Nothing much thats intriguing me atm though. eeeeevil genius looks fun, but a tad complex for my small brain.

Any games that people would suggest?

 

[Nanor]

Evil Genius.

 

[BiG D]

Evil Genius is great. I've already made my recommendations in the RSS feed thread

Wol, you do not have permission to access this page.

:-(


I've noticed you playing it, and I've seen some playthroughs of bits of it on youtube. It does look all rather complex and elaborate. I like plain evil, not fancy evil heh

 

[KillCrazy]

Got myself a copy of Mirrors Edge. Saw a preview of this months ago and forgot all about it!

There are some very funky sales on there at the moment, I got the whole Jedi Knight pack for about £8!

Not on Steam but on Amazon there's also ArmA 2 for £8.98!

It was at that price on Game the other day but now it's back to £19.99, it's almost like the online stores are taking turns in selling it really cheap or something. >.>

Take Theme Hospital style gameplay and add a side-event you have to manage similar to the board game Risk. This is a very brief summary of Evil Genius

 

[PsiSoldier]

Evil Genius is fucking amazing. At the price it's at there is no reason not to get it.

When you do get it I'd recommend changing the files so you can have a population of more than 100. It's simply just not enough to take over the world.

 

[Wol]

damn. youve all tempted me to spend the same amount of money that two pints cost....

edit to add: I lie - its cheaper than I thought. About the same as a pint of coke!

yay for sales.

I accomplished it no problem with the population cap... The key is to keep more top level minions as they can train all the lower levels. Something like 10 workers, 5 each of the 6 middle classes, 10 each of the top tier (that equals 100 right on.) You can adjust as necessary to do acts of infamy if something requires more.

Nothing too exciting today. Serious Sam HD for 50% off, supports up to 16 people coop. If there's some interest here I'd probably get that.

 

[Xarlaxas]

iD pack! So getting that. :3

Don't forget the "unofficial patch". Makes it much more fun and fixes quite a few bugs.

Is it a different game to the first serious same game?

Same game, new engine. Using the engine they've made for SS3.
