  1. So, it's pretty much confirmed that we're finally getting the Gold Edition DLC for RE5 on PC once the game transitions to Steamworks. About fucking time! I was already looking forward to replaying the game but now I'm even more stoked since I never actually played the DLC!

      RE5? I already grabbed it when it was on sale a few months back. It remains to be seen whether we'll have to pay for the DLC or if it'll be a free upgrade, though.

       

      Anyway, my opinion of RE5 is pretty much the same as with FFXIII: I understand why people had issues with it but I enjoyed it for what it was.

  2. Hate to break it to you but it basically goes on sale (almost) literally every other week. At least, it did last year. Atlus put their games on sale very often on PSN, especially the Persona series. It's become a bit of a running joke in the Vita/Persona community.
  3. Shut up! If Souls was a series of board games you'd be all over them, you nerd!
  4. Oh, yeah, I'm aware of that. I only brought up Fallen London because you mentioned that Dragon Age web game.
  5. They also have their own web game called Fallen London. Sunless Sea is based on that same universe. I checked it out because I was intrigued by Sunless Sea and the lore behind it is pretty interesting. You create your character and it mostly plays like a choose-your-adventure book kinda deal. It's very text-heavy but the writing is pretty good. It's a shame that it's one of those time-based action points kinda game, though. I just can't be bothered to keep checking it constantly throughout the day.
  6. Completely forgot but I grabbed these a few days ago. They were both dirt cheap on Steam. And with that, I now have all the Rain-Slick games. I should probably get around to playing them now... As for Outland, I loved what I played of it on PS3 but I never finished it. It's probably the only PSN game that I considered to be on my backlog but I could never be bothered to actually turn on my PS3 for it. I had been hoping to see it on Steam for years so I was really happy when it randomly showed up a few months ago.
  7. Lol. In your dreams, buddy. You're looking at a 2DS for that price. And it would have to be on sale.
  8. Damnit, I've been watching too many youtubers that cover Nintendo lately. I'm kind of itching to play a modern Zelda or Mario game now. :( Are they out of the hardware business yet? I wanna buy Super Mario 3D World on Steam!

      Nintendo is doing alright on their own...a lot better than Sega was with the Dreamcast.

       

      If the next gen or two nintendo starts going under then maybe I can seem them going multiplat..but honestly don't see that happening for a long ass time.

      Yeah, I wasn't being completely serious with my status. Sega already had a few other hardware failures before the Dreamcast. But still, it's nice to dream. :P

      Oh I was just rambling about hypothesis. Didn't think you really thought they'd pop up on steam any time soon. Lol....but maybe in a few decades?

