Also on the SC4 bandwagon. Even though I have a hard copy of the game I'd rather have it with Steam.. Man I hope Maxis is working on a SC5, these games are so great.

jasper1605 · May 5, 2011, 12:47 AM

I like SC 3000 the best out of the series. But I definitely picked up SC4 for the 5 bucks today!

manofthem · May 5, 2011, 02:05 AM

Is Sim City 4 worth a good game, worth $5? I don't think I've played one since Sim City 2000...

Raijian · May 5, 2011, 11:52 AM

Thanks for the heads up, I picked it up earlier today.

WhiteLotus · May 5, 2011, 04:23 PM

If I remeber rightly there are many issues with steams simcity4 deluxe. I bought it when it went on sale a few months ago and it would not run longer than 10minutes before crashing. So I went and bought XLCities.

Just a heads up, though there might have been some kind of patch or something by now.

yup ever since I discovered the 9.99 rack at stores i always had a hard time buyign games at full price. Now with steam you don't even have to wait as long for it to hit the 9.99 rack and most of the time can pick them up for much less than 10$

Best thing about it is, it's the only platform where you get to increase the graphics quality of a game as you upgrade your system.

I even tend to grab titles that are ridiculously taxing on a system purely because they are at the right price and I know eventually I will max them out.

Metro 2033 is still waiting to be played because of that reason.

Arciks · May 6, 2011, 05:05 PM

Is mass effect 2 any good, or atleast better than first? I liked the 1st one.Jst wnat to hear your opinion before get it.

digibucc · May 6, 2011, 05:08 PM

i liked it. it was simpler, but not dumbed-down too much.
the story is where it's at. they removed planet driving so that sucks.

i got it on xbox, and was thinking of getting pc - to continue my me1 save -
i just don't have the time. still, i recommend the game for sure.

your right, dunno what happened when i loaded the page at that time (i already have them both so i won't be buying them)

RejZoR · May 6, 2011, 05:34 PM

Crap, missed the Mass Effect. Couldn't decide if i should buy it or not. Anyway...

yogurt_21 · May 6, 2011, 07:51 PM

funny that both mass effect and crysis went on sale earlier this year at higher percent off's. 2 more days left in the ea games sale.

naraku · May 6, 2011, 07:55 PM
