I got the Commandos pack. Figured for $3.75 I might get around to them.............eventually.

I'm tempted, but I highly doubt it will even run lol.

I am passing on gta 4 because the first thread in the steam forum is a mile long on how to get it to run...doesn't look good. Crap deals today maybe tomorrow borderlands will be the deal

I haven't read the thread you're talking about, but it runs fine. The only tricky part was when I lost my saved games, but that has since been remedied.

Picked up the Xcom pack finally. Installed the original and starting downloading. Looked away for a second and it was done. Only 16.5mb. For the whole game.

Here's to another day I'll be waiting at the computer at 12pm, as if these games will sell out.

Just looks like a thread of compiled issues, that isn't a list of steps you need to go through to get it running. I have the GTA 4 Episodes on my PC and that works without problem.

The game is CPU heavy. Most newb PC gamers only focus on the GPU, which gets them by with most games. However, when they hit a game like GTA4 it cripples their system. That is what happens when you buy a 75 dollar AMD processor and then put a 5870 in there. Sure Oblivion and CoD4 run fine, but Crysis and GTA4 cripple it.

I run it on decent setting with my setup, but the game really cries out for a quad core from what I have read.

Oh man...thank god I lucked out and bought the $100 AMD processor.

Lol, the game needs an i5, in all honesty, to get good FPS.

Looks like I'm going to get Flatout Ultimate Carnage (those games are just plain fun) and am looking into Red Faction.

[Farmer_BOB]

I'm thinking Torchlight (this is the cheapest I've ever seen it), Red Faction, and Flatout. I'll go to work first and ponder again when I get home. LoL

[Astros Fan]

Oh nice..... Red faction for five bucks

Is it coop?

I loved the first Guild game. Guild 2 got some mediocre reviews (low 60s), but it has been patched quite a bit. Maybe for $6 I should just give it a go.

I purchased a 3.1ghz dual core.

i unlocked it to quad core over-clocked to 3.6ghz. I should be able to manage.
