Loads of stuff up on sale. And I'm all out of money!

Railworks 3 is now 50% off, after I bought it 3 weeks ago on full price. Meh, it's worth it anyway. Just waiting for something interesting to show up. The Dragon Age Ultimate Edition looks very good at Ł12.50...

Oh no not another sale! I wont go to Steam! I wont!

The last time they had a sale I couldn't stop myself!

This time I will be strong! I will!









Oh hell... who I am kidding?

Ohhh, I'm gonna get in trouble! LOL
Anyone know if Fuel supports a wheel & FFB? Might be fun like that. Made me nauseous on 360, might be better on pc.
I'll check the CM forum, but I hate going there. LOL

Is Test Drive Unlimited 2 any good? I mean.. is it $5.00 worth of game..not is it the best driving sim ever..

Just snagged DCS: A-10C for half off.

It's not great, as in TDU1 was ironically a better game. For $5 it's worth it though. Mini-review:

Bad Things:
- Silly challenge races to unlock cars. They tried to add a cheesy story, and it's sphincter-tighteningly bad
- Physics of the cars is more 'floaty'
- Sounds/voices not great

Good Things:
- Ibiza and Maui to drive around, i.e. some serious terrain with a B+ graphics engine
- Multiplayer is not empty
- It's casual fun, i.e. sometimes ok to just pick up and play without stress or hours of commitment.

For the Steam Sales 'daily specials' today, the ones I own and would recommend would be:

- Mass Effect 1 & 2. Worth the cash, especially if you are a recent Skyrim convert and don't mind a bit of story-led play.
- Portal 2. A Great Game on lots of levels
- Orcs Must Die. Decent tower defense hybrid - nicely done.
- MoW: Vietnam. Enjoyed it, but it's clunky. If you are keen on the series then worth it (esp. now there is a scenario editor out).
- Sam & Max. Depends on your humor levels. Really enjoyed it.

The ones I would pass on (although also own <- I'm with stupid etc) would be:

- CoD:Black Ops. Not good value. Wait.
- Duke. Not as fun as you'd think. It'll get even cheaper by Christmas.
- Oddworld. Nostalgia buy, so unless you know what it is then probably not going to enjoy
- Risen. Pretty openworld sand-box Diablo style explore/slash. Worth about 4% of a Skyrim or a LotR:North, so unless very keen then pass
- Renegade Ops. Kinda stupid top-down destruction/driving arcade thing. Thin pickings. Pass.

By the way, I should add: For these Steam sales that do the 'Daily Deals' plus the Publisher Catalog savings then it's nearly always worth buying on the last day of the sale (for Steam that would be November 27th).

It's not a good feeling to buy something on Day 1 and then find out it's part of the Daily Deals further reduction the next day. If you have an eye on a few games already then it's worth seeing if the come up on the Daily Deal further reductions and if they don't then just get them at the end anyways (as long as Steam doesn't go down under load..)

I'm weak. I folded. Got 'Portal 2' and 'Test Drive 2'.

I hope there's nothing interesting tomorrow.

Cliffs of Dover is $33.50 on Steam and Amazon. I was hoping for it to cost less... but I am thinking of picking it up. The issue is my PC really isn't up to par to play it.

The sad thing is I haven't even played some of the games I got in the last steam sale!
