BioShock 2 available for pre-purchase

Published by Kevin under All Other Games

For all of you BioShock fans out there, BioShock 2 is available for pre-purchase on Steam. Regular price is $49.99, but its on sale for $44.99 for a limited time.

It looks like 2K Games learned their lesson the first time around and decided to include multiplayer in Bioshock 2. But, I winder if the multiplayer is going to use Gamespy or Steam? Will LAN support be included, or just internet?

Post your comments in the BioShock 2 available for pre-purchase thread of the forums.

Steam holiday sale

Published by Kevin under All Other Games

The Steam Holiday sale has come and gone – it was fun while it lasted.  There were some good deals, and some not so good deals.

The ID package still does not have Quake 4, or Quake Wars – so its not a complete ID package.

There is no real Command and Conquer package to speak of.  When are we going to get C&C Gold, Red Alert or Red Alert 2 on Steam?

Painkiller: Resurrection 38 metacritic rating – why is that game even being offered on Steam? Surely there are some standards that games have to meet before their sold to the public?

The Unreal package seemed like a good buy – 5 games for around $13.  That one was difficult to pass up.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl was on sale for $2, so I snatched that one up.

Now its time to start saving up some money for the 2010 – 2011 Steam Holiday sales.
