I dunno about Krater but EYE is fucking awesome so vote for it.
Does Arkham City run well on PC? I heard it was a bad port but is fine now?
I tried it on Can You Run It? My computer failed the shader versions on the Recommended settings (4.1 instead of 5.0). Would this have a massive impact?

It's a great game on PC. You should probably post your specs, as those websites are rarely accurate.

I tried playing it with a gamepad and... switched back to mouse+keyboard after a few minutes. It's a very solid port.
Well today's selection is kinda of limited if you don't happen to have Limbo, GT4, and CoH. I do hear that Spec Op's story is nice if you can tolerate the cover based shooting spam. A gem inside the indie bundle is SpaceChem. I play that game all the time and it is great.

Loved batman and it ran great on my pc! With dx 11 stuff off though as my card (ati 5770) can't handle dx 11 effects at acceptable fps. I think a controller is a must though, as it's pretty hard to play this type of game with mouse/kb.

I bought wargame for 25 euro's when it came on sale a couple of months ago and haven't regretted it one second. The single player is mediocre, but the multiplayer is incredible and so much fun. Eugen is doing an amazing job supporting it also, with constant bug fixes, balance tweaks and DLC's.
Highly recommended if you're more of a strategy guy than an RTS guy. Watching your perfectly positioned battleline completely demolish a far superior force is just priceless.

disagree on the mouse/kb part. played arkham asylum entirely without gamepad and it was super fine. now im playing with xbox controller since i enjoy playing games more laid back and want to put the controller to use but gotta say imho the keyboard controls were better, its just faster and more accurate to look around midfight etc.
so it def isnt needed
also yes get that game. if you like action adventures and dont hate batman its a super well made game in all aspects. and had zero problems with it, games for windows is the only downside i see in the pc version and a offline profile solves that pretty much anyways.
I had the exact opposite experience. I played with Keyboard first, and had real problems with fights. Then i got a controller, and, despite me never having played anything with a controller before, after about 5 minutes i was already doing far better then with the keyboard. It is just far easier and faster to punch people in the direction you want with a stick, instead of having to turn by using the mouse

weird. you did know that you dont have to look in the direction of the enemy even with m&kb? did tons of the challenges ,played through on hard etc all with kb and as said still feel the pad is limiting me rather often.
still i def wouldnt say it is required to enjoy the game.
