Someone talk me down...I'm wanting to pull the trigger on Natural Selection 2 - $8.49,  Rising Storm - $9.99  and then 10% off with voucher.

They are great games, and it is a good deal...but I don't even have enough time to play all the Wargame:Airland and DCS that I want to play as it is...there's no WAY I could play anything else.

Don't do it... those games will only get cheaper and I can tell you that NS2 is not that fun.  Stick with what you are playing... at least that is what I am trying to go.... get good not just ok with the games I have and play them, I find after a week goes by I have forgotten those other games that was on sale.

With RomeTW2 on the horizon, Gamersgate is putting all the previous Total War games on sale for 75% off this weekend.

Well, all the titles from Rome1 onward anyway. (Including Viking Battle For Asgard and the Alexander mission campaign for Rome1.)

Own everything from Rome 1 onward, including all expansion packs, for a total of $41.25, or pick and choose. (Note that the expansion packs themselves aren't on sale per se, only insofar as they're included in collections.)


...did that help talk you down, Republic?  :D

Rising Storm comes with RO2 free now.  That is a lot of gaming fun for not much money.

Rising Storm is my "go to" game lately.  If you get on a decent server with folks that know what they're doing it is hella fun.  I'd pull the trigger on that one!  (although it might be cheaper during the Steam sale...)

Dang it...

I'm still holding out.  I have Red Orchestra, if I played it more I'd buy Rising Sun right away...but I spend all my gaming time in either Wargame: Airland or DCS so I know it would just sit and gather digital dust next to the games I bought last Steam Summer sale lol

Are decent servers common for Rising Sun?

About half the time it's ok/fun, 1/4 of the time amazing and 1/4 of the time it's log off and find a different server.

It just depends on the mix you have logged on, and the atmosphere of the server.  I frequent about 4 different ones that have good ping out here.

There are a few times, maybe 1/10 of the time, where everything comes together and the gaming is as good as it gets.  Again, it's all about the mix of players and how serious they are.

I wish we could get a group together here like we have for Left for Dead 2 or Call of Duty...that would guarantee a purchase for me.

I bought Chivalry a while back and a few of our guys were playing for a while but interest died off quickly. Then I was left with servers full of idiots.

Rising Sun servers are mostly half empty or just a handful of guys against bots, especially if you want to play Classic mode.  I'd be up for a game if we could get some guys together.  I know some of the guys from SimHQ who regularly play ArmA and Iron Front with would also join if were we to get something going.

OK so there's Toonces, SDR and me if I buy it. LB? Tuna? Oche? We need at least one more guy and if there's no real single player I don't want to feel like I threw my money away.

OK I'm looking at Rising Storm on Steam right now...19.99. I don't see any mention of RO2 coming with it...is the combo through some other outlet?

Looks like the Deluxe Edition for $29.99 has the multiplayer content for RO2 as a bonus. Definitely interested if it goes on sale.

Ah ok. If we can get a group for one I think most guys would be interested in the other as well, eh?
