Gonna answer the comments of the two chucklefucks :P : @Kaiser you know its true Kaisi ;). @Swingle CF was an Uberbro and got me Sanctum 1 so we can play it.
Now we got that out of the way, just wanted to say that I am sad I was unable to join the last DMS event or the TCR recording, as I got a cold and had fever. Hope I can join in the next event.
By the way when it comes to boxart (and what loremaster Swingle said), have you ever bought a game (PC or console) based on the boxart and description and was disapointed by it? Me and bro had some pocket money back in the ninetees and we were deciding between two new games. It was between "Dragon Lore 2" and "Diablo". We got Dragon Lore 2 because we were woried our mom would not aprove of a game with the devil on the cover, lol. Dragon Lore 2 was kind of a let down. It had cool prerendered graphics for the time and was a fantasy themed action adventure, but I got stuck in the woods, or the second CD failed to load. I got the first one on GOG, but yeah Diablo would of been cooler. Got that one a few years later, but having a new copy of that. Yeah video game magazines were great back then to avoid these kind of situations, and thanks for the internet today. But yeah back then the boxart and description was all we had. Great episode as usual man!
What is your opinion on Steam Machines? Asking since they were released over three weeks ago but you never mentioned them at all. I was thinking of picking one up since I like the idea of having a PC in console form. However, after I learned that 1/7th of the games on Steam were compatible, my interest quickly diminished. Hopefully Valve will convince developers to co-develop their games from the ground up with Steam OS in mind later on down the road. Until then, it is a no go for me. Will probably just end up getting a PS4 down the road instead.
I second the call for you to make more YouTube game reviews. It seems in recent years a lot of the guys I follow have gotten away from making reviews and do more discussion type crap that I don't care for.
Exclusive original XBOX recommendations: Blinx 1 & 2 (3D adventure game with time travel elements), Otagi 1 & 2 (3D hack n slash game set in Japan or something), two more refreshingly original 3D adventure games: Raze's Hell and Stubbs the Zombie. Check 'em out brotha!
I enjoyed the spot on commentary regarding your podcasting style. Part of the charm of your show is that you seem not to care if you do the show or not.

ReplyDeleteHow do you create folders to organize your Steam games? I notice you did this for some games you bought during a previous Steam sale.
