Spider Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 I haven't really played much with the expansion yet, but it does add another type of tension to the missions. It has a tendency to make you more careless, which is dangerous in xcom. Don't know about difficulty though, haven't gotten that far. Only complaint that I've read is that it made the very last mission easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I'd say the expansion has made it harder. Mechs and enemies who use rockets is a change of pace from the original. It definitely still has a lot of challenges on classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoonDing Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 (edited) I managed to get Arkham City GOTY on Steam by inserting GfWL retail key, however this does not work for Arkham Asylum and other GfWL retail games. How is this going to be solved when GfWL is abolished in August? Edited December 2, 2013 by Drudanae The ending of the words is ALMSIVI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sorophx Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 (edited) Would Payday 2 be worth it? I know Last Light is (although I own it), but from the look of it, Payday would need for me to have a few friends to properly play. if Payday 1 is any indication, I'd say don't bother unless it's 75% off. first game got very repetitive very fast and the only good missions were the ones they added much later with an expansion it's basically Left 4 Dead only with humans instead of zombies, and with a lot less missions to play through. speaking of L4D, got the second game, and it's great fun in co-op As per my thread where I asked for a cool FPS, FC3 was recommended. So the ultra-uber edition was on offer for seven quid. Downloading now. ^doing just this *Internet-high-fives Monte* Edited December 2, 2013 by sorophx Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland.

BruceVC Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Wow, Saint's Row 4 is on slae for $20, I couldn't resist. At this point I've bought too much already. AC3, Rogue Legacy, BG:EE, and now SR4.

Humanoid Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 At that price for the normal version, I may have bitten. But instead they were asking closer to $30, and obviously the "low violence" Aussie version. Yeah, no. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, there's a good chance it will be on sale during the X-Mas Sale, which will likely be in a couple of weeks. I contemplated getting Metro: Last Light, but then decided against pulling the trigger on it. While my lappy will surely be able to run it, it won't be able to come anywhere near max, or even high settings, plus my backlog is already quite long. Might as well wait until next year when I build a new desktop rig so that I can play it on maximum eye candy. I'll likely get it cheaper then anyway. 1 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blarghagh Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 (edited) A word of caution. It's a much more story based game than the original (much of it will be lost on players who don't pick up and read the diary entries). It's also not as viscerally scary, more subtle. And quite short. Don't expect a similar experience to the first one. I still thought it was quite good, but many fans of the original didn't enjoy it because it was too different.

Got it though XD EDIT: Updated to 40%, that's more like it. Fortunately before I bought it too That happens during the big Steam sales from time to time, in one direction or the other, generally right after they change the daily/flash sales. Sometimes you can get ludicrous deals that way, like when they had Sleeping Dogs for something ridiculous like 97% off for about 5 minutes before someone realized "Oh ****, that can't possibly be right!". That's why if you know their schedule (dailies change at 1PM EDT, flash sales change at 5AM, 1PM, 9PM EDT) it pays to check right at the moments they change.
