So I'm minding my own business when @Halfazedninja comes along and gifts me Civilization V?
To stop me from going to STEAM JAIL?
What the heck is this madness. It's not even my birthday yet, stop getting me involved with your japes.
(But thank you)

Hey folks who play STALKER, I'd like a game recommendation please
What's a good open world FPS or TPS / MMO (that isn't Fallout)
ALTERNATIVELY
Which of the three in your opinion has the best STALKER on STALKER combat? The shootout in the carpark at the beginning of the first one sticks out to me.
I'm looking to replay one of the three with a good mod set. I don't want weather and atmospheric mods that fuck with engine stability - xRay is a bitch as it is, and something LURK does in the most recent patch fucks it up all and results in some bad load-in during the game, even on a new PC with a SSD.
I'm considering rerunning COP with LURK minus Atmosfear 3.0?
Some days Blue wonders why anyone ever bothered making numbers so small; other days she supposes even infinity needs to start somewhere.

Hacknet is a pretty cool game. I like ye olde style terminal interface way of doing things, although it would be cool if you could move the windows around and set up the controls of the game so you had to move the mouse a lot less (or not at all). It seems a little more intuitive than Uplink.
Speaking of which, I wonder where my old Uplink disk went...
Garry: I know you gentlemen have been through a lot, but when you find the time I'd rather not spend the rest of the winter TIED TO THIS FUCKING COUCH!
Fairy Fencer F complete. Story was competent at best and it was sad to see Fang devolve from the best JRPG protagonist to just another generic bright-eyed hero out to save to world. Felt like junk food; tasty but insubstantial.
Let's see what's up next in the library. Looks like it's going to be Enslaved: Odyssey to the West.

If you want STALKER on STALKER combat I suggest going with the red-headed stepchild of the series. STALKER: Clear Sky with its associated Complete modpack is more killer shootouts than you can wave a Bloodsucker tentacle at and it's pretty stable and stuff. And if that isn't good enough for you there are a couple of mods that specifically focus on fixing and expanding the Faction War system that is broken as fuck in the vanilla game. But for serious, what isn't broken as fuck in vanilla Clear Sky?

Enslaved is a pretty great take on Journey to the West.
despite some sections being frustrating I really enjoyed that game.
also it has one of the nicest looking post apocalypse worlds ever.
Reposting this for tomorrow morning's victory, enter now and your odds are 50/50! Unless gear girl entered, then you get a 10% penalty.
One of those brothel games I mentioned had perk trees and skill points for character traits for any characters created. I suppose it was possible to create male characters. My only complaint would be that it wasn't possible to edit out certain characters I objected to.
I've now wishlisted hunipop and hope there is a way to change the art in the future.
Is Crysis still a system hog? That's gotta be cheap by this point, right? Cheaper than Witcher 3, anyway.
Did anything cool come with your graphics card? They often do.
It came with a code that I am assured can be exchanged at some future date for Metal Gear Solid V, so I've got that to look forward to! It will be my first Metal Gear game; fortunately I am given to understand that the series storyline is very straightforward and I should be able to dive right in.
I settled on Remember Me for a start since it's one of the more recent games I have, I don't think it's the highest stress thing I could possibly have chosen but I'm starting to see why people really like solid 60fps in games
Remember Me is great and I will fight anyone that says otherwise. It's an incredibly solid Single-A title with an interesting world and characters and gameplay that, while can get a touch repetitive (*cough*fights*cough*), is never broken or unresponsive and as such, it plays well. Nilin is a bad-ass, but also human. Cyberpunk Paris is practically a character all it's own, and its beautiful and mysterious and polished and gritty and tactile. And for the sci-fi buffs, the ideas behind being able to save and share your memories like Facebook for your Brain, and the power that gives people, be they lone hackers or faceless megacorps, over your very identity, is fascinating in that "what if" way that only good sci-fi can be.
Solid Single-A is a good way to put it; really well put-together but not a HUGE SPECTACLE game.
It was a good 10 hours! I liked the fighting system and rather wish that the whole "see your inputs in real-time" was a thing in every combo-heavy game. And fighting games, for that matter.
...though yes, there were a couple of "OK, I beat up those last eight guys and now I have another eight to beat up? REALLY?" moments.

So it lacked that Arkham metric that accelerated your character and made it easier to clear multiple enemies in a single combo and now I really want to reinstall the game to see what mods are available and I really should get to City's dlc.

It's funny you say that; I actually started Arkham City back when it came out but hung it up after a few hours (and didn't buy Origins or Knight) because the combat was really NOT clicking with me. In the last year, though, I've played the first two Ninja Gaiden Sigmas, an Oneechanbara, El Shaddai and now Remember Me and was thinking I should give Batman a second chance.
Arkham Asylum's combat areas should be the standard if you have a third or first person open world game like that. You should also have more than one battle area and ultimately incorporate all DLC enemies and allies (Dishonored).
God damnit. You go to bed thinking you're safe and wake up to the serious sam collection from @Pixelated Pixie.
"early birthday presents are the best" indeed! Thanks Pixie, it's not my birthday, but thanks. I'll redeem this when I get home from work.
Reminder that @cooljammer00 has his birthday on the 21st which is actually BEFORE mine. So... *coughs*

Got home with the intention of playing some Witcher 2 when I wasn't busy aiding my dad, but ended up wrapping up my mum's bday present instead. Then later I tried in vain to remove a screw from an action figure's head to replace with a 3rd party one. And now I'm too tired to do more than surf the net.
Probably for the best I guess, since my habit of winging things doesn't seem to be working very well in this game :P
I have briefly researched the crafting and signs since my last session, so there's that, but I think I should probably write down what the signs are because so far I've only memorized that Igni is the fire one. How I managed to beat the Nekker cave in Malena's quest and get up to The Kayran: A Matter of Price without memorizing all this stuff is beyond me.
I think I'm giving Subnautica a bit of a rest now. I've built bases, I've built the big sub. This game will be awesome, it just needs a bit more stuff added.

Fallout is amazing. Put a few hours in over the weekend. Have to run through FOSE and not Steam so it doesn't capture my hours played which sucks, but the numerous mods I've installed help.
Speaking of which, Nexus is one of the finest applications I've ever used. Completely taken the intimidation factor out of modding for me. Can't recommend highly enough.

Fallout is pretty great. I'm a little afraid for Fallout 4 though.
I mean, yeah, we had the paid modding fiasco some time ago and the backlash was so immense that Bethesda backed down, but honestly I'm worried that the door has been opened and it's only a matter of time before they try it again. My only evidence is their desire for additional revenue streams and that fact that Valve has left this page up even after things went back to normal.
I found myself in a position where I enjoyed FO3, would recommend it to people who like open world exploration dystopias and so on, and don't actually regret playing it.
But as much as I liked it, as nifty as the world environment was, I can't ever see myself playing it again. And I knew that whilst playing it. I sure as shit wasn't going to play it over again just for the alignment achievements. I save scummed for that.

So my internet seems to be fine, but steam can't connect, is something going on or do I have a case of the 'that one program that decides to not talk to the internet'
It was that somehow, from within the derelict-horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing... And take away its pain.

I just connected and my internet is pretty crap. And then sometimes I won't connect and there is nothing wrong with Steam itself. I'd wait and try again a little later.
Turning it off and on is how I noticed it was all of steam and not just the friends list. Haven't tried a whole computer reboot yet.
:edit: Fixed it, so far as I can tell my modem decided to update its firmware or something and the updated stuff included a 'shut down everything that isn't given a firewall exception', and it's just a checkbox list firewall, not an input your own items (like steam!) firewall.
