Digital is better for quick access with little physical storage space and no disc scratches to worry about.

Physical is better if I want to sell a game.

My GF watched it last night.  I did not really get caught up by Lost in Space.

Dark Matter really never went anywhere.  After watching it, I thought that it could have been called Doesn't Matter.

Drop down menus sound fancy, but also complex.  Keeping user input simplified would be good.

From a company stand point, they do not legally have to offer a warranty for their products at all.  It makes sense to me that a warranty would not be intact if 3rd party parts were used to modify or repair the original work that the company was modifying.  The warranty cannot realistically extend to work or parts that they did not originally use in the manufacture of the product.

So.. like..

Grindspine:

PSP: 3rd Birthday     played X    beaten _      100%   _

PC: HOB                  played X    beaten X      100%  _

PC: ICEY                 played X    beaten X       100% X

Somethin' like that?

So, every site user would have a page linked from their profile to a list of games they have.  That list would show next to it if the game was beaten or yet to be beaten?

Consolidated screenshots from my Steam gaming over the years!

I have taken some nice snapshots, especially on my extended vacation to Skyrim!

100% completion!

I still really like the Apex Supercase TX381 mATX mini tower with built-in handle on top and front loaded 120mm fan.



If I had the room, I would like to make my next build in a Corsair Carbide Air 240 though.

I have been partial to the Logitech G5 for years, so much so that I bought a second one to use for parts to keep my first one working.  But, the time has come to retire the G5 mice and move onward.

I have tried a Razer Basilisk, Logitech G402 Hyperion Fury, and Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum over the last two weeks.

Between the three, I like the feel of the G402 the most.  However, I have pets that like to chew, so the more durable G502 (metal scroll wheel, braided cable) will likely be my main mouse for the foreseeable future.

Who has played it?  I put maybe half an hour into the original release, then put the game on the back burner after a super sad start to the game.

Steam released a "Definitive Edition" (whatever that means) and it sparked my interest again.  I am not far into it, but the graphics and sound are outstanding.  The beginning is surprisingly sad, so be prepared for that if you play it..

This game looked really Interesting.  After you're review here... I'm probably going to pick this up on the next sale.  The art styling it interesting as well.  Looks cool

It is worth playing.  There are enemies, but not an insane amount.  The focus is more exploration than battle, however, you do gain enough battle enemies to fight some large & disgusting foes.

I recommend!

They both suck 

Now I am going to go play with a lightsaber though after I answer this call on my 1960s style flip phone.

I finished the game HOB on Steam.  It is a realllly good exploration game.  The plot is fairly esoteric; graphics are amazing though!  It oddly has a bit of the vibe from Journey on the PS3 mixed with very little guidance and exploration until you find a way, like early Metroid games.  The gameplay is just solid; it was a satisfying game with a rather odd ending.

I may have a few games that could not be installed when I first got them (bought on package deals, did not have the supported graphics card at the time, etc.), but overall I have maybe half of my library installed.

There are many games that I bought on a steam sale, tried playing 1-2 times, and uninstalled.  With the Greenlight program, too many really crappy independent games are released on steam with poor quality control and bug-fixing.

The first party valve games are great, for the most part.  There are also quite a few for which steam will start a third party background launcher for a game.  Those can be aggravating.

I have so many games that I have not completed.  At times, I will list them out and make a goal to seriously play them.  Lately games have to be put on the back burner so often though.

I would be down for playing if I can make the time for it.  I miss being a college student where I could game on a nightly basis.

I play a custom vs a computer opponent or a custom arcade game of Nexus Wars (center bridge updated + zombitastrophie mod) once in a while.

The necromancer expansion was a welcome nostalgic foray into Diablo II days.  I have not had much time to play it lately though.
