Title: BG&E - $5.
Post by: schild on August 22, 2008, 11:25:39 PM
Beyond Good & Evil - $5.

If you don't buy it at $5, I will pay people in the name of Michael Ancel to come and kill you.

Also, Audiosurf is $5.

Speaking of BG&E, I hear they are working on a sequel?

I played it a long time ago on Gametap.  From what I remember it was very fun, as long as you are into the action adventure genre.

Freaking awesome game.  The story really holds up even if you don't like the gameplay (which you should, it's really well put together).

Hmm, Steam says is Win2k/XP only. Anyone download it from Steam and running it on Vista?

Oh man, I should have someone gift me Fahrenheit so I don't have to get the censored Indigo Prophecy.

I picked up Fahrenheit off of D2D for $20 (http://www.direct2drive.com/725/product/Buy-Fahrenheit:-Indigo-Prophecy-Directors-Cut-Download) a year ago.  Same price now though :awesome_for_real:.

That said, there's not a whole lot they cut: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fahrenheit_(video_game)#North_American_version_changes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fahrenheit_(video_game)#North_American_version_changes)

I've played through both. I just want the uncut one as a completist, not for pixel boobies.

So, anyone played the steam version on Vista so far?


Title: Re: BG&E - $5.
Post by: schild on August 24, 2008, 08:17:03 AM
Vista 64. Shit is fucked up. I need to update my drivers though.

IP locking is the kind of bullshit I hate about steam and other online distribution systems.

Versus region locking or trying to buy something from Amazon.co.whatever?

I hate those, too!

But, ebay is always an option for physical media...

The soundtrack on this game is great too.
