JudasIscariot: RE: Dustforce, when did you play it last? Was it before the DX upgrade or after? Just curious :)

mindblast: After. Few weeks ago. I didn't bother in trying it with controller, maybe it would have worked a little better, but with keyboard it felt awful to me.
Yeah, it's one of those games where a controller works better, unfortunately.

Borrowing from nmorello11's thread "You can only save 10 games from your total library", how about a top 10 or 5 games to play first from your backlog?

Hmmm, for me:
(In no particular order)

1. Pillars of Eternity
2. Divinity: Original Sin
3. Prison Architect
4. The Yawhg
5. Pikmin 2

Alright, this sounds like a fun idea. I have only completed 16.98% of my library, unbundling included. Something needs to be done about this! Here are some of my backlogged games, pick one, and I shall play it.

Alone In The Dark
Commandos
Deponia
Empire Earth
Jagged Alliance
Sanitarium
Omicron: The Nomad Soul
Star Wars JK DF2: Mysteries Of The Sith
Rune
Postal
Prince of Persia: Warrior Within

Messi_is_Messiah: I would like to join this club!

I need someone to select a game from the gog catalog for me to play. My only request is that it was released before the year 2004. (I'm itching to play an older game)

I guess I'm hoping someone will choose a game that they've played in the past that they really liked, but there are no real rules for me besides the pre 2004 requirement. Thanks in advance!
You guys need to sort it out between each other. Messi_is_Messiah assign one game to Random_Coffee and other way around. :D

Update:
PaterAlf - TBD next week
Lionel212008 - Disciples 1 + 2
mindblast - Psychonauts
Hunter65536 - Torchlight 2
Tannath - Sam & Max Hit the Road
Messi_is_Messiah - TBD
Random_Coffee - TBD

In the meantime, i was pretty busy with work, so didn't played too much, but Psychonauts seems like a challenge. I've barely managed to pass the first boss. Had some compatibility issues, got around 3-4 crashes, but it's ok, as saving system it's pretty well done.
I must say, i was pretty "psyched" about Psychonauts, as it's such an hyped title. But i find it kinda hard to see behind the control/camera problems. Probably the world it's more appreciated than the actual gameplay.

Gnostic: Play 3, then 1 then 2.

Save the best for the last

Tallima: I used to do that but now that I've lived half my life, I've decided to only play the best, the unique and the unusual.

My backlog was created out of two things: attempting to buy play time and getting bundles and not trading away the games I won't play. I quit doing those and now I'm very satisfied.

Don't feel like you have to beat a game. Just enjoy it. If it's not worth finishing for you, it might just not be worth finishing. The journey is usually better than the end. But man, it is a good feeling when you get to the end.
I'll be starting with disciples. Thanks gentlemen.

Neat idea.

If you gents don't mind a lady joining in I'll get back to you as soon as I finish some games.

Yes, that happened to me too.

I don't remember the camera being much of an issue, but yes controls are one of the weakest parts of the game. For me bad controls are usually a deal breaker, but in this case I persisted because I really liked the gameplay and the world, and I don't regret it.

We Norwegians are a stubborn people. We beat Commandos, even if it takes us over a decade.

Edit: But not the expansion pack, because fuck that shit.

There is actually only one mission I would call impossible, but it's REALLY impossible. XD One of my favorite games ever though so good luck and have fun. :D

Challenge accepted. I've finished Battletoads, how hard could this be? :P
Posted November 27, 2015
I tried to complete Commandos without saving inside the levels several years ago. Think I never got further than level three or four.
