I'm going for Bioshock 2. Any cons?

I loved the first game but gave up on the sequel about halfway through. It degenerates into a collection-fest that has you searching every nook and cranny in order to stockpile enough health kits and ammo to take on the fucking 3 or 4 big sisters on the level. Maybe I will play through the remainder in god-mode or something.

Got Fallout 3: GOTY an hour before the Daily Deal ended .

Nothing for me today...thank God.

Tomorrow, who knows ? Here's to hoping they're going to put up Mass Effect for $5 and Mass Effect 2 for $15 :lol

Make it so, Gabe... Make it so.

 

[evlcookie]

Hell yea, Nothing today! :lol

 

[Click]

Witcher and Lara Croft bought.
Not sure about Defense Grid but I'm thinking about it.

My backlog is getting way too big and it's only going to get larger in the next week...

 

[sturmdogg]

Why so sad? It's only a 15 hour download :lol

Spoiler

Fallout 3:GOTY is 9 GB, 9 hours to finish

Are people having speed issues? I'm consistently maxing out my 15Mbit connection which is a change from previous big sales.

ME2 already is $15 bro. Daily Deal discount should bring it under $10.

 

[MehsterChief]

Hm, my tactic to only spend 50€ on the entire sale has been fucked up already.

Resident Evil 5
Lara Croft
Defense Grid

for me today. Still contemplating about Bioshock 2. Anyone buying a four pack letting me in? If so, please write a PM.

I didn't get above 300k until I switched to the opposite side of the country. ^_^

Day 1:

It's showing as $37.49 for me (outside of the US).

What's wrong with you?!!!!

First, this is a Chrismass sale, there's no place for thinking. Second, and most important: IT'S DEFENSE GOD MADE TOWER DEFENSE GRID!

 

[wormstrangler]

Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box   5.00 USD
Resident Evil 5   10.20 USD
Men of War: Gold Edition   8.75 USD
Witcher: Enhanced Edition   5.00 USD
Bioshock 2   9.99 USD

Bad day...our good day for me? I had to drop lara croft cause that was pushing me over my steam wallet.

 

[Teknoman]

I doubt I'll pick anything up today.

RE5 kind of sucks for those curious. If you do get it, use the alternate control scheme (the one that plays like Wii).

Wouldnt it be better to just use a gamepad?

 

[Smash88]

GAF I need help, I can't purchase all of these, way too much, which ones should I drop?

First people are giving away free Winterbottoms and now this. I am so behind on the slang these days.

 

[MoFuzz]

Dang, just wait for the inevitable daily deal and get a North American GAFFer to help you out then.

 

[OneEightZero]

GAF I need help, I can't purchase all of these, way too much, which ones should I drop?

Drop RE5 and Bioshock.

 

[Corran Horn]

Day 1: BF2 and Super Meat Boy
Day 2: PuzzleQuest and Witcher. Maybe Disciples III..

 

[Wallach]

RE5 and B2 would be the ones I dropped. Get B2 in a 4-pack with other GAFers if you really want it, and I'd just pass on RE5 in general until it's like $5 since it's incomplete.

 

[Snuggles]

GAF I need help, I can't purchase all of these, way too much, which ones should I drop?

What's your limit?

I say drop Resident Evil 5, it's not bad but it's a very average game. I can't thing of a single thing (maybe the graphics) that makes it a must play.

You could also live without Bioshock 2, but it's a solid game and I quite enjoyed returning to Rapture.

Peak Download Rate: 844 kb/s. Only 7 hours left to play Witcher.

Should be here in the morning. :S

lol, oh man. It is so not slang for anything. But my wife is sure going to get a laugh out of it.

 

[erpg]

Drop Bioshock 2 and Resident Evil 5.

Going by price and the negative feedback I'm seeing in this thread, RE5.

 

[DSN2K]

Witchers today and thats it for me.

 

[Smash88]

Thanks for the fast replies guys. Appreciate it.

P.S. I hope you're happy Stallion...

It's enough to take the impulse out of impulse buy for me, sadly. Probably for the best though, I'm sure my wallet will feel this sale sooner or later.

 

[Sysgen]

Drop RE5 and Bioshock.

Drop The Witcher. The combat is very subjective.

 

[kamspy]

Bad day...our good day for me? I had to drop lara croft cause that was pushing me over my steam wallet.

Bad day considering you bought Bio2 over Lara Croft.

 

[evlcookie]

Bioshock 2 is $25 in AUS. Ouch

bad day

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

Yesterday I sprung for Super Meat Boy, Prince of Persia 2008, and Fallout 3, but today I don't see anything I want I don't already have. Well, except Burnout Paradise but I kind of want that island, so I'll pass. My bank account is safe for one day!

 

[careksims]

I bought Bio1 for $5 awhile back. I'm waiting for 2 to get there.

 

[OmegaDragon]

Everyone should get Defense Grid. Great game and the price is so low you have no excuse.

 

[AwakenedCloud]

Today:
Burnout (Double Dip)
Lara Croft
Polynomial (Gift)

Wallet must survive for 13 more days!

 

[derFeef]

Nothing for me today

Drop The RE5. The coop, combat, and story is very subjective.

fixted!

 

[dark10x]

Drop RE5 and Bioshock.

I'd take RE5 over all of those.

I'd probably just drop Bioshock 2.

 

[shintoki]

You chose the wrong games.

You choose wrong. Drop RE5 and Bioshock 2. To extremely forgetful titles.

 

[stuminus3]

Wow you guys are harsh, no wonder they don't bother making DLC for us. :lol

 

[wormstrangler]

Don't make me sad guys!

I know that bio 2 and re 5 aren't loved but I've played the other games in the series so I feel obliged to continue. Besides, me and gaf don't always see eye to eye on what I like.

 

[Vitet]

Why all the praise to defense grid? I personally found it to be way too difficult. I can't save all the cores even in the first stages of the game...

Maybe I'm putting the wrong towers, but the game doesn't give even a hint of what the best placement will be...

This of course is just my opinion

 

[firehawk12]

Lara Croft just dropped to 75% off!

 

[verbatimo]

From what I've heard, 1 and 2 are awesome but a bit dated, while 3 and 4 suck ass.

I disagree about the third one. Gothic 3 with a community patch 1.74 is awesome experience.

Wouldnt it be better to just use a gamepad?

Nah. The mouse aiming is far better than thumbstick for me, and WASD works fine for movement.

 

[1-D_FTW]

Didn't realize there's a 4 pack of Bioshock 2 for 30 dollars. If anyone is organizing, I'd go in.

 

[pxleyes]

Lara Croft just dropped to 75% off!

no, only if you own a LC game.

 

[MoFuzz]

Mouse aiming makes the game piss easy tho, game seems to be better balanced for gamepads.
