Ouch, that sucks. I used to work at a similar company, but the difference was everyone had computers and they just disabled internet access on all but one computer in the center of the office. Was so fucking stupid.

I think the general opinion is that New Vegas is what Fallout 3 was trying to be and failed completely because somehow is was boring.

Trying so hard not to get bodied by these deals. One thing I'm doing is not buying sequels to games in my backlog I haven't even touched (like AC2 and Fallout 3).
Casualties: ~$34
Alan Wake complete
Indy bundle 3
Armed and dangerous
Call of Cthulhu: DCotE
Lara Croft: GoL
Pixeljunk Eden + 1 more for gift
I think I'm doing okay. Could be a lot worse. Just need to snag that Binding of Isaac when it goes 75% off on the last day and MAYBE bioshock 2 and I'll be done after that... I think... I hope.

There's plenty of substantial differences. Yes the gameplay is similar, but what really sets the games apart is the setting, characters, story and so on. I could go on and on about how SIMILAR they are, but there's definitely enough to set them apart as well. If you like one franchise you're likely to like the other, but the differences in setting will make them feel like completely different games.
If you've never played any game in the franchise, New Vegas was definitely better than Fallout 3, at least in my opinion. The characters and setting was just so much stronger.
it came with Humble Bundle and i refuse to play it. watched LPs for it tho, lol

No. Fallout 3 is way better than New Vegas.
Nooo you must increase your backlog!
Gotcha
It's fun with a friend. It's a bit glitchy and unpolished (at least it was on 360).
If you like lord of the ring lores it's definitely a good pick-up. It's a diablo-loot-esqe game.

I can't tell if people talking about Amnesia are genuinely scared by it or just carrying out some elaborate sarcastic troll. I mean I can get that a game might make you jump once or twice, I've seen some people say it's like the scariest thing they've ever seen, then other people say it was a yawnfest and a terrible game with horrible production quality.
So which is it?
And What exactly is so scary about a video game anyway? Stuff jumps out, you hear some creepy noises, yadda yadda.

What do people reckon are the chances of Mirror's Edge being the community choice?

I think it can be avoided, depending upon your style of play. You'll have to do it at least once.

Haha! Saw it pop up while playing mah gamez. Figured it was a GAF member so I accepted it right away.
Thats a strange opinion to have, and wrong as well, considering Fallout 3 is the better game"

I am not touching Amnesia.....nope.
I'm always amazed that people actually share this opinion. Honestly I never can understand it.
Just playing with you of course, though I do completely disagree.

Any word on Dark Fall: Lost Souls??
I know it was a few pages back, but mirror's edge does have the time trial pack for pc. It's only on origin afaik http://store.origin.com/store/eaemea/en_GB/DisplayProductDetailsPage/productID.110843700, but there's a guide floating around somewhere to get it to work with the steam version. It's a pain in the arse though and the dlc is £5, so probably not worth it for most people.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Why :3?

I tried to like it, but I couldn't get into it. Scratches is the superior first-person point-and-click horror adventure game.
Least you have a choice. I'm at work and it's a slow day so all I can do is hit refresh.

Decent adventure game, lower budget. Made by the guy who did Lost Crown. Definitely check it out at such a low price.
I'm scared just to try it, even though I own it already (Potato Sack collection).
For you people who call yourself fans of horror games:
Amnesia.
In terms of horror, suspense, and general filling one's trousers with feces, it is to Resident Evil what a Bugatti Veyron is to a tricycle. With training wheels.
Its not unlike a sci-fi GTA. On Mars. Where you can blow the buildings up.
Its much better than expected and I never get tired of being able to deconstruct buildings with flair.
Normally, I take this as meaning one hates a game. This one, I'm taking a much different way. And I respect it.

You have to play the tower defense game at least once.
I never had to play it again, though.

Dammit! I feel so dumb. I had Bastion (and some other games) from the Humble Bundle V, but I never activated them on Steam. Then I just bought Bastion last night. =P
Oh well, I'll give the games to my brother.

Same here. I actually uninstalled it. The idea that I can't stand my ground and defend myself stinks. I wish I could have gifted one of my copies but I couldn't gift the one that came with the last humble bundle. I'll never beat it.

Rage is damn tempting at $10. I think I'm gonna byte on this one. What say ye SteamGAF?
Got real caught up with the first 10 hours of it. A less over the top atmosphere than Borderlands, but with better combat.
After than, interest died off as the game got repetitive. Still, a decent pick for $10.

You are absolutely right. But I've been missing it for my RTS itch and its a good sale to its normal price regardless.

Was Tiny Bang 75% off since the start? If so I'll wait on it until the last day.
