Nolan Posted September 15, 2012 Posted September 15, 2012 Any EVE players? Goonswarm is honoring the American player that was killed in Libya, there are other things going on as well including space stations names after him and such all. http://www.destructoid.com/death-of-eve-player-in-libya-attack-honored-by-fleet-235066.phtml
The Bard Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Think I may aswell ask one last time, seeing as the sequel will be arriving shortly: Anyone feel like getting online with me to play some Company of Heroes matches? Anyone even remotely interested in RTS should check it out; it's to my mind the best RTS ever made, and I'm really getting an itch to get into it again.
Deathjam Posted December 12, 2012 Posted December 12, 2012 Metro 2033 Steam code redemption for free. EDIT: Requires a like with a Facebook account.
drahkon Posted December 23, 2012 Posted December 23, 2012 (edited) Ok, Christmas is coming up and I have Steam keys to give away: The Binding of Isaac + Wrath of the Lamb DLC Closure - N/A Indie Game: The Movie Shank 2 Snapshot First Come, first served via PM please. And to make it a bit fairer (more fair? Oo) only one game per person. :p Edited December 25, 2012 by drahkon
Daft Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 I just spent 2 hours downloading BioShock 2 from Steam and it's failing at the "activation process complete unlocking your application" step after inputting the serial key. This is why I don't play fucking PC games.
Magnus Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 I'm surprised you didn't just wait until Wednesday to download it from PlayStation Plus.
Daft Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 I was going to but I wanted to see what it looked like on PC.
Domstercool Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 To celebrate the new year I played through Syndicate on the PC, heh. It's not a bad single player game, but nothing too great. I love the futuristic style and UI of the game. Got to test out the cooperative next. I hear that's really good.
arri Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 For me best game is Skyrim! I played it on PC but i'm thinking about buying it on Xbox too. Do you think it's a good idea. Are there any differences between plying it on PC and Xbox?
Deathjam Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 For me best game is Skyrim! I played it on PC but i'm thinking about buying it on Xbox too. Do you think it's a good idea. Are there any differences between plying it on PC and Xbox? Depends on how capable your PC is but generally, the differences between the two are performance. If you have a good PC, Skyrim will load significantly faster, save faster, have better graphics/textures, and generally be a smoother experience. You can also install mods for the pc version, that can drastically change, or add to the game or even fix issues that the developers, Bethesda, have neglected to fix. Only advantage that the xbox version has is that the dlc comes out about 1 month earlier on that system.
arri Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 I'd really like to play it again. I think i'll still buy it;)
arri Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Honestly - i prefer playing on PC - there is many game which can run only on PC.
gmac Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 I've got a few DotA 2 early access to give away on Steam if anyone wants them
Deathjam Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 I've got a few DotA 2 early access to give away on Steam if anyone wants them Ah same here.
Domstercool Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 I think nearly everyone has some DOTA2 keys. I got swamped in them and I can't give them all away. >.<
Cube Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Origin on Steambox is a very good sign for Steambox. I also have too many DOTA 2 invites (but I don't think I have Choze on my friends list).
Oxigen_Waste Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Guys, my brother just got himself a nice new high end pc for his birthday, can we both use my steam account at the same time or what?
The Bard Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Nah, you can't use the same account while online - obviously that's why PC gaming works so well on Steam; piracy is negated through that means. To be honest though, it won't take him long to get a decent library - there are always weekend deals/ midweek madness deals, and the spring sale isn't that far off.

No worries, we just figured it out. All he has to do is stay in offline mode. He already has all the online games he plays on his account, so it's all good. We be cheatin!
The Bard Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Ah right, I thought you meant if you guys wanted to play together.
Magnus Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 So Antichamber was released the other day, and it's awesome. It's a first-person puzzle game where you get a gun that shoots blocks. Man, that makes the game sound terrible. Here's a trailer that does a much better job at selling the game:
nightwolf Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 I currently have too many DOTA keys, they'll probably sit there forever. Did anyone get invested in Crysis 3? I recently won it from one of the YouTubers I speak to, it's bloody brilliant. If only I were better at sneaking around..
Sméagol Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Antichamber was pretty good. I downloaded it's previous version a long time ago, forgot what the name was, but it was a UDK showcase game. So yeah, I just had to buy it when it was finally released as a full fledged game to show my support. Anyway, that was not why I logged in to post: System Shock 2 is available on Steam. Finally I get to play the inspiration for so many games.
flameboy Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 So...... I've been in need of a new laptop for quite some time as am still rocking the a knackered old Samsung NC10. At first I was like obviously going to just get another entry level laptop (bigger screen this time round). However it's unlikely I will buy a new computer and next gen console this year. So why not get a gaming PC? What are my options laptop wise? Only seem to find Alienware and they are stupid expensive. I've been looking at desktop building options like this: http://www.gamersnexus.net/pc-builds/46-pcbuildupg/1091-cheap-bastard-april-build I'm contemplating the desktop route, even though right now I don't have room for one. Although I could just plug it straight into TV.
MATtheHAT Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 I've really got into PC gaming since buying a new laptop. I did a lot of research before the purchase though, and it needed to fit certain criteria such as a thin form factor to fit in to my backpack, a dedicated graphics card, enough RAM to run most games at medium/high settings, and Windows Office for some light word processing and excel spreadsheeting. I did find one for under £500, and I have to say, it has been an amazing purchase. My advice would be to stay away from integrated graphics cards, make sure it has dedicated.
