I'm not sure I understand.
I guess those 2 and online mode issues, though apparently the online mode has been fixed (I actually only tried online once, got the game more for the single player).
Personally the 30 fps lock is not really a big issue. While 60fps+ would have been nice, it's not like much could have been done about it, since the game (full burst) is tied to the framerate (when the framerate goes lower than 30 fps, the game slows down)
Seriously? Basically taking the dictionary of previous Scribblenauts games and just adding the DC characters to it.
If you're wondering what Scribblenauts proper is then you just get dropped into levels where you have to solve basic puzzles that require objects you summon via your dictionary of words. It's fun for like a half hour, then you just start spamming BLACKHOLE and the like.

Thanks for the computer advice guys. I guess I will wait a bit to see if the new 800 cards lower the price of the 700 ones.
And dice, I have no idea what I have, my memory isn't that great. (My actual memory, the computer has good ram I believe)

Ahhh ok I didn't know about the online issues.
Yeah the 30FPS was explained since the game was made with that in mind. Reminds me of LA Noire. The facial animations are tied to 30FPS so the 60FPS mod just messes with the game.

Nothing but hopes and dreams.
We might see a indie sale or something since I recall that happened around spring last year. But it probably won't actually be tied to spring.
I never got the android version when I ordered from the humble store.
My hatred towards Phil Fish has diminished, so I'm in position to finally get around FEZ. Thanks!
That is very cool.
Does the Android version have controller support as well? Could sideload it onto the FireTV.
Make sure you double check as it is available

Huh, I just filter the android games on their store and it shows up. So I dunno.
Don't have the game yet so can't answer that but considering the kind of game it is I think touch controls would probably be better than using a controller.
Steam already has 2-way authentication though. That's why SteamGuard exists... Sure, it uses your email instead of your phone, but just activate 2-way authentication on your email and that will be exactly the same.
I already have the first Scribblenauts on Steam, sounds lke Unmaskes is not worth 6$.

All of the screenshots are in Russian...is the English translation competent?
Space Rangers HD: A War Apart is also on sale for 50% off as a part of the Weeklong Deals.
It is an HD rerelease of the Russian cult classic Space Rangers 2 where you the player are a "Space Ranger", defending the galaxy from the alien race Dominators who threaten the existence of all other races. It is a crazy mix of genres, with turn-based space combat, RTS planetary battles with the option to control the units from third-person perspective like a shooter, text adventure events and a shmup mode. Mind you, this game was originally released back in 2004 and is definitely still very much an "Euro jank" game.

It launched on the 11th officially but Valve was having issues getting it to show up in the new releases section apparently. Game is really neat!

Basically anything THQ that you forgot about is at Nordic now.

Have fun!. Fish issues aside, I think FEZ is a game worth playing.
Thank you!
Something is going on with GMG, though. Did something change recently? For some reason, the basket is displaying the total amount in euros even though I'm in the US. Has there been a policy change regarding prices with greenmangaming?
Yeah, just checked that as well, THQ. Man, what a bummer that was.
One of these days I'm going to check where it all went and what all the THQ franchises were, but today is not that day.
not tough at all. Problem is there's nobody playing the game right now. Pair with someone from here or a friend and go for them

Looks like there might be a problem for some people

Speaking of FEZ, finished the PC version earlier today. Still a great game, discovering things for the second time isn't obviously as rewarding, but what a joy regardless.
Also, someone posted this in the FEZ PSN thread, and I can't stop laughing at it.

I could go wrong for that price. I have to save all my extra money to repair my shoes. I'm pretty close to resorting to duct taping them.
Last game I preordered was ffx >.>
Quick Fez question: Are there any "upgrades" in the game? I got one that allows me to go through doors with two cubes on 'em -- err, I was able to go through one door like this, at least. Not sure if I obtained an upgrade that allowed me to do that, though. I only ask because I've gotten stuck in several areas and I'm not sure if some puzzles require "upgrades" to solve. Also: Should I go through each warp gate (I think that's what they're called) when they appear? I did that for all but the last one I've unlocked as I still had stuff I wanted to get in that area, but I'm not sure if I need to go through them or not.
I know about Steamguard, just wish it was extended to a phone option as well. Hell if I had to type in three different codes everytime I log in from an unknown source, I'd be happy enough.

Want to try getting them later?
Ahh, I'll have to reinstall it when I'm done with university entrance exams.The text is scalable, look in the options
From what I remember playing of the original release, it was pretty bad at some parts. The new HD rerelease got a new translation which is much better. The devs are taking feedback on errors in the localisation on the steam forums of the game and it seems to be mostly small grammatical mistakes.

The small little cubes you find are cube shards. When you collect 8, you get a full cube bit. This is why you can get into a 2-cube door now. There are other doors out there.
As for answering if there's an "upgrade" that you get... well, um,
maaayyybe.
Edit: As for when or if to go into the those warps, it's up to you. There's no wrong way. Explore when you feel lost and get lost exploring. AND CRANK UP THAT SOUNDTRACK!
Nope. The way you go through those doors is by finding both sides. Most of the areas you're stuck in have solutions that can be solved by understanding the code/reading about it online. Some of them have treasure maps and/or invisible platforms for you to jump on.
The only 'upgrade' is the hat itself and the 3D glasses when you enter new game+.

Not as good as the first, but pretty good nonetheless. They ruined the shotgun though.

Which I found refreshing and excellent after the bullshit in U2.
This is fair.
Sort of like Chloe in U2 though.
Hmmm, guess it can wait then. $20 for a game when I'm like 4 games behind? It could get cheaper before I'm ready to play it still.
They didn't want me.
Although that was before Steam greenlit CSD so maybe they would change their minds now, dunno.
I think a better point would be that people should support your hard work even if they can't spend GMG playfire credit on it.
Huh... I didn't look at today's rewards yet (assuming Gun Monkeys is in there, as I just saw you boot it up and then the inquiry here)... but the H2H is pretty stupid. Portal 2 will end up winning even though tons of people have already played and unlocked a majority of the achievements. :\

Man, if Autodesk charges what they do on their own website for Maya LT, good luck grabbing the dabbling enthusiasts. 800$ for a stripped down version of the overpriced 3700$ software package, not exactly the most ace of deals. Especially when you compare that Adobe's cloud subscription to Create Suite is 600$ for a year for every damned piece of software they make. Not exactly a one-ton-one comparison but chances are if you're using any of the main 3D software packages--XSI(goodnight sweet prince), Max or Maya-- you're going to be using some of Adobe's products in conjunction with them.
Maybe Maya LT's addition to the Steam store is just a warning shot to all of the successful TF2 and Dota hat makers using cracked versions of their software. After all, Autodesk sure as shit knows who they have and have not sold licenses to.
