Whole campaign (plus expansions) can be played co-op.
The game was pretty buggy back on the day it was launched, alot of co-op hiccups.
But even then I really enjoyed it.

you can do co-op or solo (although co-op will help you with vanilla, as it's a tad boring)

My haul:
Magicka
Torchlight
Dragon Age: Origins Ultimate
Trine
Deus Ex GOTY
S.T.A.L.K.E.R., all three
King's Bounty, all three
Blood Money
Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines

I was hoping for the Max Payne bundle to plummet in price, but I'm a patient man. My only regret is not getting Frozen Synapse. If it goes on daily deal tomorrow I'll pick it up in a heartbeat. I might do it anyway.

Where is Hitman: Contracts on Steam?

It's an attractive package but I'm just wondering what happened to Contracts.

There's a disagreement with an audio track, a single one. So it's not released on steam.

It's actually pretty easy. It's a bad game.

These sales must prove how much longevity PC games have.
The fact that we can now go back and play games at full HD res with added texture and gameplay mods must be great for the publishers and devs.
Considering how quickly most console games die out.
So many people buying deus ex this far after its release is great news.
The same can be said for current PC games that in a few years after a GPU upgrade can be fully utilized with full DX11 features that may be out of reach for PC gamers at the moment.

Gods.... I can't believe it, what a crappy last day of sales for me! None of my wishlist top 10 were daily sales : DoW 2 Gold, Darkspore, Brink, Settlers 7, First Templar, Hunted, Dungeon Siege 3, Daggerdale.

Seriously disappointed, expected at least 2 of them to show up today. =/
Really hope tomorrow won't be a stupid recap now. >______<

That sucks, about 7 of my top 10 were dailies.

So hitman... which ones best? Was always interested in the games. Looks like a great deal.
Click to expand...
IMO blood money is the best. 2.49 is a robbery.

The first 2 are good but they are kind of out of date.

Me too, I thought I'd bought it but Steam messed up on me and I missed out :(

Make sure the filter at the top of the Library is set to All Games.

Bah guess I'll wait for it to be cheaper then.

Probably going to go with Terraria + Blood Money today and Bloodlines + Rush tomorrow.

Instro said:
Hm should I go for DS2 or Bloodlines...decisions decisions.
Click to expand...

Bloodlines mostly likely wont be on sale again any time soon. DS2 will probably get cheaper over time.

Oh wow at the Sam & Max collection for about 12.49. Thoughts anyone?
Click to expand...
It‘s definitely worth it. Only downside is that you don‘t get the free physical copies with their great covers.


Anyways, GAF, please tell me why I should or shouldn‘ double dip on Portal. I know that it probably won‘t run as well as on my 360, but it‘s SO tempting D:

Yeah it's set to All Games but think it might have been my own fault for closing Steam after the PayPal authorisation as it looked like it froze.
Got emails so assumed everything went through fine.

Bought Blood Money, Terraria, and X3: TC. Feel like I made out like a bandit today.

Noticed someone was talking about Portal 1 not being on sale, but it's only like 7 bucks right now. Its just not a daily deal.

Very happy to see Dead Space 2 at £10, definitely buying that when I'm home later. I'm sure it was £30 earlier today and £15 would have been above the impulse buy point. This is a smart move, EA.

Considering the NWN pack, worth it? I have original NWN2 somewhere on disc, but none of the expansions so I assume it's worth £5 just for those and the convenience of having everything on Steam.

As for X3, is the Reunion demo a good indicator of what to expect in Terran Conflict? I heard TC is the game to go for, but it doesn't seem to have a demo. Only Reunion has a demo.

And there's still 48 hours of sale left. No doubt we'll hit 20k.

I can deal with that though. PC gaming wise I'm not so worried about cases because I don't have to constantly get a game out of a case to play it like I do on my 360 and PS3. The one exception will be BTTF when TellTale releases the disc for that. That's why I bought it through them on that one.

Bloodlines. At least DS2 will go on sale sooner than Bloodlines again, either on Steam or Origin.

Good point, and as KarmaCow mentioned, it would probably be cheaper the next time its on sale too. Bloodlines it is.
