PCs and Steam: Thread 01

[speedlolita]

Hey, I've had skills mapped to my keyboard for 2 years in the MMO I play. Will have to take my time and get used to mapping the skills to new buttons.

As for the Eneloop, I'm quite aware they're pretty much market leading. Panasonic make the best battery cells AFAIK! Don't think I use any devices with AA batteries enough to justify some though. Game Boy Light is about it!

[Sam The Man]

ah yes i understand what you meant now!

[kryss]

It is rather, yet to use any of the extra buttons yet though!

Do they do one for those of us who use our left hands for the mouse? (despite being right handed...)

Funnily enough i am left handed but use my right hand for the mouse!

Well the GTX750Ti didn't last that long as I replaced it with this



I was quite surprised just how big and heavy the card was and had to shift HDD around to make room in the case. Runs very quietly and ultra on everything I've tried so far at 1080P. It came with a free game, unfortunately that was an Ubisoft game with the choice of one from FarCry 4, AC: Unity or The Crew, so I went with Farcry 4. Will give that a go in a bit and see how it runs.

Don't know if true but PCGamer are rumbling that the Steam Autumn Sale will start this wednesday

Valve has introduced a 30 day waiting period before gift keys can be traded on. Handily, just in time for the new sale.

[MartyG]

Steam sale is now active up until 2nd Dec. There are over 5000 discounts but much of it is pretty old stuff. Alien Isolation is in there along with Lords of the Fallen. Worth a look if you've got an hour to go through them all.

[speedlolita]

Hoping they have Far Cry 3 for like ?2. Gotta love PC gaming.

I'm assuming Steam sales are always like this... 230 pages to wade through and a hell of a lot of repeated items

The main deals are usually on the front page, best course of action is to add games to your wish list then check that when sales come around.

I've spent over a tenner and can't recall exactly what I've bought pffft.

[Neon Ignition]

Are the deals in the Xmas sale a lot better or is likely to be a very similar line of offers?

Lone Wolf HD Remastered out on Steam



Kinda tempted by this, I remember the books fondly but I fear that the game would end being nothing special.

PC game Hatred was stripped off Steam Greenlight by Valve but is now back up. According to the CEO the devs draw the line at killing children... and animals, which proves context is key as GTAV goes further in that regard and Valve is just $$$$... sorry, fine... with that
