Darkness 2 for $2.79. Yay or nay?

I thought it was a decent enough game. Yay it up.

Darkness 2 for $2.79. Yay or nay?

....yay?

 

[Talyn]

I pulled the trigger and I am installing it right now - an MMO that doesn't require grinding and has interesting story sounds right up my tree...I just wish it had some sort of Steam achievements or something (same reason I am skipping on Far Cry 3 for the 360 version - bah on achievement haters)

It has tons of achievements, they're just not integrated into Steam.

 

[Basileus777]

I really regret passing up on the GMG Sleeping Dogs deal. Any chance I can get the game at a good price anytime soon?

People at CAG are reporting that the bonuses for TSW are still working right now, all you need to do is register the key and create an account on the website to unlock them. Just in case anyone was interested.

[Pachterballs]

is deus ex human revolution and binding of issac worth getting?

 

[Leon Belmont]

is deus ex human revolution and binding of issac worth getting?

Yes, both worth it!

 

[Rickenslacker]

is deus ex human revolution and binding of issac worth getting?

Yes and yes.

 

[JaseC]

Don't forget to also purchase The Missing Link DLC, too.

 

[toddhunter]

is deus ex human revolution and binding of issac worth getting?

binding of issac did nothing for me so I would vote no. However it is cheap enough and popular enough that it really seems worth a go.

The first couple of hours of Deus ex to me was some of the best gaming this generation. After that point it got really boring and repetitive to me (AAA itis at it's finest) but that still means it is worth grabbing as well. The DLC was pretty good after a break.

Darkness 2 for $2.79. Yay or nay?

I liked it a lot. Absolute yay for that price.

DX:HR is pretty good, nowhere near the first one, but still. The DLC is also really cool, reminded me a lot of Escape from Butcher's Bay for some reason, it's great.

The Binding of Isaac just wasn't for me.

Seriously guys buy the Mumbojumbo bundle. 23 Really freaking addictive games for $27

7 Wonders II, Luxor Amun Rising, Luxor 2, Luxor 3, Reaxxion, Little Farm, Luxor, Discovery! A Seek and Find Adventure, Samantha Swift and the Hidden Roses of Athena, 7 Wonders: Treasures of Seven, Luxor: Quest for the Afterlife , Samantha Swift and the Golden Touch, LUXOR: Mah Jong, Chainz 2: Relinked, Midnight Mysteries, Zombie Bowl-o-Rama, Luxor: 5th Passage, Glowfish, Pickers, Luxor Evolved, Midnight Mysteries 2: Salem Witch Trials, Midnight Mysteries 3: Devil on the Mississippi, Midnight Mysteries 4: Haunted Houdini

Thats a bunch of 7 wonders which are like bejeweled meets resource farming, citybuilder. A bunch of mystery adventure point clicks. Some fun stuff like mah jong, and a bunch of takes on stuff like bejeweled, match 3 games, breakout games, and tube combination puzzlers.

Im really shocked at how cool Reaxxion is looking as a game.

Check out the Reaxxion trailer and consider getting it if nothing else

Really happy with how my final purchase has shaped up so far. Luxor Ancient Aliens has been a blast so far and I really digging how I now have about any pickup up,play, and put away quick game type I could want in between computer work at home. I dont have as much time for large time sinks in my gaming due to work, and this has been one of the best bundles I've gotten since the Telltale Bundle awhile back.

Buy it. If nothing else cherry pick the games on sale right now from it. Luxor Ancient Aliens, Reaxxion, and Chainz 2 Relinked seem to be the coolest so far that I've gone over.

I am buying the bundle of games with Samantha Swift.

Can't wait until tomorrow for the discount.

 

[Dunlop]

So The Secret World for 14 bucks, yay or nay?

Loving the game so far, great story. It is rough around the edges for some aspects but for $14 it is a steal.

