Strange. I remember gifting The Movies to a friend on Steam, along with its expansion, and I happen to own Stubbs the Zombie on steam, myself. Were both these games removed from the Steam Store at some point or something?

A lot of my favourites aren't big in the competitive scene, but I don't really play in the competitive scene so that's ok by me. I like pokemon for what they are, not for how many wins they'll get me :p Gen 1: Alakazam. It takes a lot of effort to try to catch a damned Abra, unless you're...

Personally I was always under the impression that the Overmind always was an evil dick and always will be an evil dick, it's just that now we learn that he was an evil dick with a master, and he wanted to be freed so that he could be an evil dick with no master.

Anarchist Gaige from Borderlands 2 vs my WoW Warlock. Presuming Gaige has max stacks of Anarchist it could honestly go either way, depending on RNG. Just about every shot will miss due to the drastically decreased accuracy, but if even a single shot were to hit... Deathtrap is irrelevant because...

I thought Advent Rising was a pretty good game. It was supposed to be a trilogy iirc, but it ended after just one game. A damn shame. It started off as a generic third person shooter, but then it turned into essentially Jedi Knight with great guns, great special powers, and pretty strong melee...

I'm going to use the obvious choice: The Minions from the Overlord series. The Browns are surprisingly durable for their size, and are capable of being powerful front line fighters with a knack for being deadly with ANY kind of scavenged weapon or armour. They can even kill mighty enemies...

Heh... there's an old alliance quest in WoW, way back before Cata, in which you had to escort Corporal Keeshan out of captivity from the Blackrock Orcs in a cave in Redridge Mountains. Originally this was quite a difficult quest, as the orcs in that cave were both very numerous and very strong...

It's not that bad in this game. While I do use the machine gun, carbine and sniper rifle more than other weapons, that's just my style. I've still been forced to use other weapons due to a lack of ammo, or simply put because there's a powerful weapon that isn't necessary but still useful. The...

I like it. There's always a replacement weapon or ammo to collect, there are Vigors to use, not to mention you can be highly mobile and use the environment to your advantage (making proper use of skyrails for example), and there is never a time when your weapon is 100% useless for the situation...

Well, Torchlight had that bonus 100 floors dungeon after you finished the main game. iirc they got progressively harder as you went, but I'm not sure how hard they actually got as I didn't really bother too much with it.

IMO, all of the C&C games, except for C&C4, are well worth it, especially for the current Steam sale prices. I have to agree with this. Red Alert 3 was a pretty good game, personally I loved it but I can see how it's not everyone's type of game. Coop was probably the gimmick feature of that...

Ok, I wasn't going to respond to this thread, but your example reminded me of a similar situation. I was Cho'gath, and I was chasing after the enemy Ashe, who was low healthed. She couldn't risk shooting me without allowing me to hit her with a Rupture or a Feral Scream, but I had other...

I'll add that achievements should be an addition to the game, not an afterthought. As people have said there's too many cases where developers just make their game then slap on some "Kill this boss" or "Complete this level" achievements because they feel obligated to do so. It's ok to have SOME...

I love achievements, BUT... I love them more when they are confined into the one game. Steam, Champions Online, even World of Warcraft, they all do this well, though admittedly there is a website that ranks how many achievements from various games people have, so I guess that's verging on GfWL...
