Did anyone actually like TDR 2000?
Nowadays, the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caterpillar_789 doesn't feature in video games as much as it's known for ISIS 'using' it...

Same. Game looks fun, but not quite enough to be worth buying the whole bundle for.

Sweet bundle, just happened to add Guts & Glory to my wishlist this morning. Serial Cleaner looks fun as well. Insta-buy.

is Carmageddon: Max Damage activateable in germany?
Comment has been collapsed.
Short answer: Yes!
Long answer: Strange! I could activate it with a german IP without a problem and Fanatical doesn't warn me about problems on their page like they usually would, but when I try to change to the german shop page, I get redirected to the steam front page......
Comment has been collapsed.
That's always the case if a game isn't available in the steamshop (either because of your country or because it got removed worldwide) and has no connection to the key being usable with a german IP.^^
That said, there are a lot of games that aren't sold in the german shop but have no activation-restrictions.
Often enough keys even work when the seller warns that they aren't. Because they themself either don't have the right information about it or just don't care.

I guess it isn't that version that also gives as a bonus Carmageddon: Max Pack , right?

If only I didn't get Serial Cleaner earlier, I would be much happier getting this bundle

Does System Shock hold up? I'm not good playing games with old UI and stuff like that nowadays
Comment has been collapsed.
Can't say a sure yes for the first one, but System Shock 2 is more than decent nowadays. Actually I use its background on my Steam profile
Comment has been collapsed.
Cool. Never ever started up* but trying to keep it in mind - good to see it's still playeable.
* I did once, checked controls and got scared :D

You should be careful, most people that recommend System Shock 2 are looking through thick nostalgia glasses. The combat is actually rather clunky and quite difficult, especially at the start. Ammo drops are very scarce throughout the game and enemies respawn indefinitely. The story isn't that amazing either.
System Shock 1 is much worse in nearly all aspects. The story is extremely basic and the user interface is very clunky and unfun to play with. Though ammo drops are much, MUCH more reasonable.

Yeah, I talked myself out of SH1 a few months ago. And I already own SH2 so no risk at this point, but thanks for the insight :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm I'm still not sure. I got so used to the current games control scheme, this could de a dealbreaker, but we'll see. Thanks for the tips :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't even think System Shock 2 is much playable at all for nowadays standard. Managed to finish it in coop with a friend quite a few years ago, and even for that time, gave a lot of headaches to be completed.
By the way, System Shock 1 is getting a full remake in 2018.
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh yeah there's a remake coming, but I still thought maybe the original was worth playing

I played System Shock 2 a while ago and completely agree with you. System Shock 2 is actually a huge improvement on all points compared to System Shock 1, which should tell you enough about how terrible it is.
Comment has been collapsed.
The first System Shock is horrible, HORRIBLE!!! Don't let these crazy "fanboys" (who probably haven't even played it, or played it very long ago) convince you otherwise. The control scheme is one of the worst I've ever played with (you kind of get used to it after a while, but it's still annoying to use). The story is terrible and super simplistic. Please trust me that most people would not enjoy it at all, take it from someone who's favorite game is from 1996 (it's also where my avatar comes from). I played both System Shocks a while back and both are pretty bad and heavily over-hyped. I also loved BioShock and it's one of my top 5 favorite games.

I appreciate your honest opinion. I have a feeling I would not be enjoying it then :p
Comment has been collapsed.
I just don't want others to suffer like I did :p I probably would have still played it knowing what I know now simply because BioShock is one of my favorite games ever. Honestly it isn't that bad once you get used to the clunky combat system, but you really have to appreciate old games to enjoy this game somewhat. I still had some fun with it but it's just not a good game, story or gameplay wise.
Comment has been collapsed.
I really, really enjoyed System Shock 1 when it was new, and experimental. But it hasn't aged well at all.
Fortunately the upcoming remake/reboot looks to be heading in the right direction - keeping the atmosphere and the overall plot of the original, but with a more sensible UI and control scheme more on par with today's standards.
Comment has been collapsed.
I imagine it had some innovative/revolutionary ideas when it came out, though I think the user interface always was a bit of a pain. I didn't play it back then so honestly I couldn't say, but as you said it has not aged well at all. The reboot looks interesting though I do hope they add some more story because the original has very little.

Just out of curiosity, what game is your avatar from?
Comment has been collapsed.
"Strife: Quest for the Sigil" or also simply called "Strife" more commonly, renamed "Strife: Veteran Edition" on Steam. It's a role playing game created with the Doom engine. It has a great story with fantastic atmosphere. It plays more like a role playing game than a typical Doom clone so the choice of engine is quite regrettable.

Thanks for the info... sounds pretty cool. Definitely going to check it out.

It was mind blowing in the mid 90's, I remember it first came on like 20 floppy discs and later a CD-Rom edition with voiceovers for the audio logs and so forth.
Today the mouse controls are really awkward, and at the end of the day it was made for 2D cards running under DOS so yeah, without nostalgia I'd pass. SS2 is still good though.

There's a new Carmageddon and I missed it? Ahah, I loved the first two! I'm buying this just for it.

Same. Was a third too, TDR 2000, but I think it was the weakest of them.
Comment has been collapsed.
I was in on the Kickstarter to make this thing happen. It was shaky in its testing phases, but I think it shaped up.
Hilarious memories of the old games were too much to pass up the chance.
Have fun!
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm Its a maybe, have most of them already but would like carmageddon for shiz and giggles though. I can give the rest away I suppose
