xp to Nhex, I have a NVIDIA GeForce 9400M -- do you think it'll run okay?

it might, but I'm a little skeptical. it may still run but you'll definitely have to lower resolution, details, etc. which may or may not matter in a game like Civ

the current GOG motto is "I LIKE IT CHEAP AND UNPROTECTED"

I wish you could activate GOG games on steam

these sales always backfire on me b/c I realize I need to drop 2k on a new computer for a $10 game, smh

picked up Trials 2 (it was $5, not $2.50; J'ACCUSE), Dangerous High School Girls In Trouble, and Colonization

well technically it was the Civ 4 complete pack which includes Colonization but w/e

Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble will probably be one of my last day pick-ups, hoping it goes on a daily

Bought railworks WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?

haha! god why would you do that, why

how was that pinball game? i didn't even know it existed

S'alright. Physics modelling is pretty good, and it looks nice, but the table design isn't great. The Pro Pinball titles are old but they're all still totally playable, and are cheap on gog, and this isn't better than any of those.

It's the promise of realistically modelled grim suburban backstreets that sold me on railworks. I just want to sit in first class and look out of the window.

Ha, also, one of the gameplay options is "exit on SPAD"!

£0.00 in the UK!

got res evil 5, but maaaan it's crap lol

damn you steam. i'm tempted to get New Vegas even though I just got FO3: GOTY on Monday...

wish that Borderlands sale was just a bit better, I would've bitten on all the DLC, but $20 for all 4 is just OK - they were cheaper during the summer sale!

the daily indie deal has generally been a dog, in contrast to the crazy value of the indie 5-packs

got res evil 5, but maaaan it's crap lol

^^ me, months ago, for more money

I have an extra copy of Monkey Island 2 SE (PC only?) to gift over Steam. If anyone's interested PM me.
