    There is a demo for Not a Hero up, which is a sort of Broforce meets Hotline Miami meets Gunpoint actionfest from the OlliOlli devs.

    I suggest not playing the demo because then soon you will find yourself absent 12 dollars.

    This is exactly how I feel about the Ronin demo. Turn based action platforming is real and it rocks.

    Has the Mass Effect sale been posted yet?

    http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009XDMQ0W/

    Origin of course, but still, $10 for the trilogy on PC. First two games look to include at least some of the DLC, but ME3 DLC is still something you have to purchase.

    Interesting; I'd thought Pinnacle Station was long gone, at least for PC.

    The ME2 DLC listed is the stuff that was free with Cerberus Network (aka, the ME2 online pass) anyway and came out over the first couple of months the game was out. It's some good stuff, though. Zaeed is incredible. But the big paid DLC for ME2 (Kasumi, Shadow Broker, Overlord, Arrival) and any of the other optional little things you might want still needs picking up separately.

    C'mon, EA/Bioware, get your shit together. Srsly.

    If I bought the DLC on console... using the Cerberus Network... would I have access to it on PC?

    Nope. Not the paid stuff. The free stuff, yes. Cerberus Network itself was an online pass and an in-game storefront for the version of the game you got it with, that's all. Sorry.

    No difference if you got it through Cerberus Network or Xbox Live Marketplace. Or, I assume, PSN.

    It's so arse-about-face. The cost and the hoops to jump through create a ridiculous barrier to entry that we've seen people in this very thread just can't (or won't) get past. It's doubly sad because those games are so good.

    It's triply sad because these guys gave us Dragon Age: Origins: Ultimate Edition: With Extra Colons, thus setting themselves a great example of how to actually do it right.

    The Total Warhammer thing is going to be a trilogy, apparently.

    From Blue's News:
    SEGA® of America, Inc. and SEGA® Europe, Ltd. today announced a new title from UK videogame studio Creative Assembly™; the first in partnership with Games Workshop®, creators of the well-known Warhammer® Fantasy Battle tabletop wargame and accompanying range of miniatures.

    Total War™: WARHAMMER® for PC, Mac and SteamOS, coming soon.
    Now in its 15th year, the award-winning Total War™ continues to offer a unique combination of huge-scale real-time battles and an addictive turn-based campaign game of statecraft, politics and empire building.

    Total War: WARHAMMER will take the series to a realm of grand high fantasy for the very first time in its history. Our rules have changed, and with change comes war on a scale as yet unimagined. The limitlessly deep and rich universe of Warhammer heralds a new era for Total War. Gigantic monsters, flying creatures, legendary heroes and storms of magical power take their place on the battlefield, alongside thousands of warriors clashing in real-time tactical battles.

    In the turn-based campaign game, players will find the Old World an unforgiving and treacherous place, filled with endless war and cunning alliances alike. Whichever race you choose to play as and however you seek conquest, you will be faced with a conflict that threatens to tear the very fabric of reality asunder.

    The first in an epic trilogy of titles, Total War: WARHAMMER will deliver hundreds of hours of absorbing gameplay. It will combine with two further standalone instalments and additional content packs to create the single largest Total War experience ever.

    “We’ve always loved the Warhammer universe, and couldn’t wait to approach it with the same colossal scale and authenticity that has characterised our titles for the last 15 years,” said Total War: WARHAMMER Project Lead, Ian Roxburgh. “We’re bringing it to life in a way that nobody’s attempted before.”

    (Emphasis added)

    Content packs, swell.

    So, I died.

    Not literally of course, but in the Steam Battle Thread being run by @akajaybay. My character had recently gone through a harrowing mission, one where there were all kinds of injuries and basically we got our asses handed to us. Personally, my character was glad to be alive, since he never even wanted to leave the ship in the first place. Well the round ended, and I was safe.

    Then the next round started, and my dead body was found with a drone to the heart. Oops. Apparently though, I was not allowed to pass to the next life just yet, I needed something to entertain me on the way.

    This is really cool in theory, but the "We will not also tolerate anyone hosting servers for the game where such behaviors are continually or repeatedly allowed to take place" part doesn't really sit right with me.

    A game developer has no right to tell someone what they can or cannot do with a game they paid for on a server they are running using hardware they own.

    Banning someone from official servers for being a dick is a great idea, but revoking a CD Key for a game that they paid for because they don't fit into your personal morality belief system is some straight up bullshit.

    EULAs in general have been in a very murky legal area since their inception, mainly because you can't read them until after you have made a purchase.

    Adding things like "We'll tell your mom on you!" isn't doing the "EULAs are legal agreements" argument any favors.

    You're ok with someone telling you that after you have given them money for something they can dictate how you are allowed to use it based on their personal feelings regarding what is or isn't being a dick?

    If someone wants to run their own server and be racist or sexist or homophobic or whatever than that's pretty morally reprehensible sure, but it's also their own business. "Don't be a dick" in public is fantastic, and if you're a dick in public than you lose the ability to be a dick in public, which is also fantastic... but if someone wants to be a dick on their own time in their own game on their own hardware than nobody has the right to tell them no.

    They're game developers, not morality police.

    This is something that TWI has been doing for a while now and it has been in a few of their EULAs. They've even gone so far as banning a few people. Guess what, no one misses them and it was a net positive for the game as a whole.

    It's a nuclear option for when a problem grows beyond the ability of the players and server admins to handle. All the outrage about rights here is pretty cute stuff but I'm pretty happy that TWI doesn't just shrug their shoulders when there is a problem trashing the experience for people who just want to have fun playing a video game.

    One thing I didn't really like about the wall-grab move in HR is that it is a lethal move and you can't tell if the context button is going to knock down the wall or murder an unfortunate soul on the other side unless you've got the x-ray ability.

    Hippie.

    Far from it. I don't do stealth because I don't like killing people, I do stealth because killing people is too easy. Sniper rifle? Pistol? Rocket launcher? Too simple.

    No, I sneak up and perform non-lethal takedowns because it's more difficult than sheathing my armblades in their lungs. I move silently through the vents because strolling down the hallway whistling Dixie with a shotgun is boring. I put every living thing to sleep and disable all electronic security features, whether I already passed them or not, because I want to read every bit of email they've ever received and nothing is going to stop me.

    Actually killing people isnt a silent takedown so murdering them with your arm blades is actually harder than knocking them out.
