Dot Gobbler - Glutton nightmare simulator?

Given the Avalanche head guy's recent comments on PC editions, I don't see why it wouldn't be or something equally adjustable to your liking.

So there is an 'end' to it? A goal to aim for!

I think it's understandable that people are getting mixed signals on the mechs themselves, given the disconnect between the look and movement we see in the trailers. Can we make the assumption that the pilots nervous system is hooked into the suit/mech?

There's a 2nd level? Oh god. I'm no where near good enough for something harder. I can't top 34.6m

That they are, so nothing to worry about there. If it was a PR stunt, why not wait the extra week and use April 1st?

Reminds me of Slave Zero from back in the day, which I always thought was an interesting but flawed game. If this could be an improvement on that idea, I'd be down for some giant robot suit on robot suit action.... *wants a Mechwarrior game soooo bad*

I'm waiting for them to implement/show off single player before I put any money on it, because the multiplayer just isn't enough.

I don't think I'll play another GTA unless the narrative changes how failure is addressed; eg story continues down an alternate path should I fail a mission, and not die in the process. Otherwise, the gameplay hasn't changed enough since 3 that I still find it fun to take on a new character doing more or less the same things. That the stories are interesting, but severely at odds with themselves at times doesn't help.

To quote Hermes Conrad, "That just raises further questions!" Like why haven't I bought this game yet. It sound ridiculously fun.

I agree with this completely. I read the book after playing through the game, and there is just so much depth to Artyom and to the tunnels themselves in the novel that I was actually really disappointed the game didn't attempt to weave them into the overarching plot a bit more. Unless the other ending (which I have not seen) even remotely touches on those aspects I can only hope the sequel aims a little higher in this regard.

Not this again. Well I can kiss a good hour of time goodbye fall on my head 1.5 meters in.

That Jake initiated the playing of, no less.

I did not expect to find this upon showing up for some Thumbing this afternoon. Can't turn down more The Idle Thumbs

Remo's asking price hit 8 figures per 'cast?

Same, unless there ends up being some kind of DoubleFine bundle when all 4 are done and get dropped on PC, I won't end up playing it Still, I think it looks like a mix of Mechwarrior and Impossible Creatures (based solely on that video anyway) and could be quite a bit of fun

Not to bump this for no reason, but it's also client for buying/selling indie games on top of acting as a means to get mods.

I agree with you wholeheartedly about this. I tried and retried the damn Librarians with the 'Look them in the eye' strategy only to get my ass kicked every time. I ended up running away to conserve ammo when I finally gave up on trying to stare them down. It would be completely possible if the place had no doors, but alas, that is not the case.

Usual Steam XMas Sale conundrum: Should I grab it now at $9 or wait for it to be a Daily Sale Item?

Wouldn't putting a smaller game like this on more digital download platforms make them more money, especially an established one like Steam? All that being said, it looks like it could be quite the interesting game. Russian dolls (I don't know their proper name) is quite the choice for characters and gameplay elements.

Go for a new machine altogether, pre-built or otherwise. That machine just isn't worth putting more money into for gaming.

That sounds like something The/Idle Thumbs would say on their podcast, but I doubt he'd bring that up here.

It would be decried worse than CJ was for being black. That being said, if they could somehow change up the story or gameplay somehow, I'd be a lot more interested than simply playing as woman.

So I may get to tell Steve what I think about his goddamn DLC after all? Don't like the idea of passing patches and DLC through Microsoft, but I guess that's a GfW/L thing that I don't deal with on a regular basis.

Recently finished Mass effect on PC, a few weeks after finishing part 2. And now I can't go back and play ME2 again, because it has retroactively become worse due to design changes.
