Picked the Brothers in Arms collection up in a sale ages and ages ago on Steam - STILL haven't gotten around to playing them!

that doesn't really give us any reason to buy or not to buy tho?

Hell's Highway is an excellent tactical cover shooter. I never got round to finishing it but enjoyed every minute of what I played, the graphics, physics (limbs flying all over the place) and story are awesome too.

Found a few deals at The Game Collection:-

Kane & Lynch 2 - £2.99 http://www.thegamecollection.net/kane-lynch-2-dog-days-pc-p-3786.html

Mercenaries 2 - £1.99 http://www.thegamecollection.net/mercenaries-2-world-in-flames-pc-dvd-p-3065.html

Section 8 - £2.99 http://www.thegamecollection.net/section-8-pc-p-4499.html?keywords=section 8

Rise of the Argonauts - £1.99 http://www.thegamecollection.net/rise-of-the-argonauts-pc-p-3583.html

Played K&L 2 and Mercenaries 2... hated K&L personally, Mercenaries 2 was good from the hour I played of it but is a pretty terrible port performance wise, worth a go for £2 though

Anyone remember if Brothers in Arms Earned in Blood has Starforce?
I think it used to, but don't know if Steam version still has it...

 

[gropingmantis]

Hmm already got Brothers in Arms, I remember them being pretty good but doubt I'd play through them again.

C'mon AC day.

Would just like to say a great big thank you to all the nice people who contribute to this thread

Even if I am spending money on (good) games that I will never get to actually play...

 

[Pestilence]

Hold off - that discount u see is the 33% thats on every Ubisoft Title for the entire week. We may yet get a Heroes day with up to 75%. If by Sunday it hasn't appeared then nab it at the 33% off

Excellent. Thanks buddy.

Batman, Stalker and Napoleon seem like 3 good games for a tenner? But am struggling to find any more amongst them

Just bought these three myself. Had a look through the rest, but everything else seemed a bit meh.

Star trek online is very cheap, is it likely to be free to play any time in the near future or ever? I guess it may just get less and less active anyway? Not sure if it's worth a punt, but I don't have time to play it in the next month.

 

[Dickyb0b]

is there any people still playing farcry mp?

 

[phatboy]

[Komedy]

[Shamikebab]

Oooh thanks, I've been waiting for that to get cheap

The population is reasonably low, but also very stable these days.

I don't see it going F2P in the near future. In all honest, it is only 2.37! That is a lot of content for a months play.

Ditto.


This week's Steam Ubisooft sale has been pretty disappointing. Hopefully it'll pick up today.
