  1. Need to buy a laptop. Advice plx! Tnx.

    Well, there are small and powerful laptops, my Vaio Z is probably the best example... but there's a price to be paid.
  2. King's Bounty

    All the discussion is probably in the podcast threads when Chris was playing it... I loved most of the game, but it became boring by the end when you get to the labyrinth. I got the expansion packs in some Steam sale, I tried Armored Princess for a bit... and it was OK, I didn't play enough to see the difference the pet dragon brings. One awesome thing is that if you try to game the system by F5-F9ing, the game remembers the outcomes from everything you do and they'll be exactly the same if you do the same thing.
  3. Just to say that I'm PSYCHED about playing Minerva's Den in the PC... and I'd like to think that it finally happened because we said so and Steve asked them to do it!
  4. Need to buy a laptop. Advice plx! Tnx.

    Yeah, it's pretty trivial to have Win7 installed on Apple hardware. (besides swallowing the cost of the license) If you're in Brighton, MA I can see you my previous laptop on the cheap... I finished Fallout 3 on it, so you can have an idea of the hardware.
  5. I laughed when I heard the story about the guy with the PhD, I'm kinda in a similar situation where I'm finishing it and I'd love to work in the game industry, but I'd never work for free...
  6. General Video Game Deals Thread

    OK, I'll buy because of your recommendation. And I'll play it... someday in the distant future when I'm not being sucked by WoW.
  7. Giant Bomb GOTYcasts

    Where was Cataclysm in the best PC game discussion? WHERE?!?!?
  8. GOTY.cx 2010

    That's a hyperbole... but I did play 30h in a single weekend.
  9. GOTY.cx 2010

    My goatie this year has to be Mass Effect 2. No other game grabbed me by the balls and made me play 48h straight. To me, that's the sign of an excellent game. 2010 was good. 2011 will be fucking awesome.
  10. General Video Game Deals Thread

    Holy shit, PB Winterbottom $0.49... that's a no-brainer right there. Also, for anyone who enjoys puzzle games, math and sudoku, you should pick up Everyday Genius Squarelogic, it's only $1.49
  11. General Video Game Deals Thread

    Fuck me sideways... another Steam sale. I'll finally pick up Everyday Genius Squarelogic.
  12. Nothing about the game, more about the announcement at the VGAs. 10 minutes of your life, won't hurt at all.
  13. Steam Trezer Hunt

    I just want to get to 15 to get the second TF2 hat... that means playing some games I never touched before. Something to do this weekend!
  14. Mass Effect 3

    It was a big rumor a while ago because of hirings at Bioware, but it seems that a moderator in the ME forums confirmed it will be a single-player only game. However, it's a no-brainer for me to make a multiplayer spin-off... which is a possibility.
  15. Mass Effect 3

    I'm waiting for more info about the multiplayer aspect of the game. It sounds like ME3 will be going even more towards the shooter genre, mirroring the shooters that have RPG elements for opening new perks/weapons.
  16. First, watch this teaser to the announcement date (which is something I really despise): http://www.gametrailers.com/video/exclusive-debut-untitled-telltale/703721 Then tell me what the hell is going on? My love for TF2 makes me excited for this new project. I hope it's not a puzzle/card game though.
  17. Recently completed video games

    I like this operation "Playing all my steam games at least once"... it probably deserves a topic of its own, I have plenty of games I haven't touched yet.
  18. Recently completed video games

    Just finished Recettear! This game tickles me in all my right spots, even if that means I'm a Japanese schoolgirl... It reminds me a LOT of Persona, because of the combination of time and resource management with dungeon hack'n'slash, besides being extremely Japanese. At least give the demo a try if you're curious about it, highly recommended.
  19. Recently completed video games

    I grabbed Puzzle Agent in the Steam sale and finished it in one sitting. Creepy as fuck, reminded me a lot of Twin Peaks. Seriously, I'll have nightmares about little red dudes tonight. On the game itself, it's very reminiscent of Prof. Layton. A little bit short (37 puzzles I think), I only got really stumped in one of them (hotel room, completely over-thought it), other 5 I did stupid mistakes and corrected right away, the rest was easily done in the 1st try. I only used hints for the one I got stumped. I'd always hit How? to check if my reasoning was right and I noticed some lacked any explanation whatsoever... If you like Prof. Layton and you have a couple of bucks to spare, it's an enjoyable game.
  20. WTF is Telltale's new game?

    Well, you don't have to go to such lengths to farm the items... put it on the easiest difficulty and hit New Game until they wager the items, that's it. But it would be sad to cheat in this game... 95% of the fun for me is to hear the conversations and the other 5% is the new Sasha, which is AWESOME and Heavy is the class I play the most these days.
  21. WTF is Telltale's new game?

    So when you get to peek at the folded cards they're the real cards they were holding? That's awesome... Has anyone noticed that the indicator for who's the small/big blind sometimes doesn't show correctly? (very minor, it's deducible from where the dealer button is)
  22. WTF is Telltale's new game?

    I laughed A LOT when the heavy told the story about the engineer... the delivery from the voice actor was PERFECT.
  23. WTF is Telltale's new game?

    Did anyone notice if they have any tells? Also, if you pay attention, you can look at the cards they fold once in a while... although I don't know if they're realy the cards they were holding.
  24. WTF is Telltale's new game?

    Amen to the merchandise, that's easy money waiting to be cashed. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Poker Night became the biggest commercial success in TTG history, definitely if you rank it by profit margin %.
  25. WTF is Telltale's new game?

    I'm getting my ass KICKED at Poker Night... I'll probably play until I get all 4 items, at least the re-skinned Sasha.
