Dawnguard- #1 in sales since it came out Dishonored- Barely in the top 20. Why do people have such shit taste? The master race is supposed to be better than this!

Probably because most people have Skyrim already, and this is only $20 as opposed to $60.
Doesn't mean they have "shit taste".


I have Dishonored pre-ordered

[Kirbyguy]

Might and Magic Clash of Heroes is on sale at the Gamestop client. Seems to be steam redeemable as well.

[Derrick01]

Guess I need to learn to convey tongue in cheek moments better. I don't even have dishonored preordered yet since I'm waiting for GMG to wake the hell up and put it on their store.

But really though...dawnguard #1? Eww.

[morningbus]

It ain't easy having standards that make you hate indie games and big budget games.

[Dizzy-4U]

I can't install GRID for some reason. It says connection timeout and it's the only game in my library that does that.

Can anyone with the game try to install it, please?

[Fireblend]

Huh, so Darksiders has no graphic settings at all? Aren't there any files I can modify or mods I can play with to get it to look nicer, or is this as good as it's going to look on my PC?

[Derrick01]

Hey there's still plenty I'm looking forward to playing for the rest of this year and next year, all big budget games too (probably?). It's just the dumbed down ultra casual stuff like Skyrim that I hate.

[DTKT]

I give up.

I can't figure out when Derrick is outright baiting or serious. You win. ;|

You can force AA, lots of it.

[Boss Doggie]

It is disappointing though, to see a lackluster DLC to be a top seller. I miss Combined operations being on top.

Shouldn't really be surprising -- there's nothing really good to buy :s (edit: with as big of an audience that is), and ARMA II's market has to be getting saturated at some point.

I want to pick up some Codemasters games, hope for a franchise sale tomorrow when GRID 2 gets officially announced.

[Easy_D]

Is it dumberer than Oblivion?

[RionaaM]

Don't worry, I'm planning on picking up the Arma bundle when it goes on sale. Not gonna play DayZ, so I'll probably have to wait a whole year or more.

[Game Guru]

So, is anyone going to answer my question on what the difference between the Steam & GOG versions of Fallout are... other than DRM vs. No DRM?

[Nelo Ice]

Damn should've gotten in a UK 4 pack for BL2. Friend just messaged me on steam asking if I want in on a 4 pack lol.

[arts&crafts]

It is disappointing though, to see a lackluster DLC to be a top seller. I miss Combined operations being on top.

I feel like the ARMA studio is cashing in on Day Z. I bought it just to play DayZ and will probably never play ARMA. I am sure there are thousands of other people like me who purchased just for Day Z. It probably wouldn't make the top 10 otherwise.

[jediyoshi]

GMG 25% off = ORDER-NTCOM-PLETE
Dawngard = $15
Good till the 10th

It wouldn't. Arma was never super popular until Day Z got popular. It had a small hardcore audience but nothing large enough to warrant the sales it has now.

DRM is a big deal, essential mods like high resolution mods don't work on the Steam version.

[Game Guru]

That's it? Maybe it's just the console gamer in me, but I've never much cared for mods. So long as the game works as is, I usually don't mess with it. Modding is a perfectly valid reason to eschew one version for another, though.

[joseph1594]

DRM is a big deal, essential mods like high resolution mods don't work on the Steam version.

This is not true at all for the high resolution patches. You just have to go through a few hoops to get them to work. I played both Fallouts at 1920x1080. I am not sure about other mods however.

Edit: Game Guru, you will definitely want the high res mod. Otherwise, the game will look all fucked up color wise as it cannot display correctly.

[The Int3rsect]

Alright just finished Driver SF. Help me pick my next game:

Bastion
Ys The Oath in Felghana
Binary Domain
Darksiders

[The Grim Heaper]

Alright just finished Driver SF. Help me pick my next game: Bastion Ys The Oath in Felghana Binary Domain Darksiders

Hm... I'm fan of them all except Bastion, but Ys isn't very long if you only plan on going through it once. Plus it's totally awesome. I say Oath in Felghana!

[xJavonta]

Alright just finished Driver SF. Help me pick my next game: Bastion Ys The Oath in Felghana Binary Domain Darksiders

Bastion. Excellent game, does get a bit repetitive towards the end though.

I've only played Ys: THe Oarh in Felghana for a few hours on my PSP but it seems alright.

Binary Domain I haven't really played. Played the demo and didn't really enjoy it.

I'm going to start Darksiders today.


