January 14, 2008 - GameTrailers.com learns from Gas Powered Games CEO Chris Taylor about the backstory, the ability to create and customize weaponry, and the important decisions the player will face.
Steam’s deal of the day for October 9th is Space Siege. Also the sale will end in 24 hours, hence the “deal of the day”, so you have until 1pm EST or 10am PST tomorrow to grab this deal. Below is a description on the game as well as some important information.
GamersGate is offering up a free copy of Space Siege for those who pre-order upcoming action RPG Alpha Protocol before its release.
Today is the sixth day in our Steam Holiday Sale featuring an all-new set of deep discounts for today only! The gift of giving just keeps on giving and I can't hold back any longer so here are the daily deals for today:
Space Siege - 75% Off
Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box - 75% Off
The Orange Box - 50% Off
Prey - 85% Off
Killing Floor - 75% Off
looks like they removed Prey, bought it for £1.35 i think but looks like they swapped it with Bioshock at £3.50, not bad :)
85% off was a total steal for Prey, 85% is pretty much a total steal for anything though, right? I mean, a big budget game with innovative plays on gravity, for the price of an iPhone noise maker app.
It's a shame they ran out of keys though, it's ridiculous that a digital distribution store can run out of keys. I guess 2K only authorised x thousands to be sold at that price, but you can't even buy Prey at full price anymore.
Steam is pushing ahead with fantastic sales, and the publishers just can't keep up. Here's to more great deals.
Steam has always had some sick deals every weekend, but this last week has been incredible. Just bought Bioshock and Burnout for a total of $12.50. I like the idea of not having to pay a sales tax either.
For BioShock:
Minimum: Operating System: Windows XP (with Service Pack 2) or Windows Vista, CPU: Intel single-core Pentium 4 processor at 2.4GHz, System RAM: 1 GB, Video Card: Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 128MB RAM and Pixel Shader 3.0 (NVIDIA 6600 or better/ATI X1300 or better, excluding ATI X1550), Sound Card: 100% direct X 9.0c compatible sound card, 8GB of free hard drive space.
Recommended: CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo processor; System RAM: 2GB; Video Card: DX 9 - Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 512 MB RAM and Pixel Shader 3.0 (NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GT or better), DX 10 - NVIDIA GeForce 8600 or better; Sound Card: SoundBlaster(r) X-Fi(tm) series (optimized foruse with Creative Labs EAX ADVANCED HD 4.0 or EAX ADVANCED HD 5.0 compatible sound cards);
No, it won't.
But whatever your next machine is, will be able to run it. Bioshock won't get any cheaper, you may as well buy it now, your Steam account will follow you forever.
Thanks, I had a feeling it probably wouldn't, but I am planning on getting a new comp upon graduating college in May. I'll pick it up now and play it before getting Bioshock 2 later.
Wow a Sci fi game... Even RPG... how original...
Edit: Thanks for making an assumption bro. Actually if you look at my bio you might have an idea. I play atm WoW and CS and BF2 on PC.
The thing I dont like about this game is all it looks like to me is. "Hey lets just copy what sells and not do anything innovative" I appreciate innovation. Crysis for example. However it doesn't sell... Bioshock was one of the few good examples of innovation in the Sci Fi genre that actually did well. this game is a "Hey aliens are attacking! Few humans left! Lets Save the World!" Never heard that before.
I play consoles of every genre and PC games too. I have a pretty nice set up. So... thanks for the disagree bud and being better then me as I can see by your attitude... and bubbles. Currently I am waiting on AOC and WAR for the PC and chomping at the bit to get them. I have been playing the WAR beta. I can't say anything more then its great. So hopefully next time before you jump to conclusions you might try asking first. Thanks for that.
