I am also considering buying Dungeons or not.

Might wait for post-release reviews though, got burned few times with pre-order

40usd is ok price though so I might get tempted earlier smile.gif

Just wondering, say I pre order Brink from Steam, can I cancel my preorder like 3 days before the game release?
*
From what I read on Steam forums many times, Steam refund easily BEFORE release yes for pre-orders.

Once it's out though, you are out of luck smile.gif

Never tried it myself though so I cannot personally give my experience

nice or not oh this game?
king arthur saja is 2.99
whole pack is 11.99

It's like a TW in King's Arthur story.

Original game had some big flaws though in being super hard at time (enemies having lots of super powerful stacks of units) and archers being equipped with M-16 instead of normal bows.

But still it was enjoyable game, I bought the Saxons pack to see if the new campaign is better, and for 1,5usd it's dirt cheap

Metro 2033 is also Steamworks game.

Also, Retribution is coming out very soon. Might as well skip CR and DoW2,as Retribution is much better than CR and DoW2.
*
Metro is nice, short but good. But you need a good PC to make it run

As for DoW2 it really depends if you are interested in SP or not...
If yes then both DoW2 and CR for 12,5usd is good deal and can keep you busy for a long while.

If you only want the MP portion then yar, skip it

AI War is really huge now with all the Xpacs!!
One of the most impressive RTS I have played

Arcen has put an hold on the development for a bit while they focus on their next game but they added so much content for the past 3-4 months that I have not been able to keep up with the changes so it's good.

One of the most talented Dev out there in my opinion, listening to community a lot, producing patches every couple of days to balance and add stuff.... now if only some AAA company would take a clue and look at how they do certain things, especially the AI...

As for King Arthur I liked the campaign but I found it got frikking hard very fast making me use cheezy tactics like OP archers or OP magic.
The game was good for me but badly balanced

I liked the way it was handled in a "TW in fantasy world" though, the ambiance of Arthur's Tales was pretty ok rendered too.

Edit: As a note for Arcen: you can buy their key from anywhere and then enter it anywhere.

Like you can buy the key from their website directly and then enter it on Steam and/or Impulse

If you want to double check which DLC you have for which game, in the Library right click on it then go to "View Downloadable Content"

The expansions are standalones if I'm not mistaken. You don't need to download everything in the CIV 4 collection. Just download the expansion that you want to play. Beyond The Sword should be the latest expansion with features from other expansions included.

This, just download BTS and you are set.

Most mods install on BTS as well

Yes, I think I remember Deimos or other saying you need first to enable the online payment option for Maybank cards

That's the first Humble Bundle.

Revenge of the Titan was part of the 2nd Humble Bundle which is not as of yet integrated into Steam.

Gothic 3 also left me a bad taste in the mouth due to the bugs on release and these damn boars.

I will pass for this one even though the price is okey, too many games, too little time to spend on games that I consider "ok" at best

There was sort of a demo for DoW Retribution before the game was released.

Do the game demo get stuck in your game list (both community and actual list) after deleting it?
*
If you are talking about Retribution's beta, it didnt stay in your list, it simply disapeared on the day of release.

But now you can't get into beta obviously smile.gif

When will the Black Ops First Strike DLC -10% promo end?

Pretty sure it's a pre-order deal only, since it shows on Steam as coming out on the 26th, might not be much longer smile.gif

Easter date is not fixed since it depends of the lunar calendar (if I remember well...)

@ghostrecon: Do I have enough post count to say your posting is annoying?
Post in normal case, do not abuse other users and try to stay constructive, adverstising in multiple posts is forbidden etc.

If you have a service to propose, propose it, do not go "WAIT FEW MORE DAYS!!!" and be generally annoying really.

I docked 54 hours on GTA4 and didnt finish all the small games or optional missions.
Overall I like it even though at the end it got a bit confusin in the story really, hard time to remember the "why am I doing what this guy order me to do again?"

Felt a bit dragged out but still overall it's a great game.

ELFC is at 21hours played

The Lost was alright, I enjoyed the improved moto driving as I liked driving bikes in original but Nicco sucks at it smile.gif

Tony was ok too, some crazy shit missions in it (Yussuf is full of lulz too WHAT'S UP NIGGAS!~) biggrin.gif

I think it's amazing games for that price

Never had crashes too, Vista 64 bits too.

Performance can be an issue if your computer isnt good enough but I think stability has greatly improved after release due to patches.

I see the scene:

The attorney reading the will of JinXXX:

"And hereby I pass my Steam account to my son JinXXXX, password and ID being given privately later.

My pokemon card collection goes to my Daughter JinXXXY"

etc =D

Really depends what kind of games you like though.

Tropico is a good gestion/city builder game too.

Grand Age Rome was alright too in more or less the same style, kinda like old Caesar games