Verdict: start with Bastion since its the shortest

[Gez]

Dawnguard- #1 in sales since it came out Dishonored- Barely in the top 20. Why do people have such shit taste? The master race is supposed to be better than this!

Have you played and beat Dishonered have you? If anything Dishonered has one of the worst artstyles i have ever seen, you're the one with shit taste. Game is IP blocked in many countries aswell, Australia being one.

[jokingbird]

Alright just finished Driver SF. Help me pick my next game: Bastion Ys The Oath in Felghana Binary Domain Darksiders

I found it slightly funny that you listed them by length from shortest to longest. I say Binary Domain because I loved that game. The others are all good too. You cannot really go wrong no matter what you pick.

[xJavonta]

While I don't agree with his statement, I think Dishonored's art style is fantastic and looks great. It's super stylized, which is a good change of pace from the realism push we've been seeing a lot lately.

[Semblance]

Alright just finished Driver SF. Help me pick my next game: Bastion Ys The Oath in Felghana Binary Domain Darksiders

Binary Bromain, of course. The others don't have Cain or Big Bo.

[Danneee]

EDF is $9.98 and can be activated on Steam.

Whaaaat, this is on steam?? How is the pc version?

Oh, and I cant play my copy of binary domain because of that damn nvidia optimus...

Uh... My version of Fallout 1, which is the GOG version to be fair, displays correctly. Hell, the only times I get funkalicous colors, it because I went from fullscreen to windowed on DOSBox.

I assumed you wanted to know the difference between the GOG version and the Steam version because you were thinking of getting the Steam version, which does feature this problem.

Dishonered also had this really wierd trailer where he basically backstabs/stabs for like a minute and i thought wth is the point of that trailer. Will definatly wait on that game.

[Game Guru]

Ah, I was just curious since I was considering Fallout 2 and Tactics which might've been worth the price the entire collection was selling for. So does this mean the Steam versions use DOSBox whereas GOG uses the Windows version? Avoiding a crappy version of DOSBox I can understand.

Is anyone else having problems with Steam? It mostly won't let me log on and when I do I it will not let me make a transaction.

[camerooni]

Dawnguard- #1 in sales since it came out Dishonored- Barely in the top 20. Why do people have such shit taste? The master race is supposed to be better than this!

Because only American's who can buy it? And the American market has been dictating the games industry for far too long?

(But in this case they may actually be right about Dishonoured - great team behind it, great potential, but it feels like they're trying to sell it to frat boi's and can't even get that right)

[camerooni]

Whaaaat, this is on steam?? How is the pc version?

Don't get too excited.. it's the sequel.
It's not like it's Onechanbara: Samurai PC Slayer or anything :p

Sleeping dogs OT is up, if you get it on Steam before the release date you get the Triad Bundle for TF2 which costs $19.99/£15.99 - of course you can craft them or get them at drops.

Just a few posts and I'm already a bit hyped for Sleeping Dogs. Thanks GAF. It's not gonna be a day-1 title though, I haven't done that in a while + backlog lolol.

Plus after the list of DLC in the official thread - yeah.. I think I'll wait for the 'complete edition'..

[UnluckyKate]

Having trouble with the wired xbox360 controller on PC: it randomly makes the switch tabs back to windwos...

I feel it something with the triggers... Anything I could do ?

Did you download the drivers?

Homefront is $6.78 and activates on Steam as well.

I just bought the above, but the version being promoted on the front page is the Ultimate Edition, which includes the DLC and is less than a buck more.

Edit: And with that, quote for a Homefront key. Gone.

Could someone tell me what's the worth of a Dota 2 invite right now?
It's been a while since I had a friend who needed an invite... and now I need one.

[DOA]

The Haunted Hells Reach is on sale at gamersgate for $4.99 and activates on Steam with achievements. The 4 pack is $14.96. Youtube Neogaf Thread Homefront is $6.78 and activates on Steam as well.

Hey there's still plenty I'm looking forward to playing for the rest of this year and next year, all big budget games too (probably?). It's just the dumbed down ultra casual stuff like Skyrim that I hate.

I feel so lucky in that I can enjoy all manner of games, both indie and big company, irregardless of their budgets or fanbase or even units sold, simply on the basis of whether or not I find it a fun game to play.

I love Skyrim. I love Plants vs. Zombies. I love Frozen Synapse, and Stone Soup, and Spelunky, and Indenture, while at the same time enjoying the DiRT series and Railworks and Call of Duty and Minecraft and Diablo III.

I feel so sorry for people like you Derrick, people who can't simply enjoy good games and appreciate the positive in any game instead of focusing on the negatives of all of them.
