I think i saw this for $15 on cdkeys.com last night before it even had a price. Wasnt sure how much it woild actually cost. Considering buying it when i get home, but i might wait for steam winter sale.

There also might be a discount for this in the S-E Holiday Surprise Box, I think they had one for XIII-2 or something last time.

Well it's not all sunshine and roses. The game requires Steam Cloud activated to startup, and won't even launch without an internet connection/Steam in offline mode.

So yay for a single player game requiring internet to play.

Yeah actually fairly common now but not to the extent of failing to load without it up. (mostly an antipiracy measure.) The new Just Cause had some issues but it still allowed you to run it in "offline mode."

I ended up refunding it. The always online requirement is incredibly stupid even if it's not likely to affect me, and the game has mad performance issues in towns (and it's not a hardware thing, it's just the engine being shit).

Backed up the files on an external in case they fix stuff in the future, but the initial good impressions of the port got shit on pretty quickly, though luckily before the 2 hour refund limit was up.

Dunno if this was known info. Steam posted an update.

Support for resolution up to 4k standard (1215p to 2160p).
Ability to boot the game while offline.

Still never playing this, or its predecessor. At least SE has promising new stuff around the corner. Go glitz machine go.
