There have been a lot of exciting Steam chart runs as of late. I'm attributing that to the relatively slow release period, but if it causes any developers to take risks, it can only benefit us users (and them).

Considering I rented this on release day, then the next morning went out and bought the collectors edition, I can only say: YAY!
PLEASE finish this one, don't let it get taken away (I'm looking at you, Max). I adore Sam Lake's writing to a stupid fanboi level, so I really want to see a proper sequel.

sure a nice game. but it does have some control issues. also cant agree with the camera being so far left of alan. why not in the middle, like every other game.
plus the the combat is difficult at times. i hardly have any ammo left, it takes ages to burn off this shadow and they still can handle 4-6 bullets until they die once you burn off this shadow.

I don't know.. until half way through the game I was at full amo for all my weapons but the pistol... and that was because I only used the pistol... and I never used any batteries. Although I am known for playing games very cautiously, and hoarding everything! I still don't know what the flares look like in the game!Metalrocks said:
Was a superb game though, I look forward to finishing it!
how you do this, that you dont have use batteries? and seriously, no flares? dint you use them when you got attacked from like 4-5 enemies wile you went to lovers peak?Elementary - Dear Watson said:
im now at the part were i try to escape the police. the flashbangs are working very well. but still, my ammo is low, and i got only the revolver at this stage.
If you don't use up all the charge of one set of batteries, they will recharge as you run around... I will always stop it before it reaches the bottom in order to not use the batteries incase I need to use them later... ironically I have died a few times from being overwhelmed because I am to worried about what is going to happen next rather than what is happening now! And it does mean most of my fight scenes involve me running backwards around the scene, dodging attacks!Metalrocks said:
I have also used the 'lure bad guys to a street lamp so I can heal and they dissapear' tactic too, then try again! As you can imagine I am not getting through the game very fast... Especially as I am also an obsessed completionist, and in doing so managed to wreck my car in the first driving section causing me to have to do the whole thing on foot... man that took a long time, and there are always 2 axe throwers chasing you...! :/
lol, i see. well, i never had any problems with the batteries. i had more then enough of this though and i know it recharges it self when you dont aim. also, you find so many throughout the game. and dont worry about the flares either. you always will have enough. i never ran out of them. you will find plenty and they are sure handy against a huge group or bigger enemies.Elementary - Dear Watson said:
but let me give you a hint: later on you will encounter a bulldozer. so you must use your batteries. you will see for your self. i died at least 10 times. its amazing how fast this thing can drive and turn.
There companies that complain about Piracy fall into 2 types, those that release a game on the PC that sucks and it should be incredibly obvious that it does, so when it bombs they blame it on Piracy, or the companies that release a PC game and it does very well, but they notice that people HAVE pirated it and thus whine about the non-existant money that they're hugely successful game lost over it. Either way, piracy is a completely harmless thing that in fact benefits them more often than not.Li Mu said:
Obviously, this is just more proof that piracy on the PC makes it financially unfeasible to put out a PC version of a console game and still make money with it.
It's at 6/7ths the price, which certainly isn't very much. Or are you talking about how it's being sold for half the price of your average AAA game? Which is definitely a measure of goodwill: a lot of people think that game prices are too high in this day and age.Sober Thal said:
But I reckon you think games could stand to be a little more expensive, am I right? Must be fun for you to be a gamer somewhere other than Australia.
OT: That's very good. Although I'm still on the fence about it...
