The story DLC is good. All the other DLC is kind of lame.

stusser · 2014-10-23T14:37:51.000Z

Yes but is it three bucks good?

I would pay $3 for “How the Saints Saved Christmas”

stusser · 2014-10-23T14:47:26.000Z

So it was overpriced? You feel like you got ripped off paying the original list price?

(Before people start getting perturbed, I’m just fucking with you. It’s three bucks.)

So I own both original Metros on PC (not the Redux versions), but I haven’t had a chance to play them yet. Is Metro 2033 Redux worth it at 40% off? I don’t know if I can justify getting both Redux versions at this point so I was thinking that 2033 would have a more substantial change since it is the older title. Is the upgrade worth it?

Thanks,
Todd

Saints Row 4 for $7 on steam.

The super-deluxe edition with all DLC is $10. Is the DLC worth three buckaroos?

For 3 bucks I’d say yeah. Enter the Dominatrix is similar to what they were planning as the standalone expansion for SR3 (IIRC), and there are some amusing ideas there. How the Saints Saved Christmas is . . . odd. Both are substantial chunks of play time, at least 3 hours each going from memory. But I don’t rush through things.

I wouldn’t pay more than $2.74 for it. YMMV.

Rome II: Imperial Edition is $20 on Humble for the next 24 hours.

I bought Mordor over at Greenman gaming, and they gave me 10 codes for other games(!) GMG doesn’t tell you what they are, so I have no idea if I already have them or even if any of them are worth playing :\

How the hell do they make money?

GMG is a front for the russian mafiya to launder money.

Seriously, it’s plausible.

Please let us know what they are when you find out–I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s curious.

Hotfreak · 2014-10-24T15:10:34.000Z

I gather Mordor was a trick or treat title and you got a treat?

I got a 25% off voucher that expires on 10/31. Tricky.

I also got free codes for:
Evolve Alpha

Papa & Yo

JoshL · 2014-10-24T15:34:25.000Z

Papa & Yo is good. On the easy side, I guess, but good.

I can get Blackguards Deluxe Edition on Gamersgate for $16.32 ($20.40-$4.08, with additional 20% coupon). Is the game worth it? I seems to be getting mixed reviews.

robc04 · 2014-10-24T16:18:35.000Z

The Walking Dead Season 2 for about $6 from the MAc Store. Comments say you can download the PC version from the Telltale website. Not a Steam code.

Tropico 5 for $20. That one is a Steam key.

Brad_Grenz · 2014-10-24T16:21:29.000Z

The GTA and Civilization games are on sale in the Amazon download store. They come with Steam codes:

GTA IV Complete - $6.00
Civilization V Complete - $16.67

Lots more in the first link including base games and individual expansions.

Try the demo. It’s long. I quite liked the game but didn’t finish yet.
