Went through my steam games (figured it would be the easiest list for me to dig through) and picked a few titles. The list is "Bounty Suggestions"

Thanks guys, this will definitely help! It looks like you both have lots of huge RPGs to play :P (So do I)

Now it'd be great if @jwcooley would hurry up and enter his list. I know sitting around and playing games for like 3 weeks straight is time-consuming, but come on...

@Dhobo - Fez and Half-Life are awesome games. I'm not sure I'd play them again but they are definitely worth playing through for sure!

I keep starting and abandoning Fez. I figure maybe if it's a bounty I'll stick to it finally, lol

Fez is pretty short so I think it would make a pretty good idea for a bounty.

Is there a plan to make bounties retro?

What do you mean by retro?

Meaning - if you put a bounty out there that we already have as a completion....Will there be functionality in place to count that retroactively at some point?

If there isn't, no big deal as I can easily just delete and re-add under bounty. But was curious what you thought about that one.

No, I don't plan on it retroactively applying completions to new bounties. Part of the idea for bounties is to motivate users to play a game while it's active, so I would generally discourage you from deleting / re-adding (though I can't stop you...at least not without a lot of extra work that I'm not going to do :P) Also, aside from the bounty themes, I try to focus on games that have no completions or very few (I don't really count my own) since another part of the idea is to add "missing" data. Speaking of bounty themes, I have a potential idea on those as well, but I need to formulate it a little more.

All that being said, I'm noodling with some ideas on how old completions COULD be used, though not sure how the points integration would work.

Are you coming over this weekend? If so, I might run some stuff by you and see what you think. I would post it here, but right now it's mostly just a mess of ideas and I don't even know how to describe it.

I doubt I'll be there but I'm trying to get that changed.

Any older consoles or games that anyone would like to see up for bounty? I'm playing Rayman 2 and thinking about all the great old school platformers that could be added. I kinda want to play Banjo-Kazooie for the umpteenth time.

Question about bounties...

Is there a place on the profile which shows the bounties you completed? I know you can see everything you've beat before, but I'm speaking of games specifically which were featured bounties. Maybe it's not important but I am interested to recall that I beat X game because it was a bounty title.

@Marcus - I second that. I'd like to see the history of the bounties plus the ones I completed. I'd also like to know the points I received for completing said bounty.

Plus, I want the ability to delete play through entries for games that I never finished a bounty on...and didn't get to cancel before it was over.

Final Fantasy IX would be great to see! Also with it being on Steam now it's more accessible to everyone :)

Hi everyone!

So, this month and next month's theme is Horror, right? I just had some ideas for potential bounties and this seemed like the best place to post them. I don't exactly know what the criteria for being chosen for a bounty are, but the ones I came up with are these:

It may be too late for these to be Bounties for this theme this time around, but I thought I'd throw them out there nonetheless. :D

The only thing I really remember about Geist is that you can possess a bucket at some point early on. With that said, these all seem like totally great bounty candidates! I for one desperately need a reason to finally play Until Dawn.

Why must you request such great games :P Luckily, I've already finished Eternal Darkness and Until Dawn, both of which were EXCELLENT. I really want to play Geist though. I made it about halfway through a few years ago and enjoyed it quite a bit. The multiplayer is rather fun as well :D

I never got around to finishing Eternal Darkness. Got to about the midway point... it was definitely a cool concept! Maybe I'll pop it in and play soon :).

How about a Castlevania bounty to commemorate the recent 30th anniversary?
I haven't actually played any of them but I've been always meaning to!

I think that's an excellent idea, but the question is....which one(s)?

Also, spoiler alert, the original Tomb Raider is scheduled to be a bounty for its upcoming 20th anniversary...if anyone here is brave enough :)

I think we should choose either the best ones or the least played ones (or 1 game per category perhaps?). But then again, they aren't very long so we could also put bounties for a bunch of them...
Idk, as I said, I haven't played any of them so whatever game(s) you choose I'll be happy to play and dive into this legendary franchise! :D
