huge ass update for sanctum. 1.2gb for me.

3 new game modes, new weapons, towers, new languages, maps.

still need to play it soon but that's some quality support.
 
Any US gaffer wanna gift me the Dead Space pack + Ghostbusters. I'll PayPal right away.

edit - I was getting confused with daylight savings. Sucks that I missed out on the deal.

The sale's over.
As much as I want Bastion I can wait since I'm sure it'll go on sale again for Christmas, and I need to start playing games I already bought.

Played a few minutes of Bastion. Graphics are real pretty and the music is great. Got it for $15.00, and I think it's worth the original price. $7.50 is an awesome sell folks. :D

I'm going to go against the grain and say I hated Bastion. Once you get past the 'OMG THE NARRATOR IS SAYING WHAT I'M DOING' then you are left with a shallow game. The levels are all 100% linear and the game plays like your typical hack and slash.

Good thing I saved some money :)
How good is Bastion? And how long is it?

I really liked it. It's a fairly simple arpg with an amazing soundtrack, a great atmosphere, and enough weapon options to cater to playstyle. I think it's only 6-8 hours if that but I found it quite replayable.

This is accurate as well.

Wasn't that the game with the comic sans font in the subtitles or something? Avoid.

I find it monkey bananas they even have hooks to set that up for specific games. I'd be fine with it if only for the fact that other The games don't also do it.

Holy shit, my dad would be happy!
He's been trying to finish Evil Genius since it's release day. But due to circumstances outside his control, he always loses his game:
On week of release, installed it on a desktop at his holiday house, played for a few days, desktop gets stolen a week later;
Buy it new and install on home computer, Plays for a few days, house gets hit by lightning, PC hardrive is fried, Dog found the CD;
Bought it again, installed on his laptop, laptop gets stolen;
Fast forward to march this year, I show him how to install it on steam (well buy), two weeks later, break in at his house, laptop stolen .. yet again He used lastpass to generate a pass for steam, but lost his master password.

Two days ago, he buys it off of steam again! .. so good so far :p

Sanctum update is sweet.

Also, will Voxatron be added to your Steam games list when out of Alpha?


most likely yes, the steam key given with the humble bundle contains all those games, they will just arrive later on your steam account.

Why the fuck does he keep getting things stolen? Where the fuck do you live?

Well South Africa, house break ins/ theft is just really common here. Not in a bad area though. Neighbourhood just got hit with a crime streak sadly. It's all good now though.

(Summer home is sadly just due to druggies. They steal anything they can sell)

Blizzard said:
Ha, if you knew where he lived, you could steal his Evil Genius games! You won't win THAT easily!

Lol he would have to scale the 8ft wall and bypass the electric fence :p ... not to mention the motion detectors, CCTV cameras or the 5 dogs :p

Makes me happy I live in a complex, only got a lock on my door.
