FPS gameplay may be only average to competent, the writing by Christopher Brookmyre helps make for an amusing and fun story through a "travel through different game worlds" setting a la ReBoot.
FPS in a Pac-Man inspired maze is good fun

Early access in this case refers to not every stage being present, plenty of bugs, scripts still needing to be written, and incomplete graphics and art assets.

No good ever comes from using Floppy Drive computers. Not now, not the 1980s, not 21XX, never.

I agree Isolation does look good, though a bit like Dead Rising I'm still a bit worried about how frustrating the checkpoint/save system is and how tiresome it might get to retread the same areas over and over again depending on how poorly I may play.

I also want an expansion to Isolation, well a side-story really. Same game, just make Amanda Ripley the free path A.I. that can do whatever and we get to play as the Xenomorph. Different experience, though too much new programming than what a simple DLC would allow.

Well... shit.
Sigh. There goes the media blackout =p

(Can people tag their anonymous gifs so I'll know not to actually load the image next time?)
 
I'm tempted to buy Diablo 3 and the expansion pack for $40 but then I remember that I should have just bought Shadow of Mordor from a Russian bear when I had the chance. Then I go back to playing Smash Bros <3

See, Fortune being a ganguro in MGS2 makes since cuz of MGS2's context
Fortune.jpg


This games takes place in the 70s and 80s, it's one thing to have a character with their own personality, and another to just add fanservice for the sake of fanservice cuz you're an Otaku.

Man, seeing Uncharted Waters Online on Steam just makes me want a new single player UW game that actually gets localized :/

Uncharted Waters man that game was good... We are talking NES here right? I may have some rose tint going on here but. yeah I remember that being a blast.
