No it wasn't even a respected long time MMO, it was some Kickstarter thingamajig.

Yeah, but they are individuals. You will not achieve a success if 3 people pay 2000 bucks for your stuff ;P it's rather better to have 10k people pay 2 bucks. And from what I've read, Marvel Heroes isn't that popular game anyway.

I was saying about Disney and their know-how in gaming industry mostly in regard to Lucas Arts. I don't think we ever see them released, with people like the geniuses in Disney Marvel are pulling the strings.

If you haven't voted yet in the new community vote and don't have a preference, please vote Expeditions Conquistador. $5 for it is too good to pass up even if I'd prefer it on GOG.
I'm afriad Risen 2 will win based on brand recognition or CK2 based on cards even though both are always on sale. This is the lowest price I've seen for EC since its a newer game. Keeping fingers crossed but the odds are low.

My guess is that it will go on a daily or flash deal either way, since most of the community votes so far have been in one. So even if it doesn't win this vote, it will probably go to -75%

Again with the terrible (repeating) sales.

Tomorrow's headliner is Skyrim.

Getting Sang-Froid, was waiting for that one.

Hmm, good price on Torchlight 2, but Far Cry 3 is also tempting.

Risen also at 75% off

Facepalm!

The more memes are generated about Steam sales the worse the sales are. Not sure if a coincidence...

Is X-com worth $5? Is the DLC worth anything?

Assuming you are asking about XCOM and not X-Com, I did enjoy it and I'd say $5 is quite a bargain. As for the DLCs, the Elite Soldier pack is more or less only cosmetic, and the Slingshot one gives you a few different council missions that will give you quite a bit better rewards than the standard ones. On the other hand, you will be facing harder opponents sooner than normally, but it's worth the risk. You can always skip them of course.

Is Risen 2 DLC worth it?

The new one? Yeah, it's very good. Certainly worth $5.