Where is it on sale atm? My buddy wants to pick it up and I still see it for $22 on Steam

 

[mr_toa]

Can only - so far - vouch for Deus Ex: HR, it's bloody fantastic!

Amazon

 

[Relax.MX]

I really like Deus Ex is one of my top 5 of 2011 but with the DLC I feel like soulless experience maybe I'm the only one

Any chance of The Walking Dead sale even lower on amazon?

It's $12.99 after coupon.

And as much as it pains me, not Steam-redeemable.

 

[1-D_FTW]

How much was 007 Legends? If it needed to be pulled, you'd think they would have blown the price out.

 

[ShinobiFist]

And as much as it pains me, not Steam-redeemable.

Is it Origins at least?

 

[wazoo]

no, it is Activision. the games were -25%

 

[onlyindreams]

is Anna worth $3?

 

[JaseC]

Activision did just that with Wolf09 so it's strange that no such approach was taken with the 007 titles. A deep discount would've set off alarm bells.

 

[TheNamelessOne]

Where do you find it for that price?

 

[28 Posts Later]

is Anna worth $3?

Depends if you like unintuitive and illogical puzzles.

Spoiler

No, it's terrible

 

[toddhunter]

I seem to recall that is the game where you first open the door to the house by burning some squirrels whilst playing the ukulele with your feet and riding a unicycle...except the unicycle has to be constructed first out of mud from the creek bed.

It is full of stuff like that right?

 

[onlyindreams]

eh, if the story is good I'll just use gamefaqs. is it?

 

[28 Posts Later]

The plot is as illogical as the puzzles. The only thing the game has in its favor is atmosphere.

It is full of stuff like that right?

Yes, that's the sort of logic the game requires.

 

[masterkajo]

Where do you find it for that price?

Should be that price tomorrow on amazon if you have a $5 voucher for editor's choice games.

 

[pock3tmonster]

I just installed Dark Souls. Thanks Amazon! GFWL was not the nightmare I was expecting, the controls on the other hand... I'm not sure I want to return to the game for a second attempt, at least not without a USB controller. I feel for those who don't have access to one. :/

 

[RobbieH]

For anyone considering Anna it's 1.75 on GMG.

 

[Corky]

Its not that price until tomorrow is it? $9.99 with voucher here.

Where are we talking about? I'd love Darkness to for 3 bucks.

 

[onlyindreams]

lol you post this 30 seconds after I buy it from steam. oh well.

Editor's choice change daily on Amazon?

 

[1-D_FTW]

I know I would have bought. Did the same thing for Wolf09 and Outrun (2.00).

 

[mrgone]

Some of the prices will change, and more games will supposedly be added.

 

[Visualante2]

Activision digital distribution platform incoming.

 

[Delusibeta]

Activision digital distribution platform incoming.

I'll be happy to bet that it'll be Battle.net.

 

[TheNamelessOne]

Oh, I guess it's regionlocked then :'(

Why should it? None of the games I've bought on Amazon have been region locked. Or does it have some weird DRM?

 

[Wanace]

I purchased Bioshock 2 and Dark Souls from Amazon but I can't get them to activate on Steam OR on GFWL. I was given a 25 digit code on the Amazon download page but they don't work, just give me an invalid code error.

Dark Souls doesn't even have a "download" link next to it in Amazon so I can't get it directly from there.

What am I doing wrong?

 

[JaseC]

Oh, I guess it's regionlocked then :'(

Not to my knowledge, but even if it is, you can just use Spotflux to activate it.

Why should it? None of the games I've bought on Amazon have been region locked. Or does it have some weird DRM?

Some keys are; for instance, Inversion and Dead Island GoTY.

Like JaseC said, Dead Island for one.

Problem is I think VPN-shenanigans on steam for regional bypass is a thing of the past. Now you will need to use VPN each time you start a game.

Still not really an issue

 

[Corky]

Still not really an issue

In what way? Because the thought of having to run an external software every single time I want to try a specific game sounds like a hassle I can do without
