    Bought two copies of Killing Floor for my brothers, they've always wanted this game and I think it's absolutely magnificent.

    I wouldn't waste a fiver on it tbh, such an awful boring game, never even bothered to finish it.

    Picked up this awhile ago and only got round to playing it last week. If your pc will run it maxed it looks and plays very good. I must say I really enjoyed it. Ok it has a couple of flaws but still think it's an excellent game. Well worth €5 I think.

    It's utter sh1te. Don't waste your money. Nothing like the first one and not made by Crytek.

    Im tempted to get GTAIV just to try out some of the mods.

    I just bought Jamestown even though it's going to be an absolute pain in the arse getting it to work.

    I, in short, regret nothing. Bullet hell ftw.

    Godspeed you poor mac user. :p

    If you get it working let us know what it is like playing solo. The trailer kinda sold it as a 4 player co-op kinda game.

    Windows only. I'm going to see if I can get it running though Wine, but then will need to try hook up my arcade stick too...

    Meant to be great though, and I'm a fiend for anything where the bullets flow in silly amounts.

    I hate to break it to you guys, and im not trollign here, but the steam version of GTA4 is incompatible with the icEnhacer mod. It will work, but it will work very, very, poorly. ICenhancer needs patch 1.0.4.0 for optimal performance, steam is default at 1.0.7.0

    Definitely gonna get jamestown from what I've heard about it. Can anyone vouch for the King's bounty games? They look like they should be an action rpg but the video for armors princess has characters on a hex grid.

    Reports say its not that bad, just missing a few effects. iCEnhancer 1.2.5 is apparently built specifically to be 1.0.7.0 compatible, so there's hope people :)

    Everyone get Jamestown (got it up and running even if I had to return to the depths of Windows XP :P).

    It's bullet heaven.

    Probably the slickest, most playable non-Cave bullet hell game I've played. I consider that a compliment of the highest order :)

    Couldn't disagree more. One of the most difficult games to get into and not perfect by any means but I'm so glad I stuck with it - I really liked it. Flawed but brilliant IMO.

    Couldn't recommend Far Cry 2 to anyone, those respawning checkpoints were just a stupid decision.

    GTA IV isn't the best game ever, but I really think R* created the most compelling environment of any open world game yet. It's just such a great place to explore, if slightly disappointing there's not as many fun extras as previous GTA games. But the Ballad of Gay Tony is fantastic stuff, base jumping ftw!

    Enjoyed it as well despite the flaws. Refreshing that the tried something different, even if it wasn't successful it was like nothing else.
