)

Darknova · Feb 27, 2009, 05:54 PM

I wish Valve would stop doing this....I'm broke!

3870x2 · Feb 27, 2009, 06:08 PM

$5? lol, ill buy it for you, you pay me back $7. how about that?

LiNKiN · Feb 27, 2009, 06:13 PM

Good fun in multiplayer. One of the few games Ive actually seen performance benefits on DX10.

TheMailMan78 · Feb 27, 2009, 06:14 PM

Bought. Thanks!

richardbel · Feb 27, 2009, 06:23 PM

wow thats very cheap what a bargain..

TRIPTEX_CAN · Feb 27, 2009, 06:25 PM

Are people playing still playing multiplayer on this game? I'd consider buying it if MP is fun.

Last time I checked (about 2-3 weeks ago) the answer was no. Hopefully this will spark an interest and get some servers going again.

EviLZeD · Feb 27, 2009, 06:32 PM

Nice that deals too good to miss

Did everyone move on to LP:Colonies then?

iStink · Feb 27, 2009, 07:21 PM

I always heard such bad things about this game, but for 5 bucks, i'll try it. I had the demo for a little while but it kept locking the computer up. This was long ago, i'm sure drivers fixed that...

Easy Rhino · Feb 27, 2009, 07:54 PM

i actually really enjoyed the multiplayer demo on the ps3. perhaps i will get this. if a bunch of us TPUers buy it we can all play together which will make it more fun.

I havnt seen many good reviews myself but for that price worth checking out especially as it would be alot more expensive in the shops.

MadClown · Feb 27, 2009, 11:45 PM

I have colonies, ive allready had 360 assmonkeys bitch at me for being on the pc, lolz, fun game, cant wait for Lost Planet 2.

MKmods · Feb 28, 2009, 12:12 AM

thx BrooksyX, got a couple for friends.

KieranD · Feb 28, 2009, 12:22 AM

in the UK its £3.50 now that is a mega steal, i know its a bit average but for that price im willing to forgive its downfalls

not bad game could be better but as i said £3.50 is a steal so might as well buy it

olithereal · Feb 28, 2009, 04:56 AM

Ima get it too, at that price it's a steal.

Easy Rhino · Feb 28, 2009, 05:39 AM
