Even though I don't spend heaps of time in here any more, I still check in here every day and still think, when you're not bitching at each other, you're the best community on the internet. I hope you all had a great Christmas, stay safe and stay awesome.  Edit - Oh yeah, and take a ride on the gift train while you're at it.

Is The Evil Within better on PC or PS4? Please no snarky "neither" replies.

lilspooky posted:I personally enjoyed it. I'd definitely say it's worth picking up. Its kind of hard to follow what's going on though, especially on maps with different planets. There's no good way to get that fully zoomed out view of the entire game that SC is known for. Even casters seem to get surprised by things sometimes.

If I want to run around and shoot things by myself and also play some Multiplayer, which Call of Duty game do I play? I know some of the older ones are better games but I guess there wouldn't be much MP action these days?

Hellburger99 posted:I'd say PS4 because who in the gently caress has 4 gigs of video card RAM?! Huh. I have 2 gb video RAM (660ti), and it ran quite well with the letterboxing removed (which adds quite a bit of renderable area). I was hitting 45~50 fps instead of 60, but at 30 I was running it maxed out.

I'd say low because the problem is most likely on your end. Steam would issue the refund anyway, not the devs.

Question for you goons... a lot of the Call of Duty games are on sale right now on Steam. So, which ones are worth picking up? I would only play them single-player, so don't care at all about multi-player features. What are the best, and the most reasonably prices?

Did Wasteland 2 get patched up to where there aren't nearly as many of the bugs that got reported in reviews all over upon initial release?

Call of Duty 4 is pretty much the gold standard of the newer campaigns. It's pretty incredible from start to finish. Modern Warfare 2 also has a fun campaign. Basically Infinity Ward (old ones, not the the shell it is now) campaigns are pretty drat fun. The rest not hugely so.

I have a legit 360 controller, official microsoft wireless adapter, and the game will not recognize any input. So when I post about how it's totally broken, all I get is "You're a dumb gently caress, probably have it synced to your 360, trololololol"

One-off sync issues that only affect a few people tend to be a hardware problem, not software. Not that I know anything about this game in particular, but I've fooled around with the wireless sync enough to know a little about how finicky it can be.

It's after this that the plot goes from stupid fun to just stupid, I couldn't get into Black Ops at all. World at War was also terrible, which sucks because I wanted to listen to Keifer Sutherland and Gary Oldman say things.

I'd be into playing another visual novel (Long Live the Queen was pretty fun), and this one seems really well-regarded.

Less gameplay than Long Live the Queen (they are extremely story oriented) but they're very well written dark stories told in a framework obviously meant to echo typical VNs.

In general for the deals right now, Lego Batman 3 is great for casual play, Sleeping Dogs Definitive is a good upgrade if you haven't owned the game (or owned the game but none of its DLC), and it's hard to go wrong with Football Manager.

Cialis Railman posted:So I got a $50 gift card for a present. What do you guys recommend? I'm open to anything. Star Control II is the best game ever made RUSH and English Country Tune are both less than a buck. Can confirm RUSH is an elegant puzzler, and lots of goons like ECT (though I've never played it. Worth a pickup if you like puzzle games. Escape Goat for less than $2. Buy this now. did you consider Double Dragon Neon is 5 Dollars On sale without being featured: HABITAT, which is basically "gently caress around in Low Earth Orbit: The Game" If you ever wanted to tie the Statue Of Liberty to the T-Rex Statue from Novac and fly around Earth, there ya go. Alien: Isolation is the best game of the year. Alien vs Predator isn't exactly good but about a third of it is scary, and another third is cool because you can run on the walls. (Do not play the Predator third) Eldritch is actually a lot scarier than it should be while sporting PS1-era graphics. The sound design goes a long way. Eversion is really more of a "I have to go rock slowly in the shower now" type of scary, but goddamn is it good. Short, though. I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream suffers from some pretty bad 'puzzle game logic' at parts, but at less than $2 will give you the depressing heebie-jeebies all the same  The Swapper is really, really spooky and cold and depressing and scary and holy poo poo you guys play The SwapperVlad the Impaler is basically a Princess Maker game, but the very first choice you make leads to someone possibly getting sawed in half, longways.

When you say you're logged into steam are you talking about having the client running or are you logged into the website only? When it runs properly a mini-window with the game icon will take up the upper 1/4 of the screen you screenshotted, as a seperate window.

Minimized, but logged in. Will give it another go. Edit - having it not minimized made no difference. Just seems strange. The values copied into the settings.txt file are clearly working. All of the information that appears in that window is accurate. No biggie. I typically idle through SAM as I get games that have cards - it's not like I have hundreds to go through. Just using SAM for now. Tony Phillips fucked around with this message at 04:36 on Dec 26, 2014 |

Steam keeps taking my money... My Backlog has reached stupid critical mass. Then, I see that Super Meat Boy is just $0.74. When I see prices that low; I just have to buy it  I never thought I'd live to see an era where these sorts of deals and stuff would be possible. I remember one time at a Wal-Mart many years ago they had just some PC games in loose CDs (no manuals) for $5. I got one really good game that way. This beats even that... Now we get that sort of thing coming to us twice a year via Steam... what an age we live in.

I like pretty much everything, so I'm looking for stuff that other people have enjoyed. That said, what do people think of Alan Wake? I think someone earlier in the thread said that it was pretty good if you didn't take it seriously, so I might be interested in it. I'm in the mood for driving cars quickly, and TDU 2 and NFS: Hot Pursuit have deep discounts today, so how are those?

They're very good and I love them a lot, although as has been mentioned they're farther toward the "novel" side than the game side, so only pick it up if you're cool with that. Still a great and atmospheric story with some serious emotional gut-punches, though.
