This is the kind of stuff you can create and play on.
Game is an absolute steal for £5, endless content and super fun. I've played it online since the first version back in 2004 or something.

BUY IT. That really is all you should need with a game like this. Or just wait for Teknopathetic to arrive.

I think if I was forced to pay ten dollars just to watch that video again, I would probably do it.
Looks like I'm buying Trackmania.

I'll think about it.... haven't been into a racing game since Burnout Paradise.
It's not a sandbox racer (it's not made for off-roading/exploring), it's a competitive/time trial racer. It's SUPER arcadey, and I highly recommend it. The $10 is worth it in my opinion for all the content. Bear in mind that though you can buy some stuff with the crazy ingame currency, or maybe realworld currency, there is also apparently a good bit of free content.Jade Ryan said:
So if you want to make your own maps, or drive around in the Batmobile, you can probably find it somewhere.
I think there is a career mode in the sense that you do progressively more complicated challenges, trying to gold star them etc., but it's just beating the best time. You -may- race against other cars but it's been so long I can't remember for sure. Another thing to remember about Trackmania games is that even if you're playing online, I -think- you never affect other cars. You drive right through them.

With all the series Ubisoft has on Steam, I must say that pulling a Trackmania day sound kinda cheap...
Anywho, four more days to go.

Looks like a cross between Grip Shift and Mirror's Edge. Do you have any air control?mxgt said:

It's the "only one game" effect
1st day: 5 games on sale
2nd day: 2 games on sale
3rd day: 1 game on sale
You see where I'm going

Bans for everyone who passes up Trackmania. Even if you already own it.
"So what's the difference between the Star Edition and free? This has been on my wishlist for the longest time is all."
Trackmania Nations has only one environment, Stadium. Each environment has vastly different handling and different blocks. Trackmania United Forever Turbo Star Edition XX #reload has Seven.
It's like 7 Trackmania Nations in one.

Same except I started playing it and am at the 5th or so level (and the game is not fast paced). Hope the bug doesn't hit.Bebpo said:What the hell? I paid good money for this+expansion in the winter steam sale and haven't even gotten to playing it yet. This sucks

Only in-game currency, there is no real money transaction in the game whatsoever.

Honestly I'm learning not to buy stuff unless I'm sure I will finish within 3-4 months. Otherwise most of the time the price drops and I lose out. Ugh must stop buying compilation packs.

Oh man I was just asking a few weeks ago about whether Track Mania ever goes on sale and now it has and now I'm buying it oh man oh man.

I meant sandbox as in create and play etc. Not free roaming. Thanks for answering my question, though.
Moving on. Regarding the Anno 1404 situation, if you have the Venice expansion, you can manually update your Steam version to the latest patch, unfortunately this method will not work for the base game.

It's really strange that Steam doesn't have the patch, because the Impulse version is patched to the latest version. Makes me think there is more to the story that we aren't privy to.
Well, Outrun 2006 used to be on Steam, which is basically Outrun 2. Shame Sega shut down the servers and gave the game no direct connection option. Plus, it locks up on start up pretty often, and doesn't work with the overlay. If you want Multiplayer in the game now, you have to make a VPN. Even then, I only assume it would work, hoping Sega doesn't require you to be signed in to play Lan.Princess Skittles said:
