Spring RTS Engine

The series and publisher packs are what im looking at. Anyone buying anything?

nah, already have 3 games still in their shrink wrap.

Which ones?

I got Space Pirates and Zombies the other day for a couple bucks, its fantastic.

The Magicka Collection is currently $6.24 and includes all the DLC previously released... I haven't had the chance to go through Vietnam or the other releases, if someone wants to join up my nick is maackey on steam :)

Shogun 2 is also $7something. and very well worth the money.

Brutal legend
muramasa the demon blade
front mission 4

THQ, strategy first, and paradox all games each 75$. Worth it?
I once played medieval TW and it really had no game play. Did that change with Shogun? i mean what kind of strategies do you use? besides charge the rear.

I wasn't a huge fan of medieval 2 except the Third Age mod which is an EPIC total conversion that turns Europe into Middle Earth and knights and spearmen into trolls and dwarves.

Shogun 2 has much improved AI (they can even invade by the sea ) they have the ability to fortify themselves on forested hills and move their spearmen to intercept your cavalry charge on their archers. I actually haven't played it in a while, I've been swamped with school and some real crappy IRL stuff, but its definitely a well polished game that builds upon the previous TW games. That said the combat isn't wildly different than the other games from what I recall.

For under 8 bucks though... even a stingy bastard like me couldn't resist. But I really enjoy the TW games.

If you have the time to play all 163 games... at $225 total, averaging $1.38 per game isn't too scruffy. I personally wouldn't buy any of the big packs. They usually have lots of fluff and junk I'd never play.

nothing really interesting on steam right now... that 50% sots2 offer makes me a sad panda because I paid full for this broken late alpha

Same for Civ V. And then noone will mod in the most basic of automation improvements available in a free clone called C-evo. Means the game is too much work and i can't play it. Seriously the developers are trying to make a poor product.

So civ v has reminded me that its a very bad idea to buy a game before playing it and i that i might as well pay the better price for a good game.

im quite enjoying Civ V

Civ 5 major let down imo.

Went through all the steam games couldn't find anything truly interesting to get.

enjoyed dnf, playing through the new dlc arc next :)

smoth is like booooooom tit shot!

I picked up a few things... enjoyed Solar 2, Nuclear Dawn, Dungeons Of Dredmor?

dredmor looks good
Now if only it was an engine with easy modality it would revive the nethack genera.

get FM5 instead, it's a whole lot better than FM4.

the translation is almost complete too

Shogun 2: Total War is pretty fun and addictive as hell. Except for the goddamn CONSTANT crashes.

I don't like downloading games via torrents, like I actually bought the fm4 game, not dled.
