Every time the narrator talks I just wanna crank up some smooth jazz and open a bottle of scotch.

By all accounts it's a great game--I just can't get past the art style--too cutesy for me, I guess.

Hmmm... At $20 or $30 this ain't worth picking up. At $7.49? Hmmm...

by **Baroquen** » Thu May 03, 2012 6:15 pm

I've been waiting for Arkham City. (Still waiting for the DLC.. will see if I play any challenge maps to make it worth it this weekend, before the sale ends). Heck, it might even jump the gaming backlog. Whoo-hoo!

I can't figure out if this is a sequel to Revenge of the Titans or if it came before--does anyone know?... Either way, I loved RotT so I'll probably snag it.

by **Isgrimnur** » Fri May 04, 2012 3:13 pm

Previous to Revenge, same publisher, etc. Read the blurb for Revenge and it's very suggestive that it's the follow up.

Prequel. Story is we beat the Titans on Earth in "Attack" and we chased them to Mars in "Revenge"

Fun enough tower offense game. You play the attackers instead of the defenders.

by **TheMix** » Wed May 09, 2012 12:21 pm

In for both Portal 2 and Alan Wake. Now I just have to figure out when I can get some time to play them...

Now that is seriously tempting (although I think it was on sale for the same price before, no? Maybe even less?)

I assume it will be in the December sale at some point for $29.99 or less.

Must....resist...no time to play...soooo many games in backlog...

This is what it was during the X-mas sale (when I bought it). Mods are starting to really show up for it...
