Looking quite good:

Seeing as Squenix only develop titles internally when they are an initial release and the vast, vast majority of remakes, remasters and ports get outsourced you can bet a company beginning with D and with 6 letters to their name will get their grubby mits all over it if there was a port to Steam.

Man it is so sad to see 1GB patch for GTA V and it is not SP content :( For me GTA V is perfect example where micotransactions ruined game. I don't care about online content that costs millions in game money to justify microtransactions. I don't want to play online mode full of cheaters and risk my account. Not to mention that online missions are mostly boring and same just in different part of map.

So just ignore the online mode? How does it ruin the massive single player mode and the other shit the game has in it?

Added Release Date – December 17, 2015

Wow, that's unexpected.

It was listed among Arc System's 5 Steam releases which included Under Night InBirth and Melty Blood.

Probably not happening unless Toby is feeling generous. Game is selling pretty well on word of mouth.

RIP Technos :(



Ooooor buy it during the sale, get holiday trading cards, sell on market for pennies. Win-win. Alright teeeny win.

Gracious 0% off.
Also, to save you some trouble, Shovel Knight 33% off, AssCreed games 40% off and SquareCells 0% off.

Shovel Knight went on sale for the first time during the Winter Seal, and for THAT game you lot said it wouldn't go on sale, and lo and behold it did.

So Undertale could go on sale, and even if it doesn't there's always traders who can offer it for u for like $8

I would hardly say GTA:O ruinined the single player of GTAV as it's still one of the best games I played this year... for the third time. Christ it's probably the best PC port this year as well. What does pain me is that with each new GTA:O announcement the more I feel that there will be no single player expansions like The Lost and the Damned or Gay Tony. I want my early years Trevor and Michael, North Yankton crime caper Rockstar!

Because online mode got tons of stuff that you cant get in SP. And i finished almost everything that interested me in SP. All vehicles and properties that were added after launch are online only.

You won't get it because of those micro-transactions.

Just look at changelog

https://support.rockstargames.com/h...GTAV-Title-Update-1-31-Notes-PS4-Xbox-One-PC-


New Galaxy Super Yacht properties are available to purchase from Docktease for GTA Online. The Yacht property does not count towards the property limit and they have a daily utility cost for owning one. The Yacht cannot be sailed; however it can be relocated at a cost to one of twelve locations. Up to three Yachts can be moored at each location at one time.

Everything they do they make sure you spend more and more money.
 
That Fallout 4 thread on the main board calling it perfect with lines like this "You can do whatever you want; but of course you will have to face the consequences" while thinking about how untrue that is makes me really sad. RPGs used to be so grand ;-;

I want to feel them inside me, telling me how beautiful i am.
Maybe I can put the steam games on a usb stick and then burn it and inhale the fumes.

So everything you did, all the hours you spent and all the fun you had is now retroactively ruined because they're updating the online mode?

Far as the SP mode went, I think it was Turfster's(?) criticisms of it that turned me off of it, for one thing.

I never said that everything i did is ruined. But everything post launch is ruined. They are focusing so hard to push Shark Cards with every update for Online mode and they are adding so much content in game that you can use only in Online mode just because. GTA was always SP oriented franchise and i am not only one who wants more SP content and story to be expanded but we won't get it because Online mode brings them so much money.

Hmh lets see how far I get with a 30 euro budget for the Wintersale. I'm going to have a system of sorts, like top 5 from my wishlist can cost up to 10 euro, top 5-10 can cost 7.5 euro and 10-15 only 5 euro.

Well could be worse. Just check out Destiny's latest...

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1157150

Now I know BF has had class unlocks in the £20 region but that's for everything. £25 is a bit fucking steep and that's £25 each per class. Why is it always that pubs feel like those without the time to spare should pony up dough to get everything unlocked? Why not just let them unlock everything and miss out on the vast majority of your game? Guess it's because folks are willing to spend that sort of money that these things exist.

Far as the SP mode went, I think it was Turfster's(?) criticisms of it that turned me off of it, for one thing.

Well mine and Turfster's opinions are like oil and water. Im water by the way :p

No, you actually said the game is ruined. And that's whiny bullshit. The content that exists does not get ruined because they update another part of the game you have no interest in. I'd love to see more single player content too but I'm not going to cry because they're focusing on the multiplayer aspect of it.

Off course I can be "whiney" and disappointed when company who earned more money on one game then other publishers/developers earned for all of their games released that year can't treat both groups of their fanbase equally. It is sad and very disappointing to see this and at the same time to see R* praised constantly. But again this is as always only my opinion.

Come on SEGA, the game is practically mod-easy just bring the series ot Steam already!

Well no offense, but I'll side with Turfster on this one ^^;

None taken. We all like or loath different things for different reasons. Sometimes we can all agree other times we can all disagree but (hopefully) we all understand that.

Although seeing as I bought Yakuza 5 the other day on PS3 despite not finishing 4 and not even started with Dead Souls I'm probably not doing your Yakuza to PC campaign any good while Sega are seeing console money from the likes of me.

yeah, that really is a problem... annoys me a lot too...

I am getting tired of gifs/pictures showing up on mobile even when I have them disabled.

This doesn't happen to me oddly enough I still see 'Display GIF/Image' when using mobile :X

Yakuza games are susprisngly long, here's my Y5 playthrough so far:
I finished Part 1 in 10 hours' time
I finished Part 2 in 10 hours' time as well
I'm 25ish hours into the game and while MAIN STORY is at like 40-45% complete, the overall game completion for doing all the side quests etc.? I only completed 10% of the overall game.
I don't intend to 100% it but damn I didn't know it'd take this long hah. At least doing side stuff in this game is fun because of the characters you interact with, case in point-

Plus it's heartwarming to see Kiryu and Saejima just see the good in people and life.

* picks try to bribe-option *
Main character: "Here's 50 bottlecaps"
Mayor of the biggest city I have found so far "No sorry I can't be bribed*
* Major turns around and walks towards a wall *


> facing the consequences

You can now buy class boosters for Destiny. $30/€30/£25 each

I guess Destiny reached perfect level to be released as F2P game on PC.

Wow, thats a lot of money to skip the supposedly boring part of the game which used to be the only part of the game.

Is anyone actually still expecting a PC release at this point? I just can't imagine this game doing well on PC at all with such a long delay and the games unfavorable reputation, even with people claiming that the TTK-Addon made it a less bad game.

SteamGaf I'm on the fence about that SNK Humble Bundle (the 10$ tier anyway).

On one hand it looks awesome. I love Metal Slug and arcades in general, although I never played many of those game (never had a good arcade here).
On the other I don't know... I assume that even if they're emulated the work fine? Do the steam ones have online play by chance?
