Just completed Bioshock 1, finally realise what all the noise was about. Great game!

Moving onto Batman Arkham City which I just started last night and am loving!!

Then I have Fallout New Vegas to get through which I have no idea about, anyone know is that any good?

Then I might FINALLY get around to finishing off Red Dead Redemption.

*OMSI 2 is now out, but they are practically the same, so get one or the other. 2 has some extra features

BOTH PORTAL GAMES ARE 75% OFF FOR THE NEXT 2 HOURS! - Perfection!

Papers Please is great, but I can see why some people might not like it.

a friend of mine told me about this game now I never played it but heard about it.

He said that the start of the game you must murder someone like stab them I said why there any other way to continue the game without doing it...he said no you have to..sounds kinda crazy.

oh had to check but the game was called Prey 2006 x box 360 game.

Hated arkham city....loved the arkham asylum best game ever...and as for latest one got stuck on the second boss could not complete it...thats a first.

Bioshock 1 is amazing the soundtrack blew me away the Inkspots so cool. 2 is has great gameplay story not great.

I completed red dead but everybody went wild for the zombie version of it.....never played that but.

completed fallout amazing game I tried to play vegas but it was not the same..

So, finally went back to Red Dead Redemption having left it with only a few missions left to go.

Only to find that the feckin save file has been deleted!!

So have to start all over again, damn it.

roboshatner

Such graphic .... sooooooo colour

After picking up Muramasa Rebirth for the Vita from the PS Store January Sale, I have some to the conclusion that it's a pretty cool game (because who doesn't like high-speed sword-swinging fun times) and, judging by the sheer number of swords available to be forged, it should keep me going for quite some time.

If you like Muramasa Rebirth, you should try out Dragon's Crown (made by the same devs). It is slower paced but the gameplay is solid ,there is a lot of diversity due to the different classes you can play and the artwork is absolutely gorgeous.

Ye, I had a look at it and I'd like to play it, but it's fairly pricey - I won't be able to shell out €39.99 anytime soon, so I'll have to put it to one side for the moment. Maybe, if I'm lucky, it'll go free on PS+ soon.

Steam Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaale

Highly recommend Papers, Please. You play an immigration officer for a fictional communist state. So on my 1st run, I let too many illegals in by accident so I didn't make enough money to pay for heat/food. My wife and son got sick and died. I then couldn't afford rent so I got arrested and sent to prison, EPIC

So far I've bought - Terraria, Binding of Isaac, Papers Please, Don't Starve, Monaco, The Cave and Super Meat Boy

wnolan1992

Keep a spreadsheet of what you're buying and how much it costs, it's always gas over on the Steam forum at the end of the sale when people post it up. :pac:


I've only bought Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3 so far. Bought on a whim in work just to get me started. :P

TheBegotten

If for some reason you've never heard of it, Crusader Kings 2 is on sale, 50% off. If you're a fan of strategy games, politics or Game of Thrones, I literally can't recommend it enough. Get some DLC if you've got the extra cash.

WhiskeyGoblin

After going through so many Steam Sales, my game total is 149.

Yet my most played is CS:S :P

Peanut Butter Jelly

Continuing the politics thing, [URL="Democracy 3: Social Engineering
-25%4,99€ 3,74€
Democracy 3: Extremism"]Democracy 3[/URL] is 66% off @ €7.81 + €7.48 for the 2 DLC bundles (Democracy 3: Social Engineering + Democracy 3: Extremism)

wnolan1992

I bought it earlier. I saw a LP vid on YouTube a while ago and it looks hella complicated but really fun.

DLC any good PBJ?

Peanut Butter Jelly

Don't play PC Games, just seen videos on it. I think the plain game is good to start off, and if you want to expand it ,then go ahead for the DLC's.

wnolan1992

Ass Creed 4 for €24...

Tempting... very tempting...

WhiskeyGoblin

Pay Day 2 and Metal Slug 3, couldn't say no.

Peanut Butter Jelly

Buy Thomas Was Alone for €3.19. You never thought you could feel emotions for rectangles? Guess again.

A little preview for you...

wnolan1992

F*ck yes buy TwA. It was my game of the year in whatever year it was released. It's such a beautiful game. Great music, great narration, fun gameplay, great aesthetics...

I am more than a little in love with the game.


The Stanley Parable is 4.79. Buy it. It's fantastic. Don't be that guy that buys Skyrim instead. Everyone's sick of seeing Skyrim in the Top Sellers. Buy a good game FFS. :P

Peanut Butter Jelly

Thomas was Alone was released in November 2012, fyi

The video I posted says it has 10 levels, it now has 100.

wnolan1992

Only spent €27 so far.

Only...



So far...

Was realllllly tempted by that, but in the end Planetary Annihilation for €15 was just too much to pass up on, I've been eying it for a long time.
