Let's talk about Stream and buy mountains of games - Page 15 - Video Games

somebody jog my memory, because Red Faction doesn't quite seem like what I'm trying to remember: some sort of deathmatch/capture the flag online FPS where jetpacks and anti-grav are used. gunfare like plasma guns, disc launchers... game is probably 10 years old now but I can't seem to think of it, and Red Faction reminded me of tons of hours I spent on it. Swear it was some kind of one-word title like "Heroes" or something.

I want to pick up the Beyond the Sword expansion for Civ IV. Can I buy it on Steam for my hard copy game?

Bought this today. I was ashamed of being a huge Diablo/Action-RPG fan and having never played this. It was $5 for TQ + the expansion.

Hoping its a nice filler while waiting on the next nice filler (Torchlight 2).

FYI Steam is way overpriced. just looked it up and you can get Beyond the Sword for $6 on Amazon vs $20 on Steam.

Haven't used Steam before, I have a few questions. Is buying the game on Steam the same as buying a copy from a store? Do you get the same manuals, etc in digital form?

They have manuals in hardcopy games again? I usually just get a 2 page flyer.

Jokes aside, yeah. Right-click on a game and select " view game manual ". You then are directed to the PDF of the manual.

The digital files might take some getting used to, since I like playing and have the manual be easy to access, without having to tab out of my full-screen game.

Who reads the manual anymore? Basically all games these days have in game tutorials and give you all the information you need. Not to mention with a PC game you are usually setting up your own key-config anyways. It's not like 10 years ago where you pre-read the manual to get the storyline and need to refer back to it every 10 minutes to find out what an item does.

I did not play any new PC games in a very long time as I only had laptops since 4 years. Right now I am shocked how good Stalker looks (and how well it runs on my new laptop). Any suggestions what I missed the last years and shall play next?
