Eh, they take forever to mark stuff down. I've been wanting GalCiv2 for a while, but that "sale" is silly, since it's out in jewel case for the same price. Meanwhile GalCiv2 Gold is still $40! Or through impulse, $10 for GalCiv2 + $30/ea for two expansions? Crazy, especially since you can't find Dark Avatar in stores, so you need Gold + the second expansion. $70 for a game that's coming up on three years old? Meh.

Space Rangers 2 + expansion for $3.99!  I haven't played the expansion yet so I'm all over that shit.  Thanks.

Yah, I had the original I got in the bin, put it on my old pc because I didn't care about the starforce at that point (was building the new pc). Seemed like a cool game, but something shiny distracted me (new pc!). The steam impulse version is starforce-less, right? $4 for something I might never get around to doesn't hurt.

Yep, starforce free.  For $4 you can't lose.

Ooo, Space Rangers 2. I remember that game being fun for some reason. I will obtain it!

But that Captain's salami tray was tight, yo. You plump for the roast pork loin, dogg?

After reading this thread, I bought SR2 for six bucks ($AU).

It's okay, but the six bucks is probably the amount of fun I'll get out of it anyway.

If I buy DoW: Dark Crusade on this thing, will it link up with DoW: Soulstorm which I bought through Steam?

Also, selling Titan Quest discounted without Immortal Throne is just silly.

When did a newer version of Defender of the Crown come out?  I played the old one years and years ago when I was a wee lad and it rocked my world then.  I'm curious if this one has changed much beyond the graphics.  I also wonder if playing it now would ruin my nostalgic love of it.

This as well.

I played it on the Amiga in days past, and pretty much have the same question about this new one that I did not know existed.

The Titan Quest deal isn't much of a deal because it doesn't include the expansion.  I think you're still better off getting Titan Quest Gold from Steam at 19.99.

Yes it will ruin your nostalgia.  No do not play it.
