I made 16 odd dollars off of trading cards during this sale and finally was able to afford the DCS module I'd been wanting to buy: the Black Shark. riding the nostalgia wave for Rainbow Six,also bought Takedown: Red Sabre, which is a piece of crap but is moddable, so some fun could come out of that. and Castle Crashers. which actually sees my controller, unlike that other game from this developer, so I can play with friends online and not want to smash my keyboard in the process

Dropped Guacamelee! around the 50% completion mark. I should remind myself from time to time to never play platformers on PC again

Volo, hourglass figure doesn't describe skinny women. it's only about hip to waist and shoulder to waist ratios

jeebuz, there are trading cards that sell at a game's price. just sold one for 2.60$, unbelievable

believe it or not there was a scientific research (social or biological I don't recall), that concluded women with hourglass figures seem more attractive to men, because survival of the fittest

GOG has BG 2 with ToB for 5$, maybe I should just go with that instead

it's buggier than the original at GOG? I'm tempted to buy it, but if it's worse than the 2000 version... also, Broken Age -66%, maybe I'll buy that instead

oh my goodness. and the timing couldn't be more perfect, right as I am going on summer break

if it's anything like Game of Thrones then I don't think it will be worth it. good concept, bad implementation

finally tried Guacamelee! and while my initial impression had been very good, in a couple of hours I was already tearing my hair out in frustration. it's a console game, and you can't get around it. I'm not sure how it works on consoles, but on PC... first, it didn't see my controller. I figured, "hey, that's ok, I'll go with the keyboard". and omg it was a mistake, I should've just uninstalled it right then and there. the controls are terrible. unresponsive and clunky, for a platformer/fighting game this is the worst possible thing that could happen. doing combos feels like trying to perform Brutalities in MK. the harder platforming parts make me almost break the keyboard because the character sometimes does one thing, and other times - another, all in the same situation and with the same commands. but of course it has redeeming qualities. everything else about this game is great: art, how challenges are designed, level design etc. and it has a 2-player mode! if I had it on a console I would be happy with it, but on a PC, I don't know if I would recommend it.

heh, in some countries they don't even distribute original versions. I stopped going to movies a long time ago. it's a lot more enjoyable to watch movies on DVD

I'm surprised this wasn't branched into a WWI thread already no vidya game news to report?

I agree, being locked out of content as result of your actions in the game - i.e. the game reacting to your actions - is very much a feature, one that I miss in most games. that's the bread and butter of every good cRPG. I can't believe that there are people who would bitch about it

well, it kind of got out of hand when allies of both sides had to honor their pacts and get into what was supposed to be a fight between two countries. I kind of like it more as it's done now. war starts, the whole world condemns it but dares not interfere, because - grave consequences.instead of trying to zerg rush the opponent. I just wish wars would be settled in hand to hand combat. imagine whole platoons going at it.

um, what's a "cainist"? I don't think it has anything to do with the Old Testament, has it?

Chomsky is a pretty cool dude, dunno what's wrong with his view on things, it fascinates me. but, aren't all wars pointless and sadistic? I mean, best case scenario: your country was invaded and you have to stop the invasion, in which case it becomes a holy war, a just cause. doesn't make it any less cruel

two Zoes

I was one of the volunteer testers on Gunpoint, I loved it, but after playing through each level multiple times I kind of got tired of it. it's a nice concept, it does have good music, I liked the puzzles, would recommend it to anyone.

nah, she burned too much of her fat on the hips, they look like male hips now. she should be an hourglass. example:

no hips - no care

too close to Eva Mendes. can't beat that

no, it was Ian Svenonius and friends

my guess would be a celebrity or two happened to get one and exposed kids to the new trend. I used to hang around the hardcore crowd in Russia, some of them would get certain haircuts that had been popular back in the late 80s, when that kind of music had been booming. when I moved to another country I got myself that haircut as a token of... of something. 4 years later the whole damn town has one just like it, and I'm not special anymore the plebes finally caught on
