Steam Daily Deals:12/18/11 Sunday: Dead Island $19.99 50% off:Wishlist Giveaway

[Dankk]

I asked in another forum. Apparently the worst thing about it are the controls. If you have a wired 360 controller to play it with, then it's not bad. I'll give it a try.

The controls are so bad that there is a noticable delay after any input, and even then the game feels extremely floaty.

I was pretty disgusted by it.

I played all the way through Bully, and honestly it was pretty terrible. I had to play with the 360 controller and even then the controls were pretty bad. For some reason aiming with the slingshot was super slow, no matter how I adjusted it. The game is also locked to 30FPS for some reason, and you need a crack to fix it; there is no way to adjust it in game or through INI files. I also ran into various game breaking bugs - probably stuff that's specific to the PC port.

The worst thing though is that the game is just plain boring. Missions are bland and the world just feels empty. Luckily the game is short and I was able to scratch it off my "to play" list in a weekend. The only redeeming feature of the game is the characters, and the story, which is in your typical Rockstar style. I only finished it because I felt obligated to do so after paying for it.

I would recommend people not pick up this game. There is plenty of other good stuff to play now. And even a lot of F2P games would surpass this quality wise.

Yup, click on the banner in the Steam client and it will bring you to the game on sale (in this case Terraria) and on the top right corner you should see a Daily Wishlist Giveaway box that is checked saying you are entered.

Sponsor will select ten (10) winners from eligible entrants each Day by random drawing conducted within forty-eight (48) hours of the end of the applicable Day.

Having said that, the possibility of winning is pretty damn low, but still better than zero.

I think its already out

 

[ImpulsE69]

I ended up getting Terraria too. Been putting it off for awhile

 

[rivethead]

This daily wishlist giveaway is brilliant marketing. It ends on the day the Steam Holiday Sale begins. So basically it entices everyone to visit Steam every day this month and then.....Wham! They start the Holiday sale and all of us Zombies who didn't win the wishlist giveaway open our wallets and fill our library with games we won't touch for a year.

Brilliant.

 

[ImpulsE69]

Terraria should have been called....Strip Miner 2049'er! is there a AT server?

I blame Skyrim, I was making the thread while playing it

Okay, bought Terraria and played 15 minutes, then shut it off.

Fall down a hole and can't get out. It's dark, so I can't see anything and I end up drowning in an underground lake. WTH?

What did we learn? Don't fall down holes you can't see
