[QUOTE=SirJon;51107914]Ahh I remeber all those schooldays spent playing civilization[/QUOTE] I remember playing Quake 2 via LAN with classmates, when we've finished our lesson in computer class before the bell rang. Some of them didn't even want me to join, because I was good at it.
[QUOTE=Redcoat893;51107915]It was time well spent wasn't it![/QUOTE] I now have "Advanced experience at leading a superpower" on my cv
VtM - Bloodlines is absolutely worth the current price it's at, fantastic game all around
X3 Terran Conflict and Albion Prelude for $20 is a great deal if you want a Freelancer meets EvE online. So long as you don't mind the UI. The main problem is there's just SO MUCH you can do it's hard to make it user friendly
I didn't know Outlaws was on GOG, let alone that it's $1.50 right now. Grabbed it right away.

Mid semester break ends next week here.
Every time i see one of these sales, I'm reminded of how poor i am. Then i remember how i spent a ton of money on previous sales and i have a ton of games to complete.
[QUOTE=mchapra;51107955]VtM - Bloodlines is absolutely worth the current price it's at, fantastic game all around[/QUOTE] Absolutely great if you like games like Deus Ex. FPS with heavy RPG elements? Check. Hub worlds for use in-between missions to hunt for items and complete quests for NPCs? Check. Story centered around an ancient shadowy conspiracy that you find yourself in the center of? Check. Perpetual night? Check.

Don't buy Banner Saga/2 on gog. [url]https://www.gog.com/mix/games_that_treat_gog_customers_as_second_class_citizens[/url] 1. [QUOTE]fronzelneekburm says: Version 2.28.11 was released on Steam some time ago with no word on the patch being brought here.[/QUOTE] 2. [QUOTE]fronzelneekburm says: Devs were EXTREMELY reluctant to launch this game here (despite promises to the contrary to kickstarter backers). The devs seem rather unhappy about keeping their gog build up to date, because 'it costs money to push updates on GOG'[/QUOTE]

Luckily after installing the GOG version you have the normal patched one and the legacy version which is pure vanilla.

Keep that in mind, [I]muhfuggas[/I] :v: [hd]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCQFCJs6xv4[/hd] [editline]27th September 2016[/editline] I'm hardly a Hip-hop guy, but man... that game *needs* to be played with Cypress Hill in the background. They've done an amazing job.
