AvP is awesome for $3, everyone should buy who hasn't.

Figured I'd jump on it at that price - find out I already own it. No idea when I picked it up.

Help me understand this please:
LA Noire + DLC Bundle = 3.75 + 4.50 = 8.25
LA Noire Complete Edition = 15
What am I missing here?
or this ^

I didn't even install either Max Payne 3 or the LA Noire that came with it, but ti doesn't have the DLC? Then I might buy it, as there are some cases in it.
Doesn't the complete edition come with the useless prima guide?
Well, in that case, I would gladly throw an Aussie a Paypal gift to get the game slightly cheaper!

Holy crap I'm stuck in a single steam page!
Seriously?
I rather liked LA Noire. Sure, it had a lot of flaws and the execution didn't quite live up to the vision, but they got big thumbs up from me for daring to do something different and I found more than enough to like in the game to play it through to the end.
Btw, anyone who likes this game should also consider adding Mafia II to their wishlist if they haven't already. The gameplay is different, but it's also got that period-drama storytelling thing going on.

Well, in that case, like DagJT I would gladly Paypal you or anyone else willing to take monies to get just the base game for me on Steam at the cheaper rate?
Excellent, thanks. I looked on the first page for a thread but didn't see it.

How does gifting work? I've never tried it before, but I'd like to help you out.

Anyone still knows the message board, where one of the Revelations 2012 devs posted? It was some message board relating to video game development.
Thanks!~
Thanks!~

It's there ;p
check that link^ or ask wilflare
I'll have to give it a shot later tonight. If I can get it for around 35 then I don't mind faulty math.
Hot damn look at Steam devaluing that game so much. If I didn't have it already I would be all over it, it's a decent shooter and playing as alien and predator is kind of fun. You can get a lot worse games for more money....like LA Noire!!
See above for my opinion of whether it's worth it from a gameplay perspective. As far as technical considerations -- the game is capped at 30 fps. While this doesn't hamper gameplay, it may be unpleasant to look at for some people, so they may want to look into applying a hack to unlock the fps.

ask someone to gift it for you, lot of gaffers are reputable here
or do what i did and buy it using a vpn from the US store
works out at £4.79 for the complete edition which ain't bad, hopefully the patches improved the shoddy port somewhat

So is LA Noire good
The game didn't do much for me, I would advise not to pick up the DLC as the community has been left to rot and is pretty much dead.
Great potential for MP, but a bit too late to fix the game for the community.
Yeah definitely don't get the DLC people. But $3 for an average shooter is hard to resist.

Yes, for the first 2 - 3 hours.

Agh, at $3 I might finally bite on AvP.
It's one of my least favorite games of all time. The fact that I paid $60 and went in expecting a quality Rockstar experience colored my perception, I'm sure, but I was actually offended by just how bad it was. Grab a Choose Your Own Adventure book instead. It's basically the same thing without the tedious side quests or the boring-beyond-belief evidence acquisition.

It was compelling for the first few cases but the novelty wore off when the interrogations start to become frustratingly limited and illogical at times and the evidence collecting portion becomes boring. I ultimately never finished it but I think you can certainly get $5 of enjoyment out of it, especially if your curious.

I bought Resident Evil 5 for cheap thinking that whilst crap it would be worth it. I've played the first wee bit of it - already dreadful (how do reviewers keep doing this, surely they noticed?).
So won't be getting L.A. Noire despite the price, it'll likely sit quietly doing nothing. I've got better things to do. The criticism all sounds exactly like what I expected from the trails alone.
Not sure why Rockstar wasted its time there :/

I was really interested in LA Noire when it came out, but then I watched a friend play through some of it and lost all interest. It just looked really dull :\

I'm still stoked for the game. Can't go wrong at 3.75 ... worst that could happen is it taking up space on my Back up drive

Are you seeing $3.75 on the US store? I'm seeing $5 for the base game and $7.50 for the complete edition.
Edit: I'm in the US.

For me, It's 4.99$ for Standard Edition and 7.50 for the Complete Edition.
I'm in Canada btw.
