Getting a chance to watch a four player extravaganza of Chronicles Live.

They're trying to keep some of the swearing to a minimum. Lots of yelling and laughing, you've been warned to check your volume. Can't wait to pick this up.

I remember that game!!

So...Does the single player mode require you to be online?

 

[CAFRedblade]

I don't believe single player requires online, no. However, it's a digital download only, so you need to be online to purchase it. Looking forward to getting it on Steam myself for local playback on PC, although I'll use the Logitech gamepad I have for it.

And here is the recorded playback:

Okay, I haven't purchased it. I thought I would look at the video and see what I thought of the game-play.

All I saw was advertisements -- for 15 minutes, until I gave up. (Running an XP machine with 1/2 Gig of RAM if that makes a difference.)

So my question is: Do you have to buy the game before they let you see the gameplay from Chris & Scot?

The video starts about 13min in with the gang. I don't normally see the ads as I use ad-block on sites, (disabling on those I want to support).
Here is the Steam page with the gameplay and system details for the game: http://store.steampowered.com/app/229480/
The XP machine isn't the main issue, the 1/2 Gig of Ram is, even for XP, you should save up and put at least 2Gigs of Ram in that if the motherboard supports it.
I think 1Gig of Ram is the recommended for Windows XP alone. (the game minimum says 1Gig)
Also, you might want to know that soon Windows XP will lose any security update support, so new vulnerabilities will remain un-patched.
