    I just finished playing the third and final DLC for this game. Good times. The DLC areas actually seemed a bit better-designed than most of the areas from the vanilla game. And it was certainly hard as hell. I don't think I died much in the tutorial section (probably helped that I started as...

    So I think I'm going to go ahead and recommend this game: Crypt of the Necrodancer. https://store.steampowered.com/app/247080/ It's been on my Steam wishlist, and I bought it this weekend since it was on sale. Played it for about two hours now, and it's every bit as fun, challenging, and...

    I still really want to play it, but I'm holding out for a sale. But if there's no deal by Black Friday, I'll probably just get it regardless. It does look amazing. Good to hear you're enjoying it.

    ...and ditto here. Also, the narrator's voice here sounds suspiciously like Jeremy Irons. Probably just someone with a similar-sounding voice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4Yf_UTeHaw

    How many of us are gay? And what do Jazzfanz think about it?

    The stats are really interesting and hard to nail down. The 10% number originally came from the Kinsey Reports, and is still often quoted today. On the other hand, Wikipedia is telling me that a 2012 US survey had 3.8% of Americans self-identifying as gay. There's a breakdown by state, pretty...

    There's a Capcom sale on Steam this weekend. If for some insane reason you've never played Resident Evil 4, get it now for $10. It's my favorite game ever, with the possible exception of Dark Souls... and I've played a lot of games. https://store.steampowered.com/app/254700/

    Yup, Borderlands 2 is awesome. The Borderlands "Pre-Sequel" will be out in about a month, too.

    I didn't. A lot of people seem to like it, but I was unimpressed after playing the beta. I get the feeling it's been hyped up way past what the game itself actually merits. I'll be interested to see how the game is received by critics, but so far there are virtually no reviews up. Metacritic...

    The Walking Dead

    Different strokes. I thought season four was as good as any of the previous seasons. Although I admit the new guys with the truck are stupid. And the Governor being a crappy character may have been partially due to casting, but any character that bad has to be attributed more to bad writing...

    The Walking Dead

    I thought season three was the worst one, mostly because the Governor was a stupid character. I actually quite liked season four in general, and so I'm definitely looking forward to finding out what they do with season five. I'm particularly looking forward to more Carol, as I think she had...

    No problem. I'm probably the biggest gamer geek on this board, so I'm always happy to give people whatever help I can in finding things they might like. As for your question, theoretically there's a good way: add any games you're thinking about getting to your Steam wishlist. You can then...

    Well, of course your best bet if you liked Journey is either Flower or flOw, which are games by the same developer (I love all three). But like Journey, they are both for Sony consoles only. Kinda hard to recommend without more of a genre guideline, but one I've already talked about in this...

    Not quite the same thing, but I was reminded of this. Call a spade a spade. ------------------------------ There’s a condition in combat -- most people know about it -- it's when a fighting person's nervous system has been stressed to its absolute peak and maximum -- can't take any more...

    Speaking of X-COM, I'll be getting Xenonauts as soon as there's a Steam sale on it: https://store.steampowered.com/app/223830/ It's basically a remake of X-COM that sticks much closer to the original. I'm looking forward to checking it out. And although I haven't played the remake...

    Nice to know I convinced someone to get Okami. My favorite game critic, Keza Macdonald, called it "the only game in history to out-Zelda the Zelda series." I really should play more Zelda games. I own Twilight Princess, OoT, and Majora's Mask, but I've never actually played them! Oh, my...

    I spent countless hours playing ES3, ES4, and Fallout 3. But by the time Skyrim rolled around, I was bored of the formula. Too much of the same thing. I never got into Civ, I'm not much of an RTS guy. But I've been known to like the occasional turn-based strategy/4x game (Orion 2...
