NEW STEAM DEALS!!!!

AWPC · 23 Dec 2009 at 12:33

Think the GTA4 deal is because they are about to offer the first DLC pack to PC users so need more of a userbase to make it economical. Still an amazing price though for the best version & if you have a decent PC it looks absolutely stunning :eek:

I didn't think you could gift anything other than Valve games?

You can buy any game on Steam as a gift and then gift it to someone. It's an option during checkout iirc.

I'm eyeing up the Titan Quest Gold pack at the moment, £4.99.

Someone convince me.

I got the THQ pack last time and found this to be one unknown but good game i would have missed out on if i had not got the pack, get it or get the whole pack if you like the THQ games, its worth it.

DD. You seem to be clued up on GTA4 so...

E8400 @ 3.0GHz
2GB of **** RAM
1GB 9800 GT
Vista 64bit
What do you reckon? Can I get it looking better than the 360 version but with a steady framerate?

Yep cause you have a 1GB gfx card and that makes a lot of difference as it can hold more textures in memory. You will get a little loading time because of 2GB ram but otherwise it should be much better looking than the 360.

Looking better certainly, due to the 1GB of video memory but I wouldn't like to make any promises about the framerate

I definitely think you should give it a try for a fiver though.

Will do, can't go wrong for five English pounds.

Now, to download on a 4MB connection = Paaain.

Same to you mate

And spare a thought for me last year when I downloaded it on a 2Mb connection - it took over 24 hours IIRC :eek:

Stuck at work, and desperate to take a look. Anyone else in the same boat.

So far thinking about:

Stalker Clear Sky

Tales of Valour
Jedi Knight
Indiana Jones
Defense Grid
Space Quest
Kings Quest
Mirrors Edge
Civ4 addons
Fallout with all DLC- I already have the original but no DLC.
R6 Vegas 2

BYE BYE MONIEZ!!

I think they have the latest Operation Flashpoint for £14.99, I don't know if it's any good though. Anyone got an opinion on this?

jellybeard999 · 23 Dec 2009 at 12:46

Shopping spree tonight I think. Do i view these on the "specials" tab in the store? I've been keeping my eye out but there's been just a couple of crappy games on there :s

i almost bought gta4 but then i came to my senses. i already own the retail dvd. i was just tempted because it meant i wouldn't have to get the disk out whenever i want to play.

That's why I bought Stalker. £1.39 is insane!

trickycurve · 23 Dec 2009 at 12:46

Just bought GTA IV.

fizzle-187 · 23 Dec 2009 at 12:46

Just bought GTAIV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was going to buy it for £10!!!!

Steam you are amazing!!

Shamikebab · 23 Dec 2009 at 12:50

Defense Grid is well worth it for anyone that hasn't got it.

Me I'm getting Stalker, can't resist at that price.
