It looks damn pretty, but it doesn't seem to bring much new to the table. Suppose I'll wait and see what features get added.

Its pretty cool, but I wish there was a better way to organize all my games though. Also a completely unified Server list would be cool too rather than JUST Source games.

There aren't really any other things I'd want that I can think of ATM though.


EDIT: NVM They have a "Edit categories..." button in the game library section.

The games library list is totally too much info + system resources. Yeah it LOOKS nicer but god damn way to step back in usability. The games were a lot easier to identify when they had icons next to the text.

Possibly worth while discount: 7 Indie games, each for $2 USD or all 7 for $10 USD.

I might pick one or 2 of them up since they are so cheap... 2 dollars is nothing for what appears to be at least semi-decent games.
Original prices vary.

Altitude (2D aircraft shooter)
GameRankings: 81 (based on 2 reviews)

Bob Came in Pieces (2d physics puzzle platformer with "lunar lander" style controls)
(no reviews)

Bullet Candy (Geometry wars style game)
(no reviews)

Galcon Fusion (Abstract 2d RTS)
(no reviews)

Gridrunner Revolution (Another Geometry wars style game)
Metacritic: 79

Space Giraffe (2d shooter?)
gamerankings: 52 (Based on 1 review, however, the 360 version got 71.12% on gamerankings based on 26 reviews)

Super Laser Racer (2D topview racing game)
(no reviews)


EDIT: decided on Altitude and Bob Came in Pieces. Rest look 'meh' to me.

If I have money in my account by the 14th I can buy you one of them (there's no reason to really want Invisible War anyway, to be honest.)
