Still got that 2nd code? I could take it off your hands :)

I bought the Platinum pack much cheaper earlier in the year. $10 at most so wait as it might be in a franchise sale later in the week.
IMO It's because it's simply not as good. There are less options in F&S and in all honesty it feels exactly like what it is, a mod. Warband is the much better overall game.

Good call. Yeah, I'll wait for 1C to show up on daily deals... If not, oh well.

I bloody hate Trine. Just thought you should know not everyone likes it ;)

If you like platform games with beautiful graphics and music, then yes, you should buy Trine.

I'm just baffled that you didn't get it in the last humble indie bundle.

I got it, but still haven't played it. :P

Point taken. Are you guys hiring?

If you haven't bought it already, i loved mr. robot. you should really try the demo, i tried it, played it for a few minutes and bought the game for the full price immediately. i'd buy it even if it were 20€. a friend of mine loved it too. it's a simple, old school game with characters brimming with personality and charm, and full of sci fi references (even the robot's name is asimov :)). i found it very relaxing and very fun, and the story is really charming. many people complained about the music being dull and repetitive, i loved it to bits. the fights are done in jrpg style, and don't expect much from them (though it's really fun how all the terms are computer related since you're basically "hacking", you fight worms and viruses, use firewalls to protect yourself, navigate through gpus, cpus, ram etc). but most of the game is about puzzles, exploration and platforming anyway. just try the demo for 5 minutes :)

I remember reading that some of the weapons are really useless.
What kind of weapons should I go for? Rifles? Pistols?
Installing the game now.

Also got Bully and just played it for half an hour. Seems like an interesting game, but once again, it's a terrible console port. Found the controls really unintuitive and I don't have a gamepad (hate them).

Also picked up M&B Warband, but probably won't play that for a while.

Also bought Civ III from Steam a while ago. Why won't GOG get that game instead? :(

I played through Alpha Protocol using only pistols, because, frankly, it becomes quite overpowered by the endgame and it helps keeping me stealthy.

(There's this pistol ability that will kill the hell outa most bosses and subbosses if you use it).

Mr Robot gives the impression it will become deeper than it eventually does. The battles in particular don't change much from the beginning. It has a lot of good 3d box-moving puzzles, though, and it's presented well.

Trine is slightly shallow and repetitive but still good for many hours of platforming. It's gorgeous to look at and listen to. The physics turn straightforward stacking challenges into sandbox fun. They elevate every aspect of the game.

But...I'd have to *cough* wo...

wor.....

wor...

IT'S KILLING ME!!!

Deep breath...

WORK???!??!?!??!!!!

Seriously, though, I'd love to. If I could leave Ireland. And I didn't already have a job working on a cool web site. And I was actually a web dev (as opposed to super-ninja-backend dev).

And I could be bothered.
