Seems like Fanatical is having another bundlefest from tomorrow onward which judging from their previous ones will result in mostly rebundles, some sort of sleazy "mistery bundles" (aka lootboxes) and one decent bundle that will most likely be the first one they reveal.
You're right, but historically there's a chance that the one decent bundle could actually be very good. Bring it on
Dang, my cousin got his GTX 1060 laptop recently and these bundles would've been perfect for him, but he is watching his budget even with such cheapo stuff XOYou're right, but historically there's a chance that the one decent bundle could actually be very good. Bring it on
Money wise things are looking pretty decent right now. I will be waiting until my next paycheck next week and going from there I might buy the Logitech G560. They will cost me Just under $200 USD, not only that it looks like I can get them as early as tommorow with 1 day free shipping.... Hopefully the speakers do sound nice.
I was planning on buying the Speakers later in the month, but now I feel temped to just buy them now since it won't make much of a difference if I buy them now vs later this month.
By the way with the set up of the G560 is it normal to have the "subwoofer" (is that's what it is?) On the ground and everything else on top next to your monitor? From my experience with speakers I've typically seen the subwoofer on top of a stereo and with my PC set up having it on top would not really be possible.
Is Steam labs helping get more Indies find an audience?

I have played Links Awakening and I liked it, it plays like the SNES games and onwards which is nice. I have tried multiple times to play OG Zelda and I just can't play it more than 5 minutes (it has not aged well)
This individual is saying that Indies in 2019 may actually be doing better than they did in 2018. I wonder what the possible reason behind that might be? Is there more "big name" indie titles that have been on peoples radars for years that are only now releasing?

I view them sort of like RE6 but more extreme - there's some good systems in there if you put in enough time to deal with it.Flashy special attack does not mean good combat (look at nier tomato)
is it just me or does this realy look worse and worse with each video?

I finished a game! Mad Max, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Upgrading the car was fun and I very much like arkham-style combat so Mad Max's combat system was right up my alley. I also really liked that you have a shotgun with you so you can replicate this scene at any time:
Plot twist: I also finished a second game! Decay of Logos. It was... kind of ok for its price, a game that is heavily inspired by Dark Souls but can't come close to it in pretty much any area. The biggest problem is the combat system which is just not fun at all. It looks nice and the world has some interesting lore that kept me going until the end but the core gameplay is just not good enough for me to recommend it.

Need some recommendations for some sweet story games to play with my fiancée. She loved Edith Finch and hated SOMA and Gone Home.
Anyone have any ideas?
She also really liked a lot of Telltale stuff and Life is Strange.

To the Moon
The House in Fata Morgana.
Also, I hear Saya no Uta is wholesome, family fun. Might try that too.
Only if your fiancee is Samuel L. Jackson
Finally made it to Teer Fardee in Greedfall Spent a few hours in the starting area finishing up side stuff for XP.
Combat in this game can be brutal, this is one game I am going to need to go with high defense over offense for once

I cheesed the first boss using my fire arm but enemies not being stun locked adds to challenge, as if you are not careful you will get hit hard
I decided that I'm just going to get them. I missed the time limit on Amazon so I will no longer be getting them tomorrow, but instead I will be getting from from Walmart. Amazon and Walmart are both selling them (new) for about $172 USD, the difference is that I have to pay tax on Amazon and that's brings the price up almost $20USD. It will take 1 week to get it from Walmart but I would be saving $20USD doing that and I'm guessing I could just return it at a Walmart store in case I have issues with the speakers?
The Vanishing of Ethan Carter ? Firewatch ? The Painscreek Killings ? Bohemian Killing ? Her Story ? FMV games like Late Shift or Dr Dekker ? Oxenfree ? The Novelist ? Scratches ?...
Didn't include any point&click game here, but I can provide a list if it can fit
I hated it toooooYeah, a separation.
I’d love a point and click list actually.The Vanishing of Ethan Carter ? Firewatch ? The Painscreek Killings ? Bohemian Killing ? Her Story ? FMV games like Late Shift or Dr Dekker ? Oxenfree ? The Novelist ? Scratches ?...

I can only imagine how loopsided the views/visits (I think Steam calls them impressions) for Rotastic must be.
Also are almost 30k people watching the Focus Home stream?
Well at least they know how useful it can be, that being said maybe Valve will do some more work on it since there are people asking what the game on Stream is, the Steam labs stuff do have a feature where along side the video it will show you a link to the game in question. I'm guessing that Valve has it set up where the stream can be shown on a "sales page" but it still has to be assigned to a particular game? They do have it where you can switch between multiple stream like on Steam.tv and also on the TGS page.
Okay so now that I have a new speaker system (I'm still not sure how I will be connecting it though since I don't know if USB, AUX, or BT will give me the best sound quality. ) I plan to also upgrade my mouse and maybe also my keyboard as well. The mouse I need to replace it's still "okay" but the main issue I have with it is that it doesn't right click properly anymore. I have to click really hard in order to be able to zoom in games and even when just doing windows stuff. Oh I was also planning on trying to get a new SSD during the holiday season as well. Depending on how much I have maybe I will get a 500GB NVME M.2,

achievements carry over, yes
brb downloading now I didnt know this. I have GamePass until 2020 but wanted it on Steam for the achievements lol.

