That is supposed to be part of the game, difficult and clumsy controls are there to add an artificial challenge to the gameplay to make it frustrating but enjoyable when you complete your goal. You could just watch youtube videos of let's plays and reviews of games you might want to purchase to see if you would like them if you do not want to waste any more money.

Yah, it looks like a game that took a lot of inspiration from Octodad, and pissing you off with controlling the character is the main reason to play that game.

Enjoying the sale so far! 75% off for life!

Current haul:
Borderlands 2 (2nd copy)
Antichamber
Civ V: Gold
FEZ
Puzzle Quest 2
Dinner Date (lulz! friend told me to get it and it was 0.74)
HOARD
XCom
Dungeons of Dredmor
Magicka (2 copies for husband and wife time)



If you're thinking about getting Chivalry, get Chivalry. Definitely fun combat.
Games on sale you should snap buy if you don't have them: FTL, Walking Dead
Nobody spoke up when I asked about Darksiders 2, so I guess that means it's a pass.

fez ended up being too cute to resist.

toki tori 2+ will probably have the same problem once it goes on a deeper sale

All you need is a regular usb-cable.

Then you'll need MotioninJoy (which is a free program) which will take care of drivers and controller setup.

Some games, like Binding of Isaac, I could not get to work without also using Joy2Key (another free program) but Isaac is not very controller friendly...

That said - I got tired of having to juggle those two programs and doing all the setup stuff, so in the end I just bought a Logitech F710 Gamepad which works really well.

Its so the worst.

the reason isaac wouldnt work without JtK is that is the only program they were able to fit into the game that gave controller support. Isaac rebirth will have that issue fixed.

I've since tried Civ5 and I'm pretty much hooked atm. I like the strategic chess like elements of combat in Civ5 as opposed to Civ4's stack of doom warfare and overall the game just feels very deep with all of the different ways to win and succeed. The graphics aren't amazing but they're pretty damn solid. I'm not sure exactly what makes Civ4 so much better than 5 according to some people but my limited experience suggests the opposite. Might have been a different story if I had gotten into Civ4 at the time it released though, who knows. I can definitely understand when a successful series makes a few big changes that it can be a turn off for veteran players. As a newbie to the series though I'd def recommend Civ5. So ****ing addicting.
This deal is back for today and tomorrow (Amazon summer sale finale)

wow, I did not know this

Is there a limit on the number of transactions I can participate in in the Community Market?

Currently there is no limit on the number of transactions you can participate in. However, the United States Internal Revenue Service, under Section 6050W of the Internal Revenue Code, requires us to collect certain information from you if you engage in more than 200 separate sales transactions in a calendar year. In particular, if you are a U.S. citizen or resident, you will need to provide us with your name, address and Social Security Number, and if you are not a U.S. citizen or resident, you will need to provide evidence of your non-U.S. status on an online form we provide to you. We will be providing a link to these forms and a process by which you can provide the needed information if and as you approach the 200 sales limit. We may use a third-party to collect this information. You can choose not to provide this information if you wish, but you will not be able to list any items for sale in the Community Market once you meet the 200 sales threshold, and any items listed will be removed. Note that, while we are required to collect this information from you, we are not required to share this information with the IRS under Section 6050W unless you exceed $20,000 in gross sales in the Community Market within a single calendar year. For purposes of calculating the number of sales you have made in a calendar year, all of your accounts will be treated as a single account.

Hoi3 is a fantastic WW2 simulator, that has the option to mod it to perfection. Be warned tho, it's really complicated and heavy on micro, but is super deep! The pack also lacks the latest expansion ( "Their fines hour"). The expansion is ace and you should def think about getting it. Very rewarding game if / when you win.

Victoria 2 is the evolution ( in timeline terms ) of EU. Has the option to play a big part in the US Civil War ( as the expansion suggest with the name ), but the entire world is simulated, not just the US. Also possible to mod to perfection. Lacks the second and latest expansion ( "A heart of darkness"), never played the expansion tho, so can't comment.

The other games are not worth it imho.

If you like Paradox Games, I highly reccomend getting a full Crusader Kings 2 Package. It's imho the best game for a newbie as fare as accessibility / depth goes.

Yep... think I'd rather hold on to a few 30c digital items than give my full identity info away.

Same! But after going to the page for the game I had to buy the Gold edition as it was less than $1.99 more -_-

Can I still craft the summer sale badge after the summer sale is over if I buy cards in the marketplace?
