I remember impressions and graphics being mediocre, and the multiplayer being dead -- is all that accurate?
I believe you're missing stupid story and very short campaign.
Sadly, I'm mildly intrigued for 5 dollars. 5 dollars is the devil's price point. It's how Gabe gets you.

Homefront for 5 bones. Do people still play this? Multiplayer is dead?

Activision is jumping onto the Digital Deluxe bandwagon. There is a new entry for a Digital Deluxe version of Black Ops 2. It'll probably be either $69.99 or $79.99.

PSN and Steam will get a copy of World at War. I think they are also throwing in the OST and a Nuketown Zombie map. It's going to be $80, which is too damn much.
The Steam AU price is going to be above USD$100.
I still think it was an ok game.

lol....
I spent way too much money on the summer sale... I can't afford any games now like Dark Soul's and GW's 2... I'm not even playing the summer sale games, this is crazy.

It just means Steam is having a problem with new releases. They Bleed Pixels had no price for about 20 minutes, and now they just reset the timer.

Ehh didn't really like Homefront during its free day.
If Metro comes in dd again, go for it though!

Oh, it's no big deal at all. But thank you for offering! It's cool you're on here and I'm glad Home is coming to Steam. Definitely deserves more attention.
Bought. I've been patiently waiting for this to hit $5. Can't be that bad for the price, right....

How short a campaign we talking about here for forefront?
The single-player campaign is insultingly bad. The gameplay is standard CoD whack-a-mole stuff, but the story actually pissed me off. Mass graves, children shot in front of their children...all of it handled in the most blatantly manipulative and juvenile way possible.
Fuck that game.
Like 4 hours. By the end, that 4 hours felt like 20. Game is fucking *TERRIBLE*. There isn't a single redeeming thing about it.
Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.

So guys I have 50 in my steam wallet atm. Should I buy something or should I keep it for the games that come out in the fall?

Dishonored.
Test your will and save it for Half-Life 3.
Edit: Get out of my head, Mr. Rebel. Dishonored was going to be my serious answer!
Dark Souls is only $40 and can't possibly get enough love.

Penny Arcade's OtRSPoD 3 is 3 bucks all week. The CSTW & BoD pack is 50% off. http://store.steampowered.com/news/8752/
I really enjoyed all 3 games. This is a great deal.
If you still want it, GMG has it for 36 with DERHE-RRDER-RINGE

As much as I want Dishonored, the $60 pricetag without even so much as a 10% pre-order discount has turned me off it. I don't have the budget for $60 games when I'm getting fantastic games release day for $35-$40 (Sleeping dogs, Borderlands 2) and still have a nice backlog I haven't touched. If it was even $50 I'd buy it. But for now it gets to wait until the first sale.
Not bothered by anything else you said, but the bolded is enough to turn me away. Tsk, tsk, Gabe. Not this time. Try again in two months.

Homefront:
The
bit gets me every fucking time. It stings too much for me to say I think it's a good moment but it certainly cemented the game in my mind for all eternity.
Gameplay is good imho, campaign is ok, if a bit short and it just abruptly ends without real closure. Graphics are decent. Definitely worth that price.
edit: That spoiler'd bit made me angry enough at the enemies to really enjoy killing them the whole game, so I guess it worked. I could see how some people would immediately transfer their distaste past the enemies right to the developers though.

Homefront is tempting at 5$ but I would only be buying it out of morbid curiosity, to rubber neck at a train wreck.
Hahaha, exactly my reaction to that post. I could play Homefront for $5... What's the harm?
Oooh.. thanks for that. The only reason I might not is because I have a good chunk of money tied up in steam wallet thanks to trading in a bunch of stuff to Gamestop. I may pull the trigger at $48 despite that though.

Does this come with that sniper challenge map thingy?

Not sure if this is the right thread or not, but I'm in a rush.
Walking Dead - is the £12.95 price for ALL episodes? The description mentions a Season Pass, but I don't see any other way to pay, like per episode.
Secondly, I've no idea if my laptop can run it well. Can the graphics be tweaked?
