All the fun just not all the over the top silly stuff. So maybe Ill like this. I anted to like the series. The story and such seem cool.

I was fairly "meh" on 4, but 3 was brilliant. Where else do you get Burt Reynolds as the mayor and zombies! I keep thinking about a replay just for those parts.

I was the same way. How many games let you play as a toilet?

It was the wackiness and absurdity that set it apart.

Having Roddy Piper show up to deliver a back alley beat down to Keith David will forever remain one of my Top 5 memories in PC gaming. I'll forever love the series for that alone.

Wait they had that from the movie in there? Lol.

The name made it look like Vampire Survivors. Then I watched the first attached video and it's a pretty bad looking clone. For $3 get the real thing. I just checked the Steam page and there are now 4 DLC. It's about $9 for me to upgrade. That's a bit steep for me but maybe I need to go find the thread and see what other people thought. I easily got $5 out of it, right when it came out on Steam.

How about Guardians of the Galaxy?

Supposed to be a great game..and I love GotG. Guess it was the big ending to their holiday giveaways as its showing the next game and its a cheap one again.

Just be aware that it's based on the original comics - not the films. Expect differences.

I'm pretty sure Daehawk has only seen youtube clips.

I have only watched the movies and nothing in the game really threw me off, but I am also pretty easy going.

But I will say once I wrapped my brain around the changes I still enjoyed it enough to finish it. Just be aware it's its own thing. For free? Yeah, no brainer. I paid $30 and was still satisfied.

Finished the main quest yesterday after about 11 hours of gameplay. The save game said I only completed 28% of the game. I enjoyed this prequel and origin story for The Saints.

Wow, the Love preview doesn't even look 8 bit. It looks like someone took the original Jumpman and tried to port a playable version to the Atari 2600, Odyssey 2, or Intellivision is you're generous.

it's definitely ZX Spectrum aesthetics

Wow, a bitterly difficult platformer with Atari 2600 graphics.

The appeal is low. No, they'd have to include blackjack and hookers to get the appeal up to low.

Astro Duel II

(i wanted to write that as Amon Düül II)

current title looks like it plays a lot like a souped-up Canabalt, if you remember that one

Astro Duel II looks totally like the kind of game i would like (and a bit like an updated Major Havoc)

Ooh, nice, Orcs Must Die! 3 is on my wishlist. They are really solid wave defence games.

INDUSTRIA is a pretty neat looking FPS, but i have heard mixed reports of its performance on Steam Deck. going to try it anyways
