Well I might finally bite on the RUSE Collection. Seems like a good price with the included DLC and it has been on my wishlist forever.

Edited: Hmmm. I see it requires a Uplay account which is probably why I have yet to buy it.

Yeah, requires Uplay even on Steam. Steam - then Uplay - then you play...

 
Ah, I didn't buy it there.  Too many repeats for so I might pick it up here, though I suspect it will end up in Groupees eventually. 

Edit:

Went ahead and got it with Necronomicon.  1.02 after discount.

Thanks everyone for the heads up about rewarded blue coins expiring a couple pages back. I had 3400 that should have expired earlier this year...but didn't for some reason. I did a crap load of ratings for the games I own at 50 coins a pop and had just enough to get the C&C ultimate pack.

Is it worth getting? Yes. Is this a good price? No.

If this interests you, Keep your eye on the SimBin Mega Bundle. It was just $20 on the SSS, last year it lacked a couple older titles and was ~$24. Totally worth it for a nice big pack of sim racers.

Thanks, will keep an eye on that. Hopefully it dives a few more $ when winter sale rolls around and I'm tired of ETS2, GRID2 and RRU.

I only have GTR2 from Retail - which I bought dirt-cheap when Circuit City was going out of business (like for like $2.50 or something).

And I never even played it.

So, yeah - if you played, how is it?

 
I'm between Happy Tails zoo keeper, animal shelter, my sim aquarium... for my kids... mainly for the youngest one (7 years old). Any recommendations?

Edit: bought My sim aquarium :)

Is it bad that I am tempted to get Gunslinger even though it's only 25% off? Sigh...

lol, I think some of us are more "hardcore" than others, but I usually don't see anything wrong with people who buy games early if they really want to play them right away.

That said, it would be uncagly if you didn't at least use one of us 20%ers to drop the price to 8.97 - which is 40% off.

So...

{thinking}

...it's an open-world adventure game w/ some story, horrible voice-acting, and fetch-quests?

The part where the chick learns the dude has a girlfriend and asks him to walk her home anyway made me wish this game allowed some Melrose Place style trampiness and smack-downs but I'm sure it'd disappoint on that front. I'd be trying to change it from "My Boyfriend" to "My Stud Stable".

 
So random question concerning moving games.  I have all my games on a separate (non-OS) HDD and I'm down to 16% free space.  Can I simply move my Misc. folder containing my non-client based titles to another HDD or will there be broken registry entries and whatnot that will force me to redownload (or more likely just reinstall since I think I may have saved the downloads for some) them?  I was going to download my new Adventure 4 Pack, but if I will end up having to re-do everything, I'll just wait.

One year ago I was happy with my 500GB upgrade (from 250GB).  In October I thought surely 1TB would be plenty for 'just games'.  I join CAG in November and replace my 1TB with a 2TB in December.  And now I'm looking to add a second 2TB.  You all suck...  ...enablers...

 
Wait til you require multiple 3TB hard drives =P

edit: and to your question, i have no idea, i simply buy games from gamersgate, i havnt actually downloaded and played one yet ^^

usually no.. when you install something, its info is stored in the registry, so if you move it to another folder by just copy and pasting, you're going to have issues.

if you don't wanna reinstall, check this out: http://download.cnet.com/Link-Shell-Extension/3000-2248_4-10971924.html

really easy way of symlinking, so you can move the game's folder elsewhere, then create a symlink where it was originally.

 
Thanks for the info.  Now that I'm looking at it, I might just be better off moving my whole Steam folder to the new drive vs several multiple DRM installs.  It looks like I saved the majority of the downloads for all those misc. games, so reinstall wouldn't be too bad if go that route.  I just don't want to have to redownload.  I'll think about it some more.  I probably won't pick up a new drive until BF anyway. 

And if this becomes anything like my movie collection, I'm screwed.  (14TB w/14TB back-up, btw.)

Does anyone know if GamersGate will be carrying a 4-pack of Skullgirls?

If other places do then they likely will as well. If it's not on their site, I've had success messaging them on facebook and getting them to add four packs to their catalog a little quicker.

I'd be careful if I were you. Tried that once and ended up with like 1000 copies of humble bundle and a penny in my underwear. Got confused.

supposedly TDK is releasing a 10 TB hdd in 2014. :) that might last you 6 months

http://www.tweaktown.com/news/26133/tdk_to_manage_10tb_hard_drive_by_2014_using_its_new_ultra_dense_platter_technology/index.html

 
Yeah, would have been free after selling other copies :p

Also to avoid refunds, gift games even to yourself (or redeem at least one per pack)

 
I went ahead and bought Gunslinger for a little over $8 yesterday.  I've played the game for about 3 hours and I have to say I absolutely love it.  I think for certain genres a good story and fun characterization makes up for gameplay that I don't generally prefer (Driver: SF for driving, Gunslinger for FPS), and this game definitely delivers the story in spades.  Its narrative is similar to Bastion in a way (dynamic narrative), but unlike bastion where the narration merely follows the action, in Gunslinger the action and setting can often change and warp depending on the narrative!  I love it :)
