You don't? I didn't think it was a system hog...plus the game is like 4 dollah right now. Worth buying it and holding on to it for when you upgrade. Great game.

I am tempted.

Don't discourage him. I get a free beer if he goes over.

We've had some fun MP games on Asid's Teamspeak server recently, go for it!

Only other game I have on my radar is the updated version of Planescape. Right now it's on sale for 16.99, not sure if it's going to go lower.

Oh and Exanima. Which is not on sale at all right now.

So no limit then really. Instead of 2 $50 games it will 20 $5 games.  :bd:

I get more mileage out of six $5 games than one $30, to be honest. Besides, there weren't any titles in that range that were pumping my nads anyway.

Command Ops 2 modules are 50% off.

Thinking about picking up westwall, its the only one I don't have. Waiting to see if the LnL store has a sale. If there on target the steam keys for previous purchases are supposed to be available today.

I was sheepish to join this thread when all the Farm Simulator puns were flying around, but now that we're no longer soiling the board with such trash, I have a question for you all.

Which is a better bargain:  X-Com 2 at $19.79 or TW: Warhammer at $20.39?

I know you blokes would recommend both, but my family just got back from a vacation to the Big Island in Hawaii.  While it was fantastic, and one of the best vacations in my life, it was not cheap!  And the job offer that was materializing three weeks ago has somehow been trapped in the transporter buffer, so I'm on thin ice with Mrs. FarAway to spend too much.

Which leads me back to my original question:  Which one is a more compelling and high-quality time suck?  I'm leaning towards TW, unless the AI is dumb as a box of rocks and the battles just start to feel like grinding...

It can be difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff.
