I'm spending shocking, disgraceful amounts of time immersed in FC5, random bushwhackings wif my two GFH backups and building an obscene cash balance from indiscriminate slaughter of innocent wild creatures (nearing 300K. er, dollars, not creatures.)

Portal 2 is well worth it. Far more expansive than the first and much funnier (if you like Stephen Merchant).

I've just got Metal Gear Solid 5 in the sale and spent the underwhelming first hour crawling on my belly escaping a hospital while surviving many improbable explosions. I've never played a MGS game before and have obviously missed crucial bits of the lore, but I didn't realise there was so much supernatural crap in it.

I'll definitely get Portal 2. I don't know if I'll get anything else. I don't have a huge amount of time for gaming these days (says me who's reserved Valve's VR headset) and I still have some free GoG games I haven't even tried.

Oh cool, yeah L4D is fun. I bought it on sale years ago, not sure if it was 1 or 2. I played it a couple of times but haven't really made the most of it.

I've now got Portal 2 for 53p as I've already purchased Portal 1. Thought I might as well add Elite Dangerous as it's only £5.99.

FCND is in my library.

Hey, at least I didn't drunk-buy it.

X3N never came back  :-O

Reading through, I had to check the date to see how old this thread was! Portal 2, L4D? Go for it!

Is it ever not on? (fail)

The Talos Principal. £4.49. Fuck. That is all.

Is that the one Manthorp mentioned when I thought he was talking about Obduction? Tempted by that I think.

...and £25.50 less than I paid not 4 weeks ago.

Ouch! I take partial responsibility for selling it too big, though my conscience does not extend to even partially reimbursing you.

I console myself with the thought that I've wasted far more beer tokens elsewhere and that in the grand scheme of my profligacy it's a drip in my gin glass.

Also, it is quite a fun game.

There are three special, halcyon maps which owe a considerable debt to Roger Dean. I absolutely love the piece of music that accompanies them. The climax of the game is great, too.

...easily worth £30.

Did he try to sue them?

Does that mean you get 6 times as much fun from it?

Sadly not. However, I do feel obliged to try harder now.
