yay SS2!
I normal play steam on my PC desktop but for the next semester I'll be on a macbook pro and only have access to offline steam because uni blocks the ports.
I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for any good cheap games that don't need to be played online- sort of games I'm into include Civ V, Dota 2, FTL, Super Meat Boy or those sort of games?
I've been doing a lot of MBA gaming lately; do you like Paradox games (ie. Europa Universalis III, Crusader Kings II)? I am fiendishly addicted to their games, they'll run well on a MBP (though I recommend Boot Camp if you do, the ports/Steamplay can be hit/miss) so I'd check that out if you're into strategy games. actually, on second thought, do NOT get CK II w/o Boot Camp, it is hideously optimized on OSX, but their other port jobs seem fine.
also, XCOM runs fine if you don't have that already. it's fun. turn the settings down a bit, still looks pretty decent and won't melt your computer, which is always a plus.
