  1. The STEAM Sales and Releases Thread

    Remasters of a Japanese blobber series, with new translations that take less liberties than the original western releases (e.g. "pimp hand"). There's also a bundle with both.
  2. Screenshot thread

    Man, Dirt 2 still looks great today.
  3. What game are you wasting time on?

    Finished Zortch. One thing that's striking to me is how I had so much fun with all the large and open encounters in the game when I normally dislike those kind of encounters. I feel exhausted just looking at open spaces with 20+ imps and 10+ cacodemons/mancubi/arachnotrons in Doom II, and even...
  4. What game are you wasting time on?

    Nearly done with Zortch, limiting myself to one episode per day since I started it, trying to take my time to make it last. I can already say that it is now my favorite singleplayer FPS after Quake 1. The levels, like Quake, have some non-linearity and looping, and a lot of verticality. Actually...
  5. What game are you wasting time on?

    Currently making my way through the original Resident Evil 3. Really fun and quite tough. Challenging action gameplay and resource management with exploration and some puzzling. A lot of moments where the game just pulls the rug out from under you and you have to think and act fast. You get...
  6. Halo: The Master Chief Collection now on Steam

    I hear a lot of people say that Reach's weapon sandbox is one of the worst in the series and it's kinda true. The combat balance is heavily skewed towards precision headshot weapons, especially the DMR. The Halo series has some of the best difficulty modes because they actually affect AI...

    Romancing Saga Minstrel Song Remastered
  8. Hands of Necromancy - Heretic and Hexen-inspired GZDoom boomer shooter

    Completed the first episode, here are my thoughts on the level design: Despite the Hexen influence, the levels have good flow (i.e. letting the player feel where he should go next without explicitly telling him) and are really well-paced. There is always a good sense of progression and a...
  9. Random thoughts on whatever JRPG you're currently playing?

    Recently started Berwick Saga, I have no experience with Fire Emblem and very little with SRPGs in general, but I'm thoroughly impressed by this game. The mission scenarios are fun and challenging, there are always neat little twists like an enemy unit fetching a magic item to his ally that...

    Playing Dark Souls 2 for the first time, the Undead Crypt is awesome. I don't play horror games but this is the kind of horror I can enjoy. I haven't felt this kind of dread going through the level since playing Quake's Episode 4.
  11. Screenshot thread

    I really enjoy UT3, it's a shame very few good maps were made for it. DM-Churn][ is one of those maps which I enjoy a lot. Other UT3 screenshots:
  12. Symphony of War: The Nephilim Saga - Ogre Battle Spiritual Successor Tactical RPG

    Looks like the demo was updated, now it actually feels like the game being described and not just a combat demo. There are three scenarios and you get to freely customize your squads (recruiting, squad composition, unit class change, buying equipment) between each. Took me about 2 hours to get...

  14. What game are you wasting time on?

    Revisiting Master of Magic The Community Patch that comes with the Steam/GOG release is truly excellent, it fixes loads of bugs and greatly improves the AI and diplomacy. Furthermore, work is being done by some very dedicated people to add customization options in the game. You can actually...
