Other people on the forums would read his post, and they would laugh. They laughed, and they laughed, and they ridiculed the heritage of spudsbuckley as well as the size of his genitals, which were quite small you see. Luckily for spudsbuckley, life would present him with another opportunity. Let's have a go in 3, 2... Hey, look. For once, they sent a poet.

I tried the stanley parable demo and I didn't like it. It seemed a little 'up its own rear end' if you will.

Anyone want to comment on how Heavy Bullets is? I see it's for sale on the Humble Store but I'm not sure if I want to pull the trigger.

redreader posted:Don't starve is one of the best games I've played in the last couple of years. The only game I've played more is Civ V. It's probably best to start with the original game and then when you've played it for a bit (i.e. maybe 10-15 games, at least 5 of which you've survived a winter in?) add the dlc. The DLC makes it harder but also adds some pretty cool things that ... uhm. make it easier in some ways. The thing is, there's so much to do and craft that I'd play it without the RoG dlc first. Can you not disable the DLC after you buy it? I've not got around to playing it yet but at 50% off i might as well snag the DLC.

Having just bought it, the game lets you select whether or not the DLC is on whenever you start a new game. No need for any install trickery.

Yo is GetGamesGo legit? They're selling Far Cry 4 + AC Unity together for 90 bucks, and I have to say it's pretty tempting for both. http://www.getgamesgo.com/product/far-cry-4-assassins-creed-unity-bundle

John Murdoch posted:Any goons playing Payday 1 right now are playing it out of curiosity because they never got a chance to play it when it was timely. Payday 2 is a substantially different game from Payday 1 and many would argue which one is subjectively better, but 2 is much more polished, deep, and most important actually has a lasting population (it's worth mentioning that both games are very much in the vein of Left4Dead and you fundamentally lose out if you intend to play them in single player). We shall see if it runs on my pc tonights.

So, not being one to spend money on games unless the gameplay is actually fun and exhilarating, I'm ashamed to say I've been laughing for about 5 minutes straight at EIGHT. Will I really enjoy The Stanley Parable (full game)? I'm starting to doubt myself. Edit: This is a screenshot of a game labeled "Famous Demoes" in the demo. What is it?

Half-Life: Uplink. Half-Life's demo. Rather than just cutting a chunk out of the game and using that, Valve made a short campaign just for the demo.

Edit: never mind, the problem was it kept defaulting to /Steam instead of /steamapps, and setting that manually fixed the problem. Occultatio fucked around with this message at 01:44 on Oct 18, 2014 |

Amazon used to be good for buying games for dirty foreigners because of its rather lax credit card checks. I'm attempting to buy Enemy Within ($10 compared to $16 (Steam) or $49 (GMG)) but for the first time it seems like it actually cares because my order has been rejected twice because both credit cards are not from the US. For those that have run into this before, is it enough to buy a gift card attach that to your account and then buy the game that way?

I think amazon added a simple postal code validation at some point last year, because mine didn't work but after changing it, it did. Are you Canadian? From what I read for Canadians it just means removing the letters and leading off with anything ie a1b 2c3 becomes 99123. If you're not, no clue, but google is your friend here.

Australia - but the post code thing doesn't seem to work either. I try to modify the post code and it "helpfully" corrects it. Also adding a gift card to the account and attempting to puchase that way doesn't work either - because they STILL try to validate the CC. That's $10 down the pisser.

Question: Are there still big spiders in Grimrock 2? Actually, better question: Is there a lot of reused content in it or is it basically totally standalone?

Yaws posted:I should have read this thread before purchasing The Evil Within. And here I am absolutely loving it. It's pure Mikami. Resident Evil 4 remade for 2014, pretty much, but that's cool with me. It's much tighter than RE4 - the enemies are always threatening, and ammo/health is always very scarce. It's an action horror game but never falls into the Dead Space pitfall of making the player an unstoppable god of destruction. It helps that the setting is basically Silent Hill + Hellraiser 2. Lets them mess with the player a lot more.

I did read somewhere though that anything involving 2K is a lot more stringent with its checks - so I guess it just caries of my belief of "gently caress 2K you worthless cunts".
