They've been updating the game since then. I think they occasionally update the demo as well.
At least everyone who didn't preorder it can buy Armageddon now. Wait a minute...

Yeah force Unleashed 1 is crazy big for no good reason. 2 is alot smaller, though.

Don't feel bad. I bought it for 15$ as well. I needed some PC games(Just got my PC this month)So it's 15$ well spent. Most of the folks who get a shit load games don't even play them, or beat them. But yeah, everything else I waited for.

It adds espionage, religion and gives you eight new Civs to play with. Religion doesn't seem to make much of a difference in altering the A.I.'s behaviour, at best it adds a few extra stat bonuses but those can be immensely helpful in the higher difficulties. Espionage is really only useful on the higher difficulty levels as well as it helps you keep up with the A.I. and its advantages. Otherwise it's just a means to sway city-states in your favour without expending money or completing quests for them and for counter-espionage in your own cities. You'll quickly eclipse the A.I. in research on the normal difficulty. The new Civs are fun to play around with and seemed geared towards to specific policy track builds, which make knock you out of your comfortable playstyle rut.
Any idea how big the game is now? If it's >2GB I might reconsider for now.

Shit I got to get those. If they go under 10$ I'll grab. I beat the first one, but never got a chance to get the second one.

Nevermind!
Didn't have it installed, so I queued it up. 357.4MB, actually. (oddly the "local files" in the properties menu says 585MB, oh well)
I'm down if you're hosting OMD2, PM me I can't keep up with this thread
Armageddon is literally the only reason why I pre-ordered Revolution. Completely worth it.
That's even stranger heh, thanks.
Wait, where is Worms Armageddon on the Steam store? Dammit, I don't want to go find the disc I bought YEARS ago.
WHY CAN'T I BUY IT GABEN, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?

Ditto. Love having it digitally available whenever I want. I didn't even install Revolution at all let alone play it.
If you didn't preorder Revolution, you're totally SOL. I don't know if Team17 has any plans of selling it individually in the future. It's a damn shame, I would have liked to have it on Steam.
I thought it sucked. Controls poorly compared to the previous games, and doesn't have leaderboards or multi like the console versions.
If you're the particularly optimistic sort, you could consider the game having its own albeit currently useless store page a positive omen, as Rayman 2 (pre-order incentive for Rayman Origins) does not.
I think the only thing Team17 has got correct is that if they sold Worms Armageddon on Steam is that they'd make money super fast then no one would ever buy any other Worms games after that.
Sadly, I'm not
I'll wait until tomorrow before buying the games I want (Puzzle Dimension, Orcs Must Die franchise and Galaxy on Fire 2 -this one from GMG). Maybe tomorrow's dailies are better than any of these games, and I'd rather spend my money on them.
Wtf? No leaderboards or multi? Butts.
Damn you guys for making me want another game. I don't have much money!!
The game looks like a blast. Tempted to buy it tomorrow.Piercedveil

I'm also trying to hold off on this
Ugh.Yeah, to paraphrase an exchange I had in another thread, somebody once asked, "If I'm getting Armageddon, why would I want to play Revolution?", to which I responded, "That's precisely why it's a pre-order incentive."

You guys are missing out! I just played a round where I was King, and my team of gaffers had to defend the throne. Shit was hectic.
I died after 5 minutes.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Grab Chivalry while it's still on sale, guys.
You guys are trying hard to sells us on Chivalry.
Think I'll get it during the Winter sale if it goes on sale again.
For anyone that's considering getting Civ V, GetGames has Gods & Kings back on stock so you can pick up Civ V GOTY+G&K (or 2 other selected games) for $15.

I played some earlier and it's pretty fun. Should have hopped on if there were a bunch of people playing.
The "HD" in the title doesn't stand for "High Definition" but "Hamstrung Design".
Huge Disappointment.

There's also my word: http://putthatback.org/video-game-review/fairy-bloom-freesia/
In other news I seriously just now discovered that there's an "Add a non-steam Game to my library" option.
Added Ghostbusters and wrote out a reminder as to why I'm still a child.

In terms of controls it's very easy to memorize and perform commands. Of course you have to contend with the fact that everyone is probably going to kill you(even if they're on your team). Start off with a two-handed weapon and muck about in free-for-all battles for awhile. There's also a tutorial you should take to get down the basics.
So weird to see the second screenshot since my Professor (who's also a level designer) designed that whole warehouse level. Even showed us all the WIP he did.

It's pretty easy to get into. You'll be killing fools in no time.
I do recommend trying the tutorial sometime.
Just played a few minutes and I'm already regretting my purchase. The controls feel slightly off, it's not hitting the nostalgic THPS vibe for me at all. The menus look like power point presentations. The main menu has the "Single Player" option which is funny because there's no multiplayer. No graphical options whatsoever besides changing resolution. Game is ugly. It has screen tearing. It was only $5 but it could have been better spent on something else in this sale...
It's really easy to pick up and play. And I cannot not stress enough how satisfying it is to chop the head off your opponent. So good.

Goddamn I'm glad I caught Hotline Miami during that flash sale yesterday, the game is absolutely worthy of all the hype.
