Dcubed Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1139222 Wow! Even Dragon Quest Heroes is coming to Steam now!? Man! PC just gets better and better!
Emasher Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Anyone pick up anything interesting in the Steam sale yet? I ended up buying Axiom Verge, Toki Tori 2, and one of the Endless Legend DLCs that I didn't have yet. They weren't huge deals, but I've been waiting for Axiom Verge to go on sale for quite some time now. Brilliant game, quite possibly the most fun I've had with a game this year so far.
Kounan Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 I've only got Toki Tori 2 but some 10 days ago, was only 1.09 euros.
MATtheHAT Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Just Satellite Reign and Door Kickers for me. Don't really want to get too deep into something as I'm waiting for the Elite Dangerous: Horizons expansion on Monday.
Shorty Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 The excellent Shadow Complex is free for PC users over this holiday season Get it! https://www.epicgames.com/shadowcomplex/
Sméagol Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 And Jade Empire is free on origin. I dismissed it initially because the name didn't really ring a bell, but then I saw it was a Bioware RPG. Bought Axiom Verge in the sale (you still have 10 minutes :p). Bought a physical copy of The Evil within for 10 euros. I'll buy the DLC in the Steam winter sale (Steam comments seem to be positive). It's now installing 40GB from 4 discs, geez. I can't remember the previous time when I bought a physical copy of a game in a physical store though. And I'm very tempted to get myself an X-Box one elite controller. I've wanted a controller for my PC for quite some time, for the few 2D games or 3rd person 3D games I have. Keyboard and mouse suffices for a lot of things, Tomb Raider for example played perfectly, but I don't see myself playing Yooka Laylee for example, when it comes out, and I obviously need it for Axiom Verge mentioned above. The other option is a Wii classic controller pro adapter, but the options aren't mutually exclusive, so I may get both.
Dcubed Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Interesting how a lot of the announcements at the PSX conference all carried an interesting title of "PS4 Console Exclusive", or "PS4 Console Debut" instead of the others that said "Only on PS4"... Me thinks that we'll be seeing the likes of FF7 Remake, Ni-No-Kuni 2, Yakuza 0 and NiOh coming to PC as well
Sméagol Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 Bought some stuff from the Square Enix shop. - Life is strange LE. - Deus Ex: mankind divided. - 2015 Holiday surprise box. Loved Life is strange so much, I'll happily buy an extra physical copy. I actually already pre-ordered Deus Ex, but then cancelled it to pre-order the LE, which wasn't available at their shop initially. But after their pre-order bonus debacle, and seeing what the LE actually contains, I re-pre-ordered (..) the regular edition again, I only want the artbook, but I'm not paying 120 euros for it. As for the surprise box, I was happy with the previous boxes, so I'm looking forward to the next. I'm hoping for / expecting Sleeping dogs, everything else is a bonus. This time they didn't leave a hint in the form of a minimum system requirements, so there are no educated guesses on the internet. Apart from Sleeping dogs, I expect Lara Croft and the temple of Osiris.. Maybe they finally add a Final Fantasy to the box as well. I also ordered that X-Box one elite controller.
Sméagol Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 I have a Thief Steam code up for grabs. (regulars only please :P) The Square Enix surprise box was slightly disappointing, with 2 duplicates.. One of them was Thief (I already got the master thief edition from a previous box, and wasn't interested back then..). The other one is Life is strange ep 1 again, although that one will make a nice gift.. I'll see if there are any takers on Facebook, otherwise I'll give it away here as well. Lara Croft and the temple of Osiris was expected and may be fun if it works properly and I can find some co-op partners.. The first one was fun, but nog in single player, which was usually the case. The nice surprise was Final Fantasy XIII, which I'll happily add to my Steam library, though I won't be starting that 60 GB download just yet.. The last one is Final Fantasy XIV.. I'm not sure what it is. People say you can start a free trial anyway, so I assume the code includes a 30 day subscription at least. I'm slightly curious, but I'm not in the mood to try an MMO right now, with the accompanying big download.
Magnus Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 I have a Thief Steam code up for grabs. Thanks for the warning.
Sméagol Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Haha, I couldn't get rid of the master thief edition as well..
Happenstance Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 Steam is seriously fucked at the moment. You go to the store and it takes you to random territories and you go to your account details and it takes you to a random persons account page with all their details.
Ike Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 Just tested accessing the store on Chrome and I'm logged in on some Spanish users account. So basiaclly we can't do anything to protect our own account?
Dcubed Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 This is outrageous!! Why the hell haven't Valve shut down the whole thing yet!? The fuck are they doing!?!?!? And once again, this is why I always tell people never store your card details online. EVER! I always manually input my card details/PayPal details in manually every-single-time on every single online service/store for this very reason!
Ike Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 (edited) Steam seems to be down now. Edited December 25, 2015 by Ike
Dcubed Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 Steam seems to be down now. Yeah, seems to be down for good now. It took them a whole hour!! Unbelievable! This is far worse than the PSN hack! How the hell could something like this happen!?
Sheikah Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 Yeah, seems to be down for good now. It took them a whole hour!! Unbelievable! This is far worse than the PSN hack! How the hell could something like this happen!? Yeah that is pretty tragic. To anyone who checked, I assume they blank out parts of stored details? Certainly no 3 digit code on the back of cards I hope.
Dcubed Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 Yeah that is pretty tragic. To anyone who checked, I assume they blank out parts of stored details? Certainly no 3 digit code on the back of cards I hope. I'm pretty sure that it only lists the last four numbers of your card if you have it stored on there, but it does list your name and address, so anyone could've taken a look at those details...
Happenstance Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 It also showed the credit on the persons account and seemed to allow you to at least delete information, maybe edit. This is a major fuck up by Valve to let something like this happen.
Helmsly Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 yeah this is screwed up, whatever the cause of this, i know that I could see other peoples account details on my account page every time I hit refresh, which means there's a chance someone was doing that to mine. I do not have any CC details saved on my account though.
Emasher Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 I was just about to make the purchases I had been throwing into my cart for the last few days and then noticed the store was down. I'm glad I only ever make purchases through Paypal, and never save my information though.
Dcubed Posted December 31, 2015 Posted December 31, 2015 Guys, if any of you are considering getting the three Umihara Kawase games from PC, you had better hurry up; because they just got delisted from Steam! https://www.humblebundle.com/store/search/search/kawase Humble Bundle are still selling Steam keys (and yes they are redeemable and the games are still redownloadable; I just bought the original and Shun just now) I wasn't expecting them to go down so soon! Agatsuma are being liquidated but still! Bloody hell, that happened fast and sudden! Don't sleep on them! Get them while you still can if you even remotely like odd ball/high skill 2D platformers!
MadDog Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) Anyone want a Life is Strange episode 1 steam key or Murdered: Soul Suspect? Send me a PM if you fancy them? They're obvs for free aswell. :p Edited January 1, 2016 by MadDog
Sméagol Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Just a heads up in case anyone needs some recommendations.. Just bought some stuff in the Steam sale since it ends today, and Grow Home and King's quest look like winners to me, had a quick look at both. Continuing King's Quest right now.
Nolan Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Grow Home is a fantastic and cute little platformer-ish game. A bit phallic but that's part of the charm. I'd recommend it to anyone. Also of note, Turok (original Dinosaur Hunter, not what came out last gen.) has a remastered sort of release on steam. Came out midway through December and it's a competent port of the game it seems.
