Sales are trash today. Bit.Trip beat for the same price as in the pack yesterday? World of Goo again? Orange box is a fantastic deal, but everyone already has it, right? And no indie pack! This day is definatly the worst.

Why would I buy a game for 5$ today that was on sale with 4 other games for 5$ yesterday.


I am so buying the Aeronautics pack tomorrow!

There are 2 turn based strategy games, one story based, the other all about customization. There is a FPF (first person flyer?), which looks cool, and a third person side scroller, which looks extremly meh. But there is that cool suicide game, which looks so awesome.

I cant wait to see the deals tomorow!

The first person flyer, DogFighter, is Ok. I had my eye on it since the day of release but never wanted to jump right in as I read it had terrible controls. It went on sale a while later so I picked it up, played a couple of minutes of it and that was it for a few months. The controls weren't great, and they didn't have controller/joystick support. A few weeks ago I tried it again after reading about better controls, although my PS3 controller didn't seem to work properly, I managed to have an hour or so of fun using the keyboard.

I played the demo of the side scroller game, can't remember it's name. Also felt difficult to control and not much fun against the AI. Plain sight is still a game that intrigues me and I really want to try it and see what the hell it is :p

Also the strategy games...haven't really seen much of them but don't really interest me. I might buy the pack when it's on sale though. Maybe...*sniff*...Maybe
