Have they chopped a couple of days off the sale?

On the list of achievements, there are now only two new days, Dec 30 and Dec 31 left to reveal. I could have sworn when the sale started, there was a Jan 1 and Jan 2 there as well....

I bagged mafia II and SPAZ. Might start ignoring the sale from hereon in, can't afford to spend this much money

Turambar · 29 Dec 2011 at 19:10

Hmm, attempt Binding of Isaac objective or avoid rage?

chid76 · 29 Dec 2011 at 19:11

Shogun 2 and all the DLC for me today. Am hoping it's a little easier to get into than the empire games.

Thinking of buying L4D2 but I already have killing floor.

They are the same sort of games right ?

They are yes but L4D2 is far superior IMHO. It's excellent, even better when you have a decent bunch of people all with mics.

I've kinda been put off L4D due to not being able to save your game

Lol...What?! :rolleyes:

It is Co-Op game that has a solo mode, it's best played online.

You can play through an entire story in something like 40 minutes anyway though, what exactly are you worried about being able to save?

Dungeon Seige III Worth getting ?

Is L4D2 multiplayer only or is there a single-player campaign? Sorry for the daft question but I've been out of gaming for a very long time.

The review on gametrailers.com makes me think that it has SP. If so, how many hours is the campaign?

Yes if you forget the previous DS stuff. Expected it to be rubbish but really enjoying it with a pad.

SP is just playing through the game with bots instead of with friends.

It's enjoyable enough but the came is really meant to be played with real people online for most enjoyment.

For the price it is, it's worth a play through in SP if that's all you're interested in but MP is where the real fun lies.

Yeah there is SP. It is a reasonable length. The MP is just using the same maps anyway (the campaign mode on MP is just SP but co-op).

Its all about the multiplayer to be honest

It's not a single campaign as such. There's sets of levels that make up small campaigns that can last from 30-40 minutes upward generally.

You can play on your lonesome with bots, but it was designed as a co-op game. You'll get far more out of it playing with friends.

You can pick to start from whichever level you want at any point anyway. I think you've misunderstood the kind of game it is, there's no big SP campaign.
