Infamous rocked. One of the few games I've ever done two playthroughs of. In fact I think Infamous 1,2 & Folklore is the only games I played through twice completely.

I just bought it. I know it's supposed to be terrible playing it solo but it seems like it's possibly a good time in co-op. That's the main reason I picked it up.

Eh. I know I wont like it. I want to like it, as I liked Psychonauts, but I doubt I'll get far.
I loved inFamous 1/2, but hated Prototype. Ill have to give it another shot some time.

75% off or bust!

South Korea and Japan are higher than I expected.

I played it for an hour or so last night -- it crashed once when I tried to alt-tab out, but other than that it was stable.

So I'm new to GTA, which games should I get? I'm looking at 4 and San Andreas.
I haven't had any crashes at all on a normal/older system (Windows 7 home premium, 4GB memory, e8400, 5850). I posted some limited impressions earlier though I have no idea how far through the game I am.
You post this without any explanation. Am I to assume that you are one of the people who don't like the RTS genre and were upset when the game introduced it?
I wouldn't recommend it to someone who hates RTS with the strength of a thousand suns. But if RTS is not a deal-breaker, the style and attention to detail put into the world are worth getting the game in my opinion, especially if you have any interest in metal.
That said, it will presumably be 75% off in a summer or fall sale, so one might wish to wait.

It's not even good RTS. In fact it barely even qualifies that descriptor. Every single gameplay element is half-baked.

I remember seeing this sentence in this thread. I don't remember when.
The game was already this cheap if you preordered and sold the TF2 items.

Misread the timer, I thought it said 17 hours for the 15$ Max Payne collection deal. FUCK. Any chance it'll be back during the weekend?
Thanks!
How did you force AA? Have you tried using supersampling?
Heads up, if you are Scandinavian you can buy Dead Island Riptide at 95% off from CDON.

One copy per account and the key is available instantly via "Redownload" on the user account page.
I think Riptide could be worth 15 SEK/2.28 USD.
edit: It's Swedish CDON only and you need a Swedish Personal identity number to register an account.

I attempted supersampling and every other option I could find in CCC, but only morphological anti-aliasing (MLAA) worked. If you have an ATI card and use that, you may also want the box filter since I think using edge detect at that point lowered the performance. Bear in mind it is probably not an amazing-looking game. I think it's Unity with the Lightmass shadows, but it's quite simplistic. There are some neat style elements.
How can this be? Gotta buy it
Edit: Bought it, and activated as Dead Island Riptide Retail Europe ESD. What does ESD mean?
Edit 2: I didn't even plan to buy this game since it's just same game as the first one ^^
Is someone from there willing to buy me a copy? I love this kind of deals :lol
LOL, that's $2 well spent, thanks.

With FFXI released on Steam....do you guys think there's a chance that other games will be released from the series?
I saw a article a few days ago I think posted last month or so saying that FFVII will be releasing on Steam sometime later :O

^ Not exactly the same article but hey...its something?

"Electronic software delivery, Distribution of software by digital transfer rather than by physical media."
I have never seen the acronym used before but the North American version is the same.

It says in the page ot's the european version.
Also, could anyone help me buy the game?

XCOM vs. NBA?
Could anyone help me out with this? Don't want to put my cc nor do I want to have to deal with my bank calling since it'll be an overseas charge lol.
I was in my phone and the page didn't load right.
Original Dead Island couldn't be activated outside the US, IIRC, hopefully this restriction is off for Riptide.
Interesting.
I don't think that would work anyway. Registering on the site requires Swedish social security number. My Finnish id was no go. Obviously no price mistake on the Finnish CDON site, there never is when the Swedish site has one.
Can I buy this from the UK?
Edit: Seems not
if anyone could buy me a copy I can Paypal straight away plus a tip for the trouble Aww damn.

Also this.
I would pay someone who can buy it for me through paypal. I live in EU but i am not a citizen in scandinavia since they need social secutirty number for register.

Isn't it fishy? Why would a web store ask for SSN? To check you are from Sweden? Really?
Man, there are only four days left before I can finally play Fez.
