When will DayZ be standalone though? By the time it is Arma 3 will be out and a new DayZ might be being made.

There is talk that DayZ in Arma 3 could be separate DLC or possibly bundled with it, think I heard this from the PC Gamer guys on the latest podcast.

I asked Rocket at Rezzed about the engine and he was fairly adamant he was sticking with ARMA II.

In other news, can't decide whether to buy New Vegas or not, never finished Fallout 3 due to system issues and I may just be buying it because it's cheap and not play it properly. First world problems eh?

should we expect max Payne 3 come to down 10 or less quid?

powlesY · 16 Jul 2012 at 17:03

I don't know the best way to get DayZ now. I just want to play it.

Get Combined Ops from Bohemia directly then, 14.99 for the Steam key.

No it's already been on daily deal at £15, I very much doubt it will go lower than that.

Hope not, cos I already bought it

I cant see it though, its simply too new and I thought the price I paid (14.99) was pretty good considering how recently it was released.

Arma 2:CO might come down to a maximum of 40% off I reckon. It's been one of the top sellers for weeks but maybe it won't because people are purchasing it like hotcakes regardless.

youdsy · 16 Jul 2012 at 17:09

when was max payne 3 15 quid?

I would think they would as they would sell a butt-ton of copies easily 50k copies in a day

Can't see it there, only Rise of the Samurai. This is the one I want and it is currently 50% off. http://store.steampowered.com/app/201271/

strumpusplunket said:
^^ Yeah, I got all excited about FOTS for 75% off, too...

Ahh sorry guys, thought you meant just DLC hence me reading it wrong.

The Fall of the Samurai is a standalone game that was recently released so unlikely to be discounted further, although as always wait until the last day.

ScarySquirrel · 16 Jul 2012 at 17:18

Total War: SHOGUN 2 worth it for £7?

It's not the type of game I'd normally play but it looks like it could be relatively interesting.

NP. I made the same mistake myself for a split second when I followed your link.

(Only to be followed by crushing disappointment...

It has been down more than that in the last sale -50% off according to Steam prices but what with DayZ they may not bother discounting it further as they will sell regardless as you correctly mention.

50,000 copies a day?! Not likely...

Absolutely yes. Get Fall of the Samurai too if you see it on offer at any point, fantastic game.
