Is it just how I read it, or does the trilogy NOT use a 360 controller? One game briefly mentions one, one is overly specific and the other doesn't mention one at all.
All games in the classic trilogy work with my controller (which technically is a 360 controller). That's the only way I would play these games too because the keyboard controls are kind of horrible.
The controls are fully remappable on the controller too.
Prince Of Persia complete pack 75% off
it includes the "Sands Of Time trilogy" and both new ones.
Well, shit.
At least I have Sands of Time on GOG and I'm not terribly interested in The Forgotten Sands, so I can just pick up Warrior Within and The Two Thrones and finish off the Sands of Time trilogy.
Just thought I'd mention that the Prince of Persia: Forgotten Sands Deluxe edition doesn't appear to be available in the UK, for some utterly contrived reason.
Also, that Gothic/Arcania bundle appears to have halved in price since I last checked, so it's actually worth it now.
I agree on that. Avoid Arcania and Forsaken crap at any cost!
That's just them telling you right up front that it's crap.
(okay so I checked back right before actually sleeping because I'm an addict)
...and wow, I was way off. I thought GTA had this one in the bag(since the sale probably would've included every game). I guess I shouldn't trust myself. Even though I WAS right about Metro yesterday. There's a bunch of complaining on the community sale forum that also saw the stats as I did.
You mean there's more to horror than gore and jump scares? Surely you jest. Maybe you should tell hollywood about this new revolutionary idea? Sounds intriguing.
Latest voting round:
- Jagged Alliance: Back in Action (which is absolutely terrible and a massive insult to fans of the series)
- Red Faction: Armageddon (which isn't particularly great and might as well be completely unconnected)
- Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II (which is short as f**k and creates massive plotholes)
Latest voting round: Jagged Alliance: Back in Action (which is terrible, don't vote for it), Red Faction: Armageddon (which isn't particularly great) and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II (which is short as f**k and creates massive plotholes). So it's not exactly the best set of games to choose from.
It's shit versus shit versus shit. You can't go right with this one.
Red Faction Guerrilla won the crapvote. And then they didn't even discount the whole series. Well it's 75% off if anyone is really interested. I guess not.
Next vote? Lara Croft: Guardian Of Light (was a flash sale before) 75% off Mirror's Edge 75% off (gets my vote) Beyond Good & Evil 75% off (by far the best game in this vote)
New Flash Deals Cave Story+ 75% off. Why don't you own this already? Shogun 2 75% off (repeat Daily Deal from Day 1)
Age of Empires III - 75% off Assassin's Creed (franchise) - 75% off Dear Esther - 75% off Indie Bundle V (Audiosurf, Gemini Rue, Greed Corps, The Tiny Bang Story and Ys: The Oath of Felghana) - 75% off Iron Front: Liberation 1944 - 75% off Men of War (franchise) - 75% off Metro 2033 - 75% off RAGE - 66% off (Price still isn't converted, grr) Star Wars: Knights of the old Republic - 75% off
Also, some Flash Deals. Fable III and the F.E.A.R. franchise, both 75% off.
Dear Esther is a story that is told while you are exploring a deserted island. Finding certain places might drop you a line or not. And the caves are the best looking thing I have ever senn in a video game. How they managed to create that in Source? They must have sacrificed a bag of kittens. For that price it's worth it but finding a good quality playthrough on youtube and watching it fullscreen might give you the same experience.
Tiny Bang Story is a hidden Object puzzle game. It's short, looks great and is also quite worth it at that price.

Thanks for the advice, I'm probably gonna get both.
it will be very interesting to say the least. MW3 had a deal but that was lower wasn't it?
(checked the thread it was 25% off on Day 1)
It was half-price before, IIRC.
Surprised no-one mentioned the Flash Deals. Dungeon Siege 3 (not available in Europe, grr), Europa Universalis III and the Pendulo Studios Adventure pack are all 75% off. Been waiting for the Pendulo one, so yay!
EDIT: Vote was won by Skyrim. Not entirely surprising, really.
EDIT2: New vote! Batman: Arkham City (franchise), Risen 2: Dark Waters and The Witcher 2.
Yesterday is the most tempting thing in the world right now. I'd probably jump on it if I had, um, money. That is something of a limiting factor, I suppose!
New choices are: E.Y.E. Divine Cybermancy (no), Krater (eh) and Sanctum (eh). If EYE wins, I will film myself eating the most disgusting thing I can think of - Marmite flavoured chocolate.
Latest Flash deals: the Double Fine bundle (75%) and Sniper Elite V2 (50%).
New Daily Deals. Not the most amazing bunch this time round, sadly.
Call of Duty: Black Ops - 50% off Company of Heroes (franchise) - 75% off Grand Theft Auto (franchise) - 75% off Indie Bundle VI (AaaaAAAA! For the Awesome, DEFCOM, SpaceChem, Ticket to Ride and Trauma) - 75% off, though I've reason to believe this is available in the US, for some reason. Limbo - 75% off Railworks Train Simulator 2012 - 90% off Spec Ops: The Line - 33% off Stronghold 3 Gold - 75% off Wargame: European Escalation - 50% off (wasn't this a weekend deal recently?)
New Flash Deals. Duke Nukem Forever + DLC (75% off, though The Doctor Who Cloned Me is only 50%) and Binary Domain (66% off).

Two strategy games, my cue to sleep.

Well EA doesn't want my money for that game. Not available in your region. That's good though. I don't like horror games that aren't scary.
You mean there's more to horror than gore and jump scares? Surely you jest. Maybe you should tell hollywood about this new revolutionary idea? Sounds intriguing.
BUY IT.

OMG I will.
Actually no. I will not.
Edit: Thanks Darth Marsden.
Ah, but then you don't get the badge upgrade.
Of course you do. There are 30-40 voting opportunities and you only need 20 across all days to get everything for the badge.
nobody ever should.

EDIT: Winner of the vote was Mirror's Edge. Something went very wrong there.
Latest votees are Deus Ex (again), Modern Warfare 3 (again) and Skyrim (AGAIN). Running out of ideas, methinks.
New Flash Deal is Dead Rising 2: Off the Record. Usual 75%.
No it didn't.
Deus Ex.

The Double Fine bundle is a must have for anyone who doesn't already own the games in the bundle.
Unless you've taken the backdoor through the BttF or JP forums.
Hey, I'm pushing DF sales here.
Well then you are already fucked. Through the backdoor.
Krater has my vote this time because I don't own it.
