The dreamcast ports are terrible. Quote from RPS comments: I bought Space Channel 5 Part 2 and although the game looks and sounds beautiful with (relatively, compared to the DC version) sharp graphics, the input timing is completely broken and out of sync. I’ve gone through the whole Steam forum looking for a fix but nobody’s got one. Button presses are out of sync with the music and get worse and worse as you approach the end of a level so that you have to press a button almost a half-note early. This is one of the incredibly rare times I will go ahead and use the word “unplayable”. I only paid $2.30 for this game but I’m going to get a refund – not because I need the money but because I don’t want Sega to have it. Crazy Taxi is missing music. I'd recommend rhythm game fans check out Osu! and Stepmania\OpenITG, both of which are free. For a newer release, you can get Might and Magic Clash of Heroes HD at 11.19USD here: http://www.getgamesgo.com/product/might-and-magic-clash-of-heroes Registers on Steam, I could pay in USD from Europe making it nearly half the price Steam charges. | ||

Oh, and I bought Alpha Protocol for 2 bucks on steam, it's been quite fun so far. Here's the Escapists' take on it. http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/1801-Alpha-Protocol Edit: if you haven't seen these reviews before, here's the review for the new deus ex. http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/4137-Deus-Ex-Human-Revolution absolutely worth 2 bucks, imo! and I also bought this game called Lucid: great sfx and atmosphere, worth the four bucks for sure. a few irritations, but all games have something not perfect.  | ||

Fun if you're a fan of the boardgame but might be a bit awkward for the uninitiated. | ||

Good job doing it, I think it's a very good consumer advice from people who experienced it. I voted - no. Game isn't bad, but it isn't good either. If you want a distraction or have someone to play it with in coop - go ahead. And there isn't much incentive to replay it even with 4 character classes. For my tastes (RPGs mostly) it's a one timer, a one timer you don't really want to come back to. | ||

I bought blood bowl and I'm having great fun with it, but I am admittedly a bit of a warhammer geek. It's good turn based strategy tho, and it certainly has a unique flavor. Worth the 8 euros to be honest. | ||

There's also Portal 2, which I've never played. Steam is gonna make me poor lol :D Or both? I definitely have the money, omg what should I do!!!! EDIT: I picked both of them anyway. I just hope I can make the game in full Turkish language, I've read somewhere that you can do it by simply changing the g_language = English to Turkish, I hope that works it's gonna be awesome. The retail versions in Turkey are Turkish, but Steam is cheaper, so :D I hope this works. Portal is gonna be interesting, I've never played and don't know much about it, but it has been universally praised so I think it's gonna be good. Damn...FU Steam so much money spent :D | ||

It is worth with 75% discount. I bought it last X-mas just to check it because everyone always hyped the game so much, for this price it was a blast to play through both games and just see things from a bit different prespective. Combat felt very satisfying and since it's a shooter that should say something, grahpics are very pleasant and detailed. Story of course isn't that good but the mechanics are truly enjoyable. I don't like portal tho, wouldn't buy it even for 99% discount, just not interested. Just read you bought em, ehh. anyways. I'll leave the post for anyone else. | ||
