None. GFWL's sunset date is still ~7 months away so I wouldn't expect the less proactive publishers to formally announce plans until the day is closer.Has there been any news on when / if GFWL will get ripped out of Dark Souls? Should I just bite the bullet and install it?
not exactly survival horror but you mentioned you like TPS and XCOM.Interesting list, I've heard of Deadly Premonition and from what I gather its survival horror? I forgot to mention that I love survival horror, so if anyone has recommendations in that vein I'm all ears.
grab The Bureau when it hits $15-20. The story is kind of lame but the combat is
oh also! how the fuck did I not remember to pimp out Alan Wake on pc? It's the definitive version.
A wise man with good taste indeed. But I have yet to try and play Alpha Protocol on PC.I can vouch for both Dark Souls: Prepare to Download Durante's Patch Edition and Alpha Protocol

This is what we know thus far:Originally Posted by Baron_Calamity
Is there an official GFWL death thread? I see threads for Batman, and Bioshock 2. I have a bunch of games in my backlog that have GFWL and I need to decide if I should play them asap before GFWL dies or wait till they are freed.
Capcom's supposed plans haven't been verified by anyone here (I tried e-mailing myself but was ignored), so take that particular source with some salt.All we know so far is:
- Batman: Arkham Asylum and City are having GFWL replaced with Steamworks (with the GOTY flavours already at this point)
- BioShock 2 has had GFWL replaced with Steamworks
- Epic is discussing internally what to do with Bulletstorm
- Codemasters is removing GFWL from Dirt 3, while Dirt 2, F1 2010/2011, Fuel, and Operation Flashpoint: Red River "are being looked at"
- Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet is having GFWL removed (no word yet on whether Steamworks will replace it)
- GFWL is being removed from various Capcom games, but again we don't yet know if Steamworks will be put in its stead
Everything else is up in the air at this juncture.
Edit: Added sources.
Get Fallout New Vegas, mod it to hell and back. You won't need another game for 80+ hours, it will look and perform wonderfully, and it will be the most rewarding RPG you've played in terms of quests and world building lore.So I've been out of PC gaming for about 8 years now.
Just ordered the parts for a new build and I plan to go balls to the wall this weekend.
What are the essential games that I need to buy on Steam? Let's assume money isn't an issue.
My preferred genres are RTS, TBS, RPG, and TPS but I'm open to trying anything really.
Darwinia/Multiwinia
Skulls of the Shogun
Path of Exile (free Diablo 3 that should have been)
Amnesia: The Dark Descent
Civilization V Gold Edition
Alpha Protocol because it's fucking GREAT.
Don't get Hotline Miami, do get FTL. Hotline Miami evokes and emulates infantile disposable trash, FTL evokes and emulates beautiful dangerous COSMOS.
For strategy check out Total War series. Not sure if Rome 2 issues have been fixed yet but Shogun 2 or the older ones hold very well and are awesome, must for every pc gamer.So I've been out of PC gaming for about 8 years now.

For indies grab Super Hexagon, it should be on sale for a dollar next week. Simple yet challenging game, good bang for your buck.
I'm middle ground for Alpha Protocol.Originally Posted by RealityExists
I'm anti-Alpha Protocol. I'm down for this debate anytime.
It had good ideas going for it but I found the execution to be highly lacking.
TO be fair I did play the PS3 version so im not sure if the PC version is better patch wise.
I'm leaning towards Juri. I already have an avatar that I'm using on another forum. Carey Mulligan is the one true waifu, though.Originally Posted by Jawmuncher
There isn't enough juri love in the world so that has my vote. Or Ryan Gosling there aren't enough sexy guys on GAF either.
I use Splashtop on my home network, and it's great. I played Rayman Origins the other night. Ran fine. I haven't used it away from home, though. That feature costs $16.99 for a year.Does anyone have any experience with any Android PC remote apps? Like if I wanted to play Football Manager at work, are they good enough for that?

My £5.75 wallet funds eagerly await DAO:U @ 70% off, had the funds for 75% like the previous sales but the bastards cut it down by 5 and and I was pennies short. Months later I'm now ready, I hope.
Unless I'm misremembering, I think the ITSP was confirmed to be moving to Steamworks in a tweet from the dev. But I have no idea how to search such things on twitter, so maybe I dreamt it.This is what we know thus far:

I'm saving a game and all it's DLC in my Library for maybe the cold Winter (to play all warm and comfy) and I'm wondering how difficult can it be considering I'm really bad at tweaking little things and I just want to improve the game without adding more things.
I mean, if it helps the game to look better, having less bugs, less crashes, faster loading and more details to the environment then I'm all up for it, but I wanted to keep story and the integrity of the game "natural" if you understand. My fears are justified because the lack of my own knowledge and I really fear losing saves or having constant game freezes/crashes.
It's really janky. Buggy as hell on PC as well. Character and difficulty progression is gimped unless you specialize in stealth+pistols (and if you do, some of the boss fights are way, way hard).Originally Posted by RealityExists

Still, made me swear much less than Witcher 2 did, FWIW.

Most games are fine, it really just depends on that game itself. Google it and see what ype of mods are about, but if it has Workshop support, even better.My good people, be honest, for someone who never heavily modded a game, how hard can it be?

Silly me forgot to add in the end.What's the game?
It's Fallout New Vegas with all the DLC included!
Marathon 2
Witchaven
Rise of the Triad
Nostalgia to the max, I never imagined I would find those games over here in Portugal, on a street fair nonetheless. 1€ for each too!
It depends on the game, what you're trying to do, and whether the mod is done by someone else. If you're just tweaking variables in the .ini config files, then it's not too hard, as long as the .ini files aren't baked into the .exe, which makes it harder to get mods working. If you're installing mods made by someone else, it's pretty easy to install those.My good people, be honest, for someone who never heavily modded a game, how hard can it be?

Most mods don't mess up save files unless you accidentally delete something important in the process.
You'll be fine, it's natively moddable so you can just tick and untick things you want to load. This is a good starting point: http://www.pcgamer.com/2010/11/02/25...ew-vegas-mods/Silly me forgot to add in the end.

Just remember that it's buggy even in a vanilla state, so you'll see things like this, mods or not:

Is this about what I said about asscreed or dead rising? what constitutes playing seriously?Originally Posted by Stallion Free
I don't apologize for guilty pleasures. I struggle to take blindly shitting on a series one has never played seriously.
if playing seriously means playing every game in a series or playing a game to completion, then I suppose I don't because I don't really have time for that. Does that invalidate my view? I wouldn't think so.

I had this thread bookmarked for later use for myself, should be helpful.Oh, that won't be difficult. There's a thread about it. I would link it, but I'm on mobile.

While it's a Steam thread and it might be a surprise these days, there are people here that still like physical copies. :-PNot to rain on your parade, but you know that the game is free?
I'm waiting on another Alpha Protocol sale. I'm digging spy things, lately.
