    Does anyone play TF2 and want a 'Vintage Buff Banner'? I want to unlock the today's trading achievement and figure I can do this by gifting this item to someone - let me know.

    Any thing worth picking up in today's deals?

    Train simulator 2012 eh - bet it does not have the patented - "We are sorry for any inconvience cause" from CIE in a total mock sincere when the train is 25m late.
    At least the achievement for Frozen Synpase was easy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,962 ✭✭✭GhostInTheRuins


    Bought From Dust. I hope it's good!

    Yeah.

    I think I'll pass on the all DLC bundle which is 229€, though :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,353 ✭✭✭Sasquatch76


    Everyone should play Frozen Synapse. For such a great game, I despair that not that many are playing it. Buy now and give the second copy to a friend!

    Edit: Although there are ten time as many players online at the moment, no doubt all doing the Steam achievement!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,752 ✭✭✭pablomakaveli


    Ended up buying Fate of the World. I remember reading a review for it a few months ago and it sounded like an interesting game.

    Anyone who spends that much on DLC for one single game, must have some...certain issues that would be inappropriate to discuss here. After Hours it is.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,406 ✭✭✭Nollog


    Can someone become a test lab rat and craft the coals?

    I am really tempted to see what sort of reward you can get.

    lmao, I got costume quest on day 1.
    I had 8 coal so I crafted 7.
    I just crafted 50% off costume quest.

    Just about to ask the same thing. Watched the WTF review below and it looks rather decent. For pretty much €9.69 you can get the game and it's two DLCs (more planes, and normal/team deathmatch).

    It's hard, very interesting but hard. Some of the new missions they added should help with that though. I strongly recommend reading the wiki and the Steam forums for it for advice and strategies. It's very complex and can be a bit black box-ish.

    After playing it for a while i'd definitely agree. Took me a good while to beat the Rise of Africa scenario, even on easy. But i am liking it though. Feels like a cross between Risk and Yu-Gi-Oh but it works quite well.

    What are the chances of 50% off Skyrim this Christmas eve ?

    Like to try it

    I'm a slave to linear gaming for to long now :D

    I doubt it, if it did go on sale I'd say it would be 33% off
