So the alienware gamepass giveaway randomly started working for me just got a code and another month for recurring payment opt in. So if it wasnt working for you yesterday try again.

So far I have spent $2 this year and got to play Crackdown 3 and Outer Worlds day 1! Phil Spencer is reaching GabeN levels!

Will never ever forget the time when the new website wouldn't log me into my account for a giveaway after using my correct password which is baffling since I logged into Steelseries' giveaway website just fine.

Nowadays, I often ignore Alienware's giveaways because of how slow it is to level up there.

Haha it locked me out of my account today for the same thing! So i made a new one for a code.

Gotta say something about that Sega Genesis Mini:

holy shit the library of games are really hit and miss with me

Road Rash 2 = Fine
Sonic 2 = Fine
Light Crusader = hard
Mega Man Wily Wars = holy shit people can complete this?

I think I talked with one of the developers and don't know why I recall PC and specifically a demo on Itch.io, I can be wrong, tho.

I'm sure it's gonna be PC, that's not what the finger crossing was for :rolleyes:
 
It's not like anime fandom where most of them know they're on some government watch lists or some shit


The sonic fandom either doesn't know or doesn't care they're on a lot of government watchlists

like most fandom there are some legit creepoids in that fandom it's nuts

Speaking of Sega, they should really develop a Sonic Adventure Remake. I loved that game on Dreamcast and have i on Steam but I am scared for the 1999 graphics.

Adventure Remake likely wont happen because Sonic Team wont listen to any ideas from their fans. They didnt even know people wanted Sonic Adventure 3 until Forces came out.

Honestly wouldnt be surprised if we ended up getting an Adventure remake but with Wisps shoehorned in.
 
Anyone else's steam been acting up lately? For example sometimes (a lot) the store page is just black and I have to exit steam and relaunch to use the store. Also the library wont let me click anything but Steam itself isnt frozen.

The MHW Iceborne site has a lot of interesting info on updates to the PC port with Iceborne's release! DirectX12 implementation, more graphics settings in general, day-and-date HD Texture Pack, and more.


I think I can see why it was delayed with all the work they've seemingly put into it.

Also I must not pay much attention but some one here has mentioned this game before right? or maybe it was in Era

I'm not sure who it was, but thanks for the heads-up.
I like the look of the screenshots users posted in the Steam community section.
It's a very interesting, peculiar look (like it's footage from a surveillance feed).

Don't thank me, thank the Steam user review thing that was added not that long ago, it should a review for this game and I decided to check it out. I guess the feature works after all

Hellblade is quite a beautiful game, and I really love their implementation of a photo mode:
A2FEC4DA3F9BA4D0AC4896F54D7DE40122A8672B


1FE52917285BE22F214566F8C41FC241D7BDCED8

0FBF6F485E2439D77E23D0C451E9F64C222ED143


Actual game is pretty interesting, even though the combat is really not my thing. It's all fine if you want to mix up the classical take on third person melee fighting, but if feels like the game is just difficult by taking away proper view over the action (camera too zoomed) in, and restricting your speed of movement (via tank controls, essentially) The combination isn't "innovative" it's just garbage. I respect experimentation, but sometimes it just blows up in your face.

I'm also not so keen on their take of mental issues, mostly because it's so on the nose. If the game didn't hit you in the face with the fact that Senua is a bit looney, but instead left it up to interpretation, I might respect it. As it stands, it feels overly dramatic and fake

After you finish the game, my advice is to check the videos they made on the mental issues' stuff. Pretty interesting, it may offer you a new perspective...

I have been lurking at /r/Civ for a couple days now and apparently there has been a couple of signs that there's a third expansion coming to CIV VI and I would love it to be true.

CIV VI is great and wouldn't mind getting more of that CIV goodness in 2020. Fortunately since Rise and Fall was announced in November 2017 and Gathering Storm in November 2018, the announcement might be really close. I will be paying a lot of attention to Firaxis social channels next month :blobmelt:

You don't know the things I'd do just to hear of a port on steam

The writing in that game is the GOAT

yeah, i really wish they would .... it's pretty much the only one missing really ... with stuff like Colonization (the original and the remake), Pirates, Starships, Railroads, Ace Patrol, and almost all Civilizations ... the only ones missing are Civ, Civ II and Alpha Centauri :(

Dunno, but I will play the hell out of both CIV VI's next xpac and Humankind. Can't wait for them.

How do you level up in this alienware thing?
Click to expand...
You do the 2 quests that are available. "Outerworld" and something else. They are in the tab on the right of your screen. Then you wait. It took a few hours yesterday for those points to appear and for me to become level 2 :cautious:

I do wonder what the fuck Valve used to convince EA out of all publishers

They showed them a list of their games released this generation sans sports titles:
  • Anthem: disastrous shite, bomba
  • Apex Legends: huge hit that tumbled off a cliff post-launch
  • Battlefield 1: really solid
  • Battlefield 4: disastrous shite that turned really solid
  • Battlefield V: mediocre shite still plagued by content issues, bugs and player negativity
  • Dragon Age: Inquisition: decent game that squandered any remote momentum it had with no follow up 5 years later.
  • Mass Effect: Andromeda: mediocre shite, bomba
  • Mirror's Edge Catalyst: mediocre shite, not quite as bomba, but still a slight bomba
  • Need for Speed 2015: shite
  • Need for Speed Payback: shite
  • Need for Speed Rivals: decent
  • Need for Speed Heat: looks like shite already
  • The Sims 4: mediocre, now monetized out the ass to "fix" it
  • Star Wars Battlefront: mediocre
  • Star Wars Battlefront II: shite, but much less shite now
  • Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order: looks slightly generic, but it'll make a bajillion dollars since we haven't had a proper Star Wars story game in probably a damn decade at least
  • Titanfall 2: excellent, except you know, you sent it out to die against Battlefield and CoD: IW
and said "You probably need to put all this shite on more storefronts. Even if we're taking 20-30%, at least you won't be locked in a hole with Origen with all your shite games that no one wants to pay attention to, especially if the lootbox regulations come and destroy the golden goose in your sports games."

Give me Sonic Adventure 3! That's more like the first and less like the second. Can't say I remember much, but I think I liked the first one more in that it felt more open?

1 had a hub world and the other charas routes are short ut showed potentiel in what gameplay can be done with them. Except big, his was fishing minigame meant to showcase dreamcast visuals at the time and i still dont know wtf to do it :v
Adventure 1 being based on at least sonic stage design but allowing to use other characters unique skill set for alternate routes can work.
Imho sonic games work better as short experiences, no jeed to justify a 40-60 price point. 20-30 range is fine to price it ad without need to go too far with production costs.
