I've already got every game in it, if that counts. Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet is the first GFWL game where I had issues. My save became corrupted towards the end. Made me so angry. Good game besides that issue.

OK so its not just me, and yes Fuck Ubisoft. I really wanted to marathon Assassins Creed 2 for the next 5 or 6 hours today but every hour it's down is another hour less for those plans.

Two Wolrs 2 75% off, everyone should buy it. An under hyped gem IMO.

It has its issues but it's still one of the best FPS I've played in a long time.
It's like Dungeon Master but with better graphics. I thought it was worth full price.

That's 2013 now.

I can speak on Swords, which I beat recently on PC.
The music, of course, sounds much better on a good PC than it does on an iOS device. It looks crisp and ran smoothly constantly for me. The controls with the mouse were also very responsive with my clicking and swiping.
So, a thumbs up to Sworcery on the PC.

No idea. What I do know is that the chances of me being another Ubisoft game again (that isn't Rayman) are very low.
My list of companies that I refuse to support is slowly growing.

bad gameplay lol
So I'm really enjoying the hell out of DarkStar One. And I want other people to check it out as well. So here's the deal. The first person who gives me some sort of visual proof that they like space sims (such as Freelancer) and can promise that they'll actually play DSO and not just store it in their library forever will be sent the Patricians and Merchants Pack, which includes DarkStar One, Patrician III, and The Great Art Race. Note that I know nothing about the other two games. it's just that buying the pack is the only way to get DSO on sale for some reason.
Anyway, yeah, there you have it. Gogogo!

How are the Windows versions of the Prince of Persia games? Any BS DRM? If so, for what title(s)?
9.99 for all of the PoP games from Sands of Time and forward is just so damn cheap!
EDIT: The page for Prince of Persia Complete Pack says there is Ubisoft DRM in one or more of the games, but none of the games' individual pages say anything of the sort.

Damn I was hoping for Walking Dead to be a little bit cheaper. I'll have to give it a miss this time.
Totally straightforward, thanks Microsoft.

I'm glad Rayman is the only Ubisoft game I picked up. Steering clear of any others.

This is why I refuse to buy Anno 2070 and HoMM 6 for more than 5. Hopefully they'll release them on GOG in 5 years or so.
Only Forgotten Sands has always online DRM you'll get thrown out of the game if you lose connection to the DRM server. The rest is fine (and the games are better, too).
Only if people can get past this..

Hell I haven't been able to activate mine yet with their servers to begin with. I really don't want to have to sign up for that forum to get that guy to manually do mine.

PoP 2008 and Forgotten Sands have native 360 controller support, the other 3 don't. Forgotten Sands has the Ubisoft uPlay loader.

Ok, doesn't sound too bad. Is the always online DRM some shit that gets installed on your computer (hate that), or is it just within the game itself?

So in the next 10-15min I will be making another post with a few questions.
The Rules:
1. Only 1 attempt at answering the questions.
2. PM *ONLY* your responses to me. DO NOT post your answers in the thread.
3. Please provide your Steam Name/Steam ID or a link to your Steam ID/Name so it is easy for me to give you your game.
....and lastly....
I urge anyone that has the means financially to do this if you can. I know alot of gamers here are tight for cash or out of work etc and if getting a free game helps, then that is a good thing...so pay it forward if you can.
Here are the questions. Please ensure you following the rules above. Thanks for playing!!!
1. What is the name of U2's 3rd Studio Album and the title of the last track on that album?
2. What is the name of U2's long time Manager?
3. What is the name of the Tour that featured a Claw like/Spaceship looking stage?
4. What song is this lyric from "And these are the days when our work has come asunder, And these are the days when we look for something other"?
5. What song is this lyric from "Where you live should not decide, Whether you live or whether you die"?
Good luck to those that want to play!

Only 1 correct entry so far. Posting this for the new page. 2 more copies of Magicka are up for grabs.

So the others can't be played with a controller? Or do they just not support 360 controllers out of the box?

I haven't tried MS Flight yet, but it's FTP. Does anyone know of any of the DLC packs that are especially awesome?

Deux Ex: HR for 7.49€
Portal 2 for 4.99€
Total War Shogun 2 for 9.99€
Trine 2 for 3.75€
The Witcher 2 for 15.99€

Now I have a backlog, feels weird (never had one when I had only a PS3)
Like I can't give proper love for each and every game like I used to

That game is still really fun to play though, like altered beast, and golden axe, sonic.

I recommend it as well. Its like the love letter to all the FPS fans that don't like the cover based ways of the new game. Circle strafing and health packs forever!

Yep, works fine in widescreen for me. What do you mean by "properly" though?

What's Killing Floor like? Everything I'm seeing seems to be MP centric, is there a single player mode? Also how does it fare on lower-end PC's? Mine runs games say more than a year or two old roughly well enough.

If you're going to buy Cities XL something, but 2011 instead. 2012 is buggy as shit.
