Agree, fun little game. I just tried to get the steam summer sale achievement in it and although I seriously owned the level, the achievement didn't trigger. Globally 0% have it as well, so it can't be working properly yet. Same with the joining the steam sale group which also gives you a ticket, also appears not to be working properly :S

I managed to get the ticket, took a few attempts at joining though!

Tempted go for Daggerdale for some hack n slash, anyone played that one yet?

I grabbed MOH and Back to the future... cart is working fine for me.

I was hoping to see IL-2 Cliffs of Dover on offer during the sale, it's exempt from the publisher catalogue though so I was looking elsewhere, can anyone confirm if it is a steamworks game?

I really want it on steam but have found it elsewhere for £18 so if it registers on steam I will pick it up from there instead.

Going to buy the standard edition of Oblivion...when it lets me!

According to this it is Steamworks, I think...

It might be on the featured deals later on.

Hell I hope so, I am obviously going to wait it out, but assassins creed brotherhood was exempt during the easter sale and now it's not.

I am just thinking worst case as I really want to pick this game up within the week.

Cheers, this really clears things up. I should have looked at this, I even have it bookmarked.

gonna pump out as many hours as possible over summer just to get ready for skyrim

Moothead2 · 30 Jun 2011 at 20:26

My current wishlist in Morrowind, Arkham Asylum and Fallout:NV. Any other I should keep an eye on to see if they're cheaper later on?

What's the DLC like?

Isn't it obsolete when you're going to mod the game anyway?

It shows up now but that game achievement still hasnt triggered

Bought MOH, Oblivion GOTY deluxe and alien breed trilogy so far. Had all of them on my wish list for a very long time so a very good day for me lol.

Frenzy · 30 Jun 2011 at 20:34

Im struggling to find games to add to my wishlist... I wish bf3 was on there, along with skyrim

Im pretty sure the dlc is big, http://www.elderscrolls.com/oblivion/dlc/ shivering isles adds 30 hours of gameplay apparently. I havent played them yet I got busy modding the game for 2 days then I got distracted by another game I bought

Murray · 30 Jun 2011 at 20:36

oblivion GOTY Deluxe bought.

Klo · 30 Jun 2011 at 20:37

Not sure about Test Drive Unlimited 2. Worth it for a fiver? I do enjoy racing games, but only play them on my keyboard.
