    I've been playing the Gotham City Impostors Beta on PS3. Fumigation mode is pretty fun, but I won't be buying the full game.

    Or...if you buy Recettear anywhere else, it is DRM free. Per the Localization company site.

    (Yes, I've actually bought it twice because of this. DRM-free = win.)

    I got Cryostasis and Singularity on sale on Steam today. It should be a scary Christmas holiday.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    Because you can put it on any number of machines, use it anywhere or any time and perhaps most importantly, copies could be played simultaneously?

    Steam is acceptable DRM, but it is still DRM. The fact that Recettear on steam has DRM while the other two stores offer it without any makes steam the inferior version.

    As i said so many times on irc, you CAN put in on any number of machines, you just need to set steam to offline mode... yet you always forget that.

    what makes you think you can't install the game on any number of machines

    and if you want to it to be played simultaneously, you might as well tell your friends to pirate it.
    its unimportant anyway, since there is no multiplayer you could play over hamachi or something like that

    I love how people rationalize the steam platform's weaknesses as somehow being benefits, or completely inconsequential. I simply cannot fathom that people extol the virtues of vendor lock-in.

    DRM is DRM. Period. The choice is there, other stores offer a better than steam's. Recettear doesn't even have achievements, so there's really no advantage to getting the steam version over the other stores.

    So the alternative to steam must be piracy, even when there are clear legal alternatives? Nice whitewashing.

    Oh, and roommates, family members, or significant others play games too. You know, people in the same household?

    I won't say anything on this subject anymore - we will run in circles again. Still - complaining about DRM that you can literally turn off...

    Ryll's point is:

    -You have one version that has DRM, but you can turn it off
    -You have one version that doesn't have DRM period.

    Even if one of them has a work-around, the version that doesn't even need it is superior by default. Until pricing factors in anyway.

    Note that while I agree and can see one of them as superior, I don't necessarily view the other as being unacceptable.

    Bought Limbo the other day for $2.50, and Amnesia yesterday for $5.

    Should I get Fable III?

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Finally Steam Christmas deals are out! I was waiting for Total War Shogun 2 deals and I was surprised to see so many other publisher catalogs available for sale. I bought the Rise of the samurai DLC today. I can't decide what to buy next.

    Thanks shinta|hikari for the sig.

    Sure! But I never played any shogun 2 multiplayer before because I had a shitty connection so I totally avoided the online play. But I shall try it now, what is your steam account? Mine is yagumo.

    Thanks shinta|hikari for the sig.

    I'm currently playing MotorStorm Apocalypse on PS3, which I just picked up for $4.99 at Best Buy. It was a first shipment copy that came with the Premiere Pack. I also picked up WWE '12 for $26.74.

    Would you compare it to classic games like Road Rash or Burnout? I've been looking for a game like those to play.
