UBI DRM on it?

 

[Dankk]

Bought. I've been waiting for this one to go on sale for a while. Heard good things about it.

Apparently this game has really good wheel support. I have a cheap Thrustmaster Ferrari GT Experience racing wheel, and it's listed in the system requirements:

Supported Peripherals: Windows-compliant keyboard, mouse, wired and wireless X360 controller, Logitech Momo Racing Force Feedback steering wheel, Thrustmaster Rally GT Force Feedback Pro Clutch Edition steering wheel, Thrustmaster Ferrari GT 2-in-1 Force Feedback steering wheel, Thrustmaster Ferrari GT Experience 3-in-1 steering wheel, Thrustmaster Ferrari F430 Force Feedback steering wheel, Thrustmaster Universal Challenge 5-in-1 steering wheel.

That came out in Sep 2011, is this par for the course on how quickly a game reaches a $7.49 daily deal? Is it good? I put this on my wish list when it came out anticipating this decision, lol. So any verdicts?

I hear it's better than Driver: Parralel Lines. Jeff Gertsmann from Giant Bomb really liked it, and I think he listed it in his top 10 games of the year. If I remember correctly TotalBiscuit really enjoyed the game too. Too lazy to link to their reviews right now though.

You have to be connected to the internet to start up the game, but after that you can go offline. Not nearly as bad as Ubisofts's "always-on" DRM, but more like a halfway point.

[stupid consumer]Well duh...I didn't bother researching this[/stupid consumer]
My only other regret was not getting the deluxe edition, oh well.

[EDUSAN]

what the hell is this game?!?!?!?

i cant wait for the summer sale... its end of june right?

 

[KaOTiK]

Yup, if tradition holds true. It will start on the 28th, the last Thursday of the month and run for a week.

I've discovered I like buying games at bargain prices more than actually playing them. As my collection grows bigger, it also gets harder to find more games to buy. I find myself wishing for a Steam Sale 2 or 3 weeks after the last one has ended. FML.

 

[EDUSAN]

hahahaha yeah... with all those indie bundles and stuff im getting more games than i have time to play

last week i got super meat ball, cogs and revelations 2012 (some bought, some gifted to me) i only played like 1 hour to cogs and 40 minutes to supermeat ball, 2 weeks ago i got Metro 2033 and i only played for 2hs....

of course, the fact that im playing d3 like 4hs everyday has a bit of blame

From the description:

Help Lucas MacGuffin (magician turned thief turned werewolf) sneak and smash his way through this fiendishly addictive comedy-puzzle-adventure game for PC and Mac. Winner of the Freeplay Award for Best Game Writing! With hilarious dialogue, charming hand-drawn art and huge replay value, it's perfect for seasoned adventurers and casual gamers alike.

 

[EDUSAN]

dude, go buy it, play it for 5 minuts and tell me if its worth it!

so we can both buy it and never play it!

 

[KaOTiK]

pff, you guys are weak and need to get your buying habits under control with those huge backlog of games.....

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis is the DD today

Sweet deal, if you don't already have it.

If you don't have it, get it. It is one of the all time Lucas Arts Scumm classics. 3 different methods of beating the game. The story slightly changes with the method of gameplay you choose and the voice for Indy is almost spot on.

 

[KaOTiK]

:whiste:

 

[Pray To Jesus]

Finally I get to beat this game I remember getting stuck on parrot and crackers when I was a kid without a guide and didn't kno what tot do it pissed me off

Pineapple Smash Crew is the DD today

 

[Barfo]

 

[KaOTiK]

[Craig234]

It's in the News section where you can click on it. The hamster that updates the store page with it probably died.

Post Apocalyptic Mayhem is the DD today

 

[KaOTiK]

Bejeweled 3 is the DD today

 

[KaOTiK]

Vessel is the DD today

 

[Craig234]

If you want to buy Vessel, it's better to get it on the developer's site:

http://www.strangeloopgames.com/

They are offering the same $4.99 price; and offering both a steam key and a direct DRM-free copy. Maybe they get a bigger cut of the money, too.