This isn't quite what you're asking for I think, but maybe Knights and Bikes? I'm playing it currently and the gameplay is simple and fun, huge bold art style, and the story is actually quite well done. And 2 player coop. Really liking it.
How much side content did you finish by the time you completed the game? Mad Max is redonkulously huge!I finished a game! Mad Max, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I was not sure if I should use USB,AUX, or BT, but from the looks of it USB is the way to go. I will use AUX for when playing on N/S or PS4. BT will mainly be for my phone.
Tomorrow we hear more about Steam cloud X N/S Online. Tuesday is when the UI update happens and on the 18th/19th is when SRW pre-orders go up (don't fail me Bandai)

First time playing anything really since summer, using a controller felt so odd, Gears assumed I preferred inverted controls (i hate that!).
Went thru their forced tutorial which was terrible, and now waiting to play thru campaign with my buddy, but we keep blowing it off,
yesterday he had family over, today we are ready but I'm watching NFL games, and he just went idle....uhh oh lol.
I do have Spyro and Madden downloaded however. So at the very least I will try to play something today.
Weather is crappy and Yoshi is sleeping , lets hope that situation holds.
Live update: my buddy has returned! hes going thru the tutorial now, while i finish up a NFL Game. btw NFL Gamepass is better than xbox gamepass!

How stupid is buying a 720p TV in 2019?
I greatly regret selling my CRT...

Tomorrow is a Holiday in my country so I’ll wait until nighttime to order them so I get them on Tuesday.
why do you wanna buy a 720p tv? if its for classic games, pre ps3 consoles will still look weird on it and will probably have input lag. there are probably better options you can use then buying a tv that's not good for sd or full hd.
That also use to be my country as well but that was a long time ago. I have not been there in over 19 years now
Hopefully you enjoy the speakers, I did hear that there are some issues with them but overall they are great speakers. the main issues seem to be the subwoolfer and how it's always on, so if you wanted to play late at night and for it to be "quite" that does not seem to be a thing and how the sound of the thing goes from soft to really loud at 14/100 (volume setting wise)
I have my Gamecube and my PS1 still with me and those would benefit from a SD TV. As for buying a 720p TV depending on the size it will at least be dirt cheap? If you are buying a small 24" TV than you will just be down $100USD just to play some older games and have them not look at bad as they would on stuff over 1080p. But if you were getting something over 40" than that will just look bad. I do like how TVs do have modes that let you play in the 4:3 display ratio for older consoles but you do get the black vertical bars though.
I myself may end up buying one at some point and if I do it will be something small. Maybe someday in the future we will see some retro TV stuff come to market
So a new VN just released on steam called Pizza Game and for some reason there's a line of dialogue that flat out spoils another VN Zero Time Dilemma (Zero Escape 3) randomly.
So I guess anyone playing or interested in playing Zero Escape should avoid Pizza Game. Even if ZTD is really polarizing its still incredibly shitty for a game to spoil another one. Especially in such a blatant way.

There's a text option in the true route that says something to the effect of 'Delta is the antagonist of ZTD Boom spoiled."

This was my childhood by the way
Just felt like sharing since it's slow right now
The boomerang one felt weird to me even back then.
Fun times
Also was G4 TV popular when it was around? I never watched that channel so I am not too familiar with it's content and what made it special.
Oh and I was going to have 4 days off of work but I asked if I can work tomorrow. Well I got to pay off the speakers I just got somehow.
Speaking of Speakers, I was planning about a year ago to buy some "Edifier R1280T Powered Bookshelf Speakers - 2.0 Active Near Field Monitors - Studio Monitor Speaker - Wooden Enclosure - 42 Watts RMS" from Amazon since they were only $100USD and I was planning on buying a record player to play my Vinyl OST collection (including the Nier OST). I have yet to buy a record player though and I will likely not buy one for some time since I don't have room for one in my room.
I have a decent sized game OST catalouge

Mad Max took me a whisker over 100 hours to 100% when I played it back in the day - and I loved every minute of it.
It's not a game for everyone, but gee, when that gameplay loop clicks with you, it really clicks. Would love a sequel [sad face].
Real talk, I still use a 720p tv as my primary monitor.
Really ensures I get the highest FPS possible w/ my RTX 2070
Did we already mention that DiRT Rally is 100% off aka free? I know it's old and been bundled to death but free is free.
I want to hook up my miniconsoles (NES, SNES, Genesis, heck even the PS Classic and the next PC Engine) which all of them output 720p. Plus a PS2 and I want to order an Analogue Mega SG
If you have the budget for it, perhaps consider getting an upscaler like Framemeister. This will output 1080p via HDMI. It's well documented by the retro community too, so you won't have any issues finding tips and tricks if you're stuck.
Yeah, thanks to my friends in my Steam feeds I grabbed it yesterday.
Both TV at my home is a 720p LCD and a CRT lol. I want to buy a 4K TV but there is no place for it I would rather not drill through concrete.

I have a 4k but I only have my Xbox One X hooked up to it. Everything else looks hideous.Both TV at my home is a 720p LCD and a CRT lol. I want to buy a 4K TV but there is no place for it
If I have a 4K TV, I want to hook up PS4 Pro to it and make it as Netflix/Youtube player. Dual monitors setup is not sufficient anymore for my needs lol.
Btw, is HRD needed? That other forum made it looks like if a game or a TV doesn't have HDR it means the end of the world.
