GTA4 +episodes for £6.25 is a steal at that price! Shame i got already. Ballad of Gay Tony is so fun, you start off hanging around in a nightclub, i did my usual where i got drunk at the bar and then stumble into women 
I noticed since this days deals my download connection to steam servers have reduced, i'm only getting around 60kbps now!

I'll ask again... is bioshock 2 worth buying?
Not really imo, I am time poor so it never really got a look in. Maybe if you are really bored with lots of free time and no other decent games
Pretty much a rinse and repeat of the first one. If you liked the first one you might quite like this one to.

Yes and no. On it's own it's a good game but compared to the original it's more of a glorified expansion pack. To put it in movie terms it's like the sequel to Jurassic Park, entertaining and enjoyable enough but lacking the magic of the original.
I don't think the "experience" is as good as the first one but they improved the combat by letting you wield a weapon and have a plasmid active simultaneously. It's worth a purchase if you enjoyed BioShock 1 though.
Is Shattered Horizon any good? Just looking through to check any last minute buys and seen the Indie Heavy Hitters pack for £13.99
It does have tages, but you get the updated version of butcher bay as well, it's a lot of game for not a lot of money.
I thoroughly enjoyed playing through Butcher Bay again and really liked Dark Athena, albeit a bit more linear than BB. Lots of great action and top quality voice acting.

Yes it is. I listened to the poor reviews & didn't bother getting it on release, however Santa bought me it & I found it really enjoyable.
You just sort of continue where you left off in Bioshock 1, with the difficulty on hard its well worth a playthrough.
Buy it, superb games for £3!Stalker SOC and COP for £3wow
One of the best games I've ever played TBH, very atmospheric and top notch voice acting, and Riddick is such a cool character in this that you enjoy being in his shoes.
hmm just wonder if it is worth leaving it for now with all the games I have to play and waiting to see if it happens to come out on a Weekend deal even cheaper
Already own them, just amazed at the price

If you like first person shooters then Shattered Horizon gives this genre a new dimension as you are out in space & not limited to running around on the ground.
It's good fun jet-packing around, once you get used to it & you can always clamp onto a solid surface with your magnetic boots if you want to snipe, or get your bearings. You can also shut down your spacesuit once you've built up a bit of speed & drift along without thrusters looking like you've died, then reboot your spacesuit when you are behind the enemy & take them by surprise, or rather try to
Graphics are really good, so long as you have a decent machine, they also did an update a few mths back with new maps & new weapons.
The only thing I'm not sure of is how busy the servers are, will take a look & post back.
