Anyone found a content server that actually... works?

I downloaded TDU2 this morning fine, maxed out my connection (3.4MB/s).

Happens sometimes. Occasionally they even put up the wrong price while putting the deals up. Not worth 7.49 tbh, only a fiver or less

I've got TDU2 on 360 with DLC and i'm really enjoying it. I don't think it is too bad. Although it could have been so much better and had so much potential

Got Shogun 2, The Tiny Bang Story, and Dwarfs!? ...Roll on the next round!

Never bought the Valve pack, but then I've already got 17 of the 24 separately

I played and love the Plants vs Zombies demo but am I right in thinking that £5 is still too much for it?

 

[gronf]

^Well, I've played it for over 70hrs according to my Steam stats, so I'm sure you can guess what I'd say

 

[King Damager]

Having no issues dling, a bit slow (850kb/s) but could be worse....

Also bought the Valve pack, because surprisingly have none (yes none) of the games so far... Been eyeing up Portal 1+2 for a while now, and simply couldn't reject them with all the other stuff thrown in xD

On the London Server?

It's better now than it was earlier for me, but it's been pretty patchy all morning.

i only had a retail copy of left for dead out of the valve pack, and what is annoying is i installed it on monday! oh well 24 new games

For those who are buying MoH for that price. You can't complain. Single player is short. MP isn't too bad. Takes abit of time to get use to it.
It's one of those you can get peed of very easily.

SP is horrible. I enjoyed Duke Nukem Forever a lot more than MoH SP. MP is a different story though. The previous MoH Airborne is better SP wise.

is beat trip runner any good?

I haven't played it myself and am not likely to, but if you search on youtube there are some reviews worth looking at.

Edit : I'm thinking of Bit trip.

 

[Moothead2]

Nooooo! I accidentally paused my dl of the gta iv episodes an hour and half ago, something I cant afford on 1mb/s dl speeds.

Any hidden gems in the sale?

I second this, the damn launcher is stuck updating, restarting moves it up a bit, usually by 1%.

Don't think it downloads anything at all

 

[Moothead2]

Try Manchester. I was fluctuation between 600 and 900KB/s with London and now I'm getting a constant 1.0/1.1 MB/s.

I've downloaded the game already, no problems with that, it's just the TDU 2 Launcher that is causing troubles.

EDIT: turns out the Virgin SuperHub was the cause with it's annoying firewall.

If anyone's interested the Company of Heroes games are on sale at the moment!

Gold pack (CoH and Opposing Fronts) for £10. Well worth buying if you like RTS, or WW2 games.

Tales of Valour can be had for £6.69, but bizzarely the pack of all 3 is more expensive than buying them separately!

Ah right, my bad . Glad you got it working.

Witcher 2, Recettear and Oblivion Deluxe bought.

Don't think Witcher 2 will be discounted more than that. Need to buy the first one still so hopefully at 6pm it'll be in the daily for 75%.
