Toki Tori is great! I might have to buy Two Tribes' other game now (Rush); it looks interesting.

@FireWire: that's a killer deal. Any experiences with the Greenman Gaming service?
No this is my first purchase off of them.
But looks like those guys on Neogaf had some good prior experiences. I just pre-ordered the game, paid with paypall.

Looks like you can even get a refund at any time as long as you didn't play the game;

Thanks.

Now, Amazon is in on the digital downloads, with Bad Company 2 at $9.99
http://www.amazon.com/Battlefield-Bad-Company-2-Do...
Which is currently 10 bucks less than Steam, for those that don't already have it.

That is the .com version of the site though.

They are pretty cool about the software too. All you need is their simple little installer to download the games, which you can promptly delete after it's finished.
No extra layer of "Amazon DRM" or anything.
Then, just back up your game installer for safe keeping, though you'll always have access to the downloads and product codes if you need them.

No nonsense, so far... :)

I'm currently on a silly quest to finish all campaigns in Disciples 2 at the moment, I can safely recommend it.

I'm down 2 campaigns. Only 11 left lol. What I Love about it is that at some point you think you're really powerful and then the game throws at you something with ridiculous stats. I still haven't managed to conquer a capital either, though it should be soon doable.

One map can take hours to complete, I can't even imagine how long 11 campaigns will. Good luck dude!

Yeah it takes like 30-50 hours to complete one campaign on the highest difficulty. I was hoping that faster CPUs would bring shorter AI turns than back in 2002 but no such luck - they still take over a minute. Regardless, the game is very relaxing and I think I'll complete all of them eventually.:)

Sent you invite. I am Isomac with Duke Nukem avatar :P

I never use the group option. Imo it's just better to add to friend list :P

Also why does that group site always say that I am the group player of the week? I play SP games mostly and when Uruk asks to play something I leave lol.

Good deal; had that on my wishlist for a long while.

This Gundemonium Recollection is great: http://store.steampowered.com/app/92200/

You can get Gundemonium Recollection, Hitogata Happa and GundeadliGne in the pack for 10€. I haven't tried the other 2 games yet but I got my moneys worth already :P

I'm thinking about getting The binding of Isaac;

http://store.steampowered.com/app/113200/
The Binding of Isaac is a randomly generated action RPG shooter with heavy Rogue-like elements. Following Isaac on his journey players will find bizarre treasures that change Isaac’s form giving him super human abilities and enabling him to fight off droves of mysterious creatures, discover secrets and fight his way to safety.
Also reminds me of Zelda a bit!

Hmm Spotify integration, that's news to me. Although I am not sure if I would use it much. Maybe for MMO's.

GOG news are always welcome to this thread!

Wow they got some sweet deals going on. I'll probably pick up some adventure games I am missing.

Here is a humble bundle deal on Zen Studios Pinball FX tables.

I own every single one of them on Xbox 360, and quite a few on my android tablet.

https://www.humblebundle.com/weekly

I like this deal, in that it allows me to play on my laptop now as well.
