Speaking of DOOM, another 12GB patch.

70gb download, strawberry floating ridiculous

Most of that is multiplayer which you'll probably never use.

And Snapmap. Which is interesting and has some fun content out there, but it was all a bit of a mess trying to sort through it when it first came out. Need to see what they actually managed to do with it.

But the Single Player is the main draw and it's absolutely excellent.

Snapmap is great, have good fun with that. Shame you can't have more than 4 people on it, would've been ace to have a load of us play some deathmatch on it.

The PS4 pad support went live yesterday on Steam, seemed okay on a brief test. Does anyone know if the touchpad (I know you can map the actual button press) and the movement parts are supported?

Nice, I'll give that a quick test on something tonight.

What would you say is the best vr game you've played so far then? You seem to be taking up a fair few games!

Sorry for the delay, real life getting in the way!

So far I would say Arizona Sunshine has been my biggest wow moment so far! Having said that, the dungeon crawler "Vanishing Realms" has been a very close second. It's odd becuase something that is onscreen looks fairly tame, but when you are in VR, the baddies tower above you and are quite intimidating. My Housemate who is the archetypal non gamer, eventually had a go after I badgered her, and she was blown away by it all.

Unfortunately I have not had much time this week to play but will give it a proper go over the weekend.

One thing I will say though...VR Porn... really is something else!

Like...really really something else entirely. If you were rubbish with the ladies I could honestly see this being a semi decent replacement.

Well, I guess that fills in that 3 minute gap between your posts.

I Am Weapon with DLC is currently £1.40 from Steam (normally £12+). Taking a punt on this. Interestingly this is the first game I've actually bought directly from the Steam store (rather than buying a Steam code elsewhere). Based on current Steam purchases, I should have passed the £5 mark giving me full membership around the end of 2017.

Full sale should start on Thursday, so I am sure you can spend £5 there. Oh you probably wont get sale cards, as you are too low level, those are free money.

Just debating what my 600th game should be, kinda want to get Guilty Gear Xrd -Revelator, but to get all the charcters is £40 odd quid, and I paid £20 for Sign last year, and didnt play that much, on top of that SFV season 2 starts this week, so virtually no chance I will play a different fighter to that. What I am saying is I need a suitable game for 600

How do you get "sale cards" and what are they for?

[Lagamorph]

They're for selling to gullible idiots who'll buy jpegs for real money.

They usually have some gimmick for getting them, "explore" your discovery queue, buy a game, play a mini game, stuff like that. Theyre usually not that hard to get and you can get a few pennies for each of them, but by sale end you can have enough to get yourself a new game. Even if you dont the cash stays in your account and you can just put it towards something you want in the future.

But only if you use the mobile authenticator app, otherwise you have to wait 15 days for any items you put up for sale to actually appear on the marketplace - usually meaning they don't sell as the average price has dropped during the wait.

Couldn't you run something like Bluestacks to emulate an android device or does it have to have a phone number too?

The thing is you have to authenticate each and every listing individually. Every single time.

I have never understood why people buy these things. But I'm not going to question it.

It's pretty awesome, all things considered.

Steam is an Operant conditioning chamber and Steam profile levels/badges are the tokens they keep hitting the lever to get. Also valve get a cut of every card and item sale so they don't have to make games anymore to rake it in all day erry day.

You can just queue up a bunch and authenticate them all at once.

[That's not a growth]

You have to be strawberry floating kidding me. So much wasted time. Fuuuuuuuuck.
