Agreed. I personally wouldn't classify that in a standard 'gaming' genre. More of an interactive graphic novel if you ask me.

Dang thanks kiwi, but i'm not at my computer and they'll be gone in two ticks.

Lets me say it like this. SRTT base (on Normal difficulty) is very well balanced for the game it tries be.

See quote below. Blood sucking replaces the of so fun neck snap of human shields. The full heath restore makes difficult encounters trivial (it isn't trivial to avoid neck-bite/neck-snap when using human shields). The cash and rep bonuses unbalance the game.

There's a nice version of the mod that makes all the bloodsucker pack stuff purchaseable which I think is the better way to handle it (or through the in-game cheats menu).

The Bloodsucker Pack includes: New Dracula Blood Sucking Skill (performed by executing your Human Shield) VIP Cash Boost Bonus (25% increase to all cash received) VIP Hourly Income Bonus (Hourly City Income of $2,500) VIP Respect Bonus (20% bonus to all Respect earned) VIP Scavenger Bonus (Four times as much cash is dropped by people) The Bloodsucker Pack releases on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Steam, and OnLive on or around February 28th for 160 MS Points or $1.99.[1] With the Dracula Blood Sucking skill executing a human shield by pressing [f] will fully restore your health. This skill is very useful for staying alive when you are surrounded by many powerful enemies.

Again, SRTT base is nicely balanced.

Copy and pasted this key. Said I activated NecroVisioN Lost Company, then prompted me to download Star Wolves 3: Civil War.

SW3 is in my library and NLC isn't. Very weird, but thank you!

I agree about the show being overratted not sure about the game haven't played it yet, but the comic is NOT overrated. It deserves every praise it gets. So if you have only checked out the game and show I recommend you give the books a try.

That makes it sound like Walking Dead is right up my alley then, as I'll put up with mediocre / poor gameplay if the game spins a good yarn.

So basically my choices are either stick with the console version of SRT3 and be locked into an easier mode or return the console version and be able to turn it off on the PC version, bah that's rather annoying. I guess I could just try turning up the difficulty level on the PS3 version.

Try as I might, I just have never been able to get into comics / graphic novels, I've always found them an awkward half-measure between fully animated TV / films and novels/short stories.

Yep. Which is fine, but nothing I'd pay even the $12 sale price for -- even though the story can vary I believe the ending is always the same.

Indeed. If you're fine with that I'd definitely say it's one of the better stories I've seen in a video game... but... again 'game' is stretching, it's basically a graphic novel.

To counter that just a wee bit I will say that some people aren't particularly arsed with a challenge for SR3 and just want to run around beat people with giant dildos and otherwise experience completely ludicrous scenarios.

Just sayin'

The dildo bat was something I outgrew very quickly, though I did have to show my gf just for the lulz

Upgrading your pistols to highest rank though, with the explosive bullets, made the game so much more fun for me.

I'd say yes. The only thing I didn't 'like' about TWD...was I couldn't keep my thumb on the page I had just read so as to easily go back to it if I didn't like the choice I made.

Erm, actually deciding to play one of the games I bought.

In the Prince of Persia franchise, what's the order? Does it even matter?

It's actually why I'm deciding to play a single player game, so I can tab in and out every 15 minutes so I don't miss anything

I probably shouldn't tell other people that...

Oh man, I have to go out for a couple of hours I'm going to miss some major deal!!! If it's Fallen Enchantress for $6 someone buy me a copy!

So question for those that were able to grab the Bethesda pack. I had the package ordered and a confirmation email from them just needed to go through paypal to finalize the sale. I was never able to get it to go through. But I still have the email and the package is still there on my account saying pending. Would I still be able to checkout with it and finalize the sale with paypal now the site is back up??

Picked up
The Walking Dead $12.49
Saints Row 3 The full package $7.49

Release Order is:
Sands of Time -> Warrior Within -> Two Thrones -> 2008 -> The Forgotten Sands

Story Wise 2008 is its own thing and Forgotten Sands is set before Warrior Within.
