Spend $15 gets you Chronicles of Riddick and $30 gets you Banished. It's nice to get free stuff for spending money.

How do you like LoG 2 Coot? When I finished Witcher 3 and was looking for my next game and that one made the short-short list. Instead I went with Borderlands 2 (lovin' it). But curious how it is as I might want to pick it up sometime.
BTW, System Shock 2 is amazing. I haven't played it in many years, but when I did I found it creepy and atmospheric. A real classic. Looking Glass had the knack (loved the Thief games too)

Thanks Colonel. Did you enjoy it? Were the puzzles intuitive or frustrating?

Thanks Colonel. That echoes what I've read. Though I think I'll be playing Borderlands for a while to come yet. LoG 2 is on the list.

How do you like Borderlands, incidentally?
I dig the cartoon GFX, but the floating hit numbers and stuff seemed too much for me... I really didn't know how I'd like it. I did quite a bit of reading to find my 'next game', and mostly knew what to expect, and what it was about, but didn't know if I'd actually like it. The floating numbers don't bother me, actually I've grown to like them in this game. Bottom line is I just love this game. It is a fabulous shooter. It's irreverent, whacky, funny and fun. There's not much of a story really. But it's just so much fun to play. It runs like butter being a 2012 game. It is still supported, with a new patch released just a few days ago. I have a bout 60-70 hours in to it and don't see stopping anytime soon. This game will not appeal to everyone, but I think it's great. I have the Borderlands 2 GOTY edition.

PM's right, the games are designed for co-op. For example loot is leveled for co-op. The more players, the better the likelihood of good loot drops. Still, I've been playing single-player and enjoying it all the same.
The co-op is seamless, players can drop in and out at any time. Best to play with friends I think, as otherwise you run in to people who, for example, will host and kick the other players just as the boss has been beaten in order to grab all the loot for themselves, that sort of thing.
Being over 3 years old though, not many of your friends might still be playing it.

Anyone know if the x-wing and tie fighter series on GoG differs from the Steam versions at all? I want to get the best version sometime this Christmas thanks.