  9. Oh goddamnit. I didn't even know they were making a new one. Or I forgot. Either way, this looks like absolute shit. Was the Timothy Olyphant one also full of needlessly over-the-top Matrix bullshit? I barely remember anything about it other than T-Bag was in it. Yeah, okay. I just looked up the trailer and it at least looks like a Hitman movie. It actually kinda made me want to rewatch it.
  10. Not really. There's no fatigue in P4G but running out of SP is something that will artificially increase the length and difficulty of early dungeons. There's a way to spend money to replenish it at some point but it's overpriced and not worth it. Before long you'll be able to clear most dungeons in a single sitting, anyway.
  11. Worst that can happen is a party member will bail on you if they get too tired. I'm not sure if it can actually happen on the floors or just when you return to the lobby, though. It's been kind of a while.
  12. Nah, just fired it up to make sure and when you start a new game it warns you that you can't change it once you start. You can only change it once you get to NG+, at which point you can customize it and (I assume) change it at will. Maybe that's what you're thinking of, Jack? Also, it's actually five difficulty settings: Very Easy, Easy, Normal, Hard and Very Hard. Personally, I'd recommend normal. Like I said, it wasn't very challenging. The game has this weird difficulty curve where it's actually more difficult early on because you have fewer party members and you can't replenish your MP. It gets easier later on to the point where most people recommend clearing the later dungeons in a single day, so that you have the rest of the month to focus on everything else.
  13. Super Metroid is so good. I'm criminally overdue for another playthrough.
  14. Couldn't agree more. P4 is the better game overall but I thought P3 had a much more interesting story. P4 was basically Scooby-Doo, which is fine but nowhere near as exciting as that whole end of the world thing P3 had going on. I'm really curious what P5 will be about. There's already been comparisons saying that if P4 was Scooby-Doo then P5 is Lupin III. I'm only vaguely familiar with Lupin but it already sounds like a much more interesting dynamic, imho.
  15. Life is Strange - Episode 1. I'm really glad I picked it up. It was a bit more uneventful than I expected but the characters were interesting and I'm really curious to see where the story is going, especially considering that what I thought was the premise of the entire game turned out to just be the opening scene. I fucking love going into games blind, I don't get to do it often enough. The only negative thing I can say about it is that there are a few really cringe-worthy lines in there. Most of the dialogue was fine but every now and then someone said something that just took me out of it. It's really not a big deal, though, just a little off-putting. I'm also glad to see Telltale finally getting some competition in this genre. They really need to stop licensing every damn IP under the sun and take some time to develop a new engine. Their current one is kinda shit and getting a bit old at this point.
  16. I've wanted it since it came out because of the positive reception but knowing I could've pre-ordered it for 13 bucks on GMG made it a little hard to pay 20 bucks for it. I checked Nuuvem just in case and it's 18% off right now. Came down to about 14 bucks after the currency conversion.
  17. And now we have a new shitty trailer for the only upcoming Persona game that actually matters. I'm not gonna lie, I am totally buying this day one. Hearing those tracks is actually making me want to start a new P4G playthrough.
  18. I suppose that depends what it was you disliked about P3P's dungeons. They're better in P4G but still kind of similar. It's not one uberdungeon like Tartarus but rather a series of smaller, themed dungeons. But it's still the same kind of procedurally-generated maze-like floors. There is a little more variety to them, though. I think P4G has an easy mode, so you could always use that to power through the dungeons and just enjoy the school life/story parts. Although, I didn't find the game particularly difficult on normal so meh.
  19. New Persona 5 trailer! Holy shit, that gameplay! That music! Visual fidelity and presentation look very similar to Catherine, which is great. Really digging the masked vigilantes angle for the party, too. Oh man, this is gonna be so gooooooood!
  20. It'll be your first Platinum game, right? If so, make sure not to neglect any abilities. From what I understand, in W101 some of them are pretty much mandatory but easily missable if you don't carefully check the store or wherever it is they're unlocked. Platinum's games are great but they almost always have a point where they basically go "Have you mastered all your core mechanics yet? Because fuck you if you haven't." Which can be frustrating if you're a newcomer who's been mindlessly button-mashing his way through the game up to that point.
  21. An early access game and a pre-order. I normally try to avoid both of those things but Darkest Dungeon looks so fucking good that I couldn't resist. I also recently sold a shitload of Steam cards, so I had a little over 30 bucks sitting in my wallet. That means I essentially got Darkest Dungeon for free and Oddworld at a 60% discount. That made it kind of easier to pull the trigger.
  22. Grim Fandango Remastered. Well, I'm really glad I've finally had the chance to play this classic. Definitely deserving of the praise. The characters, story, world and even voice acting are all incredible. Really glad I picked it up. I mentioned adventure game logic a couple days ago but fortunately only the second "chapter" of the game suffered from it. I probably just suck at adventure games but I ended up having to look up maybe half a dozen solutions for that part alone, more than I did for all the other sections of the game put together. Once I was past that part, though, I was able to finish the game without any issues. I ended up powering through the second half of the game last night, not stopping until I finished it at almost 5 AM. If Schafer's other old adventure games are all as good as this, I hope they remaster more of them. I know Day of the Tentacle is confirmed but, personally, I'm really more interested in Full Throttle. I'm also really excited to play Broken Age now, but I'm still waiting for Act 2 to drop on that one.
  23. Go into your Steam profile settings and you can set up a custom url, so it'll be something like steamcommunity.com/id/[your username or whatever]/
  24. If you mean from the original PS3 version, then I have no idea. I've only played the Vita version.
  25. So far I'm really enjoying it. The writing, characters and world are all really good. It actually feels like a Double Fine game in a lot of ways, so I'm assuming it was largely the same core team. The only issue I have is there's a tiny bit of "adventure game logic" to deal with. I can solve almost everything on my own but there's been a few times so far where I had to look up a solution. And it usually resulted in me going "how the fuck was I supposed to figure THAT out?!" and once even "I tried that and it didn't work!" Admittedly, I didn't really play many of these adventure games growing up, so I'm probably just awful at them. I also get bored very quickly if I spend more than 20 mins walking around aimlessly with no idea what to do.
