I've got Steam on my current desktop (1.5 year old Dell, nothing impressive at all) only because I got the 'free' PC copy of Portal 2 with the PS3 version. I am currently in the process of gathering parts for a new build; if I buy this on Steam tonight, can I transfer it over to the new PC once I have it up and running?
I really want to try this game out after reading so many positive things about it, plus what I have heard of the soundtrack ROCKS.

VHS release is even better news.
All games are tied to your account. They are on your account. No limited installed. No "deactivations" needed.

Cool, thanks for the info.

Why wait? Start playing tonight. A year and a half old PC should be able to run it no problem.

I wasn't going to wait. That's why I was asking if I could transfer it over once I get my new one finished.
Is it fairly easy to play with a KBM?

Thought you meant just the game, not saves, since it reads that way. And it plays fine with K&M.

The extra chapters will just take a few min. You should have stopped stressing towards the end and hit glow status.

Anyone know what the song is called that starts 20 seconds in?

Thanks. Was just about to say I found it, looks like the game version is a little different. The original is called Return of the Night Driving Avenger.

Just checked their twitter for the first time in weeks (I'd forgotten the game existed, the wait has been so long) and the latest word is that the mac version will arrive next week. Which is nice.
Still, having bought it in early December while on sale after seeing the developer say that the mac version was imminent, it does leave a bit of a sour taste in my mouth given that it's now three months later.

I think the only way is to increase it in your system settings.

Gah, any way to get a 360 pad to work on the mac version?
I'd like to know this.

just got this on steam. very interesting game but the controls take a while to get used to as im not used to playing with KB/M. is this the best way to play it though?
I played it with a controller and never felt disadvantaged... I actually struggled to see how anyone could play it with a KBAM setup. But then, some people can't see how anyone is able to play this with a pad, though, so you never know which is better until you try, I guess.

i might buy an X360 wireless receiver - do you have to use the 360 pad or can anything with dual sticks work?
I dont like the keyboard controls im just not used to them.

Just finished this. Started playing during the holidays but then put it down for a few months, which seems dumb in retrospect. Because man, what a wonderful mindfuck this was. Gameplay is balls-hard and surprisingly deep, in the sense that I was still fine-tuning my skills right up to the final stage. However, what really kept me going was the dreamy slash nightmarish 80's presentation.
One of the best fucking soundtracks of all time didn't hurt either.

Awesome. I'm downloading it now.
MOAR DETAILS.
Just tried out the beta patch. All that seems to be new is online leaderboards and slightly better performance. The game runs smoother than before, but now there is some pretty noticeable screen tearing that wasn't there before. I hope that they implement a toggle for enabling/disabling vsync, as it appears to be off by default now.
Unfortunately not as long as I would have liked. It's just a few hours of investment, in the end, but it definitely sucks you in.
Might wanna edit out the first portion of your post, just to be safe. Dunno how kosher that is here.

Yeah, same here. I've had this problem since the day the beta was being offered. I tried again today thinking maybe it had updated.
Is this beta not broken for everyone else? I get shitty framerate and a ton of tearing, despite the fact that it used to play fine. It also erased my save file, but whatever. I'll play again. Really shitty beta so far.
Finally got around to playing this game last night. This game has been sitting on my hard drive for 6 months, that's 6 months I could have been playing this game, but instead I had to wait for the hype to die down. Dear sweet lord this game is amazing.
My question to y'all is does anyone notice like a similar feeling, tone, and presentation in this game as what Geasshopper has going on in No More Heroes?

Go play the old stuff Cactus made pre-Hotline and then rethink that.
I probably won't do that any time soon so tell me what your point is.
