Anyone know of a good game on steam for £4.02 or less? I'm thinking adventure or RPG but I can't see any good ones.

Crashpunk 10-31-2011 10:27 AM

Thats such a random price STM.

MeechMunchie 10-31-2011 10:37 AM

These are
all good
RPGs or
adventure games
that are
currently on sale
for less
than £4.

Okay, Bioshock isn't. But come on, it's a good price for Bioshock.

Not me. I always have the most points at the end of the game.

Add me on Steam, OANST. My name's porci_jenson

It keeps telling me that you don't exist.

Edit: Also, since I have not actually paid money for a game yet they won't let me send friend requests. You'll have to friend me. I'm oanst. Because I'm nothing if not consistent.

I got terraria MM, and Binding of Issac just doesn't look fun to me. It literally has to be £4.02 or less so I can't get bioshock, (yes I know CP, it is a funny number but that's all I'm left with after I buy myself and my mate Terraria, scrounger that she is xD) a vampire game? No thanks, got Amnesia TDD, and I did debate getting the AO AE bundle but I decided against it seeing as I have it for the PS1 and I might as well wait for Abe HD.

I remain unimpressed. ;)

You have to invite me. Also, someone should invite me to the Oddworld group.

However, I'm going back to Indiana tomorrow morning, so I'm not sure it even matters.

You're just difficult.

Also Bioshock (and the sequel) was £3.49. Maths obviously isn't your strong point.

Just look here. Everything here I at one point considered worth buying.

Done.

STM 10-31-2011 12:03 PM

Aww I had enough for Gemini Rue, or Limbo, maybe I'll wait and see if they put Portal on offer.

MeechMunchie 10-31-2011 12:56 PM

A.R.E.S.

First game I've bought on Steam that I've been genuinely dissatisfied with. It's awful. Thank God it was just part of a bundle.

Daxter King 10-31-2011 01:43 PM

I thought Binding of Isaac was always $5? Anyways Im ultra tempted to jump on the Amnesia deal, even though I wont be able to play it until I get a mouse or wired controller. Still, I'd feel like a chump if I ever bought it for more than $4 after this.

STM 10-31-2011 02:44 PM

It's an amazing game! I'd suggest it to you.

Shush, I'm trying to get people to buy it.

Dude, you've got the rest of your natural life to play it. It's only on sale for a few days.

Though I doubt this is the lowest price it will ever be, of course.

I couldn't see if MM had already posted this. I'm probably going to buy it tomorrow.

Humble Voxatron Debut!

Playing good old PS1 game! :)

StrangerEastwood 11-01-2011 09:24 AM

SotN, a classic. I love Alucard's "WHAT!?" when you put axe armor on him. lol

Now you also get The Binding of Isaac and Blocks That Matter!

MeechMunchie 11-01-2011 11:44 AM

Issac has a proper gameplay trailer now, so just repostin'.


Hazel-Rah 11-01-2011 01:09 PM

A nostalgia bomb just blew up in my brain...

I'm in Sega Heaven. <3

STM 11-01-2011 02:35 PM

Okay MM, I took your advice, and I bought Issac...I don't want to put it down =(

Thanks for suggesting it, I thought it would be crap.

MeechMunchie 11-01-2011 02:39 PM

Those Asteroids-stlyle shoot-em-ups are possibly the only kind of game I'm actually good at, so it was a good buy for me.

The achievements don't work though.

Dynamithix 11-01-2011 02:45 PM

I'm getting the bundle this Friday when I get some money. (I hope it's still available then. If not, I'll have to get it earlier.)

Also, I just 'defeated' Riddler in Arkham City. Found 400 of those goddamn riddles and I still have a few to find. The last ones are either super tricky to get or just plain confusing. Have to look them up sometime.

Gotta play through New Game Plus now.

JennyGenesis 11-02-2011 07:34 AM

WRC 2,
It was never going to beat Forza 4 in sales considering it was released on the same day but it is still fairly enjoyable,

The biggest improvement over last years games are the graphics, WRC 2 is still one of the worst looking Xbox games ever but the graphics definitely look better.

