^ Is dota 2 not just having to learn everything, before its fun?

I've heard it's pretty brutal if you can't remember what to click with what, when.

Yeah I seem to remember that being a right cunt on, and having those exact same feelings.

QT events can GTFO.

But far cry 2 is extremely boring in parts.

Just Cause 2 is awesome.

Also having never played Skyrim would I be able to get in to it now? It seems way to overwhelming.

Boring, or awesome?

Skyrim eases you in to the mechanics pretty easily I think... It's a good game, but it will eat your life.

Just finished the lot.

That was insane. I don't even know where to begin.

Crysis has just been knocked down to a couple of quid, might have to pick it up just to stress test the rig.

I've played almost all of those to completion on the xbox... want to play through far cry 2 again, I feel I didn't give that game the attention it deserved on console.

Spent far too much moneys I didn't have on the steam sale.

Fallout NV +dlc, borderlands 2 +dlc, deus ex HR +dlc, dishonored +dlc, max payne 3, system shock, left 4 dead. On top of arma 3 and skyrim legendary at full price.

Still more to come I guess. Not enough hours in the day... :/

Broke my PC last night. Installed a windows update, restarted to find 'missing operating system'...

Ultimate panic. Turns out the update had knocked out my raid thingy. Who knew.

New GTA trailer is amaze.

Bought ARMA 3 beta yesterday. Helicopters can eat a dick...

Died lots, but it's pretty fun. No idea what I'm doing though. Everyone else seems to.

Managed to turn on 'only your head moves' somehow, and took ages to figure out how to turn it off... that was annoying.

Might have to get some flyknit frees... love my free run 2's. Most comfortable trainer evar.

Seems much less of a fuck on... whens this steam summer sale start then :)

Right, apparently they're the same files on a PC or mac?

Just copy the relevant GCFs or NCFs and files in the common/ folder (select where applicable) from SteamApps\ on Windows to SteamApps/ on your Mac.

SteamApps is typically C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps in Windows, and is /Users//Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps in Mac OS X.

But, that still doesn't solve that I probably cant buy, say far cry 3 (PC only) to download on a mac, to take home to play on the PC. So, I think I either have to instal a VM with windows on my mac, and download at work, or suck it up and leave downloads on for 3 days straight at home.

Pff.

Ner nah, work computer is a mac - so Ive got a feeling Im going to have to get virtualisation software or something to run windows here in order to do it.

I think.

Right, I've done a bit of googling, but can't find any info on the net. This is probably too niche of a 'problem'... but here goes:

Does anyone know if there's any way of me purchasing a game on steam (either on my PC at home, or my mac at work) - lets say it's a PC game, and downloading the PC steam files to a drive (int or ext) to take home and pop on the PC.

My reason is that we have ridiculously good internet at work, but my home 'broadband' gets 200k down. Ugh.

If i set stuff off overnight, it usually takes about 2 days to do.

^ goes perfectly with your avatar.

Ah fuck. New page... shoulda quoted.

Rome 2 is slightly discounted as a preorder on steam atm.

Worth getting? I'm not sure how 'hardcore' it is, as I'm not usually very patient when it comes to stategerisementing.

Ha, yeah... it already ate my life once. Round 2.

Ding fucking ding.

Got skyrim. Can't believe how much better it looks on PC vs Xbox.

'Skyrim is going to automatically detect the best settings for your machine'
'Skyrim has selected Extreme Ultra settings'
Awwww Yeaaaaahhh....

^^ not true.

Loved ico, couldn't get past the first dude on colossus. Nearly smashed my controller.

Uber PC arrived. Plan of action:

Guild wars 2 - done. Looks aaaaamazing.
CS:GO - done. Why would anyone need it running at 300fps maxed out. I can, so I will.
Skyrim legendary thing - en route
Farcry 3
Borderlands 2
Dota 2
Watchdogs ?

Am I missing anything?

I was kinda looking forward to the new xbox 'features' bar the fact that it worried me due to my shite internet connection... as much as I'm not as angry as that guy ^, I still think it's a shame they didn't stick to their guns. It's not like they're going to make up a huge amount of lost sales this way, most people who didn't like it, probably still don't like it due to the fact it could be easily implemented in the future.

Who knows. I'm glad I'm out of it for this gen. I'll wait till something actually awesome comes along I think.

Word.

^ and want hotline miami 2... lots.

As long as you've got a Radeon HD 7950 with Boost or a GeForce GTX 660 Ti!

Ordered the new GTX 780 :D

Quite fancy getting skyrim and seeing how many mods I can run at the same time before shit gets shit...

Has anyone got any suggestions for some PC games to stretch my new rig when it arrives?

I'm a bit out of the PC gaming loop since only owning consoles for the last god knows how many years.

I think C&C red alert might have been my last PC game :/

Actually, that can't be true. Operation flashpoint?

^^ likewise.

But there's a lot of decisions they've made re: transitions that really jar for me.

I really like the new icon set, but that really isn't enough innovation for a brand new number. Everything feels a bit tacked on, and as if 1 person was doing each thing with a vague brief, and then they chucked it all together at the end.
