Reading about ZTD is making me really excited about it. I'm not sure if I'll manage to beat VLR in time for it, as I'm already tackling Steins;Gate at the moment (granted, I'm pretty close to the ending, but considering it took me 6 months to get near the ending of that one, I would keep my expectations in check), but it seems to be shaping up into a worthy conclusion to the series. Also, it's gonna be pretty weird to play each installment in the series on a different platform (999 on 3DS, VLR on PSTV, and ZTD on PC).

Huh. The level design reminds me of another game that I can't place my finger on. Looks nice, anyway.

You ever feel like a summary gives away a little more than necessary? That's how I feel about this one. Heavily hints at the agent being a double agent at the climax. Gonna be sitting there playing it (if I ever do) like... he's gonna screw them over, and I'm still going.

oh ya, I'm so with you on this one, I prefer summaries/descriptions that don't really sum the game.

For you.
I wonder if Battlefield 1 will be the first in the series to have good gunplay and good netcode. Nah who am I kidding?

Sorry if somebody already asked that, but is it worth to buy Mafia 2 at this current discount? Or should I wait for the summer sale for (maybe) a bigger (which I actually doubt will happen) discount or a better deal?

At $6, its a steal. Could it be cheaper, yes but it isn't going to get that much cheaper.

Yeah I will probably wait and try to finish Mafia 1 in that time.

Never was a fan of Mafia 1

People who bought Gone Home from MacGeist bundle are reporting the game has been revoked, so check your library.
Also new games on GOG Connect.

Do you not get some sort of notification when this sort of thing happens?

Yes, you should receive a notification when you open Steam I guess.
 
Really happy with the Wolfenstein 2/TEW2 rumor, loved both games.

Still had some hope for Persona 5 in 2016, fucking hell...

Just like last year half of gaf's most anticipated get pushed back, for P5 it's actually the second time lol.

Not really gaming related, but it's Steam related.
Here is a developer showing how to create Steam achievements and how code to unlock achievements in GameMaker Studio

Looks like it's quite tedious to add new achievements. Now think about the devs who added over 1000 achievements in Tales of Maj'eyal and have to keep track in all of them, all of the names, when and where to unlock them and all that

Wow 1600 achievements, that's impressive. I thought 500 achievements in TF2 was a lot of achievements.

I wonder if they got a coder that's in charge of only adding achievements and coding them into the game :)
Whoever did it, they certainly showed dedication/patience for adding so many achievements. God damn, lol

Thanks for posting that video. Really neat to see some behind the scenes stuff.

Keep in mind that this game can cause anger and rage so keep your gamepads tied to your hand just in case XD
This one's not too difficult, to be honest. If you wanna destroy your PC, try the first one. Now that's HARD. The retro levels are impossible.

Reading about ZTD is making me really excited about it. I'm not sure if I'll manage to beat VLR in time for it, as I'm already tackling Steins;Gate at the moment (granted, I'm pretty close to the ending, but considering it took me 6 months to get near the ending of that one, I would keep my expectations in check), but it seems to be shaping up into a worthy conclusion to the series. Also, it's gonna be pretty weird to play each installment in the series on a different platform (999 on 3DS, VLR on PSTV, and ZTD on PC).
I'm in the same situation, only that I'm going through the true ending of 999 for the second time, and will play Mirror's Edge Catalyst afterwards. Still, I'm getting ZTD day one.

VLR took me 31 hours. I think it was the fastest I ever beat a game of comparable length, though — less than a week of daily 4-5 hour long sessions.

With Xcom 2 coming to consoles I expect to see a Xbox One controller patch at some point. Even though it doesn't matter to me.

Looks like the 5th is Bleak: Welcome to Glimmer

Also:



is the little image you get when you pre-purchase. Not sayin' it's.... but it's...

I doubt Walking Dead is in the bundle. I think Groupee at this point do this on purpose with the hope to sell as many bundles as they can with pre-orders, because usually even "strong" bundle like Bemine turns into crap.
Like they teased something using a drawning similar to Tormentum Dark Sorrow cover, but instead that game seems to be not included in the bundle.

Steam download servers down?

I have two games in my update queue, Dominions 4 and Straiga, both seem to time out during downloading the update...

Was there ever a balancing mod for Dom4 kinda like Dom3 had?
Because the vanilla balance of those games is pretty bad.
 
I'm one of those weirdos who preferred Bad Company 1 to 2. Must be because I've never played a huge multiplayer map on a console before. That shit was a game changer.
