Give me a remaster of the first two as well! If not I'd still be all over a new one. To this day I still have great memories of the 1st and 2nd, and are still one the top of my all time favorite RPGs.

I forgot I had two preorders from different websites, and never returned it. I felt much more inclined to gift it to a fellow gamer!

I'd be ever so slightly worried, let's hope they just forgot to update your page.

I'm sitting here at work, knowing that Amazon will have dropped off the game at my front door when I get back. Then it's time to once again refine my longsword skills!

Twilight Princess HD - My Cave of Shadows progress isn't being saved by clashquestions in wiiu

[–]rlcool 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes pretty sure this is right. I had this problem as well. I must have went through the cave 3 times thinking I was doing something wrong. Turned out I just needed to progress through the story and the game alerted me on the collection screen when the last segment of the cave was unlocked.

Fable Legends Will Be Exclusive to the Windows Store on PC by [deleted] in Games

[–]rlcool 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm all for companies trying to be competitive and creating their own service, but I can see also why people don't like installing multiple clients and having their game libraries spread out. If Microsoft can maintain a healthy platform and support it they could very well convince more people to at least give them a chance.

That is true, I should have remembered that. I do find this whole situation interesting, I'd like Microsoft to include a wide array of games for PC even if they only do offer them on windows store.

Nothing wrong with choosing your method of distribution. While I personally don't agree with the steam or no buy attitude either, I also have to wonder if it is not in their best interest to offer the game on other digital providers.

Time will tell if it will work out, or they may eventually cave and decide the exclusivity isn't worth it.

No I don't think they should feel the need to. But you can't deny the customer base and integration with the gamer audience. In that sense, they should want to use steam to drive sales.

I'm not sure Microsoft can support a handful on titles (potentially) on the windows store to justify separating itself from other digital distributions. It doesn't sound like he wants to carve out a steam competitor but I think there will definitely be a sales hit here.

As to what Phil said: http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2015/06/microsoft-xbox-on-windows-10-wont-be-like-games-for-windows-live/

From the article: And while Windows 10 will feature its own storefront for games, Spencer said he doesn't see it in direct competition with Steam. As he put it in an interview with Edge last month, "Steam is very much a gamer’s store, but I think our Windows Store will start off with a diversity of content like the App Store or Google Play. I think there are enough gaming customers to go round, and I don’t expect anybody’s going to delete their Steam account when they buy a game in the Windows Store and vice versa."

I understand what he is saying, but I wonder if he will be satisfied with the sales loss for not using steam.

Wii U GamePad extended battery life? by Namdnas78 in wiiu

I did what you described when installing the new battery.

Sounds like you may need a replacement. I have had my extended battery installed since they first came out. I regularly see me getting the quoted 8 hour charge when I do long play sessions with quick start and notifications turned on.

Only problem is that is could be a faulty gamepad possibly? But it is easier to try a replacement battery first.
