My child is complete. Just need to stick the pannles on and power it on for the first time. I'll do the cable management thing later.

Hii, just wondering if anyone has a spare Dead Island key from one of the previous humble bundles? The deep silver one I think.

 

I'm not just after it for free btw. I have all the Origin keys from the EA bundle except Dead space 3, and a few other steam keys. I'd love to discuss it in PM with anyone willing to trade with me ^_^

Anyone had a chance to try The Inside World yet? I bought it on account of the art and loving it so far. The main character is a wonderful simpleton as he's been in a tower most of his life and there quite a lot of politics and religion even if not taken very seriously.

 

Will report back with mooooore

So Gone Home, the critically acclaimed (and down right awesome) interactive story game is reduced to £7.49 for one day. Strongly urge everyone to get this, it's a real gem.

Actually came in here to post it myself! Likely my final purchase before my Year of Shame!

Also have steam keys for Organ Trail and Broken Sword Director Edition for anyone who wants them.

Right so here is my review for The Inner World:

 

Do you like point-n-clicks? Then find the time/money to get this game, period.

 

The Inner World combines a beautiful and intriguing graphical style with some wonderfully off the wall design, such as a world built on the inside of a sphere, not the outside like ours. This is all backed with a melodic and inquisitive musical score that binds it all together (I could happily listen to the opening menu music for quite some time). The human-like inhabitants all have stripey arms, legs and nose, apart from the main character Robert, who seems different from everyone else with his flute nose.

 

The adventure starts with Robert going on a quick errand to rescue a necklace stolen by a pesky pigeon but he quickly finds himself being sucked into an adventure to discover the many secrets of the Inner World; which is a lot as he's never left the castle before!

 

Through his journey you meet a wealth of very original characters and combined with the delightfully naive Robert lead to some great writing with a nice dry sense of humour. The voice acting and translation in itself is superb considering that the game was written in German and any slip ups are almost unnoticeable.

 

The mandatory puzzles are also top class, encouraging you to explore and use that point-n-click crazy logic to allow you to progress. Many of these give Robert and the other characters a great opportunity to make you smile, particularly Laura the female lead. There is also a robust hint system for those that find this kind of game a bit too much of a challenge so you never feel held back from enjoying the story.

 

Completed this in 7 or 8 hours or so but enjoyed every second. A wonderful world with great characters to fall in love with.

Please help me raise money for Extra Life this year remember it's FOR THE KIDS!!!!

 

As some of you know I will have just started a Year of Shame Challenge where I cannot buy any games for a year to help me tackle my backlog. However I can recieve gifts. As "luck" would have it the Steam Sale is on now and some things have popped up as cheap that are on my wishlist:

 

Chaos Engine $4.99

Left 4 Dead 2 $4.99 EDIT: ALREADY BOUGHT BY @Happenstance THANKS VERY MUCH Donation $10

Deadlight $3.74

Outlast $13.32

 

If anyone gifts me one or more of these games I will double the double the value of the purchase and round up to the nearest $10 and donate it on their behalf it's a fantastic way to help me out and make a bigger contribution than you can afford/want to make. My steam name is flameboyne

Was anyone not particularly impressed with The Binding of Isaac? It got a whole bunch of attention and everyone was saying how great it is but I'm finding it kind of boring and random. Suppose I should have looked into it a bit more to find out who it was made by...

 

Also, does anyone seem to not be able to skip the bloody intro? Feels like the whole thing was put on to PC in some massive rush where they forgot to make it properly Steam compatible.

I loved the Binding of Isaac, according to my Steam library ive got 29 hours on it. Its just one of those games that I found perfect for playing while watching something on my other screen and keep running through again and again trying to make it further.

I do find it an incredibly frustrating game as I find it hard to gauge any "progress" for me a rogue like needs to have a hook that makes you feel like you are progressing Rogue Legacy has it's leveling system plus items you find, Tokyo Jungle had it's story hooks and animal unlocks for example. For me I don't feel like Binding of Isaac has that....I've maybe played about 4/5 run throughs and not felt like I've got far and not sure I will go back to it.

Rumours are Tell Tale got the license to make a Game of Thrones game. If it’s true, then I’ll either going to be super hyped if it doesn’t follow the main characters and is simply set in the same world (like Walking Dead), or super disappointed if it does.

Yeah I heard this too. Good news if it turns out true.
