Righto, I'll send it to you when I get home. It's pretty addictive!

Just grabbed Lethal League, my only purchase of the sale.
I'm hoping the net code is good enough to play online. Hard to get a game of local these days.

I also picked up the Flashback 'reimagining'. It is fucking awful. The it hiccups while playing pre-rendered videos, it completely shits itself when I try to play "1993 edition" and about halfway through the initial level, it decided to change things up a bit and stop responding to certain controller inputs. Suddenly, the left stick could change the perspective from which the UI was displayed, and the only buttons that were doing anything were Back and Start.

Oh, and it made me install UPlay, so when I launch it from Steam, it loads up UPlay, so I have to launch it from there.

If this were a physical release, I'd take it back for a refund. Awful.

Your unbiased impressions, while certainly appreciated, were not nearly descriptive enough.

The game is so bad, I now have to buy a new modem because the current one has been permanently befouled by downloading the ones and zeroes that make up the game. I have to destroy the hard drive it was stored on, because even though it's now been deleted, the game will have left an indelible trace. I have to buy a new monitor, for similar reasons to the modem.

I also have to burn down Internode's data centre, as they will have a record of me downloading the game.

....I may even have to get a new Steam account.

I hadn't intended to buy much this sale but it has turned out pretty decent, picked up the following:

Satellite Reign (pick of the sales IMO), such an awesome Syndicate-like game - even has some of the original developers behind it.
Skyrim
Ryse
Hacknet
Grandia 2
Tales of the Borderlands
Raiden IV
Remember Me
XCOM

Still in my basket, not sure if I'll get:

Life is Strange
Undertale
Expand
Endless Collection (Endless Legend, Endless Space et al)

Much better than the last sale they had. Roll on Steam :up:
ANATHEMATIC ILLIMITED, TRANSFATAL EXPRESS, VIRAL INCORPORATED, INTERNATIONAL EPIDEMICS & MENSTRUAL MOTORCYCLES.

On the fence with Homeworld remastered. I hear they butchered the Original by using the HW2 engine. Probably not a big issue as it has been so long since I played it but why do we always cop hatchet jobs?

Homewood is great. Well worth it

Edit - Homeworld even, damn predictive.
