Is anyone else unable to load the store page :|
Yes it does.
Only one that is affected is The Forgotten Sands. It has a one time registration with the UPlay stuff. It was originally always online but it looks like they've patched that out now.

Only the newest one (2010, forgotten sands) has UbiDRM.
Edit: Wait, does 2008 have it? I thought that was completely DRM free?

I went with PoP 2008 and sands of time...$4.98 total
Everyone who gets Sands of Time needs this:
http://www.wsgf.org/software/universal-widescreen-uniws-patcher (Widescreen)
http://www.robpol86.com/index.php/ImageCFG (To run on single core and avoid slowdown)
And don't forget to change CanStretchRect=1 to CanStretchRect=0 in the hardware.ini

Damage so far:
Saints Row The Third - $12.49
Bastion - $3.74 (or whatever it was)
A bit more than I normally spend, actually! If Skyrim were ~$20 I would have bought that too.
Might still buy Peggle if it goes on sale.

Thinking about that combo as well, even though I have SoT for PS2 and finished 2008 when it came out. On the fence with Forgotten Sands, though.
Have heard enough bad things about the SoT sequels over the years to never want to play them.
Warrior Within +1
It's got a few water freeze, jumping puzzles especially right near the end you have to jump back and forth between freezing and unfreezing water pipe things, all while making sure that you aren't freezing a pipe that is currently about to disappear on you making you have to do the entire thing over again.
I was pulling my hair out.

You are a wonderful person.
I was gonna get it for 9.99, but fuck this, I'll get Monkey Island Special editions pack instead.
I'm considering those just getting those 2 and Forgotten Sands. Since yeah I haven't exactly heard nearly as much praise for the SoT sequels.

PoP 2008 is a great deal, I had no regrets when I bought it like 3 years ago for $15 I think, good game.
The steam overlay doesn't work, but the tracking gameplay time has been fixed I believe (before it was fixed I would just relaunch the launcher after the game booted).

I don't even want to know the damage that has been done to my bank account.
Fuck, that was dumb of me.
That's all I've purchased so far. All on sale of course.
Fuck, that was dumb of me.

Trust me. It's mechanically the same as Sands of Time, with additions of different time powers, and it looks incredible. I liked 2008 as well but Forgotten Sands is a better next gen game sequel to the Sands trilogy.

Steam wallet now down to $10 from $150 lol
Hell yes. That game is beautiful and whimsical. Definitely worth $3.74.

What's the consensus on PoP Two Thrones and Forgotten Sands?
Read back a few pages and you'll see.
you loved it!

You did well. I know it's only one fucking euro, but these small things piss me off, and unfortunately are very common :l.
5:25 AM and still awake... DAMN YOU STEAM! Good night, guys!

No. You need to buy them. They are so freaking good!!
None at all. Great price for great games. Also love the feature to switch back to VGA graphics.

Isn't PoP 2008 the easiest one of all the PoP series? The game really plays for you?
Waiting for Fallout 3 or New Vegas to go on sale. Come On Gabe!
Anyone doing a Borderlands 4 pack?

Gaben pls
The Two Thrones is an actually good game, so I would recommend that.
After that I'd go for Forgotten Sands, I found it the most enjoyable after SoT and TTT.
Warrior Within focus too much on subpar fighting and has an annoying semi-open world design, while 2008 has a flat difficulty curve and introduces no interesting gameplay mechanics during the game, you'll be doing the exact same thing 10 hours into the game as you were doing 5 minutes into it. Pretty game though.
Edit: Too late.
