Yeah. A one dollar minimum just makes sense.

Why not either wait until it's on sale for $20, or see what sort of DLC shakes out?

Because we as PC gamers need to support Bethesda with early and near full price sales in order to show them and other publishers that it is still viable to develop open world single player RPGs for the PC. Every sale that is not a PS3 or Xbox 360 sale is a score for us. That's why I personally preorder games like Skyrim even if I know I won't likely be getting around to playing them for a while. Iz all about the 'spect and the 'sport, ya know .


Well maybe if they started to make games for pc i would tho all i see is console port , so no support here (full price wise )

Sadly, that won't happen as long as the console versions sell better than the PC versions and that will continue happening if you don't buy the PC versions. Unfortunately, even if you do buy the PC version, the console versions will still outsell the PC version because consoles are more mainstream and accessible. Therefore, if you want Bethesda to start focusing on PC, you will need to both buy the PC versions and stop console gamers from buying the console versions. Good luck.

If we all chip in...we might be able to buy enough weapons-grade uranium for the job! Idea

Considering Albion isn't really a game but a (small) expansion pack...

And one that they are giving away for free to Superbox owners at that.

Hey Jerykk,

Are you testing this mod out? Does it help with your specific town performance issues?

Blue needs a new sale post in today's news.

Amazon has Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition for $7.50 and Dragon Age 2 for $5.

So the $5 question is, is Dragon Age 2 worth $5?

Eh, I'd say it's worth $5. It'll take a few hours before the environmental repetition and wave-based combat starts to become obvious.

Well you've certainly gotten me excited! I think I'll just stop playing everything else and buy DA2! Hahaha_no

Whoohoo! Just picked up Skyrim for $40!

Seems that this should be my last purchase for the Christmas sale period since I got Deus Ex:HR for $10 earlier this morning!!!

I can now sit back and bask in my overloaded games list and wonder when I'll actually get around to playing everything... Sweatdrop

What the Furious2 ? I can't buy Deus Ex:HR at the 9.99 price from Amazon because it's only for US residents!!!

That friggin' sucks ass!
It has been reported by numerous people on the Steam forums that entering a U.S. address from a state without Amazon sales tax such as Florida in your Amazon account as your billing address will overcome that restriction. I personally can't validate that, but those Steam forum posters swear that it worked for them.

Thanks hb3d!

That worked like a charm. Activated it on my Steam account just now!

Prez, you're my candidate for 2012! Thanks for the gift, man.

Creston
I'd vote for him if he was in the race. I'm not sure I much like anyone on either side but what I know of prez I like.

I'm not even American and I'd vote for him!

Strange, I wasn't able to pull up anyone's name through a Steam user search on the website (maybe it's just bombed out right now?), but found Prez and Slashimus through the Blue's group

My library needs nothing, just padding my Steam friends list.

Just pulled the trigger on my first sale item of the season - S.T.A.L.K.E.R. bundle!

Hey I saw your request and accepted you!

A few other folks as well but I didn't recognize their names.

I just bought the Grotesque Tactics bundle. I'd been meaning to grab that...

The first one was alright but had it's fair share of flaws. The side missions were pointless, seeing as there was about 5 different types all repeated. Also the progression curve in the game was terrible. Half way through the game when the super soldiers appear the game gets so frustrating because of the huge difficulty fight. Oh yea don't get me started about the boss fights.

I had no issues with the difficulty. I thought it was very appropriate that things got harder as you went on.

If I want my hand held, I can play Farmville. There were always options for escape and different ways to approach fights. The only 'boss fight' that really had me doing it over was the final one...until I figured out a way to get it done reliably.

Meh. Another completely scripted, completely linear corridor shooter... but this time, you can hack stuff and kill enemies in slightly different ways!

Dude! Cant' you see how very Syndicate-like that is?? It's totally done with loving care and attention to the source material!

Looks good, but that's more of a video diary than a trailer. Especially with all the alpha footage.

Looking forward to this one, even if it gets overshadowed by Mass Effect 3.

Why should it though? They are two completely different games.

I can't see ME3(if I get it) stopping me from playing this. I loved the first one.
