I took a gander and finally succumbed and bought Skyrim.  The Trine Collection was also nabbed and finally Chivalry: Medieval Warfare.  It'll be interesting trying that one out, being a Kunst Des Fetchens practitioner I'll probably be wicked overcritical and get pissed when I can't Zwerch and Krump like a boss.

It's a bad game designed by a bad person, don't buy it (or anything from Wardell's company)
Why is Brad Wardell a bad person?

17:37:11   SpardaSon21: even the males?
17:37:22   Quanto: its not gay if its an elf

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

I've finally made it a personal policy to not buy games whose prequels/originals I own but haven't played yet...it's just getting to be too much.  So no ME2 or DE:HR this time around.

Indeed.  It's actually better to play them chronologically than in sequence of release.

Also, it's $5.  Get it.

Anyone who hasn't played Dragon Age: Origins has run out of excuses.  The entire Ultimate edition is in a flash sale for $9.

I was tempted, but considering the number of other games I have yet have not yet played/finished, I can't justify it.... so, waiting for a GOTY edition.

So, is the Fall of the Samurai stand-alone expansion to Shogun 2 any good?

I can't speak for the expansion pack, but the core game is quite excellent (excluding multiplayer issues).

I'd say yes, but that's probably the naval combat system talking. (I'm still not reliable in land battles.)

Well, as long as my battles end up with either of lots of peasant riflemen chopped up by melee weapons or dead samurai shot to hell by lines of precisely-drilled elite riflemen (or Gatling gun batteries), I'll be happy.

Yep.  It also uses deferred rendering so Lower Hensha is simply gorgeous from all the neon and giant TV screens.

Those points aside, I have a backlog of like 60 games, and I barely have enough money to cover Christmas shopping, so no, I'm still skipping this one. :p

Anyway, I promised myself Human Revolution would be the last game I buy... at least until winter.

Damnit, the Witcher 2 just dropped $5. :blah:
