I kinda liked RA3 from what I got to play of it, it seems like a dumbed down but prettier RA2.

Unfortunately, one mission later on, where you have to fight a bunch of mind controlled bears and deadly circus tents refused to finish on my Vista setup. Every time I got near the end it'd crash :(​.

Would you say it's worth my hard borrowed cash? It's either that or Morrowind. And I am more of a gun that sword kinda guy. I thought Oblivion was boring and Fallout 3 excellent.

I've bought a shitload of titles, partly because I've been wanting to try most of them and partly because they went for around €2. I guess it's kind of nuts of me to buy so many games, but I've never been into paying €60 for a video game unless I know for sure it's good, so this was a good opportunity to catch up on games that could've potentially disappointed me.

Here's the list in case anyone's interested!

Beyond Good and Evil
Deus Ex
Deus Ex 2
Heroes of Might and Magic 5
Hitman: Blood Money
Max Payne
Max Payne 2
Abe's Exoddus
Abe's Oddysee
Overlord II
Penumbra: Black Plague
Penumbra: Ovberture
Penumbra: Requiem
Prey
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones
Prince of Persia: The Warrior Within
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
Serious Sam HD
Street Fighter IV
Torchlight
World of Goo
Morrowind
Mass Effect

So far I regret buying Heroes 5, Max Payne and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Heroes 5 because it's a complete piece of shit and is nothing at all like the previous games in the series, Max Payne because, well, it's not as cool as I recalled, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. because it's so horribly slow/badly coded that I can't play it for more than a couple of minutes. All in all I'm pretty satisfied with the purchases though. If you guys haven't already you should definitely get Prince of Persia, Abe and Deus Ex. They're all really good series.

Stalker should really be called P.A.T.I.E.N.C.E because you do need rather a lot to get into it.

it's just a hunch but chances are that penumbra is worth the price.

It's worth full price. Except the thrid game. That's worth no price.

I bought Morrowind: GOTY... the rest of the current "today only" sale doesn't interest me for various reasons:

Trine: Heard its a Diablo clone. played maybe 30 minutes of Diablo 2 and thought it was 'meh'.

RA3: I have never really been into RTS games. I like being on the ground IN the fight rather then floating over it. Or if I'm going to build up a attack force or defense I've always desired more customization than what RTS's can provide. (the amount I'd want would slow the gameplay down quite a bit)

Pain Killer collection: Saw my brother play one of them. It appears to be incredibly derivative and dull to me.


Anyone want to try to change my mind on any of these? (note: I already own CSS)

this is really nothing like diablo at all, thats Torchlight. Trine is more like lost vikings with more RPG aspects and (imo) is more fun

ohh yeah... I remember reading about that game. Well still not interested it mainly the fantasy element. :P there are few games that I'm able to play and enjoy that are fantasy themed... mainly the elder scrolls games.

I bought Dead Space. I am enjoying it thoroughly.
