Is the second any better? I'm a bit leery after getting burned by the first.

The second one is short but has an interesting presentation. I don't know much beyond those generalisations. I've got both sitting in my cart right now, not sure if I want to pull the trigger.

Yeah, I'm thinking of buying it mainly because of Shanghai.

I cannot co-op with my gf on one PC, can I?

Hmm, at 4.99 I'm quite hesitant to pull the trigger on either. Especially when there's still one day left and the TR games are still a possibility.

Bought both, probably won't have them installed until this evening.

Ok......................................how does it work? Two people on one keyboard? Two controllers?

2 controllers would be the best. Or I'm sure one keyboard and one controller would work as well.

I paid good money for this Dynex!

Kane and Lynch 2 is one of the worst games I've ever played. There is nothing redeeming about it, and the shaky cam actually makes me sick. It's as if they tried to fail.
That said, it was fun in the same way that 50 Cent: Blood in the Sand was fun. Get some of your friends over there to play the game while drinking, and you'll have a great time mocking the game and questioning why the developers thought any of it was a good idea. So I hate the game, but give it a thumbs up.

AC Bro Deluxe is only $40 at D2D with the President's Day discount. Very tempting...

No need to spend that much, the 770's and 880's will work too. Just add a Zalman mic if you need to chat.

They will but they're about the same price as the 990s, for whatever reason.sooperkool said:
Valve gets a cut of the sales on Steam. If console licensing fees justify a $10 price increase then so do Steam licensing fees.vocab said:

Retailr gets even bigger cut, yet boxed copies are 10$ cheaper.

Steam also controls like what, 70 to 80 percent of the DD PC game market?
That's why you should spread your purchases around, and pay less.

I heard a hot rumor that Valve is taking 30% off the top, but all that info is protected.Zzoram said:
Retailers tend to loss lead on games to get warm bodies in the store to buy the goods with the better margins on them. Fry's Electronics usually drops a tenner off the price at launch.Castor Krieg said:

So I think D2D is putting on a sale to try to make up for the Steam switching costs. Which is smart, because people sure don't want to switch.epmode said:
I actually like the K&L2 demo, enough that I was considering playing full price for it before it ended up getting slammed by reviewers and most of GAF. I guess good things come to those who wait, just got it for $5 instead of $60.
should be worth the price of a footlong from subway

Ok, so I bought SupCom 2 and it's pissing me off.
Is there a reason my ACU and Engineers won't build half the time?
It's not a lack of Energy/Mass, so what the hell?

Kane & Lynch 1 has local co-op, K&L2 does not. K&L1 is a ton of fun in co-op, I blew threw it in a couple of sittings with my brother using the MKB (he's more used to it) and I used a 360 pad.
If you can get a set up like that I definitely think it's worth the 5$ (I love co-op with my bro so I didn't mind the 50$ on release).

They'll just sit there with the ghost of the building I want and not do anything.

I buy Civ 5, they say their site is fucked and I have 12 pounds of credit now and no game. I try to buy again and it says it's processing.
They'd best give me my game.
