It runs fine on my rig. It ain't half bad either.
BTW: JUST in case if somone is not following GOG on twitter:
"XIII will be removed from our catalog (stays in your account) in 2 days. Last chance to buy it for $2.99 j.mp/XIIIremov"

Performance is a little rough but it plays well and looks good. Pretty awesome game too, if you can accept it's not like the first ones.
Ok thanks Rohan15 and StingingVelvet :)

Looking at wikipedia it got a pretty good reception, haven't got a Xbox360 so this is my only way of getting it as i have a PS3 but it wasn't released on that.

Is it worth going for Deluxe edition or just normal?

I'm personally going to go with the vanilla version - deluxe is more than double the price and most of the add ons look pretty insubstantial - an infiltration mode, a few weapons and a soundtrack.

Yes i went for the vanilla version too, i read somewhere that you can unlock most of the add ons apart from maybe shadow armour.

If you're a sales collector (aka addict) get the cheaper version, it's good enough for your purchase "fix" - it's at least what I try to do most of the time (I'll never ever be able to play through my backlog anyway). Btw. it's probably not a big pricing error - I bought Conviction a few days ago on Steam for 2,49€

Yeah, I lost that hope around a over a year ago to actually see the end of my back catalog, where most games weigh in with 25hrs+.

so, In that sense:
Steam:
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion® Game of the Year Edition -75%, $5

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind® Game of the Year Edition -75%, $5

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Hearthfire -50% $2,47

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Dawnguard -50% $9.92

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim -50% on Steam and on GG $30
take you pick: :)

Even for $2.50 I don't want Hearthfire. Womp.

Maybe someone wants a nice family, at least in a videogame. ;)
And I don't care about Dawnguard either, vampires and werewolves, ...more boring than Zombies (just my 2cents of course :D / PS: I still was amazed by Bloodlines but that's another story)

Deal:
If you liked McPixel on Steam you should def check out

All GTA games are 75% off on Steam.

Curiously, though, the GTA Complete pack Rockstar usually puts up for sale has been removed from the store. Gee, another shitty tactic. Unsurprised.

Dawnguard has some cool aspects and good quests though. Might not have been worth $20 but it's worth having. Hearthfire is just a house mod.
