What controller? It worked fine for me on two systems - 360 gamepad.

 

[cheapchips]

Wired 360 pad. It's a common random problem apparently.

 

[AlNom]

Do you/did you have other controllers installed?

 

[cheapchips]

yes. I have a t.16000 as well. I just couldn't be bothered faffing around. Bought Shadow of Mordor instead. I've dropped bees on orcs heads. Excellent!

I liked Unreal 2 even though it got a bit slated
Also liked UXMP Unreal eXpanded Multiplayer

 

[cheapchips]

My Steam Link arrived today. It's great. Good picture on my 1080p TV with minimal lag. Definitely worth £20 in the sale if it has any appeal.

(I have a wired setup. Can't say how well it works over wi-fi)

 

[Kyyla]

Works well with ethernet here as well. Too much lag for quick games though. I use it for streaming video, my wife plays games.

tried it but I got bored quickly. Shall try to pick it up again in the future, but I have much better memories of the original Unreal and I might be biased because I didn't play it before, compared to the original Unreal which I played at launch date.

Didn't know where to put this, but this is like the wet dream of every PC user. this is a steal.

Bundlestars' All Stars 9 is $1.49 for the next 6 hours and probably worth it for Monster Slayers alone.

Their Nemesis 3 bundle has three pretty interesting tiers, especially if you want the STALKER trilogy. Only $1 for Shadowrun Returns and STALKER Clear Sky. 13 days left.

Humble's Capcom x Sega x Atlus bundle, up for another week, is quality and variety at all three tiers. Nice mix of genres and old and new titles. A 3D Sonic game in each of the first two tiers, Resident Evil 4 in tier 2, and Motorsport Manager and Devil May Cry 4 SE in tier 3.

And the Humble Monthly is $12 for Rise of the Tomb Raider (the base game, which I don't think you can buy by itself on Steam right now, not the 20th Anniversary Edition with the season pass) and 5-6 other games. 17 days left for that.

Humble Very Positive 2: https://www.humblebundle.com/very-positive-bundle-2

$1: Dungeon Souls, Neon Chrome, RIVE
BTA (~$6): Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor GotY, Oxenfree, Ultimate Chicken Horse
$10: Beat Cop, Death Road to Canada
$80: Middle-Earth: Shadow of War + t-shirt

Looks like holding out on Shadow of Mordor paid off. Bumping up to $10 is tempting for Death Road to Canada, considering the dev's iOS pricing model is to start "low" and only increase as they add features. I don't know what their PC policy is, but the previous low was $10.

Lot of quality bundles the past few days, including the Panzer Corps (6 days left) and Battle Academy (8 days left) bundles for you historical strategy gamers.

Games once came in BOXES?!

 

[green.pixel]

Old big PC game boxes the best video game boxes.

Voodoo boxes the best video card boxes.

 

[Mize]

Falcon whichever version with the big box and 3-ring mission binder was uber cool.

 

[Davros]

Falcon 4.0

 

[Cyan]

Falcon 4.0

Wowwwww and I thought Super EuroFighter 2000 was spectacular. It was, the manual was like an avionics book with more than 250 pages, but this....goes beyond

Falcon 4.0 is the prime example of going over the board in a good way. Even though I don't real manuals (real Finns check manual after the magic blue smoke that makes things go escapes to check what went wrong) just having it as a book instead of PDF makes wonders

hehe, Finns are very curious people. Maybe the second largest animal on the planet, the fin whale, is named after them.

I used to read manuals from the games I loved, like TES: Morrowind (Xbox version, which had a surprisingly vast manual for a console game) and even managed to read most of Super EuroFighter 2000's manual, but not so many others. A manual I used to love as a kid was F-Zero SNES manual when I had the console at home. My favourite part is "now, trade, technology transfer", the technology transfer is a part I used to impress my linguistics teacher...

Also with a presentation like Falcon 4.0 manual I am sure I'd end up reading the entire manual.

 

[Davros]

F22 Air Dominance Fighter / F22 Total Air War comes with a great manual it also comes with a book called adversaries and allies
The janes manuals are also great

HEhe! Just don't run your new nuclear power plant this way, okay?
