Plants vs Zombies is a TD game? is another cool game, and Revenge of the Titans is another small good TD game

PvZ is boring and I didn't even like Orcs Must Die.
Defense Grid feels like work.

I liked PvZ but it was really easy. There just comes a point where TD isn't exciting anymore-- and after playing the best, I'd rather skip the rest.
How's the emulation on this one? I'd love me some In The Hunt
Just bought it and it's pretty spot on. Two problems though is you need to go into the options to enable controller support, as well as reassign the buttons which are crazy, and you have to do that for every game. It's worth it though because it's a great collection of games, even if some are totally ripping off more popular arcade titles.

Thinking about going through everyone on my steam friendslist who doesn't have DOTA 2 and sending them an invite.

Just send it to them. I got rid of mine that way too.
Like Aaron said it's pretty good except for the poor audio quality and no save state xD
Here are some screens:
For $2 I think it's a really great deal. There are some great shooters on this collection and an awesome beat em up.

Looking through my steam backlog for a game to start playing. Does the Witcher 2 control well with a controller?
Bought & started playing Amnesia.
Holy crap my nerves are shot alread.y
Are we friends? I'd love a DOTA 2 invite

Hmm I might check it out now. Liked the last TD game I played that had tower HP (Defenders Quest).
Edit: lol it's $1.25. bought.

Do I need to download capsule in order to play the IREM Arcade Hits?
Yes, but the game is DRM free and there's a way to keep a copy of the installer so you don't have to use Capsule ever again.
- Download the game from Capsule but don't install it.
- Open the download folder for Capsule (check in Capsule settings for it's location)
- Extract the fullgame.zip that's on the game folder there and you'll get the DRM free installer.
Hrmm.....No.

Do u have proof of Nolan north in it/?.?
Haha, I was seconds away from editing that in myself.
I thought some of the later/challenge Plants vs Zombies levels were fairly difficult or stressful.
I have probably always considered myself someone who is not a fan of tower defense games, but the three I do like are:
1. Plants vs Zombies -- humorous, polished, creative, perhaps the least "standard" tower defense game.
2. Orcs Must Die -- also humorous but in a different style, unique in that it was the first FPS-style tower defense game I played, clean controls and interface. I didn't finish it so I can't speak as to whether it gets boring.
3. Defense Grid -- the most traditional tower defense of the three, I still found it surprisingly engrossing with the story, the polish, the slowly ramped up towers, the options you have, and the entertaining Portal free DLC.
Now of course, different people enjoy different types of games. Some people might prefer Call of Duty, or sports games, and I don't play those even though they may be polished, high-quality games. Likewise tower defense probably appeal to people who like the gradual unlocks and the puzzle gameplay, even though it can get complicated in Defense Grid. Humor and style are probably personal things -- some people may love one game because of it, and others might be turned off. I would say the list I put above is from most to least accessible, but even Defense Grid is still quite accessible on the starting levels.
If someone really wants to try a puzzle game that is like doing work, check out SpaceChem. It's like doing VLSI chip layout in game form.
how do you guys feel about anomaly war zone, the reverse TD game? i was a big fan of that one + the online TD game with all the gems... forgot what that was called.
mind shooting me one my way?

I actually like it better in PvZ.
Crazy Dave. It's pretty obvious it's him.

Nolan North is in every game and comic based cartoon ever. It's pretty annoying at this point.

It has gotten to a point where I literally can't take games with Nolan North as the main character seriously anymore. It just takes me out of the experience entierely.

You should play Spec Tops. They cast him as like a mindfuck I heard.

Well there goes that twist, I guess. Thanks for that prior warning of potential mind fuck.

I did. It was terrible for a lot of other reasons, but his voice definitely didn't improve the game.
Those are pretty much my top three TD games as well, in reverse order. I think those three pretty much cover everything you could possibly do with tower defense, short of making a TD MMO or something.

But dude didn't you like the deep reason for casting him? It was like deep commentary you didn't even know. Mindfuck.

Still have some copies of The Cave for $10 each, a few have requested it but not heard back.
It's a Pre-Order Steam gift and includes the TF2 items, which you can sell when the game is released.
Plants vs Zombies is amazing by the way, the soundtrack make me want to play it all night long.
It is really easy though as stated so far, but I guess I still have a long way to go. Pretty much one of the very few tower games i like.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
It's a pretty good first person shooter.
I don't know what that has to do with the discussion at hand...

nah, only if it ain't a steam game, and even then i think it's optional.

On the Quake 3 Engine no less.
Might be interested if you can sell me on it
It's Double Fine's new adventure game (not the kickstarter one), spearheaded by Ron Gilbert.

Hahahah of course they did.
He said sell him, not make him wonder at what point Gilbert lost it.
Mine is 387MB, strange. And I only have the Nightmare on whatever DLC, not the kung-fu fighting one. I'll wait till the latter is 91% off before grabbing it
There wasn't a deep reason. The writer said he'd been cast before he even began starring in a lot of the roles that define him now.
