Steam - There's a sale on

[therealjohnpeat]

geo wars £2.69

Unless you have a 360 controller (wired or with the PC wireless doodah) - forget buying this as it's support for anything other than that controller is non-existant.

[Graham S]

I strongly recommend Trials 2.

[Vimster]

Painkiller Overdose for £4.49? I'd have that.

Damnit, I bought Far Cry and id Super Pack this weekend, so tempted to pick up more before the 2nd Jan. Makes me wonder how far the prices will go back up.

[Timmo]

Trials 2 is amazing. Best pseudo 3D game based upon trial biking currently available on Steam for less than 2 dollars easily.

It's basically a very pretty 2D trials bike game with great physics.

[Quest]

I'd buy Trials 2 in a second if it appeared on Live Arcade, but for some reason I can't bring myself to play games on my PC.

[Sigourney Beaver]

I thin kI'm going to add Darkstar One, Heavy Weapon and Luxor 2 and then that's me lot.

Everyday Shooter

World of Goo

Trials 2 Second Edition

Trackmania United Forever

That'll do I reckon. I already bought the id pack, Farcry and some other junk

[therealjohnpeat]

Even tho it's not hugely discounted in the sale - more people need to buy Everyday Shooter because it's quite simply AMAZING

It's the best example of "game as art" and "music created by play" and sheer JOY packaged into just 8(?) levels - ever - and it deserves far more credit that it's gotten upto now.

BUY IT!

After an hour's play I think you're right.

The PC is a great place to play it too - the PsP version suffers from your ship being TINY and you're hardly about to get a PS3 just for this so...

The way the tutorial is built-into the first level - although a bit annoying after a while - is a truly inspired idea in itself...

p.s. Having just tried the Trials 2 Demo I'm gonna have to add that to the list of destruction Steam's sale has caused...

and they say lowering game prices wouldn't sell more games - pssshawwww....

[moosegrinder]

I've had the Ps3 version for aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages and it is awesome. I'm not sure about the 8 way directional fire sometimes though.

I bought that Trial 2 thing, Darwinia/Uplink and Outrun 2006. Darwinia confuses me.

[Retroid]

Just got Bio-shock - best tree fiddy (better then getting conned by that damn Loch Ness monster anyway) I've ever spent! Seriously no game in a long time has left me with so many gob smackingly amazing moments - I think it's also because I actually have a decent PC now as well - took me a minute to realise that the water scene at the beginning wasn't a video.

or it's a hugely overrated game. I mean it's a nice game and all but I think people over hype it too much. Does the PC version have full analog shooting?

As a game Geo Wars 2 is far more worthy of peoples cash.

[moosegrinder]

It's 8 way shooting by design. GW2 is a better game, but ES is still brilliant.

[therealjohnpeat]

Given that GW2 is 360 only and ES is PS3/PSP/PC that's a bit moot innit?

The author also recommends playing with keys and not a pad...

[RubberJohnny]

I just bought Peggle, the Doom Multipack and Heavy Weapon, cause the last two were only a quid each. Shame I don't have Steam on this PC.

[Alex W.]

I got Audiosurf and Bioshock. Don't know when I'll play the latter, but it's hard to argue with that price.

It could be cheaper.

[Vimster]

If they had System Shock 2 up there for £3.49.....

[Sigourney Beaver]

If they had System Shock 2 up there for £3.49.....

Steam would evaporate.

[mr_woo]

anyone had any problems whilst at checkout recently ? Just been trying to buy a few games and when I hit the Purchase button just says unexpected error and transaction not completed.

Yes. It kept telling me my card had been declined

err condense surely?

[daveodeth]

Dear god the flame wars over Bio and System shock would cause the world to explode.

[Sigourney Beaver]

Fukit! I went for Gravitron 2! Nust not buy more!

[redbloodcell]

Had to buy Bioshock for that price, I got about halfway through on the 360 but it wasn't mine so never got to finish it. Prefer a mouse to a joypad anyway really.

[Raane]

I thin kI'm going to add Darkstar One, Heavy Weapon and Luxor 2 and then that's me lot.

Don't bother with darkstar one it's repetitive shite.

[spaceyjase]

World of Goo is a bit addictive

Fukit! I went for Gravitron 2! Nust not buy more!

I fucking love that game.

[Raff]

Did they ever patch a walk button for Bioshock PC?

[Rudi von Starnberg]

Yes, it arrived with the patch that added in a No Vita Chambers mode and widescreen stuff and extra plasmids.
