You should at least try it. If you're a huge fan of music, then you shouldn't miss that one out.

I just tried it.

Wow. I was not expecting it to be that good. It's nice to have a game exceed my expectations, for once.

Is that X-Wing? X-Com? What?

I only bought Indiana Jones Fate of Atlantis. The only one I miss that I didn't want, was braid, that´s my only regret.

that's just X, it's a space sandbox game. he didn't need to buy all the games, X³:TC alone would be enough IMO. the collection includes X and an expansion pack, X2 and X3:R and X3:TC .

I bought:

AC Brotherhood
NFS Pack (Undercover, Shift 1 and 2 and Hot Pursuit)
King Arthur Collection
Bad Company 2 complete



the words above were backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!

Ok I have far more self control then the normal Steam Slave, I only got a couple of games. I kept TOTAL self control. 
  • Serious Sam HD (just damn fun shootin' things)
  • Batman AA
  • Audiosurf  (my 5 min quick test lasted about an hour :p) ( however I sadly can't recommend grieg's piano concerto for this game)
  • 2 x Magicka for my brothers ( was too fun to keep for myself)
  • 2 x F1 2010
  • Bioshock 2
  • Aliens vs Preditor
Humm.... ok maybe I did buy one or two more then I expected. BUT! I resisted buying the Entire THQ bundle.
Hey it's still up for sale!
be back soon..

I've only played Audiosurf so far from the above list.

Regrets? Perhaps not purchasing Civ 5 or the Splinter Cell pack.

Just Bad Company 2. Single player was awful, but MP is really good. Vietnam is decent, but I don't think I'll play it much.

  • Audiosurf - Haven't touched and probably never will
  • Bad Company 2: Only played the single player, which is cliched, slow and lame.
  • Fallout: New Vegas - Haven't played yet, but will start soon.
  • Half Life 2 Episodes - Despite the fact that I didn't much like HL2. Bored of Episode 1 after about half an hour.
  • Just Cause 2 - Very happy with this purchase.
  • Star Wars: Battlefront II - For the sake of nostalgia. Tip: it's a lot worse on PC than on consoles.
  • Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory - Haven't played yet. Loved it on PS2, but didn't much like the original Splinter Cell on PC

So all in all, not fantastic, but not awful either.


Yay someone else sees it. Garbage compared to the 1st.