When I bought the game, the guy that served me said "We have had nobody trade in this game yet" Now it's either the fact that the game is just that damn amazing nobody wants to get rid of their copy, or I am the only person to buy the game from that particular store? Well this photo I took below of the world XP leaderboard should give you your answer... and the fact that I have not seen more than 14 people playing online...

WRC 2010 and WRC 2 do have mediocre reviews but I do get a lot of enjoyment out of these games despite how very dated they feel.

Mac Sirloin 11-02-2011 10:13 AM

I found Abe's Oddysee and Exoddus downtown for PS1 for about 13$ total. They look like 42 inch plasma jpeg artifacts. Now I need to find a crummy old Cable TV to play them on properly.

SgabbitGabbiar 11-02-2011 10:18 AM

i play with Oddworld and samp (gta san andreas multiplayer , only for pc)

Disgruntled Intern 11-03-2011 10:05 AM

Rage. Major dislike. The controls feel pc-ish, but not in a good way. And the backgrounds feel...I don't know, pre-rendered? I feel the same playing rage as I did playing the old Resident Evil games. Like my character is walking on an oil painting rather than being a part of the environment. Does that make sense? Like...Floatey.

Only part of the game that I actually liked was the fact that John Goodman does voice work.

Mr. Bungle 11-03-2011 10:08 AM

My friend lent me Batman: Arkham Asylum/City. Currently playing through Asylum, enjoying the fuck out of it. The Scarecrow room was intense.

StrangerEastwood 11-03-2011 10:19 AM

Wait 'till you dig into City. Holy fuck. The replay value on it is ridiculous. Anyone get Nightwing yet, btw? Just downloaded him.

Dynamithix 11-03-2011 10:24 AM

Not getting Nightwing before it's on sale. 560MSP for one playable character with 2 new challenge maps and hard as hell achievements just isn't worth it. I'll wait for story DLC if they make any.

Also, talking of Arkham City, I'm missing 2 riddler trophies! Fuck, can't seem to nail the physical challenge where you have to get an enemy hit another enemy by shooting that electricity thing into them.

I got all character trophies, all character bios, one concept art missing and almost beat New Game plus. After that, I'll dig into the challenge mode more. Some of the predator challenge medals are ridiculously hard...

StrangerEastwood 11-03-2011 10:31 AM

I got the electric one during the fight with the joker, try zapping the big fellow with one arm. And Nightwing is kickass, btw. A good balance between bats and catwoman.

Jordan 11-04-2011 08:33 AM

Because I'm always late for things, I've just got into Borderlands. I could see it becoming one of my favourite games, possibly because of the wind turbines (LOVE) and the overall atmosphere and look of the game. Very Oddworldian in some parts.

Crashpunk 11-04-2011 09:40 AM

I've had a break from OoT cause the boss in the Forest Temple is annyoing as hell.
Just finished playing through Half-Life 2 for my Let's Play and started to play Zelda NES on a emulator.

StrangerEastwood 11-04-2011 01:12 PM

Ah, nes zelda...good frustrating memories. lol I'm playing Breath of Fire IV. Still best sprites around.

I started a new game on that yesterday. :D

StrangerEastwood 11-04-2011 02:33 PM

Sweet. Fou Lou is still one of the most badass characters in gaming.

Jordan 11-04-2011 02:40 PM

I agree. He's one bad guy I always feel a lot of sympathy for. I find it sad that he's the antagonist.

StrangerEastwood 11-04-2011 02:47 PM

Reminds me of poor Lynx in Chrono Cross, And Magus in Chrono Trigger for that matter.

Jordan 11-04-2011 02:49 PM

I can't relate to Lynx cause I haven't played CC but Magus yes definitely.

StrangerEastwood 11-04-2011 02:51 PM

I hope you play Cross, the plot twist regarding Lynx...Holy shit. Plus lots of tie ins to Trigger, if you know it well.

MeechMunchie 11-04-2011 04:08 PM

Blinding of Issac.

Unlocked Eve, Judas, found The Womb and defeated Mom's Heart in one (epic) playthrough.

It's times like this that I wish the achievements worked.
