Jimothy Wongingtons on [iOS] Day of The Tentacle Remastered $1.99 @ Apple App Store

I’m a big fan of SCUMM games but to be honest I’ve never managed to finish one prior to… Last Crusade maybe? It always seemed like…

Just adding that since you did already play most of HL1 in the past, playing Black Mesa and continuing on to HL2 could make sense for you.

It’s possible the 2 was a typo and Wetsandwich meant to say Half-Life 1. HL2 works fairly well as a standalone game but it’s still…

That’s the final major area though it’s fairly long. The Xen (alien dimension) levels are somewhat divisive and also the most-changed…

I actually thought some of their Xen levels were great, although they varied. Certainly their visuals were great.

Half-Life: Alyx also has a major discount at the moment.

ShadowRFLX on Everyday Market from Woolworths: 30% Cashback ($100 Cap) (e.g. Switch 2 Mario Kart Bundle $666 after cashback) @ ShopBack

Mine has been marked as Denied after I submitted an Incorrect Cashback claim. Have tried disputing the denial and will see how that goes.

A Switch 2 Pro Controller on immediately tracked at 30% cashback, while a Switch 2 bundle tracked at 1.5% on another account. Seems highly…

Yeah I’ve tried a lot of attempts at replicating it, but they all fall short. The best I’ve found is FTL mods which basically do match…

Sven Viking commented on nbn 100/20 $65 for 12 Months + Stay until 1 Sep for $100 Bill Credit (+ 50% TopCashback AU Cashback 1st Month) @ Southern Phone
They have the same type of deal for speeds like 1000/50 at $85/mth “For the first 12 months then $105/mth” plus the $100 credit.

This is actually quite an interesting game from the demo.

wonderboy4 on [eBook] Free Agatha Christie Novels: A Caribbean Mystery & The Mysterious Affair at Styles (Original Classic Editions) @ Amazon

Thanks! I did know of it but never had access to it in the old days, and then never got around to it once I had access to it for emulators.…

Thanks. I did like original Wonderboy, just not as much. Have you seen the Adventure Island games which started as a Wonderboy port then…

bargaino on [eBook] Free Agatha Christie Novels: A Caribbean Mystery & The Mysterious Affair at Styles (Original Classic Editions) @ Amazon

Maybe that’s just because we haven’t strengthened copyright law enough yet? Tom Clancy has been dead for years and it hasn’t stopped…

I’m not against copyright in all forms, but yeah, it’s excessive.

Excellent. I’m also a Wonderboy fan, incidentally (although more from In Monsterland onwards than the original). Yeah, Project Gutenberg…

Apparently quite a few of her books are in the public domain under US copyright law of 95 years from publication. Including The Murder of…

Wasn’t expecting this to be so good. The best out of the first few I read of the series, but I haven’t finished yet (and the others are…

tommypickles on [PC, Steam] RoboCop: Rogue City Standard Edition $12.49 @ Fanatical

Any use reinstalling and/or manually updating graphics drivers?

I liked the demo (although the focus on exploring doesn’t necessarily perfectly fit with Robocop walking speeds). I’ve been trying to…

Noobist45 on [PC, Steam] RoboCop: Rogue City Standard Edition $12.49 @ Fanatical

Keep an eye out for the full Gunman Contracts game sometime this year.

The original Half-Life is of the highest-rated games of all time (as is Portal, which the song comes from), although this game is the fan…

There actually is news. You can never be sure Valve will ultimately finish the projects they’re working on internally, but source code…

While I don’t think it’s the best place to start, I do think it’s an OK place to start. The original games are often extremely cheap…

Agret on [SUBS] Frieren (2023, Anime Series) Streaming from 1 March 2025 @ Netflix

I see your point, although, based on votes, it’s also pretty popular with registered users. Ideally the category could be easily…

Actually looks like this might be good. Most games don't manage 97% positive even at this low number of (43) reviews.

Sven Viking commented on [PC, Steam] Road Redemption $4.34 @ Steam
Like Road Rash, it’s not a perfectly-balanced and highly-tuned challenge, but it is a lot of fun. In some cases its rough edges are in…

tonyjzx on [Switch] Metroid Prime Remastered (OOS), WarioWare & More $5 Each + Delivery ($0 C&C) @ EB Games

Returnal: $5 Dustborn: $29 Is this maybe some sort of supply and demand thing? Most people who want Returnal already have it, whereas…

P.S. taken now.

If someone has just the base game on Steam, pretty sure I still have a spare key for The Heat Is On. PM me a screenshot of Turmoil in your…
