Yar, I got me the xpac, it's pretty cheap and I can play it later on when i got more time to dedicate to that game (it's not the game you can play 5 minutes or so)

Hmmm, should I get both of them?

USD15 for two of 'em seems to be very reasonable.

Or should I wait for further discounts.

Well, they have a trial dispo if I am not wrong so you might want to test it out first, it's quite special strategy game, quite far from normal RTS or even Sins, it's a bit of its one of its kind animal

Since it's week long, I'll see what's on offer during the weekend to make a decision.

Should be interesting because I sorta like Sins to some extent.

It's quite far from Sins really in the mechanisms, I would really say it's worth trying though.

Just not kind of game for anyone though.

I would say it's very SupCom like(the first supcom). ANd Zenith Remnant adds a lot to the game. New AI types, races, a merchant, ancient golems, you can find a trial for Zenith Remnant(either at the official site or in the game you purchase) if you want to see if the xpac content is worth it.

PS : If anyone gets this....WE NEED to try coop. SO please post here or PM me.

I'll wait for this weekend deal to make a decision.

Seems like an interesting game...I was hoping that Steam might have bundle the 2 together so there's even more discount...

It's a 2D game with 3D backgrounds. I'm sure your comp will be able to play it. You can download the demo to try it. It's only 100mb.

Thing is, the game scale can go up to tens of thousands of units in each camps on bigger maps, so while the graphics are really not the issue, the simple amount of calculation can hog some lower systems.

But the guy making the game (yes, it's mostly done by one guy only) is improving performance pretty often, very good support for the game.

Frags: I am still pretty noob at it, I am still finishing the advanced tutorial, but could be willing to try out coop with someone more experienced to test it out.
But as usual I am in China so connectivity might be an issue, not sure how is the lag for that game

I like the amount of support the guy is doing for his baby, he is also pretty reactive for bugs/issues and really listen to the community

Small download around 100mb or so.

Looks very complex and need quite a bit of time to learn how to play.

A bit hard to type the CD-key in Steam.

For the key, you got the "Copy to Clipboard" option on the Steam menu, then just paste inside AI, works like a charm ^^

Actually something I forgot to say was that AI Wars allows you to use your cd key to use on the non steam version. Yes you can unlock the non steam demo with the cd key you get buying it from Steam. Not sure if you can have both versions running though.

That is indeed cool.

Probably can get run one game at the time.

Shouldn't be an issue.

However, AI War has Steam achievements.
