Here. I don't know if it's region restricted or anything.


Anyhow, I didn't make this topic (just) to mention the deal...
I've been quite... reckless with the games I really want lately- bought DmC for just 50% off from the same site(yes, it's legit) and actually PRE-ORDERED(ouch) BioShock: Infinite. So I'm afraid I'm starting to lose my greedy touch of always buys stuff dirt cheap... :(
And, well, despite being against their little let's-cutting-off-Ranger-mode scheme, I definitely know I want the game...

So anyhow, I need your opinions: Is it worth it at this price?; Do you think it will go on (an equal or better) sale any time soon?; How was the story? Should I stop being lazy and actually create a puzzle instead of putting a hidden giveaway with an abnormally high entry requirement which probably would be significantly lower if it was a puzzle? How was the single player? Did it have better PC compatibility than the first one(which had awful, lol)? And... all those stuff...
All those questions are really important to my current mental well-being(no, they're not), so I'd appreciate if you helped me with them(sure, I will). :)

Yep... like I said I bought DmC: Devil May Cry from them a while back... did you even read my post? Guess I'll edit it to make it clearer. -.-
Anyway, yes, they accept Paypal.

Bought Sleeping Dogs, Borderlands 2 and DmC from this site in the past. It's legit.

Never heard of that site. Looks a bit fishy but I could be wrong.

But if it's legit then it's a good price.

I think it's worth it. I may be wrong, but I heard that developers are working on MP or co-op.

Oh, that sounds like a nice deal. Though I honestly have no idea how those... private sellers(Is that how we should call them? ^_^ ) operate. Also that offer is from two weeks ago and they haven't posted about it in Hookups anymore so it's likely over. :/

I bought my copy from this guy, reputable seller. That Hookups group is great, I got Bioshock Infinite for half its release price when it had just come out, from their other private seller. Really handy and helpful group :)

Well i managed to play the game on my brother's account, and i was surprised at how EASY the game is, even in hardcore Ranger mode: Yes you may die out of 3 shots (and they will too), but for starters it's really hard to get into a tight situation in the first place, with some exceptions, since the stealth system is pretty much what Splinter Cell was in the early years (take light source out, and you could walk in front of the enemy without him noticing you). Biggest "difficulty" in the game at that setting, is something a lot of gamers are already used to: loot everything, ammunition is scarse, so are filters (then again, due to what i mentioned earlier, i saw myself killing around 80% of the enemies with the knife, so that leaves the air filters for the outdoor parts).

That said, i did enjoy the story, as it gives the whole "dark ones" an interesting closure, though i'm not too sure if the game is worth to be replayed, sadly it has the same "pattern", storytelling wise as in 2033, which is not something exactly bad, but looking at it from a reader perspective instead of a gamer one, it may end up a bit disappointing to see a few similarities.

As a conclusion, i'd personally wait it out a bit more, the game is good, and while it presents itself as a true challenge, to me it was not too different from a cheap stealth mechanic that can be exploited, but the biggest thing is the lack of replayability. I guess you could try going all out on a difficulty such as Ranger mode Hardcore, but that IS suicide after all. The story is rather good, but the base of it is.....weak to me (as in it's incredibly easy to point how everything will turn out, the author is quite predictable in that sense).

I hope this was helpful.

Thank you for the feedback! :D
And I guess I'll wait a bit more then. From a story point of view I know absolutely everything from Metro 2033 and if it repeats I can already clearly see what's gonna happen(or at least have a good idea of what will happen). I don't know how Deep Silver's pricing and discounts strategy usually is but it can't take that long for the game to go 75% off... :)

Hey I've used simply games before and never had any problems. For physical discs as well. Cannot justify buying last light atm though. too many in the backlog

Answers to your questions:
1.yes 2.likely 3.No 4.Single player only and it's meant to be fantastic 5. I believe it runs well on PC but can put even high spec rigs through their paces

That's all your questions =]

Just bought Sniper Ghost Warrior 2 via PayPal, got the key after a minute or 2. Even though it looks shady as f* it's legit.

Just finished it tonight. Definitely worth it at that price. It's 2033 made even better. Great varied campaign, they nailed the immersive atmosphere, there's tons of hidden details and secrets to find, places to explore, and some of the conversations you overhear... well, just get it already! Well worth it.

Really the only problem is the stealth is really easy and dumbed down, you can stand practically in front of a guy in a sliver of shadow and not be seen...

Let's see... this is the moment where I criticize a lot of people for not reading the entire description and/or not figuring out that there is a hidden giveaway in it's source code hinted by the outlandishly out of place puzzle-related question. Oh well, better luck next time. :D
