Only thing I liked was XCOM but I did not buy it because Gamers Gate had Sniper Elite Complete Collection on sale fro 80% off.I will wait on XCOM cool game but not what
I am in the mood for right now it will be on sale again at some point.

Well I did buy some DLC content for Broderlands 2 but I already had the GOTY edition.

Also for me at least I have a copy of Wasteland 2 as well as the beta for that coming up in the next week or two.

Borderlands looks somewhat interesting.

It's on my list of games to look at sometime. Never pulled the trigger on it because there was always something I wanted more.

It is not a game to be taken seriously so if you expect that you'll be disappointed.It is just a goofy shooter with some RPG elements with lots of silly one liners. For example there are these robots that walk around doing work and every so often over the intercom an announcement says:

"Puppies,a crying child,loneliness if any of these made you feel any emotion at at all please report to your supervisor for immediate deactivation." That is only one example there are hundreds of funny lines in the game.Also it makes fun of rednecks,large corporations stuff like that.


I like it but I also usually do fairly extensive research about a game before I buy it Google is your friend especially game play videos put them on mute to ignore the idiot talking when they are the type in love with their own voice and observe what you see.

This video gives a good example of the level of seriousness the game has if you do not like what you see I'd avoid it this a one of those love it/hate it type games.That guy is playing as the assassin one of 5 character types.the other person is playing as a siren the game plays just fine in single player and then you do not have to share loot.

A few minutes in is a pretty funny boss fight @ 17:00

Really good deal on Shadowrun and the Witcher 2.

There's a mod for Just Cause 2 on Steam enabling multiplayer. Free, gratis, and for nothing. Can't get cheaper than that.

And if you need it, Just Cause 2 is itself 80% off at the moment.

TS2014 82% off.

And if you buy all the DLC for it you'll save roughly £1k.

Wait a couple of weeks and it'll cost you nearly £2k.

I have to say I am rather disappointed with the Holiday steam sale. I swear it is the same darn games that have been making the rounds for the last 6 months

There may be hope within the Flash Sales. I turned down the Total War Flash Sale the other day...

The flash sale is a bit of gimmick really it serves to have people come buy to see if the game they want is on sale most likely it will not be and the customers patience will fail and they will buy the game they want and others anyway.

Funny I can only think of one industry that sells something but never seems to need to have sales.It would not take rocket science to guess what that industry is it is a very old profession.

I've passed up tons of stuff....I'm wondering whether or not to pick up the Counter Strike 1 Anthology or CS: Global Offensive...but no.

Who would I play those with anyway?
