That is very true actually. One day i'll pick one, I guess two weeks from now.

Bye, Avatarlessica?

Ugh, SteamDB updated MGS with "Sept 1st" so it's no longer "8 hours from now"/noon. Ugh ugh ugh. Konami, what are you doing? People have been able to play the retail version for a week now. RELEASE THE GODDAMN THING.

Well it's showing "coming soon" on the steam page so that means Konami is probably updating the countdown to the real time 12 am est.

I know I know, I'm just kidding

who wants to play Rocket League?
 
Bought Tales From Borderlands and Game Of Thrones + 3 more, I doubt I am going to play them but I don't think they will get cheaper than that either.

I checked out the first15-20 minutes if GOT and, outside of the typical janky animations that your average TT game has, I actually was really into what I played.

I look forward to the last episode coming out so i can plow right through that season
 
The one game I've been trying to get for a week on the AW stream isn't in the devolver build your own bundle?

These mental gymnastics some are doing to themselves over MGSV's unlock time. I've resigned myself that it's tomorrow at store update time, which odds on it probably is. Konami's communication on the matter has pretty much shown they don't have a clue and even if they do have a set in stone release time earlier that the store update time it looks like they haven't bothered to tell Valve about it. What with it being quite soon to release anyway chances are they fucked that up good and proper. Would have been nice to dick about today but anything after 12pm here and an early release would be pointless for me. Well truth be told anything other that releasing 5 days ago with my super fast broadband speeds would have been a waste.

Stupid question, but i can't remember. Does an update of Nvidia driver requiere a reboot?

Only if the client itself needs an update iirc.

Well we can laugh but some PS4 owners can play game for days now and even pre-load from PSN.

But they miss out on the ability to play through the games as Hideo Kojima tho, i think thats a fair trade.

Two question regarding TPP:
1) I didn't have the chance to play GZ. Is it a problem?
2) Do we know the size of the game?

Storywise? Yes, definitely. But its only 2 hours long, easy to catch up.
Gameplaywise you miss out on some minor stuff like additional mother base stuff and a few costumes, but nothing of importance. Tho, its said that GZ players get something "really special" that "never has been done before in video games".

Friend of mine has MGS V early

cool easter egg spoiler

today is his birthday and characters in game sung him happy birthday
 
Dragonball Xenoverse was one of the few games that unlocked on Steam the previous day. They even pushed the release ahead so it came out in the mid-late afternoon for North America.

C'mon, Konami.

i dont think just saying spiders in zkylon context counts as a joke anymore -__-

or its like the laziest kind at least..



this game is great play it

Oh I know that's why I didn't even attempt to make a real joke lol.

finally made my post in the 52 games a year challenge

I waited till i felt that i hit a hard 52 games before making my post. and no list is more valid that a list that features Sonic 4 - Episode 1
I've beaten so many games since I last updated, I know I'm past 52. Might get on that today.

I really have no idea about Game Of Thrones, which I suspect might hurt my enjoyment

Im still sitting at 26. Tho, i've played through multiple asslong RPG's and VN's, they should all count as 2-4 games. Unfair, biased contest.

will it be playable today?

It unlocks in 5 hours in EU and in 10 hours in the US of A, if that answers your question. Unless of course, the displayed unlock time is totally unreliable again.

There's been a lot of buzz about whether or not that's right. A lot of different times being thrown around. 8PM EDT, 12 AM EDT, etc.
