Latest game you purchased and why?

[mew4ever23]

Magicka, because I had heard it was good.

It turned out to be too brokenly difficult to play on single player. Don't you dare give me the argument that everyone seems to be using to justify this, the "It's meant to be played in multiplayer" bit. If you're going to provide an option to play alone, you need to make sure that the dificulty is such that the player is challenged without being clusterfucked repeatedly after spawning.

L4D2, Medal of Honor, Torchlight, The Sims 3... all from the steam sale during the last couple days.

 

[Echopunk]

I usually rent or wait until prices drop, due to being disappointed by paying full price for <10 hours of actual gameplay. That said, the last game I bought was L.A. Noire, because I wanted to support the developer for doing something a little bit different.

 

[tombman888]

Sanctum 2-pack for me and a friend... and then i hear its going on 75% sale tomorrow........

 

[Mista Miggins]

Valve complete pack.

Because it was on sale for £25.

 

[Upbeat Zombie]

I believe it was Torchlight, and because it was 3 bucks.
God I love steam sales! It's not a real deal unless it's 75% off XD.

 

[tthor]

Bioshock 1 and 2, because they looked good, and were each on sale for 5$ on steam~

 

[Bat Vader]

The latest game I purchased was Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines from Steam. The reason I bought it was because I had heard it was a good game. It is a pretty fun game.

 

[Blackdoom]

Dead Rising 2. Because I love zombies but mostly because Steam sales suck me in.

 

[boyvirgo666]

Prototype. because i want to fly around with blod spurting out of my arms and legs like an emo peter pan.

 

[merc hunter]

F3AR because iv bought th other games in the series and I like the story lines.

 

[XIII's Number XIV]

Dj Hero 2, 'cuz my old copy got scratched and my aunt offered a copy from her store for 20 bucks. I freakin' LOVE that game.

 

[Doti]

A white Slim and Lite PSP with the first Dissidia Game. I'd been thinking of getting a PSP for a while and I couldn't find that particular game anywhere, so I bought the pack.

If that doesn't count, Warioware:Smooth Moves, it was 10? and the motion controls actually seem inventive.

 

[TheLoneBeet]

The STALKER series because it was on sale from Steam. Summer Sales has been raping my wallet daily.

 

[TacticalAssassin1]

The STALKER series because it was on sale from Steam. Summer Sales has been raping my wallet daily.

My wallet, too, has been sexually violated in a pleasantly debilitating way this last week.
Today I got Killing Floor because my friends have been nagging me to get it and it's 5 bucks.
I also got STALKER, Just Cause 2,and all Bad Company 2 DLC.

 

[Ruiner87]

Arcania: Gothic 4 and Half Minute Hero: SMNC. Been having a lot of fun with both of them. Gothic 4, despite barely being a Gothic game, was totally worth it for the price I paid, and Half minute Hero is absolutely fantastic. Still have enough MS Points laying around to buy another Arcade game, so I'll have to make a tough decision soon.

 

[Saelune]

FEAR 3, because I loved the first two and wanted to finish the story.

 

[The Cheezy One]

Far Cry 2. For £2.50 on the Steam sale. Thats about the cost of a decent lunch, so if I go without eating today, I've broken even! And anyway, just got a souped up death PC machine, so it looks awesome!
