So, what's the over-under on the Amazing Spider-Man games getting delisted at the end of the year? They're Activision, about 5 years old, and a licensed title, so I want to grab them before they're gone.

The Franchise pack has been $20 in the past, so it's kind of hard to justify spending double that right now, but if it's in danger of being delisted I'll bite the bullet.

Actually, speaking of delisting, is there some kind of list somewhere of currently at-risk titles?

 

[Nete]

I also should reorganize my Library. The Playing, Backlog, Finished, Unfinished, Crap, Multiplayer... categories worked fine when I had 100 games. At over 400, not so much.

 

[GRaider81]

I have my games in genre categories and with games im playing in favourites. Stops me from having a ridiculous backlog to look at despite actually having a massive backlog.

 

[IndustryX]

Think hard if those games are good enough to pull you away from CSGO. If not, just get the skins.

Think i want to get Firewatch due to the short story, and the fact I can get through it relatively quickly but still get a good amount of fun out of it. I really liked Gone Home and this seems like a somewhat similar experience.

Don't want to make any large commitments with my time with the timesuck that CS is for my gaming time.

How long is Ori approximately to beat?

 

[Mr_Kuschels]

I randomly came across Iron Fish, which has a similar atmosphere. Don't know about the story though.

Thanks, I'll check it out.

1. You can convert GOG version to Steam version.
2. Expansion pass is $15 @ GOG

So you own GOG version of TW3? What is problem again if all you want is €15 season pass from GOG to go with your GOG version of TW3? If argument is that you want all your games on Steam (some do make it even today) then I would ask why you have TW3 on GOG in first place.

If you own Steam version of TW3 yeah, you are going to be screwed out of few extra €'s for expansions while still getting equal if not more content than in full priced 60-70€ game.

How do you convert GOG version to Steam. All could find was a place to convert a boxed retail GOG key to Steam and not an online retail GOG key. Can you convert it to Steam if bought directly on GOG?

 

[Grief.exe]

XCOM 2 is more expensive than Doom and Deus Ex.

 

[TheLight]

What does everyone think about Dragon Ball Xenoverse 1? Good port?

This doesn't seem to be accurate. You're probably thinking of the GOG "backup" program, which is actually the opposite and still doesn't apply to 3 for some reason.

Edit: Ah, there's an exchange program for physical copies of the expansions.

should be this, doesn't work for all your gog games. Not sure if this is what you're looking for though, or what people are talking about lol.

Anyone have Mortal Kombat X on PC? I'm tempted to buy XL but don't know if its any better than it was at launch.

 

[ASilentProtagonist]

Got a feeling Ryse, and Killer is Dead will be featured on a humble bundle one day.

 

[Nudull]

I thought PC got screwed out of Kombat Pack 2, but I guess XL fixed that now?

You can get Kombat Pack 2.
It is part of Mortal Kombat XL's DLCs.

That's Steam -> GOG, not GOG -> Steam.

Killer is Dead was already in a Deep Silver Humble Bundle a few months back.

I thought you can only convert Steam to GOG, but never GOG to Steam. I can only speak on Witcher 1 & 2 (I don't have W3). I remember I only had to redeem the Witcher 1&2 Steam CD Key on GOG's redeem page.

Firewatch is well worth it if you value those types of games by story content.

According to someone on Reddit, their online key didn't work. You need a retail boxed key for this, they were told.

It had taken me around 8-9 hours for a normal playthrough

 

[hitmon]

How are the FF XIII ports? Do you guys think they're worth $10 each?

 

[BoosterDuck]

XCOM 2 is more expensive than Doom and Deus Ex.

They're all amazing games but XCom 2 has a fuckton of content and replayability

 

[Nete]

According to someone on Reddit, their online key didn't work. You need a retail boxed key for this, they were told.

And it's actually mentioned in the page. In a not very clear way, but it's there.

Inside your box you will find a unique code allowing you to download the expansion from GOG.com.

What's this talk about voting for MGSV? The game came out last year and isn't illegible for GOTY 2016 award.

 

[BraXzy]

Not picked up too much in the sale yet, mainly some little bits. It has been handy for gifting people wishlist stuff for Christmas though!

Can't purchase the expansion pass and this is what they have on the order page.

"Please note that you are required to own on GOG.com to be able to purchase and play Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, The - Hearts of Stone AND Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, The - Blood and Wine"

I guess you need to buy Witcher 3 on GOG and convert it to Steam first.... I don't know

 

[Naked Snake]

The Steam awards. http://store.steampowered.com/SteamAwards/

ah, thanks. I suspected it would be something Steam related... lol

 

[DJSebolski]

Ah, nevermind

 

[BraXzy]

Anyone have experience with this game? I was really impressed after watching some of the videos. Looks like a good time but I'm still on the fence for the price though I suppose it did just come out so..

The demo is out and really solidifies the purchase. It plays really great, lots of fun and lots of replayability.

I didn't realise that had a demo so thank you thank you!

 

[Teggy]

I am installing
Snakebird

Also currently organizing my game collection into categories

I must know, how does a game qualify for NOPE?

 

[inky]

XCOM 2 is more expensive than Doom and Deus Ex.

XCOM 2 with a 50% off discount is about the same price as Mafia 3, Civ VI and Deus Ex with no discount where I live. Trips me up that some publishers follow the different regional pricing recommendations (after the region locking/local currency changes to Steam happened), but not for every game they publish.

I understand it's not the same thing you are talking about, but for me particularly, the fact that it launched at twice the price of every other game out here means that a 50% off (which is on the low side compared to something like Doom's 66% off) is actually more like a 25% off anyway. I don't imagine they will ever bring the price in line with their other releases.

Don't know how the pricing looks for you, but the fact that it is more expensive after discount probably means they think they can get away with that this time. Game sold really well from what I recall.

 

[Stevey]

It's so good. Wish I didn't keep getting lost though.

Just follow the green lights

Ori's main story is approximately 8 hours according to How Long to Beat. http://howlongtobeat.com/game.php?id=36755

 

[More_Badass]

Used a headset for the first time. Holy shit. I need to replay Inside again now. And Devil Daggers. And Battlefield's going to be insane

 

[Tizoc]

If it is a game that I disliked or don't want to play, or would never play again.

 

[petethepanda]

Wow, these five "Whoa, dude!" nominees don't exactly match the category, lol. I expected the likes of Pony Island and whatnot.

 

[Phoenix RISING]

1. You can convert GOG version to Steam version.
2. Expansion pass is $15 @ GOG

I tried buying it and it would not let me purchase the expansions on GUG without buying the base game.

 

[The Dear Leader]

Like every? Or to play a game? It's pretty shocking how good headphones can pull you into a game.

And Alien Isolation

Yeah same, pretty annoying.

I've seen this said a few times recently, it's weird to me because I never use anything but a headset. In part to keep the noise down but I like the surround sound headsets give. Spread the word!

 

[Naked Snake]

Crap... I've been mulling over whether to buy MGSV from Gamebillet since yesterday, and now that I finally decided that I want to buy it... it's out of stock

Oh well, wasn't meant to be

Anyone know how long ago it went OoS?
