Thanks for the answers. I'm not a huge racing fan, but I liked the old Need for Speed games, and I had a lot of fun with Flatout (which I got here on GOG). I guess I'll go for GRID, mostly because it has more options in racing styles and cars. I also got Burnout Paradise from Steam last week, so I guess I'll be set with arcade racing games for a while. ;-)

I played it before the patch which seems to fix many of the issues I had with it. Then the co-op was not bad but you wouldn't be missing out on something awesome for $5, especially since the community wasn't really big enough to always get a co-op game where you left off. The rest of the game was mediocre or bad. Now maybe it's worth it and perhaps more.

No point in playing CSS with this update... The game is SHIT. Improvements, my ass.
God dammit Valve, you fucked up HL2 because of the Mac crap, now CSS?

WOOT! Steam sale!
Okay, I want to play this game and wanted to know what ya'll think of it? It looks like a standard shooter to me and I just need something different to shoot out.

Whatchoo talkin' 'bout? CS:S is way better after the update.

Go and buy it. I will buy them too, $2 for 2 game and I know that games are good. Not awesome but good.

The Call of Duty pack is way too tempting. Everything except MW2 for under €30? Sold.

Remember with these Steam sales the 'one day' deals are just all the normal sale titles reduced even further. Just wait it out until the last day.

Links for a better visualization, it was only two publishers promo. (I wonder if the Kalypso titles will be discounted on GOG tomorrow...)

meh, I've paid $2 or $2.50 at the last sale, won't pay almost $7 for it now.
At least it looks like a big update for CS:S, not only achievements. I haven't played it, just read the changes.
Bought both, since seems like GOG will take years to get these... got tired of waiting. :(
Here, I've made a thread for it since it's a week long sale. Chautemoc will be happy with the clean thread here. ;)

Haha I wouldnt mind, but good idea.

Those Dawn of War deals on Gamersgate are strangely priced. The gold version is listed with the same price as the platinum one, the Dark Crusade expansion or Soulstorm (all at 4.97 euros).
On the other hand the Complete pack (the platinum version + Soulstorm) sells for 22.47.
So Dark Crusade is either worth nothing or around 5 euros, Soulstorm is either worth 5 or 16.5 euros.
Is this a mistake or have they completely screwed up their pricing? Right now there's no reason anybody would buy anything except the Platinum version.

What's with Bioshock 2 requirements. No not the system specs the drm.
from: http://store.steampowered.com/app/8850/
In addition to the steam client:
Other Requirements: Initial installation requires one-time internet connection; Ability to save game, earn achievements, receive title updates and online play requires log-in to Games for Windows LIVE; software installations required including Microsoft Visual C++2008 Runtime Libraries, Games for Windows LIVE client, Games for Windows LIVE Client Patch, Sony DADC SecuROM, Microsoft DirectX.
Needing to run two clients simultaneously + securom to play = no thanks, I'll pass.

CSS related: I don't like what they did with CSS physics. When you bump into a friendly guy, the game starts to behave strange. Its quite bad. Also, sometimes models are mixed up, for instance, a T player can have a CT model and opposite.

What's the difference between the two Gothic 3 versions? Both are DRMed?
And there's Gothic 3 on steam too, http://store.steampowered.com/app/39500/ , which I don't know which version it is.
And DW2 was released like what? 15 days ago? And it's already $12 off. A shame.
