I just noticed that we are again about to overtake Achievement Hunters on mgs
http://www.metagamerscore.com/most_score_crew

play some cheevos games, steamgaf, you can do it!

If only MGS included Uplay chieveos. We'd be top of the world!

Actually I've put on quite a bit thanks to the YouTube and Amazon Instant Video apps on the Xbone. Oddly they are all 0 rated achievements but because how MGS calculates score based on percentage achieved they are around 200-500 points a piece.

yeah, I was wondering why uplay is excluded on several occasions, even Extra Life achievements are supported now.

They're not public available via an API so you'd probably have to scrape them of of Ubi's site. I think you also need to be signed in to grab them which as well all know is flaky at best.

I tried Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae on Hard, fast switched to Easy, and not because enemies are strong, just because they are bullet sponges and they take years to be defeated.
In like 4 minutes I completed stage 1, while on Hard I barely reached wave 4 because the game spawns way too enemies and they take 15 minutes each to be killed.

I'm not sure you are supposed to play on hard at the start, as your abilities carry, it made for the time when you are way stronger, I mean for a new game plus.


North America only, as per usual.

even better, now I won't be tempted

Yeah you are meant to play one difficulty and go to the next, as you buy the upgrades. You should play hard when you have all upgrades.

So what do we reckon the odd are the Lightning Returns ends up being featured on the first Steam of the Autumn sale? Probably not on sale or maybe something like -10% off for preorders but otherwise it's really going to get a bit suffocated. Of course this is Squenix and they'll probably just dump it on to the store for purchase on 10th and that will do for their 'marketing'.

In speaking of achievements, does anyone use TrueSteamAchievements.

It's similar to astats but with more stats to see

Here is my profile for those who wants to add me and compete with me :p

Huh I used to use Treu Achievements way back when and did sign up for True Trophies but never really bothered with that spin off site. I guess it's time to join the True Steam Achievements site then.

Interesting, didn't realize they added support for Steam achievements.



Guilty Gear Xrd -Sign- might be earlier, as ASW have said they do have a game coming to PC in December, could be something else of course.

Could very well be the case, considering they have Blazblue: Chronophantasm Extend releasing in early 2016 as well.

I think I'll just beat Easy and that's it.
I thought this was a proper game with a story mode, scenarios etc, instead it's just a group of arenas and nothing more.

Just woke up and found the Vendetta key waiting in my email.
It was actually weird, because they sent two keys, the first activated
Raven's Cry - Pre Order Package
The second activated
Vendetta - Curse of Raven's Cry Deluxe Edition
I do wonder why that is. Did they strip the old license off people? I can't see it as a gift in the license list, like it was before when I sent the email with the request. Or maybe activating their key turned my gift preorder in the retail? Still weird.
