Double Fine is rereleasing Psychonauts, Costume Quest, and Stacking on disc at retail next year: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/130022-Double-Fine-Reclaims-Costume-Quest-and-StackingEscapist posted:"I am pleased that we have regained full control over Costume Quest and Stacking, following a daring and top-secret midnight raid on the Nordic Games headquarters in Vienna," Schafer said in a statement. Terms of the deal weren't revealed, but Nordic CEO Lars Wingefors suggested that it was in fact an amicable arrangement. "I feel compelled to point out that we were happy to transfer distribution rights for Costume Quest and Stacking back to Double Fine in an entirely non-secretive and heist-free manner," he said.

Lord Wexia posted:Seriously if you haven't played the first Gears, you should definitely try it out. The campaign is decently fun and even more so with a co-op buddy. If you have a gang of 8, it is my favorite multiplayer of this generation. I played through it relatively recently and it while still a blast to play has not aged well graphically at all. Also that krill mission with the UV tank was worse then I remembered. Multiplayer is still where it's at though.

weaaddar posted:Yeah Halo wars was actually really fun, but I picked it up after it died down. It would've been nice to try my hand on line with the game. Elephant All multiplayer matches boiled down to either spam the super hornets with anders or base rush with brutes. Even after all the nerf patches those were still the predominant strategies.

I hopped onto Gears of War Multi last night to get a taste of what it's still like for when it comes out on GWG. I thought I'd give a quick bullet point of my matches last night, Spoilers: Whatever is left of the community is atrocious. My first 3 matches were in ranked and they went actually okay. No glitching, no out of bounds, and no rage quitting. I played fairly terrible in these so I decided to switch to unranked to get some practice in. First match, I chainsawed a guy hiding behind a wall trying to snipe. Got Booted. Second match I joined, I beat down the host and got booted. Third match I joined, I sniped a player and got booted. Repeat this for another 3 matches. So I switched back to rank; where I couldn't be booted. My first ranked match was okay until the last round where on bullet marsh the entire enemy team got off the map trying to stall, we wouldn't even have won if one of their players hadn't accidentally walked into the krill and they all went to save him. Repeat this for my second match on tyro station except torque bows won the match. My last for the night was a 45 minute, first to five, on Fuel Depot because the entire enemy started doing the roadie run glitch and the entire match boiled to glitch wars just to finish the drat match, I was legit angry at videogames afterwards. Now I really doubt when it goes free that the new players will no how to do all of these glitches but they're still really bad glitches that really need to be patched out. That said I did have a lot of fun in those matches that did go well. Roadie Run glitch for those who don't know: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nit04wI8U8

Temascos posted:Planning my Xbox 360 purchase down the line, got a basic list of what I want to get but since I play multiplats on PS3 (Except for ports I've heard are terribad like Skyrim and Fallout which I will most certainly try) is this list up to scratch if I wanna make the most out of it? Gears of war 1 is currently free if you have xbox live gold. All of the halos work on the 360, go with whatever is cheapest. The order of the story is halo wars, reach, 1, 2, odst, 3, 4 if you care. Skip kameo, it is only an ok game. If you are not a hardcore racing fan get horizon, if you are get 4.

The main game we play is actually borderlands 2 with us finding random games to play. We usually only play bad games.

Am I going crazy or is stuff being pulled from marketplace? I went to go download the Quake 4 demo for my cousin to play and the game isn't listed at all any more and just now I was looking up some C&C3 stuff and I can't download a single trailer from the marketplace. I had to go to my download history to grab the trailer I was looking for.

Tsietisin posted:Are either of the other two characters worth getting. I'm just about to finish the main story (Or at least it feels that way) and would like to expand the game a little. Skip Mechro and get the Psycho. The Psycho starts off slow but is pretty awesome no matter which way you spec. Gaige is pretty cool but she starts fall behind all of the other characters once you get past level 50.

I can't figure out how to select the pause/play icon and hitting A does nothing, and if I hit B it backs out and then all I can do is resume from the spot I was at before I rewound. The A button works for me but try pressing Start.

No thanks, I already own Brutal Legend. These are some really good deals, what exactly is The Bridge? I've never heard of it and it looks fairly crazy. Kifisonfire posted:Ducktales is half price too which I guess is a big deal? I never played it so I don't have the nostalgia for it to be honest. Has anyone else played it and not played the original? That would be me. It is only OK, it's a 2D platformer that is pretty good to look at.

If you are having trouble using a premade vehicle in a race, at the start of the race get out of the vehicle and press B. You can then remove and rearrange parts to cut out unnecessary weight.

Starhawk64 posted:As someone who is finally getting a 360 because now it's the time to start collecting games for it before the prices skyrocket, what are the must-have exclusives? Obviously there's Halo, which one is considered the best? I like action games, FPS games, driving games, and basically anything with explosions and non-stop action. Console cross platform is fine as I prefer the 360 controller over the PS3 controller, but no games that I could play also play on PC (unless the ports suck goat balls) because that's obviously my platform of choice for multiplatform games when I'm not loving around on my 3DS. I've already grabbed Raiden Fighters Aces and Forza Motorsport 4. Earth Defense Force 2017, Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts, Halo 3: ODST, someone else will probably have better list than me.

raditts posted:I think it'd make for a better thread if instead of everyone just vomiting up a PYF list that nobody else will read, that for each game you list you put a paragraph or two for why people should play it. And not just some "I CANT EVEN DESCRIBE IT YOU JUST HAVE TO EXPERIENCE IT" horseshit, like actually sell someone on it. Sort of like the list in Kennyman's link. I'll give this a shot: The Darkness Save old ladies and complete RPG fetch quests with your anime tentacle arms. Make phone calls on pay phones and jump turnstiles. Then you get to throw cars at mobsters while reminiscing about World War 1. Casual stereotyping of New Yorkers/New Jerseyans may be involved. Earth Defense Force 2017 Aliens come to Earth and before First Contact is even made, the UN dubs the Aliens the Ravagers. You then proceed to give a 171 gun salute to: giant ants, giant spiders, not-Godzilla, more giant ants, 1950's era giant robots, giant giant spiders, and 1950's era UFOs.

I played a game of Civ Rev last night and I must be missing something because that is literally the most boring game I've ever played. Literally the second half of the match was the AI players declaring war on me and then their cities joining mine and then the AI going 'well I didn't really want that city anyway, let's be friends *kicks can*' and then attacking me anyway. Which never worked because apparently I was the only one who researched warships and tanks. It took me forever to realize that you didn't actually have resources just a resource pile that slowly takes chunks out of what you are building and not all at once, so that one is on me.
