There's a resolution fix (the game just stretches 1080p to whatever resolution you're using) which takes 10 seconds to install. You just need to put some files in the game folder. It's locked to 30fps. Some people are bothered by this, but I have absolutely no problem with it. There's a way to break the lock but you can't play online with that. You need windows live to play. Windows live is a complete bitch and it took me an extremely frustrating hour to set it up, but after that I have experienced zero problems with it. It just logs in when you start up. Lastly, some people say you need a controller for it. You don't. You can play 100% optimally on your keyboard (you control your camera too with keyboard). Some people like controller more though, you just have to see for yourself. Game is unplayable on keyboard. I made it thru Darksiders and Batman serie playing mouse and keyboard, but for Dark Souls you just need pad, other way it is nightmare. | ||

Happy Dark Souls Mouse/Keyboard user reporting in, no clue what your problem is. The gameplay itself is pretty damn fun and "hard". Personally I'm no big fan of how and why it is hard compared to other games that claim the same, for me it always felt like the difficulty is somewhat... artificial. I guess that's a personal thing tho. | ||

I have played nearly 100 hours using solely keyboard. You just have to get used to it and adjust to where the keys are. Anyone saying you cant play without a gamepad hasn´t even tried to play without. The question is why would you want to. There are some games that are just a lot more fun with a controller. In my opinion, if you are a gamer, you should have a controller. The fact is that a lot of games are produced for console. Some work better on keyboard + mouse, FPS or RTS are a prime example of that. But games like Batman or Darksiders, basically anything that involves that type of brawler-ish combat, just flat out work better with a controller. And a controller is not that expensive, especially when you compare it to that 50€ game you play on your 500+€ pc. Basically, i use the type of input that i think works best with the game. I hate to fight the interface to play a game. It is stupid to play an FPS with a controller, but it is similarly stupid to play a brawler-style game with mouse and keyboard, because that is simply the inferior method of controlling that game. | ||

I do have a ps3 controller. The problem is motioninjoy is a really buggy program and even crashes my computer sometimes. I never said you have to play with keyboard. It´s everybody´s own preference on what they want to use. It´s just that alot of people immediately doom the pc controls as ´impossible to play with´ just because they couldn´t be bothered to spend more than 5 minutes with it. The pc controls are perfectly fine though, just wanted to put that out there. | ||

There is nothing like that in the "The Walking Dead" description. So it's 12.50€ for all 5 Episodes? | ||

Now some Games like Borderlands 2 say: Borderlands 2: xx €; Season Pass: xx €. There is nothing like that in the "The Walking Dead" description. So it's 12.50€ for all 5 Episodes? Yes, 12.50 for all 5 episodes that have been released so far. They are considered to be the first season. There will be more episodes in the future (probably mid-late next year) which are not included. That borderlands "season pass" doesn't make any sense. It's just a package that includes 4 DLCs for the game. | ||

Buy one. The game is amazing. Chivalry is also amazingly fun with friends, the combat system is great. | ||

I have the x360 version but I don't have xbox live or a way to even connect to it, but if I buy on steam I can play on the internet, right? I have a gtx 550 ti, I'm pretty sure that's good enough to run it, correct? | ||
