Thanks Walter! I haven't played any of the Max Payne games before, should I invest in the whole series and play from the beginning?

1 and 2 are great, you really have to play them. I haven't had a chance to buy 3 yet. Being broke is true suffering.

Max Payne 3 isn't directly connected to the previous games. I think there's a bit of a recap just to explain his emotional state at the beginning of the game, but no I don't think it's necessary to appreciate the third game.

That being said, Max Payne 1 and 2 are still pretty good. I liked 2 better than 1.

These days I already own pretty much everything that I want, so I just pick up small things for under $10. Once every big sale I'll buy something $20 or more. That's pretty much it.

The debilitating part of my sickness isn't the amount of money I spent, it's the CONSTANT VIGILANCE of deal hunting. :magni:

godgrave is me, thanks for the offer. I just realized, last time I played a game on Steam was a long long time ago. But I'll fix that and play DS till it breaks me. Isn't it the worst game ever :judo:?!

To send the gift, you'll need to either accept my invitation on Steam (last logged in 1 year ago?!) or send me your email address via PM.

I have to ask though, do you have a PC that can run the game? I seem to remember you only had a Mac. And do you have a controller that works with your PC? The game really isn't playable with keyboard+mouse. In fact, the notice for the game says: "Microsoft Xbox 360® Controller for Windows® (or equivalent) is strongly recommended."

But I'll fix that and play DS till it breaks me. Isn't it the worst game ever :judo:?!

No, Dark Souls is not the worst game ever... I actually consider it to be the best game of the generation.

A poor choice of words? Did you mean challenging? Despite what most people say, it's not THE HARDEST GAME EVER MADE. I've talked at length about its difficulty in the official thread. In summary, the game has strict, fair systems, and forces you to learn its rules through trial and error and keen observation. Learn those rules, and it's no more challenging than most other games. I guess the big difference, and the reason its difficulty gets so much attention is that it doesn't have any tutorial. It's a game grounded in the approach games of the 80s and 90s took: Learn our systems or go away.
 
They lie! I logged in this afternoon cos I had to figure out what my user ID was : p and yes, it's been a while since I hopped on. I played a Formula 1 game I'd bought at the time but I also got the PS3 CD, so I played it on the PS3 for convenience versus via Steam. I'm at work right now and can't accept the invite yet, so I'll PM you my email addy just in case.

Yep, PC it is (laptop to be specific - Vista Home Premium, 64 bit, 6 GB DDR, ATI Radeon HD 4650 for graphics, 1 GB video memory ... had her for 4 years, don't like Vista). I'm not familiar with Mac systems. Hmmmm ... I don't have an Xbox 360 controller, I can pick one up over the weekend, there's a Gamestop close by.

Right again, I did mean challenging or hard. I gave Dark Souls and Demon Souls as a present to a friend about a year ago. He told me it was hard and I might throw my gaming system out of the window. I don't have THAT level of game rage, I reckon the worse it could do is give me a headache haha. I love older games sure. So, I guess this'll be fun.
 
Okay, it's sent to the email address you provided. Hope that's the one associated with your Steam account.

Needs to be a 360 controller for Windows (Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Xbox-Wireless-Controller-Windows/dp/B004QRKWKQ/ref=pd_sim_sbs_e_3). Otherwise you will have to buy a separate USB adapter that wirelessly connects the controller to the PC.

I don't think I ever yelled or anything while playing Dark Souls. There were certainly challenging moments for sure, but the game always allows you a second chance to collect anything you lost in death. If you screw that up though, you do lose stuff (you can always just farm some enemies to get back souls though...).
 
Mhm DS-bought. Since I got it for Xbox on sale for 9.99 some months ago,those were best 10 bucks I've ever spent :D . Bought this also for steam. One day when I will have more powerful PC,I'll be sure to play the hell out of it.

Sweet, that helps. Took a print out to take with me when I go to buy it.

Walking Dead for about $6 on Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/207610

Won numerous game of the year awards last year. Great storytelling, but a rather boring game in my opinion. Fits nicely into the Walking Dead world.
