Yeah. French girls are great in bed.

Ouch, bad luck, Devils.

Maybe now was a bad time to try to change bank card on Steam..

You have more headaches than anyone I ever heard of. You have a brain tumor.

I loved Far Cry 3, but it did get a bit repetitive after a while. And I really wish there was some sort of progression in that game (either RPG mechanics or STALKER-ish weapon upgrading). There is actually kind of a weak RPG system in the game, but it felt too shallow and easy for me. I would still recommend it though. Great game.

I don't know. I loved Saint's Row 2. It was a good mix of semi-realistic story (yes, really!) and bat-**** crazy antics. But in Saint's Row 3, it was more like.. "LOOK HOW CRAZY WE CAN BE!! LOOK!!! WE ARE THE CRAZIEST ONES, AREN'T WE FUN??". They dropped any semblance of reality and just gave you superpowers basically from the start (halfway through the game you even become an invincible killing machine with endless ammo). I think Saint's Row 3 took it a step too far. I loved it, but it wasn't as fun or funny as Saint's Row 2. GTA4 sucked for me. I dutifully completed it after I bought it, but at no point did I actually have any fun. I have tried reinstalling it two or three times, but I just can't replay it (was going for some achievements). It's just too dull. And as some of you have already mentioned, they filled the game with horribly unlikeable characters.. that kept on calling you every five minutes, no matter what you were doing! Combined with the worst world design of any of the GTA's and "realistic" driving (god, that's laughable), that makes it a bad game for me. It's actually so bad that even though I bought both the expansions, I just can't force myself to download and play them. GTA5 looks a lot like an extremely beautiful GTA: San Andreas to me. And as San Andreas is my favourite GTA (and one of my favourite games period).. WOO!!! Can't wait to try one of those bicycle races

I have to be honest this was the type of response I was expecting. I am still surprised by the general desultory and lacklustre comments from most people. I think Rockstar have an absolute winner with this game. I can't ask for anything more from the series. There seem to be so many new things to do apart from the exciting main storyline The bicycle racing part alone sold me 100% on this game. That just looks like too much fun!

Half-Life 2 75% off.. Yeah, that's exactly how good the last few sales have been for me. Put that price on Skyrim: Legendary Edition and I'm game.

I think that GTA5 trailer looks.. like my dream game come true, basically. And I hated GTA4! High hopes for this.

Crap. I missed a guns & ammo discussion. My superpowers are failing me Anyhow! There's an old castle here where I live, that's open for guided tours. The last room in the tour is the castle armoury. It's basically two big rooms joined together, filled with historical weapons, ranging from American indian bows up to tiny cannons (standing on tiny wheels on the floor). In between are the most amazing rifles and handguns you will find. The place is absolutely packed with weapons, hundreds of them. The weapon that impressed me the most was the 12-barrel musket. It had only been fired once because the man who fired it died from the recoil: the stupid gun fires all twelve barrels at once! But it looks amazing. I wanted to take pics, but you're not allowed to bring a camera in there. Frustrating.

I very rarely buy full-priced games. But it has nothing to do with Steam sales or Steam at all. I've just never thought most games were worth the cost, at least in Sweden. The few exceptions are almost always games I am certain I will like, for example Piranha Bytes games and the GTA's (and now Borderlands and Far Cry too). Of course, after the snorefest that was GTA 4 and the mediocre effort that was Risen 2, not even they are guaranteed a purchase from me anymore. I also wish the publishers would hire more modern economists. I mean, it just feels like their entire business model has not really changed since the nineties, while the market has changed beyond recognition. It used to be that only the full price games were quality games and anything that cost less sucked (back in the Commodore 64 and Spectrum days). Nowadays it's almost the complete opposite! So called AAA games very rarely do anything for me while I am looking forward to much more modest titles like Grim Dawn and the likes. The biggest difference is that if I'm on the fence about a game, I am ten times more likely to buy it if it's 20€ than if it's 40-60€. Thus, if other people are anything like me, the loss in short term profit is offset by us impulse buyers. It just must be better to get those 20€ than nothing at all.

I thought this was kind of funny: http://espn.go.com/nhl/conversations/_/id/9448246/alex-ovechkin-washington-capitals-tops-nhl-all-stars-earning-6th-selection It sounds cooler than it is. What it means is that a number of professional sports journalists probably didn't know the Caps switched Ovechkin from left to rightwing this year, thus accidentally voting for him as a leftwing.

Bah. Weak. Nothing is scarier than the Swedish police. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_61s62WKVio

I looked at the most pre-ordered items in Sweden's biggest games retailer recently. To my not-surprise the PS4 was at the top of the pre-order list. But what did surprise me was that Xbox One was second, ahead of such titles as GTA5 and Battlefield 4. I guess it really only is us geeks who care about this debacle stuff.

Go and have a walk wank, you daft bugger. Fixed that for you. You guys know nothing about health.

Here, let me translate that latin phrase for you all: "my argument is ****, so I'll start using latin phrases in the vain hope that someone will mistake it for intelligence"

Well, so far he's providing pics and you guys **** all. Always with the negativity and whining. Sick of it.

Hey, BruceVC, has anyone ever told you that you're disgustingly positive, polite and friendly? I think you're the only person on this board where the moderators could turn off the profanity filter and noone would ever notice. EVER.

I was going to take pics on my lunch break.. and of course it started raining. Pretty sure no-one is interested in Swedish raincoat fashion.

Test Drive! I absolutely loved Test Drive Unlimited. Can't some big studio pick it up (Ubi, I'm looking at you) and just add that final little polish that would bring it from good to great? Never liked the sequel as much, but I think that's because of expectations. Everyone expected the kinks to have been ironed out from the first part.. but they weren't. Instead they had managed to add new ones.

I'm pretty sure science still has a lower fault rate than just guessing.

If they had any humour, they should post a pic of them all lying in a big pile with Feargus sitting on top. PILES OF OBSIDIAN

To anyone saying their delicate ears need 320Kbps sound or their ears will bleed.. I once made a sample of 10 songs on this very board, where some of the songs were 320Kbps and some were downgraded to 160Kbps and then upgraded back to 320Kbps (mp3 is lossy, so the songs were actually 160Kbps, but looked indistinguishable from the untouched 320Kbps songs). I then challenged all the self appointed audiophiles on this board to download the song pack and tell me which songs were 160Kbps and which songs were untouched. Noone managed. Do I really need to do this again?
