Tropico requires some Kalypso account(steam special edition my ass), Far Cry Blood Dragon requries Uplay account... sigh. They should put that shit in equal warning boxes as early access. This is not why I buy games on steam
On the other hand, Farcry 3 Blood Dragon is amazingly great. Cybercommando fighting robots and laserdinosaurs with 80's music? Can't get much better. So much humor in the texts as well, ie if you go to the data menu and check the details for a bow, it says 'This is a bow. We know, that's medieval. That's why we added neon glow. Now it's a futureweapon!"

It's a pretty cool game, probably worth the money if you like 2d sidescroller shooters. Some people tend to be pretty wary of Early Access games and will say that devs are just trying to steal your money or something, but the guys making Broforce are really good. They release monthly updates with a good bit of substance each (as well as smaller bugfixes throughout the month), make videos to show the new stuff and changes, and communicate with players a lot, so you wouldn't have to worry about them disappearing before the game is done.

Just a note for anyone that is thinking about getting Blood Dragon but is prone to getting migraines. When I tried to play it, I barely got through the tutorial and all the neon lights had given me a pretty awful migraine.
Endless space is good but I haven't played the expansion (Which supposedly is pretty good)
It's a poor man's Galciv II though, if you like Galciv II then it's definitely worth a try but you will probably be disappointed with the lack of depth. I really like the asthetic feel of the game though, they really nailed that part.
shadowrun , anyone played it , is it any good comparing it to like Fallout 1 and 2? i see the playstyle is similar but more cyberpunk which is good and would consider buying if the story is good.

It is pretty good if your into Fallout 1/2, its very story heavy, lots of text/reading, turn based combat and some exploration in it too. Not to mention it has steam workshop support, so it has quite a lot of content. I personally got bored because there was just way to much reading for my taste, but i can appreciate it for what it is, i still give it a thumbs up tho.

the default campaign is ok but to be honest very shallow. I guess the main attraction is user made stuff.
So Goat Simulator is on sale again. I'm still standing buy that I found that game to be very funny and hilarious. I even remember reading a review of the game made by an actual Goat Farmer
Here's a nice documentary about the game that I saw today (In Swedish w/ English subs available)

Pick any you want except C&C 4. That one is a mess. The others are okay. But online play is gonna get shut down at the end of this month and they are working on keeping it alive with another host/server due to gamespy closure. From the modern ones C&C 3 Tiberium Wars is imo the best cause of the atmosphere. Even if its from EA . It catches the old C&C fell pretty well. Red Alert 3 is different from RA 2 but still decent. (They only sell the modern titles right?)
EDIT: Oh btw guys. How do I contribute to my team? I dont have that many games and cant collect any cards for the ones I have. It says I need "Booster packs" . Is there another way to make points? I want to win something from my wishlist but I quite dont get the system.
So I've wanted to play through Baldur's Gate 2 for years and years, and now have to decide between the EE on Steam for 6.24, and regular BG2 on GOG for 4.99. EE sounds like a good idea, but the comments on steam have me wavering, thinking maybe I don't want to pay an extra 1.25 for repackaged freely available community patches, and some exceptionally weak extra content. EE worth it or no?

I am also curious on this, and im also curious as to how complicated the game is, im doing a run through of DA:Origins, wondering how much more difficult Bulders Gate will be.
