Three games:

Still Life 2, Moment of Silence, and Sinking Island.

Bought on my behalf by a friend who has a card just for ebay purchases, because I can’t find any adventure PC games anywhere is stores.

Waiting for them to arrive. Especially looking forward to discovering who the killer is from Still Life 1.

I just bought 2 games from Tell Tale Games. Tales of Monkey Island and Sam N Max Season 2 with CD (DVD?). I plan on buying the CD/DVD for Monkey Island when it is released as well.

I didn't mean to buy any games this month, but I couldn't resist the discounted prices...

I just pre-ordered Dark Fall III : Lost Souls from Amazone, and while I was in shopping mode - Return to Ravenhearst at a good price (£4 + shipping).

*Fantasysci5* · 11-08-2009, 01:13 AM

I'm going to preorder it from Shadow Tor-Jonathan/Matt's site. I don't see it on Amazon, and I'd rather support Jonathan right from the site.

Well excuse me, it's from the UK Amazon, and I am pretty sure that Jonathan & co gets paid no matter where you buy it from.

I just bought Machinarium and I'm going to start playing it right away!
That's really the best part of downloads.

I didn't mean any insult, I just meant that I'm going to buy it straight from his site. And I was looking on Amazon for Dark Fall 3, instead of "Dark Fall:Lost Souls".

I just pre-ordered New Super Mario Bros Wii!

I just got Modern Warfare 2 too. Only played the first couple levels but WOW...that "no russian" level was one of the most intense segments i've played in a game.

misslilo · 11-11-2009, 11:29 AM

About a week back I ordered Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, and today it finally arrived.
Too bad I don't have time to start playing just yet

Yesterday I received Fallout 3 with all expansions, although I already have it all, just through windows live. Bah, hate that place...

Still waiting for the latest CSI game to arrive... guess it wasn't in stock, lol.

A wonderful, wonderful game! Bu sure to check to the unofficial patches that resolve many of the game bugs and glitches

There was (is?) a big patch war between two Bloodline enthusiasts called Wesp and Tessera (Tessmage). Tessmage released the True patch which just focuses on fixing bugs whereas Wesp's patch fixes bugs and restores content that didn't feature in the final game.

Which you go for is up to you, I went with Wesp's because Tessmage came off as a bit of dick on various forums and not to mention he has an obsession with making gratuitous nude female skins for most games! You can get Wesp's here and Tessmage's here (warning: lots of nudity on that link)

Hope that helps.

Bought this so I could use it with my PC. Should be much more comfortable to use than my Rumblepad. I'm in the middle of mapping out the controls for some of my games.

geggis · 11-11-2009, 12:59 PM

Gazzoid I'm contemplating getting some sort of adaptor for one of my PS3 pads so I can do the same. Certain games on the PC deserve a pad!

DustyShinigami · 11-12-2009, 02:49 AM

That they do. Although, I wouldn't recommend one if you play FPS. I tried Half-Life and DOOM 3 with the 360 controller and the camera movement is sooooo slow. Even tweaking it is no use. They're ideal for third-person and racing games though (not that I play the latter of course).

I'm also a bit annoyed that the LT and RT buttons don't work even after installing the drivers. Must be a Vista thing. In the end I had to install a third-party utility.

geggis · 11-12-2009, 05:57 AM

Absolutely. If I can, I'll only buy FPSs for my PC because of the mouse and keyboard combo. The only FPSs that I've managed to get on with with a pad have been Goldeneye and Timesplitters 2. Both are brilliant. Psychonauts was a pain using the keyboard and mouse though.

Actually, I do love a good racing game but it has to be ridiculously fast, visceral and fun. My favourite racer is F-Zero GX and I've been playing a lot of Motor Storm: Pacific Rift recently. Both get extremely difficult as well and I love the challenge and rush of scraping through. I think this should have been posted in the Brainhex quiz section...

Luna Sevithiainen · 11-12-2009, 06:31 AM

I just got Simon the Sorcerer 4 - Chaos Happens. Every once in a while game selling shops also sell adventures, so this is a nice reward for all the searching I have done the last months
