Nothing for me today. Waiting for Terraria to be a daily deal.

I found the Rift beta to be the most boring gaming experience ever, but for $10 I might be willing to give it another shot.

I played some rift on a friend's account. It was okay. It would be much better with friends on.

Tag, I'm hoping for 50% off daggerdale or DS3.

i hated the few hours I spent in Rift. I really did not like the soul system and I felt the power base was more of an exercise in micro-management and step by step instructions.

But I hear others like it .

If you wanna try it out I'd be down to play alongside you for some time.

I finally bought something. Got the Farcry pack for $7.50 yesterday. Played both but never finished. Now that my PC has eclipsed both games maybe I'll finish them.

[Spaceman Spiff]

Bought GTA IV SE and Episodes from Liberty City for $9.99 yesterday.

I'm not a fan of the GTA games...at all...but for $10, and with all the good things people have to say about IV, I felt it was worth a shot.

Pretty crappy deals today though, IMHO. At least my wallet gets ONE day's rest, anyway.

Got beat hazard, killing floor and audiosurf. All for under $10. Cool.

Man, that is tempting, but the last thing I need is an MMO to suck me in. If we had like 4-5 sharkies rollin in, I would probably jump haha.

I was considering waiting for that too, but instead I bought for $7.50 on the first day.

With about 24 hrs of total game time so far, I don't regret the extra $2.50.

I'm also playing completely without any reading about the game, to prolong the excitement of trying to figure it all out as I go along. Kind of the opposite of how I played minecraft.

I bought it anyway lol. Gonna take it easy, explore the game world, see the sights. I'll see if that keeps me interested at all.

Rift is pretty cool. Just don't play a warrior :-p. I played one for the first few months, got level 50 and all but quit due to time and enjoyment constraints. I was logging on to farm gold and do dailies by the time I had quit.

Also, the devs have been notorious for over "nerfing" classes. Warrior's were over powered in the first month due to a bug in one of the trees that basically ignored all armor against warrior attacks. Instead of fixing the bug and seeing things through they fixed the bug and nerfed all warrior damage. Same thing happened to rogues.

Overall it's a fun game. If you can manage the time sync that it can become. You can get to 50 inside the trial month for sure.

Well I've got a level 7 Defiant Rogue on Freeholme. Just made it past the intro zone and closed my first rift in the "real" world.

My advice is to take it slow and enjoy the leveling process. Some of the quest lines are quite good if you take the time to get into them.

I bought the quake pack..complete nostalgia purchase. I never finished quake 2..I think I moved onto half life by the time I got around to it. The quake shotgun is still the best shotgun in any game IMO.
