For discussion on any and all games that isn't worth making a thread over.




Batman: Arkham Asylum Game of the Year Edition is now available for $7.50 on steam. If you don't have it, get it.


Also, I'm thinking of getting the Portal 2 pre-order on steam. Which means I get another copy of Portal 1. Does anyone want this second copy gifted to you, as you do not have Portal but want it?

you shouldn't even have to ask that question.  It's a former game of the year.  It's $7.50.

It kinda looks like a console game... I'm worried about the quality of the port & control scheme?

control scheme is really easy to use.  My main gripe with the game is that there's really no use in changing out of the x-ray view or whatever it is.  Floppy, should you really be worried about the game mechanics in a $7.50 game?

It's one of the better purchases i've made off steam, and i got it for $10.  Well worth it

It's not hard to win GOTY when your main competitor is MW2

and only around 5% of reviewers made it GOTY

Batman GotY is absofuckinglutely worth that entry price. Also, this thread should help the screenshots thread be more about player screenshots.

Good to know

There are so many horrible ports where the dev's just assigned seemingly random keys and changed only the key-logo in the interface (I am looking at you atm TDU2)

It all depends on the mood of the mod

<-- moved from screenshots thread

Your noble justifications are not fucking cutting it anymore. In my last rant about piracy, one person said they pirated "out of necessity" and seemed to get some people agreeing with him. Really? Necessity? It is necessary  that you play a videogame? Since when was a luxury item like a videogame a necessity, to the point where you get to steal it? A fucking bit of bread for a dirt-poor family is a necessity, son. Not your stupid videogame.

This assumes that people who pirate games would have otherwise bought them if they weren't available to pirate. I'm not going to say that piracy has never costed game developers sales, since that would be ignorant, but I'm not really going out on a limb when I say that it's not nearly as much as some people would have you believe.
No it doesn't. It simple states you don't need to have games, they aren't a necessity.
It does at that, but the article complains about damage done to the PC gaming industry by piracy. I contend that the majority of game pirates aren't really a viable market to care about or even acknowledge, and are in fact potential customers...who will, if anti-piracy ethics sink in, become legitimate customers who are already familiar with and/or addicted to your games/series. It's the group of people who pirate shit when they can otherwise afford to buy it that bother me, and those are the people all the strong-arm ads and legal battles should be targeting.

Some of the anti-piracy measures put into place (not just by video games) are so glitchy and restrictive that some of the pirated copies are actually functionally superior to legitimate ones. This is what is called stabbing yourself in the foot.

So do you actually buy a game that you like after "sampling" it? Even if it's single-player only?
I do, and I've caught up on all the ones I did download. If I didn't download them to begin with, I probably wouldn't have bought them later when I had the money for it.

I did the same with most games, too. But not always and still not with all the games I played.
