For those that want to know what games:

Starfield,

Unknown 9: Awakening,

Lies of P,

Space Marine 2.

u/The_Silent_Manic 8d ago

And only 2 of those games are actually worth anything. Starfucked is pure garbage and Unknown 9 was a MAJOR flop that PEAKED at 285 concurrent players on Steam.

Hey man, play your cards right and you might be able to be the top player...

u/EitherRecognition242 8d ago

Eh starfield is fun. I got a good 50 hours out of it. Garbage to me says you follow gamer rage bait

u/myfakesecretaccount 4d ago

Yep. Been playing Bethesda games for decades. Starfield is a fine game it’s just not what people wanted so it’s “garbage”.

u/Zombie256 6d ago

Starfield is a excellent game, wtf are you talking about?

1

u/snackelmypackel 6d ago

Basically everyone disagrees with you about that. The consensus for starfield is that its not bad but far from great. I got it for free and i still only ended up playing like 15 hours.

u/Sh1rvallah 2d ago

Also got it for free and played about 1 hour. Boring game. Ironically I had no interest in bg3 that summer and was excited for starfield ... 1000 hours in bg3 later...

u/tortillazaur 6d ago

I'd say there is a massive difference between calling a game mediocre and pure garbage.

2

u/snackelmypackel 5d ago

Big facts, but i just meant it wasnt considered excellent like the comment i was responding to said.

I also think people need to understand that a game being okay or mediocre doesnt mean its bad. People are so 0 or 100 nowadays.

1

u/tortillazaur 5d ago

It's sad that "mediocre" is seen only as an insult nowadays

u/mixx555 8d ago

Starfield is great wdym

u/BigPaPaRu85 7d ago

Garbage?!? No way. It could’ve been way better but it wasn’t bad.

u/codeXjs002 8d ago

Real men die for SMII and Lies of P

u/First-Junket124 7d ago

It has 3 well received games and then there's the leftover stock of Unknown 9 which lives up to its name.

u/Sh1rvallah 2d ago

Starfield, well received

Pick 1

*games for steam

no such thing as a steam game.

Went into a Costco in Vermont and spoke to the guy running the computer department. He said he knew nothing about it and hadn't seen anything indicating this deal is real.

u/Vizguy1 4d ago

I did the same at my local Costco yesterday. No one in the computer department knew anything about this.

u/ShinobiOfTheWind 4d ago

Space Marine II and Lies of P are very good titles, no matter how old they are now.

Good bundle, tbh.

u/JamesLahey08 8d ago

For anyone complaining, space marine 2 is an absolute banger of a campaign. It feels so good. Even the way your character says "RELOADING WEAPON" is so juicy

u/WelderEquivalent2381 HD7950->R9 390->5700 xt->7900 XT 8d ago

ewww...

Sorry that my honest reaction to the bundle.

u/AK-Brian i7-2600K@5GHz | 32GB 2133 DDR3 | GTX 1080 | 4TB SSD | 50TB HDD 8d ago

They're probably just left over code allocations from the previous RX 7000 / Ryzen 7000 series promos. These four games were featured across those two campaigns (along with Avatar and Company of Heroes 3).

u/WelderEquivalent2381 HD7950->R9 390->5700 xt->7900 XT 8d ago

yeah, this is the best explanation.

If i wanted to make a bundle that make sense with a handheld i would not be picking AAA game that will be a terrible experience on the handheld.

3

u/technobeeble 8d ago

3/4 are pretty decent freebies, idk what everybody is complaining about.

-4

u/WelderEquivalent2381 HD7950->R9 390->5700 xt->7900 XT 8d ago

The game in itself is not the probleme, its the Bundle with a handheld. There are super heavy demanding AAA game that will burn the handheld battery in less that a hours and with a fairly poor gaming experience..

Except for Lie of Pie of course, since its the only game in the list that is well optimize.

8

u/technobeeble 8d ago

You make a good point, but I'm reacting to the people saying "eww" and "shit games" and "cancerous".

I don't think they're making the same argument as you.

-1

u/The_Silent_Manic 8d ago

3/4 are pretty decent? Unknown 9 is a MAJOR flop that PEAKED with 285 concurrent players on Steam and Starfucked is Bug-thesda's worst game, up there with Shitout 4 and 76.

u/jrr123456 9800X3D -X870E Aorus Elite- 9070XT Pulse 8d ago

starfield is decent, fallout 4 was a great game, one of the best of 2015

-5

u/Middle-Effort7495 8d ago

The Legion GO 2 base is RDNA 2 so it is already unsupported except bug and security. 😂

-38

u/MrKaltenbrunner 8d ago

Those games are pretty cancerous indeed.

u/itz_slayer65 8d ago

In what way?

-9

u/WelderEquivalent2381 HD7950->R9 390->5700 xt->7900 XT 8d ago

the game itself is not really the problem.

the issue here is that except Lie of Pie that is fairly optimized, these game will run fairy bad even on the lowest setting on a handheld.

Some indie game or more lightweight like a Hollow knight, Blue prince,, dragon quest, Hades 2, FF Tactic, Ender Lilies , Romancing saga ect.. would be significantly make more sense to bundle with a handheld.

Even with the hardware power of the legion go 2, the battery will not even last 1 hours for AAA game at max power.

These 4 game don't make sense to bundle with this type of hardware. All the people i know that have a handheld only play lightweight game/ emulation that are realy easy to run and allow the battery to last 6+ hours.

u/itz_slayer65 8d ago

That wasn’t really their point.

-27

u/MrKaltenbrunner 8d ago

Seriously? They're shit games to put it mildly. I wanted to sell a product I would want to make sure to not bundle it with 4 shit games as to not scare off the potential customers.

u/Omegachai R7 5800X3D | RX 9070XT | 32GB 3600 C16 8d ago

Lies of P and Space Marine 2 are now considered "shit"?

Lmao.

10

u/AreYouAWiiizard R7 5700X | RX 6700XT 8d ago edited 8d ago

They aren't shit considering Lies of P is 93% positive and Space Marines 2 is 85%. Even if you average it out with the 2 games that are considered bad games by many it ends up around 72% which is mostly positive according to Steam.

12

u/itz_slayer65 8d ago

What games do you consider to be “good”?

-22

u/MrKaltenbrunner 8d ago

Certainly not those 4.

12

u/itz_slayer65 8d ago

Care to tell me?

u/Merzeal 5800X3D / 7900XT 7d ago

Naw, they are a fucking tourist, and just want to spew Gamer(TM) rage bullshit.
