Have you got / played Killing Floor?

How can you not like mindless massacring of zombies?

gronf · 7 Jul 2011 at 16:21

Already got loads they've put up, many I've had for ages, including KF yeah.

I do have a few I'm still to play, but always up for more!

Pestilence · 7 Jul 2011 at 16:21

Everyone on this planet needs to get Killing Floor at that price.

anuraj · 7 Jul 2011 at 16:25

Should I get the thq hit pack and then be disallowed games till December?

gropingmantis · 7 Jul 2011 at 16:26

Wow just been playing killing floor to get the ticket. It is awesome. Way more brutal than L4D and you are British pip-pip. Everyone go buy this its awesome.

I've got LFD1 & 2 (among many others!) still to play in my library. Is Killing Floor really worth it over Left for Dead? At current rate I may be drawing my pension before I have the chance to play it...

I thought you'd given up bugging your parents..?

Nothing but THQ games until December? Pass.

Given the games coming out between September and then, maybe not, unless you are good at waiting. Also yeah the DoW games will last you a good while, but they are all very similar and you might just get bored of them (the genre not the games) and want something else.

Very different sort of game as its waved based and you have to earn money to buy your weapons and ammunition. Definitely worth it though as its seriously good fun online.

Frenzy · 7 Jul 2011 at 16:57

Yeah i wouldnt buy a pack anuraj, if anything Id get something multiplayer wise to tide you over untill the better games hit at the end of the year.

anuraj · 7 Jul 2011 at 17:00

I already have BFBC2 witch I haven't been able to appreciate because of my laptop.

Get the id pack and brush up on your gaming history. And all the games should run well on your laptop.

Getting a gaming pc in 8 days metro should be a good test and some of the other games look good.

Nonetheless Doom, Wolfenstein, Quake et al are classics of gaming.

What spec and at what res? Metro 2033 is an insanely demanding title

CaptainRAVE · 7 Jul 2011 at 17:10

Decided against Killing Floor, have too many games now. Wonder what will be on offer tonight?

Shame they took down the video sharing ticket.

Teaf · 7 Jul 2011 at 17:13

Hoping for some deals on the Dead Space games/pack, missed them last time around (Christmas I think it was).

So you're getting a new PC shortly, but want to buy a pack containing mostly oldish games that means you won't be allowed to buy any new games for another six months...?

Why not just buy a handful of cheap great games to tide you over, and buy some more later in the year, rather than blow it all on one bundle that's mostly the same kind of game...
