For some reason I've been downloading and buying a lot of pc games from steam the last few weekends. They just have the greatest weekend deals on games I've been dying to play and downloading from steam is just so frickin' sweet! Though I do thing that steam is a bit bloated as an application... This weekend I got the Rockstar Collection (deal is valid until monday...) including these games: Grand Theft Auto 3, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Manhunt, Max Payne, Max Payne 2, Midnight Club 2, Grand Theft Auto, Grand Theft Auto 2, Wild Metal. My first game downloads are San Andreas, Max Payne II and Midnight Club 2 (I actually know nothing about this game I remember playing GTA 3 quite a lot back in the days so I'm looking forward to both Vice City and San Andreas. The price was $43 (including vat)!!! Last week I got the ID Super Pack including these games: Quake III Arena, Wolfenstein 3D, Ultimate DOOM, Final DOOM, DOOM II, QUAKE, QUAKE II, QUAKE II Mission Pack: The Reckoning, QUAKE II Mission Pack: Ground Zero, QUAKE III: Team Arena, HeXen, HeXen: Deathkings of the Dark Citadel, Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders, Spear of Destiny, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, QUAKE Mission Pack 2: Dissolution of Eternity, QUAKE Mission Pack 1: Scourge of Armagon, DOOM 3, HeXen II, DOOM 3 Resurrection of Evil, Master Levels for Doom II and Commander Keen. That's a lot of good games! I was especially longing for Quake, Quake III and Doom III. I never really got into Quake II... but I'll probably give it another try! I also wanted to try out the Commander Keen series, mostly to look back at the first ID Games. For all this I paid $43 (including vat). Some other recent game downloads from steam are DeusEx (I completely missed this classic game) and hacker game Uplink and Darwinia by indie game developer Introversion Software. One might wonder a bit how steam can sell games so cheap... good for consumers I guess and the games with deals on them are often not the newest releases so the original developers/publishers probably have already got their fair share. Harder to know about the indie games on steam though... But I guess they have massive volumes of sales and digital download sure p0wns retail. I guess I have pc game downloads to last me a liftime now, especially in the pace I'm playing I'll try to get some more time playing games, autumn is coming so the lawn should at least stop growing soon. |
