Rod - have you played the game? I am interested in it but really not into FPS but sort of want a change from sports gaming. I have read rave reviews, but sort of want to get some impressions from this board.
Fun game. Easy to pick-up and play as well. Lots of different types of missions as well as just running around killing stuff. Worth the $20.

I haven't waiting for the Steam sale. DB's played both the PC and console version. I think he said there were framerate issues with console version. Based on the reviews the 360 holds up better than the PS3 version.

The game is stellar based on all the reviews i've read.

PC version is significantly better looking and a lot smoother, assuming you have a decent rig. Terry did some screen shots in the FC3 thread I believe. Awesome game either way.

Thanks!
Same here! very cool.

I got stuck in one of the games original programming rushed release bugs and sold it as I wasnt going to start over after I spent hours doing the crappy side quest stuff..

Downloaded it and it picked up right where I had left off sans bug. Now I can maybe finish the sucker.

Not sure if someone posted but Batman Arkham City GOTY is $9.99 at BB this week.

They're sold out but Fry's had a lot and they priced matched. I really never played that game and it's maybe what I'm looking for from a break from sports games.

I got Fry Cry 3 too for $29.99 there but have not played it yet.

Wait!?! I thought you had to be always-online and DRM'ed up the ass to be able to give customers deals?

;)

Lots of good deals at GOG, not just on old games too.

Torchlight for free? Can't get better than that.

Bad timing as I bought IB II last week for 99 cents. :lol:

Abandoned is also a nice game on the App store. It's always free with ads but it's a lot of fun.
