    SPAZ is up on The Steams for 60% off, at $4. If some bro wants it I've also got a 50% off coupon to knock it down to $2.

    I thought so too. Then I replayed it with a 5x monsters mod and it was MUCH better. The biggest problem is that in most areas you have a max of around 5 or 6 enemies at a time. That's fine if its a Diablo 1 style game, but Diablo 2 style is all about having 50 enemies on the screen and barely surviving while blowing 20 up with every attack. This also makes the game significantly more difficult, which is much needed.

    Still a really drawn out game though, but I use speed hacks on most every game and set things to 1.5x speed or so. I also would never replay the same character on a higher difficulty, but I never had the patience to do that with Diablo 1/2 either so take that for what its worth.

    I wouldn't mind getting the coupon. I'm on the fence with that game, but for $2 I'd have to buy it. Steam id is theticktockman

    It's started -- but it's $13.50ish versus $10. I opted for Dead Island for $10 via New Egg, instead.

    Eh. Broke down and bought it at that price. Small enough difference I won't worry about it since I like that style of game anyway. They had the deluxe edition for the same $13.50 price, however it looks like you don't get FE and SE on your Steam account, and they don't show up on your Getgamesgo purchase list. Sent 'em a support ticket, mainly hoping for them to appear on Steam since, well, Steam, but if they gimme downloadable copies from Getgamesgo that's still better than me digging for my CDs if I ever wanna play the non-HD versions again for wacky gravity.

    Might be getting SPAZ , still got a couple of hours to decide if it's worth the price equivalent of 2 liters of fuel.

    I would have gotten it if the Amazon $5 coupon applied to it.

    Haven't played it yet, but I'd be willing to bet it's shit just like DNF.

    Fortunately DNF entered in to the rare zone of "So bad it's fun to laugh at it" for me, the only game to do so (As far as I can remember) apart from Dragon Age 2. I'll probably enjoy this. Your mileage may vary of course.

    It's three hours max and has driving sequences as long as the main game. I'd play it for free but not going to pay for it... even as little as $2.50.

    Picked up Dawn of War II: Retribution and the Space Marine game (primarily for the multiplayer; and also from another site for cheaper). There are rumors that THQ is in serious trouble and I really do not doubt it. I just hope Relic makes it out okay as they make some damn good RTS's.

    I always wondered if that was you on the forums (assuming you use Metro there too). Good to see a fellow CAG.

    Magicka is down to $2.49. The complete Magicka Collection @ $6.24. Is it worth the money? Did the bugs were fixed?
