    Oddworld wouldn't play on my laptop - All the fixes and patches I found didn't work - I was very sad. :(

    Just to keep in mind!

    Amazing deals though!

    Children of the Nile: 0.49 http://store.steampowered.com/app/17120/

    You'll have to buy the base game for that particular title. It's not immediately obvious either, I'd wish they'd mark it as DLC.

    AvP 2000, I had no idea that was on Steam. Thanks Digitalism!

    Also, Cthulhu Saves The World is on offer at €0.68. It's a parody of SNES-era RPG's, nice SNES looking visuals and music.

    Good grief, online nostalgia. Seems it was out earlier than 2000 though. The single campaign was flawed, but multiplayer online, at the time, was ace.

    The game was quite hard to track down at one point. The original issue of the Gold Edition (not the budget label re-issue), is still touted for about $15-$20, on eBay.

    I have about €1.50 left on a Dublin City Gift Card..

    They actually released that classic game on steam without multiplayer for some reason...anyone know if they ever actually got around to adding it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,026 ✭✭✭Amalgam


    Meirleach, have a gander at the Steam support forum for the game, there's a sticky or two concerning multiplayer near the top. The word 'BETA' is used..

    Also, it seems the game can default to debug mode, which disables the Multiplayer Menu choice.

    Only 20 hours to go, at that price.

    Anyone recommend a good game for a Mac?

    I rarely buy games at all but it'd be good to have one or two to mess around with. I used to love Command & Conquer on the PC, and strategy games in general. May aswell make use of this sale!

    I'd recommend Portal 2, Civilization 4, Team Fortress 2 (Free online shooter, and one of the best there is!), world of goo (bridge building strategy), Left 4 Dead 1&2 (online shooter versus zombie horde), Counter Strike (classis online shooter), super meat boy (amazing platform game),

    These are all on MAC

    Thanks lads, I got 'Torchlight' to action-RPG-it-up, just started it last night, 3hrs in, it's shaping up to be a real interesting game so far

    I also bought 'Portal 2', all I gotta say 'bout that one is WOW! love the idea and the game mechanics, probably wont be seeing me now on boards.ie for a while

    My next one to get is 'Counter Strike' but as far as I remember is a really old game, I want to play on line multi player, do loads of people still play 'counter strike' online multiplayer these days?

    also has anyone played 'nuclear dawn', only 70/100, but it looks very cool. any thoughts?

    You should try Team Fortress 2 - loads and loads of people play it and it's as I mentioned it's FREE!!

    ARMA Cold War (The original operation flashpoint) is 1.99
    The original Op Flashpoint is Operation Flashpoint. The ARMA series was after OF and all its expansions were released and Codemasters and Bohemia parted ways. All the ARMA games are buggy as hell though, thats what annoys (I nearly typed bugs!) me about them.

    Get Counter Strike: Source. If you have an old, valid and legal Gunman Chronicles or Half-Life key you'll get the original set of games on Steam. Day of Defeat: Source is half price too.

    Do you have an Nvidia or ATI graphics card? The Nvidia or ATI offers for a free copy of Half Life 2: Deathmatch may still be active, but I'm not too sure.

    Tis a steal at that price.
