I already decided to wait for the Ultra Complete Gold Edition. Seriously, who release an expansion AFTER the GOTY version?

is there any DLC that is not included in the GOTY Edition?

People have been saying that Korea & Wonders of the Ancient World were omitted from the GOTY edition.

I noticed that the Daily Deal is Blocks That Matter for $1.69. I just wanted to throw a recommendation out there for my fellow CAG's - If you haven't gotten the game from the Humble Indie Bundle, I definitely recommend it at that price. It's a fun puzzle platformer that doesn't go overboard with its challenges.

Picked up the GOTY edition and that extra piece of DLC that's not included.

$14 for the whole thing doesn't seem too bad.

I know, right?

This has long been a problem with the Civilization series. Witness this travesty:

A "gold" edition that came out before the Beyond the Sword expansion. (For you youngsters out there, "gold edition" was the old "GOTY".) It had the first expansion, "Warlords", and the base game.

After BtS, they did finally release a "Complete" edition, but not for a couple of years later. It was so confusing to people who got on board late.

And worst of all, you can still buy this incomplete "gold edition" at Amazon. Insanity, I tell you what.

They did the same thing with Civ 3: A "gold edition" after the "Play the World" expansion but before the "Conquests!" expansion:


And again, you can still buy this half-complete edition, it's $3 at Amazon. Later, after Conquests, a complete edition was realeased (it's awesome).

Still though, now that $10 serial DLC is the norm for PC games, it's not uncommon for gamers to get the base edition today, then rebuy the GOTY version when it's on deep sale just to get the DLC. It's just cheaper than buying all the individual DLC. A lot of people got the Borderlands DLC this way, and I imagine the same for Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

It's all about managing expectations, but Firaxis does indeed play loose and fast with their naming conventions.

I did confirm with the dev a while back that a PC version was coming.

re: InMomentum.

Oh joy another former indie bundle deal of the day.

I know no one has asked, but in case anyone is curious, inMomentum probably isn't worth it at 50% off. I was hoping it would be a spiritual successor to Mirrors Edge, but its not quite there. It has a lot of neat features, but to me, the control felt off. Mirrors Edge had a very intuitive movement to the character, where as inMomentum takes some getting used to.

If youre still intrigued, just grab it from http://www.indiegala.com/ instead. For an extra $3 or so you get the game and a flip ton of other stuff.

Watched the trailer. Reminds me of Armor Games' "Upgrade Complete", which is a joke that wears thin after a while.

That and it is designed for multiplayer but has no community. At least none the last time I played.

All Zombies Must Die! which was released on XBLA and PSN a couple of months ago just hit Steam and is 20% off until March 19th.

I just bought Stacking. I love double fine I was going to wait for a bigger sale on it but those guys deserve my money.

I might pick this up again so my wife and I can try it out with multiplayer, and as such we don't need another copy of the OST. This looks like the best way to go.

Thanks for the heads up!

I did too. It's a fun game. I do make exceptions sometimes to not buyng until 66-75% and I agree these guys deserve support. It's unlikely to go on sale again before the summer sale and a third off for a new release that's already fairly reasonably priced is not bad.

Speaking of Double Fine, I noticed a Double Fine Bundle in the Specials section of the main page. The link doesn't go anywhere, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a future offering.



This reminds of the PC version of Ms. Splosion Man, which appeared as a Steam game (Complete with Steam Achievements, in fact.) but later vanished without a trace.

EDIT: The link now works.
