All these people talking about Alan Wake are making me sad I didn't jump on it. Can anyone describe the atmosphere to me a little? is it creepy??

It is exactly what is on the box. Psychological Action Thriller. Meaning that.. its not Silent Hill, its something different. Imagine reading a very creepy novel about a spooky tale set in the dark woods in the Pacific northwest. Imagine the story told in an episodic television style and imagine creepy figures, unanswered questions and spooky wooded atmosphere that sucks you in like only Bioshock could match.

Its good, its very good.

Gotta love a game that is so lazy that it instead tells you to just install a third party application if you want controller support...

The game was built with Flash and Adobe couldn't care less about implementing controller support.

Kinda funny how the Arma II sale is only 20%. The tides sure did turn on that game.

CHRIST, this hasn't turned out how I planned at all. Already spent $71 out of my planned $30. Barring any surprises, I think the Elder Scrolls pack is the only other thing I'm gonna go for. PLEASE let it be the only other thing I'm gonna go for.

oh god

Everything is moe to me
im sure a hundred people have asked this already; but does gaf think there's a good chance of skyrim hitting 50% off?
 
I'm only allowing myself to spend $50 dollars, because I'm desperate to play ANYTHING this weekend. Space Marine is alright for $8 bucks, huh? What about Bioshock 2?
 
Lol shouldn't guys be, I don't know... PLAYING some of your games right now? I am currently playing Binary Domain. :)

Worth 5 dollars to me. Story was sadly not as good as first, but combat is 100% better.

Also feel free to add me on steam. Profile is The_Inquisitor. Seems like I am going to be playing the 360 a little less now. :p

Alice sucks, don't buy. Just get the art book. The controls are probably more responsive.
Alice is great, do buy. The controls are really responsive if you run it at 60 FPS.

It has great environments and exploration with tons of secret stuff to find, and solid combat and platforming.
 
Come on now, Alice was not that bad. In fact, for $4.99 it's a steal. It's not the best, but it's worth checking out for cheap.

I got it just cause its a game I think would be interesting to play whether its good or bad I think it'll make a good addition to my library.

The one thing am finding disappointing about the Indie Packs is that so far theres no additional games I wanna jump for.

Alice for £3.74 seems good to me - I've read its not 'great' but I've yet to see it as terrible. Hope its more than 'looks interesting'.

First buy of the sale thus far!
