Serious Sam HD Double pack @ $2.99. Worth it? I remember reviews were not so good.

Re: Steam related discussions

There is another pack on sale for $3.99. I think it also includes the two older versions of the game. No idea how good or bad the games themselves are.

From personal experience going back 3 years - only buy stuff that you are quite sure you will play. I have at least 10 games sitting on my list that have not been played for even 30mins. Some haven't even been downloaded once! And they are good games - I just bought too many and don't have enough time lol

PS: 22GB NTW downloaded, ETW 7GB done, 8 GB more to go. Airtel is going to kill me!

That was me. Thanks for the update. Unfortunately, I wanted to buy FIFA 12 but it is still available at the same cost :cry:

Re: Steam related discussions

Skud the serious sam HD double pack is worth it. It is just a facelifted version of the classic, and I thouroughly enjoyed it.

Thanks. Will buy it. Serious Sam 3 is also getting good reviews, hope it will be on sale on Christmas.

@baccilus:
try purchasing through Opera with Opera Turbo on. It might just worked.

Please do post feedback if everything goes right.

@Skud: Even after the discount FIFA 12 is for $20 which is costlier than it's retail price here. So no point in buying it IMHO.

Re: Steam related discussions

OK, got your point. Actually at my place there's no way to access a physical game, it has to be a download, either way.

I think you better purchase it from the store. There's no point waiting for this game, too much waiting and FIFA 13 will be knocking at the door. And Origin will most probably won't lower the price further even during Christmas.

Search for games in the Origin store. They are cheaper here in India than the EA international price. I guess that's why they don't put up any sales here.

Yeah, you are better off purchasing elsewhere. And I completely forgotten Flipkart, Letsbuy. Those are of course better option.

Civ V with all DLCs (except one - Korea pack I think) and Deluxe content for only $16 for today's deal. Sounds good if you're a TBS fan.

Re: Steam related discussions

Need help! Trying to install Brink, it says "Preparing Brink files to install" , then the bar slows down, and gives "Steam Error-The steam servers are too busy to process your request at the moment. Please try again after few minutes." But behind it the normal "Your download has started-Visit game library" window comes too. The game shows "Download starting" and just stuck there. xD WTH do I do? I have changed server location from singapore to many other places, didn't work. Have renamed ClientRegistry.blob too. Doesn't work. BAD STEAM. Someone help please.
EDIT- OK Problem solved. Emailed support and its started downloading just fine. lol. Thanks for nothing. xD
