I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?

The first Bioshock? There are probably unclaimed keys floating around from many of the times it's been given away/bundled.

Mafia II is...A kind of mediocre third person game pretending to be an open world game. Really lovely period era set pieces and assets to admire. Playboy centerfolds to collect. A nice story, well acted. Just sort of lacking any real stand out mechanics to praise and it doesn't really do anything with being open world, y'know?

Republic Commando is a FPS with a pretty simple tactical command mechanic. It's been so long since I've played it, but I remember enjoying it. But I'd recommend it more strongly to someone who's got some enthusiasm for going on a Star Wars ep-I-III binge. Watch the animated shorts and then play it, something like that.

With SCP, you have to do some things that end up making your computer think it's an actual 360 pad, meaning these programs just don't see it.

Yeah, I removed it all before going with DS4windows... and then I had issues when it came to the controller being recognized over USB, I think? Whatever the problem was, I ended up saying "eff this, I'm going back to SCP server".

If I end up with a "fresh" install after upgrading to windows 10, I'll probably give DS4windows another go.

I don't suppose someone wants to split A Hat in Time's DDE? $20 each and you get access to the beta, which you can play now.

Edit: Went ahead and bought it. PM me if you'd like to pick up the spare DDE for the aforementioned price.

Edit edit: Actually, make it $15.

Edit edit edit: Sold to wilflare.

Go for Mafia 2. The game got 50 pin-up posters as collectibles. It's a reason enough to play the game

Call me crazy, but as a person who generally doesn't like JRPG's, like at all, I almost want to play through the FFXIII games just to see what all the talk is about as I know next to nothing about them and I wouldn't mind trying them out to see if my opinions on JRPG's have changed at all.
Click to expand...

If you want to judge JRPG genre, FFXIII would be the worst choice to pick.
JRPG is a very broad genre, each title can be totally different with the other.
What JRPGs you've played in the past?

A couple of Final Fantasy games like X and a PSP one I can't remember the name of, Valkyria Chronicles (which I liked), a few Pokemon games if they count and Persona 4 on the Vita, that's about all the ones I've played to any really length, most other ones I've played I've given up on pretty early.

If you've played both FFX and Persona 4 and didn't like them, then I'd say stay away from FFXIII lol.
Both are considered few of the best of JRPGs around.

I played Persona 4 Golden on Vita and sort of liked it, the high school drama was more fun then the actual gameplay but I grew tired of it after about 10 ish hours.

All I want is for Sega to pull some strings and get Atlus to put at least Persona 5 on PC.

We're way overdue for some Persona love ;-;

Servo's hitting Steam tomorrow, as I understand it.

Been a long time since we got a game from some of the Age of Empires 2 folks.

EDIT: Oh, cool, Solarix is coming out today.

EDIT 2: Oh, wow, Chroma Squad out of nowhere. Awesome.

Almost done with my hard play-through of Space Marine, I'm on the final chapter right now. Game is 75% off (8.24$CND) until May 4th, and it's totally worth buying. JUST the base game tho. None of the DLC is, even if the DLC and game are like 15$ together. The DLC is all for the co-op and multiplayer which are pretty dead. It's such a ludicrously fun shooter, even if you aren't a fan of Warhammer. The way enemies explode like ripe tomatoes is so damned awesome.

Hmm, I can't seem to set my resolution in A Hat in Time at or above 1680x1050, and the character/world texture quality settings are locked to High even though they go up to Ultra.

Edit: Found ResX/ResY in one of the ini files.

The founders alpha starts today (Thursday) and as per usual, Stardock published games even during alpha are done through Steam. The Early Access isn't happening anytime soon though, the only way to join the alpha is to buy it directly from Servogame.com.

I've no idea how this game is going to turn out. It's supposed to be RTS with emphasis on Servo units and upgrading them, but the price point of $20 is what worries me. Can it really be a great RTS at that price point. For comparison, their other upcoming RTS Ashes of the Singularity is priced at $50.

Lets be fair though, summoners rift is unreadable and muddy as fuck now...

Or well, dunno bout unreadable, but I think it's outright ugly. The thing I always liked about LoL, and the thing I thought they really had going for them was that... Fantastical colourfulness, silly look, you know?

I really liked that.

I will say, however, that the Faceless Rex courier will likely be added within a few weeks. :3
