So it seems to be working normally now.

Is it worth the 12$ more to get the Saint's Row DLCs?

the DLC is fun but not very long. Maybe 2 hrs each? Prof Genki is seriously fun though. That only applies to Space, Clones and Genkibowl. Everything else is just added vehicles and weapons.

Same here, but I'm now kicking myself for getting the game first sans expansions. For the whole pack you get it and the additional DLC, but do what I did and get the base game first, and for the same value you only get those 3 and 1 DLC.

Oh well, nothing big lost.

Hidden Gems of 2012 Summer Sale
Thanks for that.
The Penumbra series is amazing at its current price, especially if you like horror and puzzles.

Anyone have an opinion on this bundle? I've been mildly interested in the games, but it seems a bit much considering that I don't know if I'll be playing them long.

I'd wait to see if there ends up being a better sale on top of that one. After all, the bundle sales last until the end of the entire thing.

You know what I hate? you can't buy a 4 pack of a title as gifts if you already own it.

Any way, I am picking up a couple copies of terraria to give my niece and nephew.

Is Warlock: Master of the Arcane worth it? I enjoyed the Age of Wonders games but not so much Civ 5 (which I hear Warlock is heavily based off).  It's currently a "flash sale" for $6.79.

I assuming it's one of those meta things that a whole bunch of websites use. Really just a way to show off e-penis.

What a shame. At least the last Summer Camp Treasure Hunt and the Christmas Challenge at least yielded a chance to win a sweepstakes or a coupon for a cheaper or free game, and depending on the challenge given, a feeling of accomplishment if it was truly a tough one (like the Super Meat Boy Hell challenge; ugh, that was ugly, but awesome to pull off).

Anyway, anyone try out Back to the Future? Currently on Flash Sale for 75% off. I heard it was good, but I wonder if anyone actually played it, or any other Telltale game?

I think the thought is that if you buy three for your friends, you get one free for yourself.

Currently nothing, but there's been speculation that they might do something in the future. No clue on more.

Depends, as always, on how much you value $6.79.

It's basically limited but has its strong points. The Civ 5 thing is accurate in how it tends to look, how terrain differs, and in how units attack/defend/move/level up. It's AoW-like in that there's three resources (gold, mana, food) for casting, upkeep, buying units in the first place, etc, you research spells one by one in order to cast them, cities grow on their own inscrutable timeframe rather than something obvious like food (though lack of food does apply a penalty), and a fair amount of the game is attacking monster lairs and getting ambushed by spiders for exp and loot.

So, I dunno. Depends on what you liked or disliked about each and what you're after, though I would generally consider it "alright" on the whole rather than especially good.
