Dragon Age Awakening is tempting, and I'm glad I didn't buy it during EA's sale as it's cheaper now (I'd like it cheaper, but hey). Anyone know how much gameplay is in there compared to the original game?DJ_Lae
about 20-25 more hours if you do everything you want to do in the game

That's not too bad, then, maybe half of the original game's length.

A little less probably I did it in 18 hrs. It is good though, there are quality interactions between your nps, some fun quests... overall id say go for it.

Then again, Dragon Age characters are known for being attention whores, though.

Well. Got Titan Quest Gold for $4.99. I have the DVD for the first one but I like the idea of playing this without the disc. Yeah I can crack it but it's illegal and I NEVER trust or use cracks because of viruses. I love Steam.

How is Winterbottom.

It is still downloading, but I'll post impressions when I get a chance... I also just bought inFamous off of PSN, so I'm gonna be downloading stuff all night.

I think we're all very grateful you never installed the very popular mod that really makes the characters literally be naked when the clothes come off... :lol:

Thief looks very good but I am afraid it will kill my computer.dvader654
Try the demo. Seriously, this level is one of the scariest, most horrible experiences you can find in games. Like the worst parts of Shadow of Chernobyl only much more drawn out. I played it once and will never, ever do it again. And I mean all this in a good way btw. :P

I bought it, and then traded it in for something. I never beat the evil campaign, so I figured it was time to start over. I bought it twice! That means I'm doubly Captain Sony.:P

I didn't really like Winterbottom. I'm curious what other people's impressions of it will be. It just felt like it was trying to be too clever, as if the developers were trying to out-Braid Braid.

[QUOTE="muthsera666"]All you have to do is open your pet's inventory. Or, I think if you hold Shift and click on an item, it will transfer it to the pet's inventory. Then you just click the little moneybag icon on the pet's box, and he'll take off.ChiliDragon
If it's that easy I'm going to feel really stupid when I try it tonight. I need to get out of the habit of starting new games late late at night. :D

As it turns out, there is a paw-shaped icon right beside the blue mana-meter in the middle of the skill bar, that I just missed because it was past midnight and I was tired. When I click on that icon Bagheera's inventory window comes up and I can move all the sellable loot to him with shift-click, and then I click the money bag next to his health meter to send him back to town to sell the stuff. Being able to send the pet back to town to sell off loot is GENIUS, by the way. :D

Lol, I wish. Student loans are $660 a month. I bring home $900 a month if I'm lucky. Which basically covers car insurance and gas and leaves me $120 to actually spend a month. And I need to buy four new tires for my car. I hate the idea of carrying a balance on my credit cards cause I'm already paying $20,000 in interest on the student loans.

Been there, done that... it sucks in several ways. At least you have your priorities straight... I've known way to many gullible ones who kept putting large expenses on credit cards, and then woke up to a NASTY surprise 15 years later. Don't make that mistake.

It's been tempting some times. And the Steam sale hasn't helped. And the massive online Xbox purchases for a couple of months, but I do finally have my priorities in line. For a while I had two jobs, so I did have some extra cash, but now it's down to one part time job for now. The bad thing is that I usually get seven or eight days per pay instead of the full-time ten, but that means that I can't very easily pick up another part-time job because I won't have the time. So, if I get another job, I'm going to have to drop the one I have right now. But I'm kind of hoping that it leads to something bigger. Luckily my parents are letting me live at home, relatively free of charge, so that really helps out.

Ouch again. Hopefully you'll find something soon... I spent some time in college renting a room from my parents, and it honestly sucked. Not that I don't love them and appreciate they were willing to help me and all, but that whole "I'm a real adult now!" thing really took a serious hit during that year. :(

Awww dammit i feel bad. One of my first complaints of the game is that certain DLc doesn't transfer to awakenings and I think it's ****ing stupid. I mean Bioware created the DLc and the expansion...you'd think they would work together. anyways my rogue character only lost a few items, mostly rings and a couple of skillls from the soldiers peak DLC....so it didn't up as bad as your guy with a helmet and his codpiece showing. I forgot to warn you about that....my bad.

It was more funny than anything, so I didn't really mind. It was just weird playing the first half hour or so with a dude in his undewear and punching Darkspawn in the face as my sword was also part of the previous DLC (I guess). You'd think Bioware would reward people who gave them more money, not punish them. Even now I'm using the armor of the dead chick (crappy chainmail) and a plain longsword. It's a bit ridiculous.

Winterbottom didn't really impress me much, but for how cheap I got it, I'll live. I don't know if it runs really slow on any computer, or if it was just mine. It wasn't like the framerate was bad, it just felt like the guy was walking through sludge. I also played a bit of Torchlight. That seems like a fun one. I've never played a Diablo game or anything similar, but I can see myself getting hooked.

People on another forum tell me that, uh, it's not very well optimized. Sounds like it was a quick and dirty PC port that they spent very little time on, focusing on the consoles instead.

i cant say much about the pc port, but the game itself is good for co-op. youll probably get bored pretty quick in single player due to the dull quest design (fetch quests and blocks of text), but co-op will allow for individual playstyles to shine. the art style is pretty cool too.

well theres lots of pop in and load times on any version if thats what the problems were. its because they completely changed the art direction last minute.

Well, another expensive day... This morning, I decided to hell with it, and got Thief: Deadly Shadows, NecroVisioN, Twin Sector and Broken Sword III: The Sleeping Dragon; I already have Thief and Dragon on Xbox... Then, this afternoon, with the new deals, I got Beat Hazard, Half-Life 2 and Cryostasis. The demo for Beat Hazard was awesome. And, as much as I disliked Half-Life 2, I'm hoping that playing the first one I got earlier will help me through it. I already have it on Xbox, but hopefully it will play better on PC.

its fairly short as far as diablo-type games go with a level cap at 50 (unless they include dlc in the steam deal), which you wont even hit on a single playthrough. 20-25 hours sounds about right.
