Jeez....when did STALKER get into Steam? I'm on my way.

pbmaster · Dec 25, 2007

You can get quite a few games through Steam that I wouldn't have thought about.

Grings · Dec 25, 2007

superb, i just sent presents to a few of my friends, and got myself the orange box

JC316 · Dec 25, 2007

Those are actually really good prices on those games. I am not a fan of Steam, but that is tempting to even me.

rikuete · Dec 25, 2007

Is this available only in North America? It doesn't give any discount for me atleast =/

Grings · Dec 25, 2007

it worked for me (U.K)

It works universally. You just have to pay the dollar equivalent of its price in your home currency using your credit card.

Great game... really realistic driving...

Looks fantastic in 1920X1200 all maxxed and machine isnt even breaking a sweat... smooooooth

Darksaber · Dec 25, 2007

I just bought Two Worlds...seems to be a steal for a mere 23 USD incl. Taxes

snuif09 · Dec 25, 2007

hmmmm maybe im going to buy something too

Ripper3 · Dec 25, 2007

Going to buy two copies of Race 07, one for me, one for my brother, so he can play with his new gaming PC

Actually, might also buy myself Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines and X3 Reunion, they're both at $10. This isn't a steal, this is just awesome.

I have loads of games on my steam ac,its a good way to buy em really,if you dont care about the discs.

I have stalker too if anyone fancys some mulitplayer?

btarunr · Dec 25, 2007

^ plus you always have the flexibility of backing up on a CD (Game resources).

Deleted member 24505 · Dec 25, 2007

My steam folder is 30gb+ so its hard to back it all up but i have backed up some games seperate.

The other thing i like is,if you reinstall windows.Just install steam again to your games partition were the steam folder is,and all the games just work again without having to dl them all again.Niiice

btarunr · Dec 25, 2007

Yeah but if your drive goes kaput, 30 GB of data would be too dear. Back-up is insurance....you can always re-download the game resources from Steam though.....30 GB.....make your choice....we're just talking 5 Dual-layer DVDs here

Deleted member 24505 · Dec 25, 2007

I know,i know,i should back it all up.But 30 heffing gb :twitch:

btarunr · Dec 25, 2007

five discs, tigger, that's all five DL DVD's. Saves lot of trouble of re-downloading 30 GB. I'd hate myself after having lost that much data and having to re-download it (and not having made a backup)

bshel · Dec 25, 2007

Valve would have to pay me to use steamy pile of crap, will not install it on my rig under any circumstances.

Deleted member 24505 · Dec 25, 2007

I also bought an XBOX 360 controller for the PC.. works a charm for this game aqs you have the two finger triggers on the controller that allow you to ease the throttle and brakes unlike using the keyboaqrd where its just on and off... get one for this game if you can

InnocentCriminal · Dec 25, 2007

I so wish I was able to get broadband back in time for Yule, but unfortunately that wasn't the case. I'll have to use a friends a PC to see if I can get Opposing Fronts and some others that take my fancy.

Gotta love Steam... now it's not the bile of wank it used to be.
