Another Steam Holiday sale - Games

[QUOTE=Aurain;19296332]Quick Question: Jade Empire and Windows 7: Does it work or is it a disaster?[/QUOTE] I bought it yesterday and played it last night. It runs very well.

I bought Osmos, was worth that small amount of money. Really nice graphics and soothing music.

There are a bunch of games I want to get I.E. Fallout 3 GOTY, but I'm scared I might miss the sale on it if it ever comes, meaning I'll have to wait till Jan 3rd to buy anything... I'll have less than a day to play it fully before the holidays are over.

Pretty meh deals. CoD5 interesting though but i dont know if i trust my computer to run it

Osmos is REALLY REALLY good I hear. And I've never play Max Payne before, it's on the list of things to play before I die. Problem is I still want to get chaos theory before anything else so :v: And I'm poor.

Osmos is shit. All you do is engulf other blobs for hours on end. They try and mix it up a bit by giving you the power to speed up or slow down time. It's fucking crap. Glad I never bought it. Sucks to be my friend though, who lost out on £10.

I wish GTA4 was on sale again, now that I have the money its not :frown:

[QUOTE=Orange-Soda;19302912]Pretty meh deals. CoD5 interesting though but i dont know if i trust my computer to run it[/QUOTE] It runs laggy on mine in single player and I have 2.244ghz dual core, 2gb ram + 8600gt 512mb vram. But runs perfect in multiplayer :S

i bought the max payne bundle, hopefully these games will be good

[QUOTE=johan svensk;19304000]i bought the max payne bundle, hopefully these games will be good[/QUOTE] Oh they are

Just bought the Max Payne Bundle. 3.49? You can't beat that! I was thinking of getting the Silent Hunter Bundle. Can anyone attest to its worthiness?

Well today's deals aren't too bad. I'd get Max Payne but I have had them for PS2 for years.

Still no Fallout 3, dammit. is that... is that a box | | V

[QUOTE=windwakr;19308145]Wow, I wasn't really expecting much from [url=http://store.steampowered.com/app/33100/]Alien Shooter[/url], but it's a pretty good game for only costing $1.24. I'll probably pick up [url=http://store.steampowered.com/app/33130]Zombie Shooter[/url] later.[/QUOTE] I bought the Shooter bundle, which contains all of them but Zombie Shooter 2.

Anyone have anything to say about Rainbow Six Vegas 2? It looks surprisingly cheap but I haven't heard much about the series. Ahh, the joys of impulse buying.

Vegas 2 is awesome how dare you. I havn't played vegas 1 though, and I have the non-steam version so who knows.

Vegas 2 needs a really good computer to run at a decent frame rate to enjoy it, get Vegas 1, its the same game but less demanding.

If Garry's Mod was on sale some nice person would probably buy it for me... Guess i'll just wait for it to go on sale.

[QUOTE=Thom12255;19309164]Vegas 2 needs a really good computer to run at a decent frame rate to enjoy it, get Vegas 1, its the same game but less demanding.[/QUOTE] I'm playing it on my 7100 / Centrino laptop. I am seriously enjoying it, running at the lowest possible settings. This game is awesome.

Is Titan Quest any good?

[QUOTE=windwakr;19310307]I tried the demo out and it seems pretty good. I'm holding out to see if it goes on a front page sale before I buy it though. But I'm not very patient, if it's not on sale tomorrow I'll just buy it. It has to be worth at least the $10 it's on sale for now.[/QUOTE] Considering it's already 50% off, I doubt it'll go on the front page.

[QUOTE=FPChris;19309349]If Garry's Mod was on sale some nice person would probably buy it for me... Guess i'll just wait for it to go on sale.[/QUOTE] It's £4.49, do you really that it is going to be reduced that much more?

Dawn of War II any good? I'm afraid to buy it because of it's nerdiness.

[QUOTE=TizzYcho;19311379]Dawn of War II any good? I'm afraid to buy it because of it's nerdiness.[/QUOTE] You have over 1000 posts on a forum originally created for discussion about a mod for a game in which you play as a theoretical physicist who hits aliens with a crowbar, and yet you're worried about buying a game because it might make you look nerdy? And to answer your question, yeah it's pretty good. It's very similar to Company of Heroes in terms of interface and gameplay, which I found to be a more enjoyable game. So if you don't mind a WW2 setting and you don't already have it, get CoH instead.

[QUOTE=Thom12255;19301981]Civ 4 complete pack is £.4.99 on play.com. STEAM needs to stop over pricing games like this.[/QUOTE] I agree although Steam does provide the facility to download the game again in future as many times as you want without having to hunt down the disc [I]Edit[/I] The one on Play.com [B]does NOT include[/B] Sid Meier's Civilization IV: Colonization (latest expansion)

Tbh, I suppose it's how he views what games he likes I guess.

I bought Max Payne 2.

I'm not sure if anyone cares but here is a list of everything I have bought from the sale: ID Super pack. Killing Floor. The Orange Box. Lucas Arts Adventure Pack. And I was also given the gift of Alpha Prime by some nice guy on Facepunch.
