  1. Has it been mentioned? Jr. Mints on Isometric with the usual crew plus Gita Jackson:

     

     

    #35: Go Bug Your Mom About Bayonetta

    December 29, 2014 at 2:30PM • 55 minutes

    It's all come down to this, part one of Isometric's Game of the Year spectacular. Special guest stars Gita Jackson and Danielle Riendeau shock the Isometric cast with their tiebreaking votes. Hearts will be dashed, dreams will be ruined, and nothing will ever be the same!

    The Nominees:

    Biggest Disappointment:

    • Destiny
    • Assassin’s Creed: Unity
    • Watch Dogs

    Best Representation:

    • Wolfenstein: The New Order
    • Never Alone
    • Captain Toad
    • Dragon Age: Inquisition

  2. I've been very, very reserved so far in this sale. Bought 5 things and all but one of them were sub-$2. I did buy Never Alone, mostly because that's the kind of project I want to support while it's relatively new, even if I'm not going to play it for awhile.

    Very similar experience here, if you sub in Nuclear Throne instead of Never Alone - I rationalised that one as current owners will receive an additional gift copy not long after Jan 1, Eurotimezone, and it looks like the kind of game that could get a lot of regular rotation, Spelunky style.

    That was a Real Money purchase but all else came out of Steam Wallet funds from trading card sales.

    I find myself feeling like I 'won' in that I have half a dozen more games for very little (or no) financial outlay, but 'lost' in that the Steam sale entity successfully convinced me to part with currency at all. Battle of the wills.


  3. My only issue is they use the amnesia trope but for literally no reason. You're in prison, and you get your sentence extended for amnesia. They could have easily just thrown you in prison without the why explained, or even just some throw away reason like theft or something more interesting like murder. Nope though, amnesia, sigh.

    Ok, now I'm interested!


  4. So uh...my uncle (in law) has been arrested on charges of possessing child pornography. Merry Christmas, I suppose.

     

    Oh man, that's an uncomfortable piece of news. I really feel for you.


  5. I'm tempted to check those out, but they probably don't stack with the sale do they?

     

    Doesn't seem likely but who knows, you're welcome to have a go with them if you want! Having checked the Steam store, FF III is already at 33%, XIII-2 and Osiris at 20%, so it could be those voucher amounts are to become their Daily Deal thresholds...


  6. This year's Square Enix mystery preorder. I'm happy with it.

    Murdered Soul Suspect was a given, Lara Guardian of Light a probable choice (despite being repeated from the SE Humble Bundle), The Last Remnant a good concession to the requirement for a cult favorite (but again, a repeat), and Thief 2014 a bit of a surprise. It's supposed to be good if you turn off Batman Vision?

    Nosgoth and Deus Ex The Fall more than a bit cheeky though.

    Anyone in need of 50% discount vouchers for FF III or XIII-2? I'm assuming the 33% off Lara Osiris won't beat or stack with its Steam Daily / Flash deal.


  7. EDIT: It is also exceedingly bizarre that the rounds all last 45 minutes exactly... except the first that lasts 2 1/2 more days?

    I think it's just that there's a run up to the auction phase starting to allow bidders to prepare / charge the virtual items market.
