    Re; The hat thing. Thanks for pointing that out. I get bothered once a week with an invitation for my TF2 Stuff, and it pisses me off (when it's a random friend request and all they do is beg).

    Do people trade this stuff for games ever? Cause I know I'd like a Earth Defense force copy instead of a hat...

    Oh hell. Sonic adventure is on sale as well. That's another one I want....well, I want ALL the sonic titles. Well, except spinball and 3d blast, of course.

    You could ask in the TF2 thread, or check tf2tp.com I'm sure it's not unheard of.

    Anyone tried/heard any opinions about this Unstoppable Gorg thing? I like the look of the whole 'live action 50s sci-fi movie style cutscenes' business, but what's it like as a game?

    Sonic 4 would be great if it had the physics of an actual Sonic game, as opposed to whatever batshit system Sega came up with for it.

    Luckily, if there is one thing that the Sonic community is not short it it's modders, so maybe we'll see some interesting stuff come about now that Sonic 4 is on the PC.

    I'm thinking I need to start doing this as well. My goal is backlog elimination, so I'm probably going to go with something like

    Haven't beaten yet
    Beaten
    Unbeatable (multiplayer games, etc)
    Don't want to beat (bad games, like Lugaru)
    Can't beat until I upgrade

    I just catagorize all my games by genre, with a catch all "Other" for games that I just CANT quite put into one of the catagories I already have, but don't have enough of the genre to warrant their own.

    Hmm...don't think I'll get Sonic Generations, even at $7.50. Maybe I'm just getting old, but the busyness of the graphics made it too damn hard to follow for my eyes in the "classic" stage, and on the modern stage, just like every other recent Sonic game I barely feel like I'm even playing it. I'm just along for the ride and hitting a button now and then.

    Oh wells.

    EDIT: So if someone wants my 50% off generations coupon, its up for grabs.

    That's really easy to fix.

    In fact, it's already been done.

    Does that count as "fucking it up?" It's easy to change the sorting method - just click the head of the column you want to sort by and go to Data->Sort sheet by....

    I put it back to alphabetical by column A (publisher/game) anyhow, since that does seem slightly more useful.

    Small game I've been keeping an eye on called Defender's Quest came out today http://www.defendersquest.com/

    Mashes up Tower Defense and an RPG basically, demo is pretty huge and fun. Hoping it sees a broader release beyond just its' homepage though.

    Looks like Direct 2 Drive is having a 20 percent off all games sale this weekend. Not a bad deal if something brand new you want is on there. Though they're supposed to be shutting down any day now.

  • DrascinDrascin Registered User regular
    is it 75% off or free?

    Also, damn it the DLC is just a pinball stage and the newly added titles aren't on sale. That's all somewhat of a letdown.

    haha 75%. Free would move the coupons from being mostly worthless to being epic when said game(s) are on sale.

    Downloading the demo. I haven't played a 3D Sonic I've enjoyed, but Generations was appealing for obvious reasons. If it's decent, $7.50 is hard to argue with.

    Personally, I'd put it as best Sonic game since 3. It's not a long game, but it's fun and replayable. The classic stages are very Sonic-y, and the Modern ones finally do the speed rush thing right (I'm in love with Rooftop Run modern, myself). They are appropiately fast, but not in autopilot.

    Which reminds me, I need to see if I can get a decent time in Crisis City modern one of these days.

    Steam ID: Right here.

    Same here, I have to resort to Easy to save DS games on the can now. It's just not the same. Last manual I had was Fallout 3.

    This is the captain's log of Ace Rimmer - Space Adventurer.

    Stardate - 1
    Have started scratching out a meagre living as a cleaner of solar arrays. I make 10,000 credits for each solar array cleaned. It's not much, but it's enough for now.

    Stardate - 2
    I upgraded my ship today! From a small fighter engine, to a top of the line high-speed one. This thing eats fuel, but I can go from ground level to space in 5 seconds with this, compared to about 20 before.

    Stardate - 3
    Ah. I appear to have messed up big time. When upgrading my engine, I negated to upgrade my fuel tank. As a result of this, and forgetting to refuel between missions, I am now drifting through space at a speed of 3811 MPH. I have no fuel, so cannot jump back to the space station, and I do not have enough to even turn my ship around. I flew past the solar array I was meant to clean a few minutes ago. This will not end well.

    So yeah. I'm not great Evochron yet. :P

    Screw you man, its not like didn't have enough to play.

    I saw a screenshot and thought it looked stupid but fuck this is fun. The demo goes on awhile too, you get a really good taste of the game. I'll probably buy this.

    EDIT: wait, why is in the steam thread anyway? The game isn't on steam.

    After using the mythical spacefaring skill known as reloading, I went on my first mining mission. After mining 25 tons of diamonds, I jettisoned them into deep space. Someone's gonna be happy.

    No, it's Extremes with an S. It's not THAT extreme. The sequel will probably add a Z... no, it won't replace the S with a Z, it will append to it (Ship Simulator Extremesz: I'm on a boat!).

    I had some dude do the same thing to me the other night. Just sent me a friend request and I thought, "Oh cool, someone wants to be my friend!" Then he immediately started asking for my TF2 items and when I told him no he cussed me out and dropped off my list. I didn't know it was a thing that happens to others though.
