The game is perfectly fine...especially if you like Ubisoft's brand of open world games.

The only Assassin's Creed I like is 2. I played it, 1 and 3. I hate collecting/finding stuff just to fucking do it in an open world. Hopefully I can just rush through the story like I did with Just Cause 2. That game is filled with collectible crap but the core gameplay is fantastic and you can just go missions to mission.

FC3 + TR >>>>>> AC

Lesser of evils.

 

[antitrop]

Far Cry 3 has great shooting mechanics, but everything else that it's wrapped up in is fucking insufferable.

 

[Tybolt]

I feel kind of bad that I missed the deal on Rogue Legacy because I'm still on the fence about it. Think the last day tomorrow will be the encore day as usual?

 

[mikeGFG]

I just bought it though

Buy Far Cry 2 and play that instead.

 

[z1ggy]

What i didn´t like about Tom Raider are the QTEs. But it´s a good action game.

 

[AsylumX]

I need Dead Space 2 but i think there will not be a sale on the game right?

It was a flash sale a couple of days ago... So maybe tomorrow... Maybe

Didn't like that one either.

Really just Far Cry 3. I used to think Dishonored was overrated, but then I played it correctly.

You done good.

Get Dust: An Elysian Tail. GOTY 2013.

I would advise against this

we don't read here.

I think i'm going to start answering with a random number in my posts and see how that goes.

'What are the chances X game goes lower?'

37%

If we all started doing that, not only would it be quite funny, but we might start seeing some results.

 

[antitrop]

DAT hyperbole.

Come now, Derrick, 2013 has seen Aliens: Colonial Marines, The War Z, Ride to Hell: Retribution and Ashes Cricket 2013. Be at least fair.

To be fair, The War Z was 2012. Replace it with Walking Dead: SI.

 

[kris.]

I dont know anything about Brutal Legend. But Double Fine is kinda alright.

Bought.

It's a great game with some iffy RTS bits but it's wonderfully voice-acted and the soundtrack is amazing. A goddamn steal at the price it's at right now.

 

[Giever]

Really just Far Cry 3. I used to think Dishonored was overrated, but then I played it correctly.

Teach me how to play it correctly. I'm at The Golden Cat and am not having much fun with it.

I'm surprised derrick likes AC more than TR

God I hated Far Cry 2. One of the most annoying and frustrating games I ever tried to play.

 

[phantomspiker]

Far Cry 3 has great shooting mechanics, but everything else that it's wrapped up in is fucking insufferable.

I had fun hunting animals and raiding the outposts, but yeah everything else was pretty tedious.

 

[antitrop]

Didn't like that one either.

I liked FC3 more than FC2, for whatever little that's worth.

2 is far more ambitious, though. 3 is more polished. A polished turd.

 

[WhiskeyDiver]

So far, I've picked up:

Brutal Legend
Divinity II - Director's Cut
Far Cry 3
Skyrim
Max Payne 3
Rogue Legacy


All for around $29ish total? I can't remember the exact total. I'm damn glad I didn't get Brutal Legend yesterday when it was $4.99. Hesitation pays off sometimes.

I want to get one title. My only question is which one? So many options.

 

[Grief.exe]

That hate for WarZ runs too deep.

 

[antitrop]

Dishonored isn't a stealth game, it's a murder simulator with cool magical powers.

 

[FloatOn]

Honestly, if you just do the base takeover missions, the radio towers and story Far Cry 3 isn't so bad.

You can totally burn yourself out though on all that filler content. Don't do that.

God I hated Far Cry 2. One of the most annoying and frustrating games I ever tried to play.

seconded. far cry 2 is some boring stuff.

 

[Intheflorsh]

Dishonored isn't a stealth game, it's a murder simulator with cool magical powers.

People tend to say this, but I think Dishonored is an excellent stealth game when played on the highest difficulty and with all the obnoxious hud elements turned off.

[poopninjamvc3mk]

omg bioshock infinite just looks so good, there's something that I really like about its art direction

It's the worst Bioshock in gameplay but probably the best story.

http://www.indiegala.com/?codemasters

Oh sweet, I've always wanted to get Jericho, but $1 seemed like too much. Now I can get Jericho and Damnation for $1. Two shitty games for the price of one! Awesome!

... no seriously, I'm elated.

