MtG on iPad? Score!

Damn straight, that sounds awesome. Let me know what it's like?


Finally hit 300G in TDU2, goddamn it's a brutally hard slog for achievements. Thankfully the racing is so awesome I don't care. Landed my A1 license, won the A4-A3 and A-2 championships and hoping that after I beat the A1 championship tonight the Ibiza Cup will open. Apparently there's a glitch where you can complete all but one race, then on the last race/event of the series you come second then restart and repeat until you get bored and finish first. This duplicates the prizepool apparently so should shortcut my desire to purchase all cars and houses.

Considering revisiting DarkSouls again, started a new save with the pyromancer and am up to the Taurus Demon, once I beat him I've got the dexterity stat to shoot out the dragon's tail and from there it will be all new territory. So the pyromancy skill itself, does that refresh? If so, how? And what is Kindling by the way... I have the humanity to spare and can light fires but have not yet unhollowed and kindled.

Will do, but you've got nothing to lose as you can install it for free, then get teh premium content for an additional $10 or so. It looks good at any rate!

It's called "Magic 2013" for iPad if anyone is looking

[DarkMellie]

Cheers, will grab. So is it playable with just the free version and does it has SP or MP only?

And any ideas on if it's a direct port of the PC game or is it a pared back experience?

I bought the premium before even playing it, so no idea No idea on whether it's a direct port or not either I'm afraid I haven't played that tho.

Currently downloading Gods and Kings for Civ 5. Hoping it's as good as Beyond the Sword. XPacs are usually when 4X games hit their stride.

Currently downloading Gods and Kings for Civ 5.

Oooh! Forgot that was out today.

Better boot up my Steambox and download my MtG 2013 pre-order and G&K. Just downloaded Magic 2013 on the iPad - free is good.

Finished Magicka. Was quite fun. Always amusing finding the next op spell combo. Absolutely no balance whatsoever in that game, but that lack of balance was part of the amusement.

Because I had seen videos of it in the past and I wasn't overly fussed. Playing it right now and i'm so-so on it. I get why others would like it but so far i'm just indifferent.

Is there a reason why everyone talks gibberish? Very annoying imo.

But seriously, the brief moments I've had in Magicka I've adored but I've yet to finish it and I don't want to do it solo, my friend just wont reinstall it for some reason. Anyone keen to group up for some Magicka madness soon?

Though I loved the game.

does anyone know how to go about obtaining a refund from steam? MS Flight refuses to launch since being updated. And I feel like trying to get a refund for it just to stick it up em...

A quick google has suggested that refunds can be possible under these circumstances (at least in the UK) - I wonder who I would send the mail to... Valve or MS directly?

[Artful-dodgeR]

Raise a support ticket, fairly sure they help that way.

[DarkMellie]

If you paid for the MS Flight DLC through Steam approach them. Problem will be MS, they're notoriously difficult to get refunds from (unless steam circumvents this somehow, your chances are next to zero).

Reinstalled Fallout 3 but struggling to get into it and finally got around to finishing COD4. Got the The Witcher 2 Enhanced arriving next week hopefully.
