Deadshot (the sniper dude) in the bank. I somehow finished it with out him being knocked out or going over to the hostage and it gave me a checkpoint before I could do anything. I didn't receive any credit for it though and the quest marker is still there.

Huh? No I haven't heard or encountered that. I think the way the game reconised flags and how it checkpoints and saves is a bit wonky. I had an upgrade relock on me when I used a fast travel point but it didn't give me back the xp and several people are getting the synopsis unlock early leading to spoilers. It's a little rough around the edges.

Edit: Oh and as Nabs is saying there's a few geometry glitches where you might end up falling endlessly.

I hate that I can't get ME3 on Steam. It's delaying my inevitable purchase if the ME bundle on Steam.

I finally gave in yesterday and pre-ordered BF4, which required Origin. Unlike most EA games, I have zero confidence BF4 will ever be released on Steam, plus if it was release 4 years from now, chances are no one will still be playing BF4. I've been waiting for ME3 and Crysis 3 on Steam, refusing to buy them on Origin, but now I will, next Origin deal I see.

Dawwww. You missed a trick you should have looked at SteveWinwood's wishlist and said the top item. Unless you did of course hahaha.

He has DeathSpank and Brink up there. I don't make fun of people with serious mental issues.




DeathSpank was okay. But Brink. Damn.

Deathspank was available for less than 6 dollars, and Brink was kinda as well. Thanks gamersgate!

If he really wanted these games, he could've gotten them by now. I think I still have a leftover Brink key somewhere.

Brink had some fantastic ideas, too bad it was a major clusterfuck when it came out, pretty much killed the MP in the first week of release.

I'd try Brink for free, but I couldn't even bring myself to pay 5€ for it when it was in the bargain bins... same with Hunted: The Demon Forge (You hear me, Bethesda? Get that shit on PS+).
The concepts intrigue me, but I've heard so many bad things about both games that I can't really justify the cost.

Spec OPs Yay/nay GAF?

I know it gets a lot of praise around here for the story, but is it really worth picking up?

Hey guys, I'm super new to steam so bear with me.

Anyway, I've got two coupons that'll expire by November 16th --- 33% off for Foul Play and 25% off for Volgarr the Viking. Problem is, I don't really want either game, so I figured I'd offer them up here? In exchange for something I guess, since they're apparently tradable, implying that I have to take something for it. Not sure if I have to be friends with you to do that either.

I've also got a key for Mark of the Ninja if anyone wants it/wants to trade something for it, if that's possible.

I'd say no at that price. Amazon often has it for cheaper - they sometimes have *really* cheap 2K games; I think I got Spec Ops from them for $2.50. I also don't think the game is all that great, story included, but I might be in the minority on this one. Then again, I'm not the type who cares about ludonarrative dissonance or anything like that.

You should probably check this thread for trades: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=465398

As for those coupons, we all got 'em. You probably won't get much, if anything at all.

The rebate coupons are worthless because almost everyone has them but you can trade them away without getting something back.

Read OP next time:



I doubt anyone will give you stuff for coupons...

£10 Metro Last Light?

To me.

Is the DLC worth it? Buy now or wait for a goty edition?

Only Ranger Mode (the highest difficulty) and some weapon is discounted. I wouldn't pay money for that.

I completed the game three times and think even the gameplay is good. But it's worth it for the story and very unique setting alone.

Pretty standard third person shooter.

Laughable story. But that may be me that, not being American but from a country that don't really give a shit about its army, find really difficult to get some empathy.

I've written a long article about how it fails (for me, of course) its moral dilemmas, but I'm sorry it's in Italian, so I don't even bother linking it here. :D
 
I enjoy the Steam metro skin but I miss the filter by installed feature. Helps me focus on what to play when I can see it all in a short list.

No, I think it's one of more overrated games on gaf, tries to be Bioshock for the military shooter genre and fails.

K, the story DLC doesn't seem very significant, think I'll just bite now.

thanks for all the responses! I probably should've looked closer at the OP, my bad. I didn't know everyone would have them, but oh well.

I switch back and forth between several skins, but IIRC that option is available in Metro (and in every other skin I use).

seriously i don't want to play that ps3 shit port of bayonetta anymore, nor am I going to buy another 360 because the early units were shit, and none of the next gen consoles have backward compatibility either.

Come on Sega, what's wrong with you.

Typing of the dead is SO GOOD YOU GUYS

SO GOOD

It pains me immensely to know that Typing of the Dead 2 came out for PC in Japan only. It didn't come in any other region or platform.

They really should re-release it.

Edit: I really wish that would be what this is all about:
