picked up empire total war, one of the only ones I didn't already have, been waiting for a deal on it like this to buy it.

edit:

looks like rometotal war gold is up on steam for 2.50$ might pick it up just for not having to hassle with discs or updates. (have both rome and barbarian on disc) that collection pack deal would be more tempting to me if I hadn't snagged empire for 7.50$ last night. still tho, don't have napoleon and it includes shogun 2 and the package is cheaper than both of thos seperate.

double edit: just picked up rome total war gold, much easier than discs for 2.50$ and then snaged alexander for 4.99 (seperate was cheaper than the 9.99 combo lol) so 15$ between yesterday and today on what 4 games? man I love steam.

Thats pretty expensive for a game that is that old. I remember playing this on my old packard bell back in the day. I dont even remember what OS it had.

Honestly, I'm not. I wouldn't pay $60 for a console port with worse graphics on release than its predecessor. I played the XBL demo, and it was garbage, and I also played the PC demo, and I couldn't join a server without the exe erroring out. No biggie

STEAM has a game called Dogfighter on sale for $2.50 that ain't bad at all it's a quick casual online or not Flying shooter that is just plain fun and if you don't agree you will only lose $2.50 but I like it...

I don't know that it is an apt compare. It didn't keep me interested enough to see that it was, I suppose.

I wouldn't think it could come close to zelda's epicness. I have also heard comparisons to GoW. But if this game is just like a Prince of Persia/ GoW type deal Im not interested. Bought like every PoP game on sale during christmas, dont need another one.

I saw gameplay in a pc shop a couple of months ago and it looked like a half decent game but not worth the full asking price if you know what i mean.

Does anyone know how early before a game is released on steam that you can predownload?

darksiders is defintely a console port. as far the the game goes, i can see where it could be compared to zelda(really, i do) but it does not approach the epicness of zelda - of course, i havent finished it yet either(i think i am 60% through). i've been hitting up bc2 real hard since xmas so...my darksider playtime has suffered. but when i do play it, it is enjoyable. for 75% off, might as well pick it up.
