I can work that out for you when I have some time, a Mod might have stats, but I would assume yes.
You don't want to know.

I was not expecting a second thread so soon.
Like love.
Wow new thread such fun much entertainment
BTW: some updates on me building my PC (aka the most interesting thing happening in SteamGAF today)
1) apparently the CPU went in fine, but of course I'm totally waiting for a fireball coming out of everything as soon as I switch the power on
2) my cat jumped on the table when I was installing the heatsink, I was about to kill her
3) mobo grid is apparently the hardest thing to figure out together with the huge quantity of screws the came with the case. I really don't know what to do with them, so I'll probably just feed them to the cat and call it a day
And now! Onto plugging every plug on every pin around!
If you don't hear from me in the next couple of days, I'll probably be struck dead, so make sure to name OT3 to me, k thx
It's a pretty great feeling when you power it on and the motherboard logo appears on the monitor.
Can we have OT3 or will we go into episodic format after this?

THEY SEE ME STEAMING
THEY HATING

Re: #3, depending on the case, the standoffs are usually there already and the rest for mATX/other form factors are with the case, not the mobo. Mobo only has the screws to secure them to the standoffs. Make sure you screw them all down.Wow new thread such fun much entertainment

Why not? It's like people proclaiming some new game the GOTY in January, with 11 months left in the year.

Since this is the Definitive Edition thread, everyone should get new, derpy looking Saoirse avatars.

Ah, that new thread hype.
Alas, it seems Valve has closed my ticket with a message stating that due to the fact they are unable to locate records of me purchasing Half-Life (it was a gift, which they don't seem to note as being different), no further action will be taken on their side.
I just don't get it.

The alternate one they have up in the store is pretty good, they should've just stuck with a larger version of it
STEAM Announcements & Updates 2014 The Third - Redefinitivly Maybe
I'm afraid I can't do that, Dave.
Saoirse is cute and all, but If I had to abandon Olivia Wilde to jump on the SteamGAF blondewagon, I'd probably go with Amber Heard.
Didn't you see JaseC's avatar?
Tried playing some more ACIV today and I just can't go on. There was this tailing mission, oh god. I forced myself to finish it, but it was awful.
I feel that this game could really benefit from being much shorter and much smaller in size. I've been playing for 20 hours now and it's all been pretty interesting and fresh. But I'm only on Sequence 5 out of 14 now and I feel like I've seen everything this game has to offer now and it's all just repeats from here on out. I mean, I had lots of fun the first time I took on a fort. Then I did it again and again and again. Now I've conquered a sizeable portion of the map, I'm essentially sick of doing these damn sieges or whatever you call them, and I still have SIX more forts to go. That could be said about every other gameplay aspect.
But then again, the copy-paste principle is the staple of the Assassin's Creed franchise. They essentially make a number of mini-games, put some of them in the game world and make some of them part of the story. The first game had like four activities repeating over and over again up until the end, this one has like 16, but what difference does it make? Even the setpieces aren't exceptionally nice in this game: once you get used to the sea, you'll notice that much of the terrain look the same, as well as the cities (the only remotely interesting urban locale is Havana, the other two big ones are bland and generic). Ugh. I had so much fun during the opening hours, but now I see that this game is no different from its lacklustre predecessors.

OT3 is going to be an HD Remake.
On topic: why these strategy are so addicting? Besides my brother playing Toki Tori in my laptop I've only played CKII in this week.

Didn't get it.
New thread ! Yeah ! Maybe I will play some goddamn game now. Between family, financial and moral trouble I didn't play much these last few weeks. A little early access games that were really early, some sim city 4... Really need to rekindle the flamme.
Gaming downtime, it happens, never satisfying though.
But boy do this new year has potential.

Started into Broken Age. I'm REALLY enjoying it. Just everything. The music is super good, and the artstyle looks super nice in direct feed (vs. the off screen documentary stuff). Glad I backed, and can't wait to play more!
