The second one isn't as good as the first one


So, is it the same case as with lost planet 2? Can you even get the first one on Steam?

According to the big activation list on steam support, you can activate it.

Lost Planet: Extreme Condition CD Keys in this format: 1AB2C-D3FGH-456I7-JK8LM-NOP9Q Lost Planet: Colonies Edition CD Keys are not accepted on Steam

However I don't know where to buy it from unless you want to get it retail, which may or may not be used.
And for some reason I didn't think it was on Steam.

There are two versions of the first available on steam. No idea what the difference is.

Anybody play that? Looks like bundle fodder, but looks like it might be entertaining.

DMC 2 is AWFUL! Don't bother (but, if you do play it, just press square to win). play DMC 3 instead. (in fact, play it twice than play 2)

Wasn't DMC 3 one of the most difficult games of all times? I only played DMC 2 back then (don't know if a bad game, only played an hour or so and was VERY boring)... and just bought DMC 4 from GMG... that one is GREAT. I should try DMC 3 after

I have completed some games on 360/ps3 so yeah I should've said that earlier.

I remain of the opinion that DR2 is a better experience because DR2's plot is better. And sandbox mode has no value to me because the basic zombie killing in DR isn't worth sticking around for. It's the challenge of the time limit that makes the game worth it to me. Plus, the added zone and bosses and one reworked boss just aren't good enough to make up for the loss of that good boss.

But the games are TOO similar, such that it's practically pointless to play them both.

Actually just spent the last 5 or so hours with it. It's probably bundle fodder but looking at it, thought it would scratch an itch I had at that particular moment, and it did.

It's a little bit Chuzzle a little bit Puzzle Quest but much more manic than either. The game is essentially grinding away in the dungeon until you build up enough gold/wood/stone to continue your upgrades and get further in. Long before I finished upgrading my armor I had a run that came up with 9.7 million so I figured it should be a cakewalk to finish at that point, but I still haven't managed to get the 10 million needed to finish the game. The end game is very much a matter of just getting a lucky run plus a good board which can end up being mildly frustrating but it really doesn't get in the way of the addictiveness.

That's the thing with it, since each run only lasts a couple minutes, there's a very strong "One more run" aspect which can easily make the hours disappear on you. You're always just a couple runs away from the next upgrade, and once you've finished all your upgrades, it's just one more try to finish the game.

It will probably show up in a bundle at some point, but if it looks like something you want to play right now, I'd say it's worth it for the price. Gave me a solid day's entertainment so far, and I still need to settle in and get that final run to clear the game at some point.

Not if you get the special edition. It's much much much easier than the original DMC3. I raced through DMC3 so I could lead right into DMC4, and oops, it's a prequel. It's still definitely worth playing.

More easier? That can't be right - Try Dante must die difficulty then come back to me

I see what both of you did there.

It's about time. I don't even know what it entails, nor will I buy it without a heavy discount, but it just feels like it's been forever since the XBox exclusive release.

I grabbed this, too, for my wife. Had a $2 referral credit, so $6.16 out of pocket. From what I've seen, the level of humor in the LEGO Popular Franchise series of games has been top-notch, and she's a LotR fan. Looking forward to co-op play.

Portal 1 is probably about 3-4 hours
Spec OPs the Line is 5-7 depending on what difficulty and if you scour for all the intel items collectibles, I notice you started it, keep with it, it gets amazing at the 2 hour mark or so.
Just Cause 2 is fairly long but hella fun (18-20 hours for main story missions, 80+ hours to get all the collectables and free all the villages/towns/cities.

I'd say go with one of those.

Original DMC3 was hard, DMC3: SE made things a lot easier/less tedious. Original DMC3 was kinda Demon's Souls hard, difficult to get going but once you get past the first boss and get your second weapon the difficulty curve starts to ramp down.

Anybody know how to create an appmanifest file? I forgot mine on another computer, and now my game wants to redownload.

I might just fork over 20$ for Sacred 2 Gold.

And BTW, Soldak is a treasure trove of goodies. I'm interested in a game called Drox Operative. and then Din's Curse popped up to. Cool developer.

What game?

The Special Edition had its difficulty levels lowered. Easy Mode in DMC3 is Normal Mode in DMC3:SE, etc., etc. Hard Mode is "Very Hard Mode". So yes, DMC:SE is easier than DMC3. I'd imagine since he's concerned with the game being difficult, he be won't playing on the hardest difficulty level.

Wait, people finish Just Cause 2? I assumed everyone played about four missions and then started just lashing cars to helicopters and going on fire truck rampages through the city.

Does anyone know when Terraria could have another price drop? I was going to buy it but a friend of mine told me that it was $5 not so long ago and it even hit $2.50 as well but now it costs $10 and I am not sure if it is worth the $10. Sorry if this is the wrong thread to ask ):

I'd definitely throw some palate cleansers in the mix there. 7 third person shooter/action games in a row and you'll never want to play one again.
