timppu: Meh, pass. Nothing that I really want at this point, especially in a form of mere Steam keys. Voting with my wallet.

I haven't yet installed the GOG versions of Tropico Reloaded and Tropico 3... but do they really require a Kalypso account?

Iain: On the Steam versions of Tropico 3 & 4 you have to sign up to a Kalypso account and then put in your key for each game when you start for the first time to register it and allow you to actually play it.

GOG version I don't honestly know but I should imagine they will have took stuff like that out so you can literally just play it like any other game from here.
I guess I could test that later today, if I remember. I'd be quite surprised, and miffed, to find out the GOG versions require login to Kalypso servers. :)

UPDATE: With regard to my earlier post about Anna, users on the Steam forums have confirmed that the Linux version is DRM-free.

Just letting you know, if anyone's interested. :-)

EDIT: DRM-free, apart from the Steam client, that is, before anyone picks me up on that. Haven't tried running the game without the client yet.

Actually only Those titles use the Kalypso launcher :

If you're a fan of scrolling shooters, should Sine Mora be an instabuy? It's pretty, and it's by Suda51's company but Suda51 also has a habit of warping genre expectations in odd ways a bit.

I wrote a review on GamersGate about this game, expressing exactly what I think of it... (:P), here:

Is not bad, but is not for all fans of "shoot'em ups".

So you still need a Kalypso account to play it in Windows?

Yes, every time you start the game you need to log on the Kalypso account.
Also when I want to quit the games (Exit), I am asked: Are you sure? Yes, No"
Clicking on YES doesn't work :)) I have to use Alt+F4 to exit the game.

Thanks for the info. I'll wait for a sale on Desura instead then.

Okay, fixed my post a bit, thanks. :)

Looks like this would mainly be interesting for Supreme Commander and Darksiders2. Unfortunately, I already have the former...

No music? Weird.

No music. The HubbleBubble appears to go a bit flat at the moment.

I might take the bundle, but I'm not very sure if I want the BTA or not. I know I want Supreme Commander. And I'd like Arcania (no expansion though :() and I'm not sure about Darksiders 2. The reviews were not really favorable.
