LEGO Batman 2 I say is better for story and characters talking to each other in the cut scenes for more than quick jokes. The city can feel a bit empty however.

LEGO Marvel s the better world with a lot more to do and find, poor Stan Lee. However it is the easiest to never finish due to fatigue. Story is fun, but not as well written, closer to old comic plots rather than the full just basic parody Batman 2 did of old World's Finest.
Has far better characters to play and see interact with however, with a wee bit more variety such as each flier being slightly different to each other.

Both good and of course which IP you enjoy will go farther in entertaining you. LEGO Batman 2 especially with the various movie music

LEGO City Undercover for Wii U is the best for story and fun world to play in.

Is 'adult content' a euphemism for boobs?

And dicks. But this revelation doesn't surprise me. My guess is if any game has extreme violence (like Manuhunt 2) and was marked, it wouldn't be surprising either. Guessing the AO content warning is mainly to also help warning for games with Screenshots, as it was kind of silly that a game like Rust are being sold, but anyone who takes a screenshot of the nudity in that game got a warning.

Go!Go! Nippon has adult content?

Also I thought Loren The Amazon Princess was censored on Steam.

NSFW Warning

It seems the guess from earlier that one of the reasons Steam added the adult content warning for visual novels was not wrong.

Actually how is Killer Is Dead? It didn't seem to get good reviews but I notice a lot of people obviously talking about it.

The impressions in this topic and the Killer is Dead topic, as well as on Steam itself, are both far more positive than I expected them to be. I liked Killer is Dead myself, not my favorite Suda51 game (out of his recent games, I think Shadows of the Damned was my personal favorite), but has a lot of style, fairly decent substance, and apparently people are saying the new content (files about the game, cutscene theater, etc.) is making the story a lot easier to understand. Which is a good thing as so many people who finished the original game complained the story was nonsensical when honestly it only took another playthrough to understand a lot of it.

So I've been trying for well over an hour, but Firefox's javascript engine bugs out every time I try to implement the required selectors that are needed to make the Enhanced Steam feature work that lets you choose which homepage tab you'd like to see by default.

Sorry Firefox users, looks like this feature will be "Chrome only" for the time being.

It's such a left-ball thing the game throws at you (and one other scene but its less surprising the second time). Besides these scenes, the game seems like it could of been made for kids with the content there and most of the tone of the rest of the game.

I love achievements that feel like they're teasing you/are kind of funny that are timed perfectly when they unlock.

The other example I can think of is the perfect timing of when you unlock "This is the part where he kills you" achievement in Portal 2.

But I did this already, and when I take off the cable, it disconnects.

And this thread moves so fast, that I can't even find that one post, where a very kind soul explained to me, how I could see if my dongle were compatible.

I'm gonna use this whole night making my controllers work wirelessly.

EDIT:
OH! Now it works wirelessly! At least I know my dongle is compatible now.

I wonder how I'll get the Dual Shock 4 to work then, since it should have been the same process.

To see if it's compatible, goto Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Devies and Printers >Right Click your Dongle and goto Properties > Click the Hardware Tab > Properties > Details Tab > Drop down to Hardware IDs and cross reference with list in the link I gave before.

A store mispriced Nexus 7- 32 GB for 180 euros (was supposed to be on sale for 223 euros, down from the regular 280 price).

Any way to buy from Gamestop Digital from outside USA?

I bought Riddick from there last year from my Canadian address but now I can't buy from them? Heck, even my account history doesn't remember my purchase...

It was possible to buy from outside the US when Impulse was still in use, and when separate accounts existed for Impulse and GameStop, but it does not appear to be possible to buy from outside the US on the Gamestop Web Store.

In addition, both Paypal and their credit card processor require exact address matching; you cannot fake the address by falsifying a ZIP. It may be possible to buy from the store using a GameStop gift card or anonymous prepaid credit card, but it's not clear how you'd get those things outside the US.

Yup, just tested again. My Dual Shock 4 won't even work with cable. Strange.

RADical ROACH Deluxe Edition

After being on my wishlist for a long time, I finally got to sink my teeth into RADical ROACH (RR). Unfortunately, I would have to say the end game did not meet my high expectations.

RR is at its heart a side scrolling shooter. You take on the form of a Roach and are tasked with shooting other similar animals as they swarm towards you. As a concept, it is highly original and could be described as genre defining. However there are a number of things that ultimately let the game down.

Firstly the Roach doesn't quite seem radical enough. There is no skateboard or basketball cap, let alone a backwards facing one. There is a red scalf, but that just doesn't fit in with my vision of what radical can be. Then when you consider this is already the "deluxe" version, all hope for future more radical DLC is slim.
When you combine this with amazing graphics and production values it is almost something you can overlook, but I just couldn't get past it. Also the gameplay is completely crap.

So although it is a clever idea and as much as I tried to love it, I would have to suggest it is a pass.

GAF mobile has options to disable images and avatars; you'll find that it uses very little bandwidth that way. Unless you're, like, foreign roaming with 3MB of data to use for the next 6 months, I'd recommend mobile over some weird frankenstein experience.

Keys for Air Control are up on Groupees

and QUBE Director's Cut will be free for existing owners beginning next week

Hey guys, we've received tons of emails asking for game keys, which will take some time to go through. So instead of sending a game key to each person, we're looking to make the game free for all existing players. To let you know, putting a price tag on the game for previous owners was never a scam opportunity (we also hate those things) but a business decision that has clearly turned out to be a mistake. We would rather have a bunch of happy fans that enjoy playing our games so thanks for letting us know that we screwed up. We'll make sure we inform the community before we make any rash decisions in the future. Regarding having Director's Cut as dlc, we'll see if we can merge that with the original but can't promise anything just yet.
We've contacted Valve to make the game free for existing users so it should pop up in your Steam library early next week. We'll keep you posted and put a sticky up when it’s ready.

Why wouldn't they reuse a mechanic if it makes sense to do so? Games borrow mechanics from other games all the time, but Ubisoft is the bad guy because they're borrowing them from their own games? Last known position is a perfectly reasonable tactic for AI especially in a game world where the player is constantly monitored by cameras.

[MUnited83]

They could always add it in later if I'm not mistaken.

They can't actually, as there is only one sub. There is no region-specific ones. The max they could do would put the TradingGifting region restricting on it, which would only apply to gifts on inventory. If you buy it now and activate it there will not be any region lock.

It's actually a pretty straightforward idea for when you're designing AI that is sweeping a room. You would always want them to start where the player was last seen and then fan out from there if they can't find him.
