    So I bought Sonic 4 because it was extremely cheap. My first impression is that Sonic looks like really low-res compared to the level and that the bonus stage is like the Sonic 1 one, but way worse.

    Legend of Grimrock is coming soon, and while it's not available to preorder on Steam, if you preorder on the dev's website, you get the game with a few bucks saving and a Steam key.

    same here, my main issue with it is I really wish there was a way to zoom out a bit though I am having fun playing it so it doesn't really bother me too much

    Turns out Gettysburg is made entirely by just 1 guy. Thats actually really impressive for a single man dev team.

    So Age of Empires Online is now on Steam. Does anyone know if it still requires GFWL?

    Not that I'm really interested in the game, just curious. Seems strange of Microsoft to release it on Steam this long after release.

    I would assume it does, as when I was in it's beta it was required.

    Yeah thats what I meant :D

    I don't even know if I like this game yet though. It's stronghold 1/Crusader, which I looooove (I put in easily 50hours+ on my CD copy). But it's also essentially a browser 'strategy' game, which I hate. Do you like it?

    And in my defense, I'm not usually so heavy on strategy. But since money's a little tight, I can't buy Mass Effect 3 for another month or so...

    Ok, so I need to get this, loved the first two Stronghold Games, but I also hate browser strategy games, then again, school doesn't give me a lot of time to play and I can't let myself be possessed by Stronghold yet again.

    ... Maybe this time I can handle it, I'm older and more mature, yeah.

    Well, I'm liking it a bit, yeah. Mainly because I'm really inclined into min-maxing things and got kinda used to the Paradox spreadsheet games. It also helps that I can let it run in the background a bit while doing things or waiting (which is partly the reason I have so many hours of it.)

    Hate a few design decisions (seriously? pay for building queues?), but it manages to entertain.

    Aaand DA:O has bested me. Moving the difficulty down from normal to easy. I am just past the first town Morrigan takes you to and the herds of bandits in the farm/field are just too much. Like one LT, four archers, and two dogs? I don't even know how I'm supposed to handle that. CC doesn't last long enough, you can really pull apart the group. Dunno what the proper strategy is.

    The best part of Stronghold Kingdoms is the politics and warfare. Join or make a faction and get in one of the houses and get involved. It becomes a lot more fun then.

    I am relatively new to Dota2, and like to play random heroes in bot games. If you're not very good also we should play together. If you are very good at dota I will only drag you down. <3

    After failing somewhat at my Shogun 2 campaign, I've decided to try out Mount and Blade: Warband again.

    I think I suck at this game too. I did some quests, some tournaments, got some money, got a force of about 40-ish guys, decided to fight for Swadia and got a quest to rescue this count from a castle.

    I go to the castle and sneak in. I knock the guard out, take his keys and fight my way out. First few times I fail, usually because the count gets himself knocked unconscious despite me saying not to do anything. I finally succeed in killing everyone annnnd, he's still a prisoner. Wait, what? Do I have to just run away after I free him? How do I get him not to die?

    Also, if I try to loot villages some big army swoops in and takes me out. I'm too big to take out bandits anymore but too small to actually fight anyone. This game is frustrating. I usually quit around this point every time I try playing it.

    Check out my sig, oh yeah. Beat NWN2 and only had to use god mode twice because I was too lazy to load and retry. Fifty-five hours though, co-op all the way through. Highly recommended, especially if you have someone to play with. The authentication servers don't work anymore but you can connect directly via IP address after the error message goes away.

    We're going to start up Mask of the Betrayer shortly which by all accounts is better than the main game. Looking forward to it.

    Don't do those quest they're broken.

    If you're too big to fight bandits but not big enough for count parties, follow your countries counts around if you're at war and help them in fights, nets you some fame with them and exp. If you're not at war with anyone travel to the coast of the Vaegirs near some large town that starts with a M I forget its name and fight sea raiders. Also look into buying businesses, and buying iron from Curaw and selling it elsewhere for huge profits.

    I did not know they were broken, that helps to know that.

    I shall follow some armies around then and help em out then. I just need to find them. How do you buy businesses?

    The perfect troll announcement for HL3 would be to have a trailer that starts in a L4D style. Panning across 4 people doing some wisecracking, running from an unseen enemy, usual L4D stuff. People being to rage hilariously because they think it's a new L4D

    Gets to the part of the video where you think they're about to show you the infected, but it's really the ravenholm fast zombies they're running from. either they all get taken our or they run into a building, then it cuts to a shot that pulls back and a crowbar comes into shot and reveals it's being held by Gordon's hazard suit hand.

    Cut to the HL3 logo then Gabe comes on stage to announce it. The internet explodes.

    Don't get me wrong. I've had some good times in L4D, but I really hope it's not. Honestly I don't think we even needed a second one. Everything they've done could have been put into the first one.
