How does it run on Win7? Does it look better than the PS3 version?

Dunno, didn't buy it to play it, bought it to sit in my Gift section incase someone wanted it later.

What is the current Communities Choice game? Says it's not valid in my region, yet prior to this we could vote on all three. I think I chose Two Worlds II.

The excellent Risen. Well worth it if you like your janky RPGs.

Very tempted by Pro Cycling Manager for $20

PCM 2009 is $9.99 and PCM 2008 is $4.99 is you're undecided.

Risen isn't there anymore for me, it's Borderlands. 20 odd minutes left and I can't decide.

lol, driver on sale hours after I buy it. me = retarded

Shaneus · Post by **Shaneus** » 22 Jul 2012 06:27 pm

It's been on sale two or three times during this sale. It would've been harder to buy it when it wasn't on sale than when it was.

You fucking idiot

Just finished Episode 2 (in time for F1!) and yes this shit is fantastic!!! I am going to run 2 saves for this I think making different choices the second time around. Ep 3 isn't due for around a month so I've got plenty of time to take another run through the first two eps.

Picked up rage and more importantly arma 2 for dayz...I've been watching sidestrifes videos of his dayz shit since the start but funny enough I enjoy it so much because it felt almost like some whacked out show

Played some Crusader Kings II last night, had the opportunity to marry my dead fathers ex-wife who was 50 years his junior. Which would make me the stepfather of my step brother who was born 45 years after me.

I've taken screengrabs of all my choices from the summary at the end. Once Ep 5 comes out and I've finished that then I will run through it again.

Did you know Telltale have confirmed they're going to do another season next year? The has been one of their most successful episodic releases yet.

Day Z is awesome. It also shows publishers that gamers want a bit more freedom. A lot of these big publishers will be showing a lot of interest in how a free mod can still bring in massive sales for a 2 yo game. ArmA II has been in the top 5 games on Steam in NZ since DayZ came out, even #1 for quite a few weeks.

). But at 91% off I cant resist

Can't believe it's cheaper for you than us for a change. Someone's going to get fired!

pilonv1 · Post by **pilonv1** » 23 Jul 2012 07:25 pm

Almost tempted to pick it up just to see how it runs on PC.

Excellent.

The Walking Dead has me intrigued. A pop up popped up after I finished a session of L4D2. Hadn't heard about it previously. Zombie games, movies seem so very old to me and yet this comes across looking fresh and interesting.

Candy Arse · Post by **Candy Arse** » 29 Aug 2012 08:09 pm

It's the best non-fighting game I've played this year.

Peppermint Lounge · Post by **Peppermint Lounge** » 29 Aug 2012 11:16 pm

Sold.

Has anyone tried Dear Esther?

mech · Post by **mech** » 30 Aug 2012 12:40 am

Yep. I didn't know what to expect, but I didn't like it. Like going to a dry museum.

t0mby · Post by **t0mby** » 30 Aug 2012 01:14 pm

I have a memory of purchasing Dear Esther, but I can't remember if it was for myself or to give away. Think it was only $2 and I snapped after hearing a lot of positives about it. Sounds like one of those under appreciated gems.

F for Fake · Post by **F for Fake** » 31 Aug 2012 10:36 am

Yeh I bought it when it was super cheap. Its got some amazing looking places (especially for the source engine). I... Didnt mind playing it, though i certainly didnt get the story. Ive been meaning to play through it again coz apparently u get different story pieces. Not bad for only a few bux but it didnt blow my mind unfortunately.

Deus Ex Human Revolution USD8.74 this weekend.

Shaneus · Post by **Shaneus** » 15 Sep 2012 02:21 am

That's a pretty fucking good deal... for a game I paid ~$30 for a few months ago but still haven't played yet.

Also, Faster Than Light is now out. $9 on GOG, should be on Steam soon (if not already).

Burnzoire · Post by **Burnzoire** » 16 Sep 2012 01:05 pm

Played FTL at a mates place last week and it's fantastic. Picking it up now from steam.
