2008-08 Tuesday 26, Penumbra: Requiem - jens - 08-26-2008 As the release of Penumbra: Requiem for Windows is very close we have had the time to put up the website for the game. The site can be found at http://www.PenumbraRequiem.com. Also, Linux and Mac users should not feel left behind! Versions for these system are in the works and will be available quite soon. We would also take the opportunity to give our thoughts on the expansion and this text from the site sums it up pretty neatly:
We have put a lot of work into Requiem and we believe it is the most polished of all of the Penumbra releases. The multitude of puzzles with multiple solutions is something that we are very proud of and we have gone to great length to ensure smooth gameplay. We really hope that you will enjoy this expansion and have good time with it. Good night all, we'll return tomorrow with more content and goodies!

Took you guys long enough to have a dedicated topic for this. Shame how I have school and work; same for thursday! Arg, can't a penumbra fan play in peace? RE: 2008-08 Tuesday 26, Penumbra: Requiem - Penumbra - 08-27-2008 lol, it's a good thing I'm completly broke and have no job! Now I'm going to have to borrow some money from a friend or something.

I'll buy the Linux version the same day it's available! stoked! -edfardos RE: 2008-08 Tuesday 26, Penumbra: Requiem - Im_Sexy - 08-27-2008 Alright its today!!! Damn i saw the Demo button and clicked like a hungry child but its the expansion so theres no demo RE: 2008-08 Tuesday 26, Penumbra: Requiem - WindexGlow - 08-27-2008 After dealing with GamersGate Download service for the last 40 minutes, I can say I'm displeased and requirem-less "Check your firewall and download *naughty*" I disabled my firewall mate and got no anti-virus turned on. The *naughty* does it want me to do now, install viruses so it knows I have no firewall? 10:45 Still no luck. I checked their forums and they're filled with similar complaints for varying games; I will try their alternate downloaded once I find out How To *naughty* Uninstall Their Program http://www.gamersgate.com/downloader/Downloader.msi 10:52 Is the program still a beta? Jesus christ, it has no offline help. It's "help" tab only tells you the version and name of the program (gamers gate that is) Continuing search of a *naughty* uninstall. 10:57 Found an uninstall; in the link I gave above. The main download offers zero .exe for uninstallation. At all. No start-menu uninstallation, no in program uninstaller. Nothing. Every single commercial penumbra release has been plagued by problems. Jesus Christ when will it end. 11:01 A *naughty* surprise in this *naughty* orgasm(naughty?) of GamersGate. It still doesn't work, surprise surprise. GamersGate passed the point long ago in being effectuate or time-saving. Torrents (even with their slow download speed) would be more effective and time saving if it downloaded the game at 20kbs. I've purchased the game legally at gamers gate, I should be able to download the game legally. What it feels like right now is they're trying to screw me out of money that I worked for; no download program (steam, impulse, stardock central) has ever given me a bit of trouble in the slightest doubt. Their staff seems to do nothing despite the large amount of complaints. 11:57 After several uninstalls of gamersgate (with registry removels checkin afterwards) and trying both of the installers, I have yet to download the game. Great program GamersGate; shows potential but horrid customer support. RE: 2008-08 Tuesday 26, Penumbra: Requiem - jens - 08-27-2008 Sorry to hear that! Can't you please edit the post a bit and remove the profound swearing so I don't have to? RE: 2008-08 Tuesday 26, Penumbra: Requiem - WindexGlow - 08-27-2008 Fine fine. It isn't very fun dealing with gamers gate though; the post won't be the same without the swear words. Done. Is orgasm a naughty word? |
