Frozen Synapse is pretty awesome. Too complex for my plebeian mind, though. :'(

cool breeze · « **Reply #2221 on:** July 04, 2011, 01:07:56 PM »

the fact that there is a doom pack means the id pack won't drop. I'm gonna finally buy it last day of the sale.

Shaka Khan · « **Reply #2222 on:** July 04, 2011, 01:12:26 PM »

Meh, not interested in any of those. Will get Frozen Synapse when it's cheaper, I'm a dumb blond these days, won't pay that much for puzzlers/strategy games. Someone sell me on Bully, I never completed the game and I have no idea how good the PC port was.

Shaka Khan · « **Reply #2223 on:** July 04, 2011, 01:17:32 PM »

Wait, Frozen Synapse is a two pack?! uh, that changes everything. Anyone want to partner up?

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #2224 on:** July 04, 2011, 01:18:09 PM »

i would but i already own it apparently. got it back when it was in beta i guess

I don't get why its sold in a double pack

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #2238 on:** July 04, 2011, 02:23:50 PM »

because it's really not fun playing by yourself.

Today's deals are a lot more appealing than this sale has been so far. New Vegas, Singularity, and BC all kind of interest me.

Hitler Stole My Potato · « **Reply #2241 on:** July 04, 2011, 03:58:22 PM »

Nothing for me today.

I started playing Dragon Age Origin again and it quickly sunk in just how much time I'm going to have to devote to this thing. I don't think I can do this again.

The Honest Hearts DLC is pretty cool.

reminds me of the Point Lookout dlc from FO3 but I would say that it's not as good as that. (which is my favorite piece of modern FO content thus far)

Bebpo · « **Reply #2246 on:** July 04, 2011, 09:18:17 PM »

I love NV, but both DLCs have felt lacking. Dead Money nailed the atmosphere and story, but the gameplay was not fun; HH has nice exploration but very little story. Waiting for a DLC that nails both.

Quote from: pilonv1 on July 04, 2011, 07:32:42 PM

Trine is wonderfully good. In the Top 3 XBLA/PSN games this gen for me. It's drop dead gorgeous, has great british voice acting with a fun little story, and the gameplay has lots of great puzzles and controls very well. Plus there's collectibles, yay.

Some people don't like physics platformers though, ymmv

pilonv1 · « **Reply #2247 on:** July 04, 2011, 10:03:45 PM »

I want to wait for all the DLC together so it's like a new game. This is making it hard.

Maybe I'll get the Civ 5 DLC instead. How much are the extras Civs for USAers?

Bebpo · « **Reply #2248 on:** July 04, 2011, 10:59:03 PM »

You're welcome.

Yeah, I had a great time with it over a few days. It definitely has its quirks, but the scoring system/art/unlockables are all really great.

cool breeze · « **Reply #2249 on:** July 04, 2011, 11:21:21 PM »

Frozen Synapse is great but I'm so bad.

The blast range of a grenade is huge. I played ~4 matches at once and two of them I lost because I underestimated the range. The other I lost because I still haven't figured out why the enemy shoots while my guy, aiming in that direction, doesn't. Or why my shots simply don't hit when he eventually returns fire.

Is there an iphone/pad version?

nvm, won two matches and tied another. One of the dudes I beat was had over 20 matches, the other had only victories until me. acceptable number of sacrifices.

Babylon: $3.34
Spain + Incas: $5.01

The maps are $2.00 except for the map pack which is $3.34.

They'll probably get a daily deal though.

pilonv1 · « **Reply #2251 on:** July 05, 2011, 02:30:57 AM »

Rorted, they're $6 for the double pack and $4 each otherwise. Damn you 55c.

Are Clear Sky and Call of Pripyat worth playing if I already have Shadow of Chernobyl with the Complete 2009 Overhaul mod?

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #2260 on:** July 05, 2011, 01:40:22 PM »

Clear Sky - no. game is garbage
Call of Pripyat - yes definitely.

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #2261 on:** July 05, 2011, 01:42:13 PM »

Alright then.

Edit: Maybe not. Apparently the daily deal for Call of Pripyat only applies if you already own one of the other STALKER games on Steam.

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #2262 on:** July 05, 2011, 01:43:37 PM »

I'm pretty sure the King Arthur sale was originally for 13.99 but now it's 4.50

so..... bought

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #2263 on:** July 05, 2011, 01:44:45 PM »

also bought the ai war game. dunno i guess

i bought the need for speed pack.

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #2265 on:** July 05, 2011, 01:56:31 PM »

Well, okay, I can buy Call of Pripyat for $7.50, as I only own the retail version of the first game. Or I can buy Clear Sky for $2.50 and then get Call of Pripyat for $3.74, which amounts to $6.24. So...yeah...

It won't let you send the $3.74 version as a gift. And I already bought both anyway, so whatever.

I'm getting LeChuck's Revenge for sure, but I'm wondering if it's also worth getting the first's remake. I bought it on the PS3 a long time ago, but I don't remember getting far into it. though I'm not sure whether it was because of the controls or if the remake was lacking the charm of the original (the fight sequence in Elaine's mansion in particular fell flat, imo)

Thoughts?
