I'm actually rebuying a few games I have in storage just to have them available in Steam ... digital distribution for PC games just kind of works.

Picked up S.T.A.L.K.E.R. for $1.99. My copy is in storage and I never got around to playing it so for that price, why not. I'll probably pick up the Unreal Pack for $13.49 and the Elder Scrolls Oblivion Deluxe with all the DLC packs for $26.49.

Looks like i will be dropping some cash on Steam this evening.

I have been wanted the newer Chessmaster game and it is half off so i will snag that. Most likely i will pick up Indigo Prophecy and the Wallace and Gromit set as well.

The Witcher is also tempting me...

Decker

Me being lazy here (have to get back to work): What is S.T.A.L.K.E.R.? What sort of game is it? Is it any good??

UncleGramps

I got Defense Grid and STALKER last night. Today I'm gonna get Indigo Prophecy (already played through and sold the PS2 version a while back) and Kings Quest Collection!

xmiyux

What all is in the King's Quest Collection? (I ask because i am behind work filters and can't hit up Steam )

Also, has anyone played the Wallace and Gromit stuff on Steam? I know the 360 version supposedly had some weird slow-down and chugging along. Is the Steam version better streamlined?

RichC2

KQ:C is the collection with King's Quest I - VII (not VIII, which is better off forgotten anyhow). Nothing else.

xmiyux

Damn. I may have to get that as well.

My wife has discovered a love for hidden object games and adventure games. Unfortunately the point-and-click adventure era is kind of over so going back and snagging these old games i played under the guise of a gift for her is perfect. She enjoys the games, i get to replay them, and i get good husband points.

fumanstan

I think i'm going to grab Torchlight.

Mike UFC

It's an FPS-RPG hybrid that takes place after a second explosion occurs in the Chernobyl area. The reviews on it are generally pretty good and the RPG elements may turn off some folks but for $1.99 it's a steal.

Decker

Thanks. My computer is pretty old and limited in HDD capacity. I'll pass because thanks to Target's clearance section, I'm up to my armpits in mediocre FPS games for the 360 and PS3 already.

darkside

Picked up Stalker and the Lucas Arts adventure pack. Amazing sale.

PerryD

I picked up a few games, but I'm having trouble downloading them since their servers are too busy. I guess that's a good problem for them to have.

maingon

Well I got

Borderlands DLC $6.00
Lucas Arts Adventure pack 2.49
Sniper Elite 1.99
Stalker Clear Sky 4.99
Star Wars Republic Commando 4.99


Gonna probably get a few more games depending what deals tomorrow and so on. I am thinking of getting Titan Quest Gold for 9.99

weak Deals today. ID Superpack sounds good, but to me those older FPS arent fun anymore, To me playing them today wrecks the great memories I have of them.

What is Cogs? Anyone played it? Sounds like a puzzler.

RichC2

Cogs looks like Pipe Dream (or the Bioshock hacking game) crossed with a tile slide puzzle. There's a demo available.

maingon

I picked up Battlefield 2 collection sweet deal

xmiyux

Thanks - definitely not interested then.

The tile-slide puzzle on Dragon Age has me almost ready to smash a controller and that is just one puzzle.

RichC2
