    There should be no set rules about it, just leave it up to the person with the code to decide how they want to dole it out.

    To anyone who missed out on the Stalker code, use this as an excuse to treat yourself. The games are awesome.

    Tried it on my gaming laptop back in 07, didn't like it. Tried in on my current rig, still don't like it. Guess the game is just not for me. :confused:

    Yep that happens. There's no rule saying you should like a certain game. There is kind of a rule though that you need to at least try certain games.:pac:
    (Obviously though if the genre don't whet your appetite then you shouldn't try it.)

    Great game S.T.A.L.K.E.R reminds me of Metro: 2033. Got the latter free off a FB deal before THQ went belly up. Great games.

    Quick question about something I've been trying to figure out: Is this thread just for PC games or all platforms? I know I've posted PC bargains here, PSN bargains in the PS Plus thread in the Playstation forum and Wii U bargains in the Wii U Bargains thread in the Nintendo forum.

    Also does this thread cover consoles and accessories?

    Yeah, bargains on any format can be posted in here as well as deals on gaming hardware/peripherals.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,955 ✭✭✭✭Skerries


    it just seems like it is for PC because all the best deals are on PC and not Console games ;)

    That was Metro 2033.

    Last light is the expansion sequel.

    I got it too. It's gorgeous but I don't really like stealth games.

    My mistake. Yeah but you can play it non stealthily if thats your thing. I found this electromagnetic weapon in the early stages of the game that lasted me the entire playthrough. So OP :P

    Just another reason why PC is super awesome :D

    On giving out codes, ive always posted that i have a code and give it to the first person who asks for it on the thread and just send it to them via pm. At least that way i know a genuine Boards user is getting the code.

    Is that a complete collection or "complete collection"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,112 ✭✭✭Dacelonid


    Complete collection, ie fallout 1,2 and tactics

    "Complete collection"
    Yeah, that sh*t really annoys me at times.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,902 ✭✭✭Julez


    People should have to earn codes... with sock puppet shows!!

    But it was the complete collection when it was released. Its not as if steam are calling it a complete collection, that is just the name of the product

    It does seem a bit marmite-ey all right. You either love it or hate it. It does take a bit of time to get into it though. When I first played it, I hated it but after a few hours I was hooked.
