I think some of todays are interesting. FlatOut UC is good fun if you want a very carnage-y racer. Online seems pretty dead but there is substantial singleplayer to get through.

Red Faction seems alright from what I can tell but i've never played it. Worth getting?

What is up with the 'The Guild II' UK price. Probably a similar thing that's up with the Mass Effect 2 EU price.

It's alright. Incredibly repetitive though. And yeah it has been on sale a lot.

Edit: I just watched the Shatter trailer in Steam and it looks pretty cool.

flatout 2 is far better than ultimate imo...

powerups made derby stupid..

I thought the powerups made derby fun. I thought the derbys in 2 were pretty boring and slow paced, and UC's ones were a huge improvement.

different oppinions I guess...

We played 4-8 players over LAN at school when I played it... epic fun...

singleplayer is rather dull...

unreal isn't on sale.

unreal tournament 3 is another game ive effectively been burned on, though

that was free at one point wasn't it?

They just let people add their retail keys to steam and had a free weekend. Even for $50, still got a decent amount of gameplay out of it before the servers turned all bots.

Eyeing Flatout: UC for $2.

Flatout isn't Fallout.

Is Flatout: UC some sort of expansion to Flatout 3 or something? I played Flatout 3 a lot and bought all the expansions for that, but I can't believe they made more. I'll only get it if they raise the level cap and add some new perks. I want to be the ultimate badass, not suck at level 30. Hmm, but that Chinese Stealth armor is pretty OP anyway.

Not sure if serious...

is red faction guerilla good?

I got Shatter last night and i'm enjoying it.

In the christmas sale, the last day was just a selection of previous single-day deals.

I'd love to see the valve complete pack on sale or something (obviously not unrealistically cheap), but noone would buy it thanks to most people owning several of the titles already...

people should be smart like me and make that their first purchase.

Torchlight has been on sale how many times now?

I don't even know if it's worth buying or not

I'm purchasing torchlight...

Should easily be worth the €4

Personally, I could never get it to stop crashing late-game. Could just be me, though.