 

[antitrop]

Bioshock 1 is easily the worst gameplay in the franchise. A case could probably be made for 2 having the best, but I enjoyed the guns/vigors in Infinite the most of the 3.

I think Bioshock 1 has the best story, and 2 has the worst (unless you count Minerva's Den), Infinite is in the middle.

Secretly the best game you bought.

 

[Grief.exe]

Far Cry 2 is so polarizing.

 

[Anteater]

yeah, i'm ok with the gameplay so far, infact there aren't much of it :lol, but everything else is great and pretty :0

 

[LuuKyK]

If you still have any problem with tge payment contact their customer support, they were super helpful when I contacted they.

You mean the BoaCompra support? I was just talking with someone a minute ago, it wasn't really helpful but I think I managed to solve the problem. I had to cancel two times the same item, and I think the system got kinda crazy because it was not even accepting a new purchase. :lol I will wait a bit to try again with another card I guess, because I am afraid they will charge me multiple times for this, and that would not be good.

 

[KScorp]

If I buy Brave New World , does that prohibit me from playing with those that do not have the expansion for Civ 5?

No, you can play with anyone, but you can only use the expansions that everyone in the game has.

 

[Dec]

Secretly the best game you bought.

Seriously. That game is great. Can't wait for Original Sin.

 

[MisterLuffy]

Will Garry's Mod go lower than $2.49? Just asking.

 

[UnrealEck]

People are saying Far Cry 3 and Tomb Raider were the most overrated games this year. What about Bioshock Infinite? The only thing I found excellent about that game was the presentation. The gameplay was very meh.

 

[okayfrog]

Will Garry's Mod go lower than $2.49? Just asking.

It has never gone any lower than $2.49 and it has been around for nearly a decade now, so my guess is no.

 

[Glass Shark]

Will Garry's Mod go lower than $2.49? Just asking.

Not this sale.

 

[boosh5]

Can someone post an image of the deals w/ prices? There's that one a few pages back, but it sounds like maybe some of those have changed?

 

[MisterLuffy]

It has never gone any lower than $2.49 and it has been around for nearly a decade now, so my guess is no.

Not this sale.

Ok, thanks.

 

[Sourtreats]

Is Stanley Parable worth £6?

 

[gogogow]

I play on a crappy laptop but will get a new rig or steamMachine soon:

So far
CS GO for 3.74
Borderlands GOTY for 5.61

Looking at:
Fallout 3 4.99
TombRaider 9.99 (cannot run it but it is tempting)
Torchlight 3.74
Far Cry 3 7.49 (cannot run it decently enough)

I need Dead Space 2 but i think there will not be a sale on the game right?

If you don't mind using Origin, it's $5 in the Origin Store.

 

[LuuKyK]

I had fun with it, but its certainly not a game I would go back to after finishing the first time. Having said that, Columbia is probably one of the most well crafted cities I have ever seen. Such a lovely place, full of life, unique and well designed. As you said, they nailed the presentation.

 

[Arthea]

I almost bought Overlord games at gamersgate, glad I waited, *fortunate bundle arrives*

Guess I was lucky then xD

Like Dishonored and Bulletstorm, the fun to be found in Bioshock Infinite is from creating cool combinations with your powers. Make your own fun.

If you just run around killing everything with the Machine Gun, yeah, the gameplay sucks.

 

[CecilRousso]

Is Stanley Parable worth £6?

It's interesting, different and praised by a lot of people and reviewers. Take a chance on it and buy it.

I just bought it myself.

Actually, people were saying Far Cry 3 was one of the most overrated games last year.

 

[z1ggy]

I had fun playing Bioshock Infinite, got bored at some parts but the last part of the game totally worth the experience.

 

[MMBosstones86]

slightly disappointed there wasn't an AC sale. Was hoping to pick up AC3.

...yes I know its terribad.

So far : Rogue Legacy, Max Payne 3, and Grid2 (off GMG). Pretty mediocre sale

 

[Sourtreats]

I just bought it myself.

The Demo was interesting. I'm just very tight on money at the moment and don't want to waste £6. I was hoping for 50%+

 

[-tetsuo-]

Like Dishonored and Bulletstorm, the fun to be found in Bioshock Infinite is from creating cool combinations with your powers. Make your own fun.

If you just run around killing everything with the Machine Gun, yeah, the gameplay sucks.

The level design in Dishonored really gives you a chance to open up, though. On top of the powered being better.
