    I noticed that Undertale is on sale in the Steam store at the moment. What are the chances of it being added to the second tier next week?

    Who knows but if you buy it now you can do a refund on it for up to 14 days as long as you haven't played it for more than 2 hours.

    I would highly doubt it

    Best Humble Bundle in months, in my opinion. The "Overwhelmingly Positive" bundle is full of games that have the highest user ratings on Steam. This one is a no-brainer, guys...

    It seems like the "absolute worst and cheapest games we can find that somehow have the overwhelmingly positive rating" bundle to me.

    Looks kind of muck to me actually. No where near the best humble bundle.

    only 2 games in the entire list that I've heard of. Very poor.

    Pony Island is probably the most 'famous', and even that I thought was a load of pseudo-intelligent muck. I really don't know why people thought it was so mind-bending and meta or whatever it was they described it as.

    Deadbolt looks interesting though.

    Are you being a little overwhelmingly positive about this bundle? ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 55,514 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Maybe. Shantae, N++ and Deadbolt were on my wishlist. DOTT is a classic and will always be a classic.
    Pony Island sounds like a game I'd really like. I hadn't heard of the others.

    Not much I can do if some of you haven't heard of these games. Maybe look beyond the CODs, Witchers and Battlefields and broaden your horizons? :pac::p

    Mr E's recommendation in addition to the meltdowns on Reddit and HUKD was enough for me! :)

    DOTT hasn't aged well in my opinion, the day of point and click is long in the past. N++ was a free game 10 years ago and the rest look meh.

    Nothing I can do if I don't care about them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 55,514 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    DOTT is a HD remaster and is as funny now as it was in 1993 (IMHO etc.) - it has fully updated controls, it's full screen (no inventory/command menu taking up half the screen) and the graphics look great.

    N++ is a new version of the game that came out last August. 2000+ levels so it has a massive amount of content.

    Played through a bit of DOTT, but didn't think much of it. I don't get why people get so excited about re releases of games they already own and have finished.

    Nostalgia.

    May have been mentioned already Dirt Showdown is free on Humble Store. I've no idea if it's a good game or not.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭Jerichoholic


    It's ok, just turn off the announcer. He's the cringiest dickhead of all time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,935 ✭✭✭eyerer


    I played a little bit of Showdown when it came out, think Ill give it another go. Thanks

    Homeworld is one of the best RTS games of all time and this is the new remastered version, even just play it for the story alone

    Tier 1 alone is worth it. Victor Vran is a great game....

    Just got Neverwinter Nights 2 Complete for €4.69 with a GOG code that was sent to me. Not sure if it's sent to everyone, but that's a pretty nice deal.

    A great, great campaign and you get both games with greatly improved visuals and a few design improvements as well as the original versions packaged in (and made compatible with modern OS, not just the files tossed in). It would be great if they threw Homeworld: Cataclism in but it's still a great deal.

    Source for cata was lost so it couldn't be rereleased.

    Shame DoK was a letdown for the franchise, new one might be more on the mark.

    A couple of discounts with the latest Argos catalogue. I assume they're Steam keys in the box.

    Fallout 4 - €17
    DOOM - €18


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,438 ✭✭✭✭Skerries


    yeah the version of FO4 with book and soundtrack on Amazon for £12 was a great deal

    Reaident Evil 7 is currently €28.49 on CD keys, I'm at work at the moment so can't post a link, but it's easily found on the website. Really enjoyed the demo, hope the full game lives up to it!

    just after buying it for above price on a similar website. Loved the demo, can't wait to play the full game. Not buying the DLC till later when I know if it's worth getting or not.
