Vegas 2 is pretty awesome. Only problem I have with it so far is that environments all seem brown and beige. Vegas 1 had cool casinos you fought in and Vegas night streets while Vegas 2 is more the Las Vegas no one cares about, like where people live (I mean, the one people care even less about).

The mechanics of Vegas 2 are great, and there's a good game in there. But you do most of your fighting in rec centers and whatnot. Lazy as shit, not as good as the first...offline anyway.

really? I didn't have any problems downloading Serious Sam HD. It went at 2 gigs and this was just three hours ago.

Yeah I just restarted steam (was getting 67k/s) and am now getting 700k/s. I know they have multiple servers, so some are probably getting hammered worse than others.

Jeez, this is making me want to run to Aki to buy a cheap gaming PC tower. These prices are ridiculous.

Holy crap, Armoured Princess for $9.99!? Too bad I already bought it, I want to buy it again for that price.

archie4208 · « **Reply #66 on:** December 25, 2009, 12:02:17 PM »

Red Faction: Guerrilla - $9.99
Resident Evil 5 - $24.99
Elf Bowling - $1.00
COGS - $1.99
Battlefield 2 - $7.59
King's Bounty: Armored Pricness - $9.99

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #67 on:** December 25, 2009, 12:04:06 PM »

I bought Elf Bowling. It seemed festive.

Akala · « **Reply #68 on:** December 25, 2009, 12:05:09 PM »

Is AP a standalone expansion? I have a non-steam copy of King's Bounty...

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #69 on:** December 25, 2009, 12:05:33 PM »

It's standalone.

Herr Mafflard · « **Reply #70 on:** December 25, 2009, 12:06:16 PM »

Red Faction is so brought!

Akala · « **Reply #71 on:** December 25, 2009, 12:06:30 PM »

sweet. thanks.

Bebpo · « **Reply #72 on:** December 25, 2009, 12:11:47 PM »

Should I get AP if I own Kings Bounty and haven't played that much yet? I don't want to start playing AP and find it better than the original and then I never play the original.
Might get Red Faction, maybe Battlefield for the lolz.

If you can deal with really REALLY hard puzzles, Cogs is a cool game at that price.

archie4208 · « **Reply #73 on:** December 25, 2009, 12:13:00 PM »

AP is like King's Bounty: Championship Edition. The core gameplay is the same, but there are a bunch of minor improvements that make it a more enjoyable experience.

That and a chick in scantily clad armor

Bebpo · « **Reply #74 on:** December 25, 2009, 12:15:39 PM »

So should I just get AP then and skip the original? It's not really a game where scenario is important?

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #75 on:** December 25, 2009, 12:17:45 PM »

Definitely getting Red Faction and BF2, even though I beat Red Faction on console. I am tempted by Armored Princess, but I still have the original game and I've hardly touched it

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #76 on:** December 25, 2009, 12:19:59 PM »

I was supposed to get RF2 on consoles today but didn't :'( I already own the pc version but it runs like shit for me :'(

Bought my mom elf bowling for a $1 though.

The story is irrelevant. I would suggest AP over the original.

Picked up Armored Princess today since I didn't get it for Christmas.

nabbed AP. aiming to play around June at the current rate.

I bought Unarmored Princess and Red Faction: Gorilla

Beezy · « **Reply #83 on:** December 25, 2009, 04:32:29 PM »

Gonna see if there's an Armored Princess demo. If it runs well on my laptop and I actually like it, it's bought.

Bebpo · « **Reply #84 on:** December 25, 2009, 05:14:23 PM »

Got Armored Princess & Red Faction.

I'm pretty sure Red Faction has GFWL and links achievements to your live account, which is cool.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #85 on:** December 25, 2009, 07:32:23 PM »

i'd buy the bf2 collection, but i'm certain i'd never play more than once or twice

pilonv1 · « **Reply #86 on:** December 25, 2009, 07:39:30 PM »

I got Armoured Princess, looking forward to trying it.

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #87 on:** December 25, 2009, 08:07:04 PM »

Does anyone know where I can dl the new title update for RF:G? GFWL doesn't want me to download it.

duckman2000 · « **Reply #88 on:** December 25, 2009, 10:45:17 PM »

Anyone else buy the Unreal pack? We should play some UT3.

Same here, but it'd almost be worth it to never have to worry about those 5 CDs or 500MB patches or the two Expansions that I have to download off of EA Download Manager.

what kind of game is The Void?

Bebpo · « **Reply #91 on:** December 26, 2009, 12:40:10 AM »

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/the-void-review

From what I hear it's an adventure game, dating game, horror game, puzzle game. Or something like that.

Here's a better review:

I got it because I just like weird games. Have not played it yet though.

a word on JustAdventure, even by genre enthusiast site standards, they are biiiiig time overraters. I'll trust your word on it more then them is all I'm saying.

I'd love tp play The Void, but the fact that you can paint yourself into a corner really easily is a major turn pff

oooh, Crysis/Warhead would fit perfectly. there's been an EA game in the sale the past few days, and they love putting Cysis up in these.

I've seen Bebpo that you bought Painkiller. Great choice as this is a tremendous old-school FPS game. Yes it is literally go here, find a red key for red door and repeat ad nauseum but the weapons, enemies, graphics AND PHYSICS will blow your fucking mind off. The STAKEGUN is one of the best weapons in a FPS game ever, right there with Gravity Gun.

Lacks intensity, though. Felt like an old-school game designed by committee or some shit.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #103 on:** December 26, 2009, 11:45:18 AM »

Sacred 2 for $5.

will probably buy Lumines, maybe that Star Wars pack

Hm, the Star Wars stuff is probably worth ten bucks. Or not. I wonder if I'd ever play those again. Meh on Dragon Age pricing

If I didn't just buy Jedi Academy, I would really consider that Star Wars pack. $10 for the Jedi Knight pack, Battlefront 2, Galaxy, Republic Commando, and Star Fighter.

People say it's a mistake since it says $25 on the page.

archie4208 · « **Reply #110 on:** December 26, 2009, 12:02:08 PM »

The Star Wars pack is showing up as $24.99 at the store page. I'm guessing the sale price hasn't been applied yet.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #111 on:** December 26, 2009, 12:03:07 PM »

I'll probably grab Lumines and Star Wars.

WTF, it just changed to $24.99. Screw you Steam.

cool breeze · « **Reply #112 on:** December 26, 2009, 12:03:58 PM »

How is Lumines on PC, btw? I have both PSP games, the PS2 game and the PS3 downloadable one. Anything special about the PC version?

archie4208 · « **Reply #113 on:** December 26, 2009, 12:04:05 PM »

Star Wars was a pricing mistake. It is $24.99.

EA is kinda shit during this Steam deal thing. Exception of Mirror's Edge on day one, they're deals have only been daily and have been crap. The Dragon Age deals aren't good.

I almost bought Torchlight for $10 earlier.

Gonna try the demo now to make sure it runs decently. Guess I'll get Lumines or Universe at War along with it.
