Seriously get this if you enjoy rogue-likes or score attack platformers. On sale on PSN now even ($3.75 ps+,$7.49)
 
I concur. Spelunky is fantastical.

It was my Steam GOTY and in the top 3 of my GOTY voting otherwise. <3 Spelunky.

What is the quality on the AC games? I only ever played 1 and it was fun but obviously had a ton of problems. At what point did the series get great (if it did)? How many of the 23 subtitled entries are skippable?
The first game was my favorite, but I've only ever played AC, AC2, and AC3:L.

If I had to rank them, I'd do AC > AC3:L > AC2 -- mainly because I didn't really want to play GTA: Renaissance and that's really what AC2 was underneath all the pretense. AC played more like I'd expect Hitman to... which is why I liked it, problems aside.

Yep! Supposed to be 8 eastern! And remember, if you get it for PS4 it comes with the season pass for the PS4 and PS3 versions.
Huh, cool.

Which one sells for the most? I'd get the PC version for myself, but it's gotta be Uplay only, not Steam, so fuck that.

I honestly have no idea. I'm just going to get a copy of each and see for myself. You could ask gunnm since he sold copies of both.

JSP, I would rank the AC games as: AC2 > Brotherhood > Liberation > Revelations > AC > AC3. Most people consider Brotherhood to be the best, but I still love the second game more.

I pretty much agree with this. I consider 2 and Brotherhood to be interchangeable as best. 2 had mad charm, Brotherhood introduced some of my favorite multiplayer from that gen. That said, AC4 probably took my number 1 spot. As someone who was ready to be totally done with the franchise, that shit pulled me right back in.

I can't stop listening to Girl Talk.

He's super cool. I lost it when I realized you can even re-position the tip of his hat.

Be careful with that Master Sword. Lot of people--myself included--broke theirs trying to get the bottom of the handle off. And I'm super careful with that shit.

wow, really? Spelunky is soo 2012
You're so cutting edge it hurts, man.

Guys, guys, you want to know what I just thought, that Gone Home is like a good version of Dear Esther.
Seems like a reasonable thought. I'd probably agree. I plan on forcing my way through Dear Esther since Weevles gave it to me. I'm still not sure why... I think he hates me. :rofl:

I am right there with you on all of that (except that I haven't played 4 yet). Glad to know someone else here likes Girl Talk! I fuckin' loooove it! Mashups for life.

Dude's from my home town. Puts on fucking crazy shows. I've been stuck on Feed the Animals all damned day.

Good way to soften 'em up is to hit 'em with a hair dryer really briefly. Really briefly. It'll loosen the plastic enough to make it malleable. You'll melt the shit if you go Rambo though.

Alternatively, if you end up with loose joints, an hour in the freezer will do wonders for your toys.

 
Gotta get on that Divekick part Deux: Atari 2600 Fencing. ;)

Oh MGR:R VR missions 17, 18, and 19... I've missed you so...
You can glitch 19 by walking over the wall you become invincible I just learned. I wish I knew this before but 18 you're still fucked... ugh fuck that mission. Funny thing is it looks so easy on youtube videos I go back to watch other people play it and wonder why did this beat my ass but then I remember the two-three days straight I spent trying to beat it.

I don't recall 17 or it giving me trouble.

Isn't that Ubi thing for free AC4 or cheap AC4 supposed to be tonight?

It's currently $30 on amazon, but that's still too much considering I haven't played a console/mainline AC since AC2.
Supposedly at 8 est? 7 est? I refresh every hour nothing yet

1 was meh maybe watch the cutscenes, 2 is amazing. Brotherhood is an over priced expansion. Revelations was great but you need to have played 1. 3 sucked. 4 was really really fun. I think 2 is my favorite.

Currently waiting for liberation which was a vita game but its coming out on xbox. If its $15 I'll buy it but I'm thinking it'll be 20+

Yeah, that'll look good on a shelf. I'd planned to go with the Majora soundtrack purely for display purposes, but when I saw they changed the case from the pictures, I was glad I didn't.

Oh well. I've certainly worked through worse for worse games. It was still up there for me in 2013.
I just looked online and you can get that soundtrack on eBay for like <$25, I'll probably end up ordering one, the CN stuff usually goes for more then that! Also, I'll still give Mario and Luigi a shot at some point since you seem to enjoy a lot of the same games as me.

Also, THAT SKULLKID, why have I never seen that!?
Ha! When I saw that I was thinking I bet Action has this, couple posts down there's Action freaking out that he doesn't have it :p

I've been waiting for it to go down in price. Really would like to replay Jedi Knight 2 and Jedi Academy.
Well the sale price of $7.50 isn't that bad for the whole Jedi Knight series on Steam right now, plus there have been some in the Steam trading thread for like $5 if that's more what you wanted to pay.

My ranking is both similar and different since I liked 3 haha....AC2 > Brotherhood > AC3 > Revelations > Liberation > AC

Haven't played enough of 4 yet to rank it, but I do like it, just don't know why they made the combat worse then it was in 3 imo :/

I'm aware of who your avatar is. 

And they are the same person. Stop making it seem like the game is way more complex than it is. Marriage, wizard, happy ending.
