I didn't even get through the first encounter with enemies. I despise having someone I have to protect in a game, and she got caught up on the environment or something and I got a notification she was in trouble. By the time I turned around, she was in a crowd of zombies and dead before I got 2 shots off. *uninstall*

I did just get a free key to Dirt 2, which is a very pretty racer, and fun too. A lot easier to get into than Grid.

I broke down and bought MAG yesterday. I'm enjoying it a lot!

YOU GUYS! You know that Psychonauts for £1/$2 sale that steam did? That was pretty nuts, right? We won't see anything like that any time soon. YES WE GODDAMN HELL SHIT WILL!

Freedom Force and Freedom Force vs. The Third Reich pack = £2/$2
X-Com Complete pack (five games) = £2/$2

2 bucks does not = 2 pounds, but still.

Freedom Force is a superhero real-time tactical role-playing game inspired by Jack Kirby, made by Ken Levine. I could have just typed 'awesome' over and over just there.



X-Com are severely hard but absolutely classic tactical games. Mean, mean games.



Oh yeah, and they took 66% off Tropico 3.

I bought it on the sale but haven't got to it yet. It's basically Metroid in the Unreal 3 (same foundation as Bioshock) engine, and I'm ok with that.

I've heard it's much better online in co-op, but yeah, not got around to organising that yet.

No, but I feel like I should get commission or something at this point.

Shadow Complex is a lot of fun. In the spirit of Metroid the map is huge. It's far from perfect but it is entertaining.

Finally finished Afro Samurai which was cool for a couple hours but incredibly repetative and the story just confused the shit outta me. I traded that, GTA4 and Terminator Salvation (which I won in a competition - didn't even play it once) for Darskiders. I've still got Mirrors Edge, Gears 2 and Res Evil 5 to play through yet so I'll finish them before I get into Darksiders.

He's just a game lover and whoever loves ganmes loves steam and wnats to convert other people. We're like the Body Snatchers, but funny. Thanks to him converting me, i now am a shameless impulse buyer and a happier person.

Come to Steam. Come to the darkness. Your bank accounts will never be the same....


Anyway, Is anyone playing ME2? C'mon people! It's an experience! If this one doesnt change the concept of gaming, then we're fucked.

Picked up Mass Effect 2 yesterday. Looking good so far.. I really need to get a new TV though, these games just aren't designed to be played on an old crt tv.. can't read hardly any of the text.
