    Humble bundle has SMB and activates on steam, might be a better option for some.

    That seems to be the DLC and not the game.

    There is the DLC €15, and there is also the game for €15. And yes, it requires Origin.

    Skydrift looks right up my street, any one know if it's any good
    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).
    Just got the game. It's f**king insane to handle. Once I get the controls figured out, it should be okay. Using keyboard atm, as I could never get used to the 360 control pad. May hook up the PS2 controller later, but meh.

    BTW, if people are getting low download speeds then try switching your location to the Ukraine (I'm sure other countries would work). I'm getting over 1 mb/s (that's pretty much maxing out the limit of my internet package) as opposed to speeds in the low 100's of kb/s.


    From the menu -
    Steam> Settings> Downloads + Cloud> Download Region (drop-down bar)

    =

    :D

    Very fun if you know the game it is based off :)

    But yea, Blood Bowl is american football with orcs, elfs, undead etc. and not only the permission, but some say goal, of beating the enemy to pulp in the process of getting the ball to the other side. Different teams have different strengths etc.

    First purchases of the sale for me today.
    Skyrim
    Hard Reset.

    Kind of proud of myself, or maybe it's the fact that I took the cc off the saved 1-click purchase profile. :o
