*** PC Gaming - Daily Deals Thread ***

I didn't bother with Aliens Vs Predator as you can buy a boxed copy from amazon for just over £1 cheaper if i ever wanted it.

Did buy FM 2012 for £6.77, cant see boxed copies going that cheap for a while.

Should i go for Dead Island on steam for £7.99?...I'm hearing conflicting reports of its quality and it might go even cheaper soon.
 
Shogun II total war is going for £5 on Play.com. Free delivery as well :)
(Steam is like £20-30
And since its new copies, you can register them on steam and it will be forever tied to that account!

Your welcome ;D
 
you dont need a MEGA rig to run metro playably, i finished it on a 460gtx 768mb version on high settings and it looked really nice and played fine too. Great game though one of my favourites recently
 
I was pondering Metro 2033 on other sites but hadn't got around to it. Now it's on Steam for that price I have no excuse :). It will give me a shooty break from Skyrim.

2hrs 35mins to download :O I really want FTTc, grumble, grumble.

True... but Metro's graphics are so special IMO - the lighting is fantastic - it's not worth playing on turned down settings... save the experience when you can run it in all its glory (with the exception of advanced DoF - I don't notice an image quality difference, only a massive frame rate drop).

I started playing Metro on crossfire 5770s... think I had to keep it down to 1280x720 with no AA to get it anywhere near playable, even without Adv Dof... it was still not a great frame rate :(

I decided to stop and wait til there was something out that good play it properly... finally have the capability to play at 2560x1440 with everything on and AAA :)
