It sounds less like a "Valve console" and more like "standardized PC hardware."

Exactly. The stupidity about this "valve console" is driving me insane.

Some good deals this weekend on titles I've been waiting for - picked up Saints Row 2 for $3.75 and Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines for $5.

cool breeze · « **Reply #3242 on:** March 03, 2012, 10:16:38 PM »

there's an essential mod for Bloodlines that I'm totally blanking on, but it makes it adds in widescreen, cut content, and generally makes it less unfinished.

Bebpo · « **Reply #3243 on:** March 03, 2012, 11:03:36 PM »

Yeah, I grabbed SR2. Will play it someday instead of my PS3 version which is more stable, but also more ugly.

Oath in Felghana (basically, ever Ys game but 1, 2 and both versions of 4) has you actually swinging the sword. There's something to be said of just mindlessly running into enemies and kicking their asses though... Oath in Felghana on Steam is awesome, hopefully we will one day see Ys Origin and the Tits games on there too.

XSEED Games to Start Publishing on Steam

First two titles to be Ys: The Oath in Felghana and Ys Origin from developer Nihon Falcom

Torrance, Calif., (March 13, 2012) – XSEED Games, an independent-minded publisher, is proud to announce that they will be bringing Ys: The Oath in Felghana and Ys Origin, both from acclaimed Japanese developer Nihon Falcom, to PC on Steam. Ys: The Oath in Felghana will launch on 3/19 at a price of $14.99. More details on the launch of Ys Origin will be provided at a later time.

“People have been asking for Falcom’s great catalog of PC games to be officially made available in English for a long time,” said Jun Iwasaki, President of XSEED Games. “To start our new publishing arrangement on Steam with two standout entries from Falcom’s action-based Ys series, one of which has never been made available in English before, is an ideal situation for us, and we are excited about the future possibilities.”

Ys: The Oath in Felghana & Ys Origin
XSEED Games delighted RPG fans in 2010 and 2011 when the company published several Ys titles from legendary RPG developer Nihon Falcom to the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system, and now Ys fans can celebrate once more as two of the series’ most revered titles, Ys: The Oath in Felghana and Ys Origin, are heading to PC as digital downloads via Steam.

Ys: The Oath in Felghana is an action RPG driven by fast-paced combat and paired with an intricate puzzle-filled world, and an enhanced port for the PSP system garnered many accolades when published by XSEED in 2010. This Steam release is true to the original Japanese PC release from 2005, but with added Steamworks features such as Steam Achievements and Steam Cloud support. The game follows the ongoing adventures of series hero Adol Christin and his trusty companion Dogi.

Conversely, Ys Origin serves as a prequel to the original Ys, and is the first Ys title not to feature Adol Christin or Dogi. This will mark the first time that the game, originally released in Japan for PC in 2006, will be officially released in English. Set 700 years before the first title in the Ys series, the game’s story focuses on the twin Goddesses and the mysterious Black Pearl made famous in Ys I & II, and follows the adventures of several playable characters as they ascend the menacing Darm Tower.

Will double dip on them when they're dirt cheap. Playing Japanese PC games is always a hassle.

Yes, if you have any interest in a modern and less linear take on the classic adventure game. It solves a lot of problems with them, though the camera made me a little wobbly. Great game.

Is Dungeon Seige actually worthwhile? I've heard it mentioned all the time but people's standards on action-RPGs (with loot?) aren't exactly high.

archnemesis · « **Reply #3281 on:** March 25, 2012, 05:36:43 PM »

I played 10 hours of both the first and the second Dungeon Siege games and they're decent. If you've already played Diablo II, Torchlight, Vampire the Masquerade: Redemption, Titan Quest, and Nox then they might be worth picking up.

They're decent action-RPGs with lots of loot to grab and enemies to kill. Nothing really exceptional, but worth playing if you don't have anything currently waiting in your backlog.

2 and 3 are decent, anyway, I never could get into the first game.

I bought Dustforce. Seems cool but too many buttons to remember on the keyboard. How do you get a X360 controller working with this? Do you need to remap each button/analog one by one? Also is there an order you are supposed to approach the worlds in? As in a proper difficulty curve?

otoh I listened to the whole ost last night while watching some porn, excellent, excellent soundtrack. Will be listening to this for a while. Totally captures that chiptune feel and is nicely original in its compositions.

Timber · « **Reply #3298 on:** May 02, 2012, 08:05:36 PM »

I got through the whole game with a keyboard (

) so I'm not sure about gamepad stuffs.

As for the levels, just follow the path starting at the tutorial. There are books in each area of the hub that list all the levels in order of difficulty. The controls might take an hour or two to get used to so just practice in the first couple of levels and try to get dem SS rankings. It'll click eventually.

i mapped all the available controls to my 360 controller but i cant seem to enter levels... i choose a level. hit PLAY and it does nothing. i dunno.
