AAAAAaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAaaaaaaaaaa is pretty entertaining. Once you get around the slightly bizarre controls that is. Its not going to be a game you sink 50 hours into, but its worth a couple of quid.

If anyone wants, i have a Steam key for the new humble bundle. Fieldrunners, BIT.TRIP BEAT, SpaceChem, and Uplink, all as one key. Spacechem is definitely a look if you enjoy puzzles.
Also, since i paid above the average, i have a key for a Lemmings style game called Spirits as well.

Uplink makes you feel like a leet haxx0r, lots of frantic working against a clock, i haven't played that much of it to be honest, but it's kind of like what i imagine hollywood style people think hacking is really like. Not played Fieldrunners. It looks like your basic tower defense. I'll send you a key anon.

Uplink is wierd. Excellent but wierd. It is a kind of simulator of hollywood haxxing, as in its fuck all like real hacking but its presented in a dead straight, "realistic" manner. If that makes sense at all. Whatever, its good fun and the accelerated beeping noise of an incoming trace is the stuff that nighmares are made of. Its a little DF in its approach to learning too. Expect to fail a lot.

Spirits is alright. Ive got it for the iPad. Its not the most taxing puzzle game in the world, but its quite pretty, and strangely relaxing.

I was after a Lemming-like a little while ago for the iPad but couldn't find one. I'd still prefer it for the iPad (and may still get it on that), but if nobody else wants it I wouldn't mind it.

Just checked my inventory and it appears I have two copies of Left for Dead 2, and one copy of Portal if anybody is interested?

PC Gamer is giving away Europa Universalis 3 with all the expansions this month. Looks good if you are in to super hardcore historical strategy sims. I am not.

Stick this code in Steam if you want it, and post on here when you have done. First come first served, etc:

Anyone played this?, Is it more of a buildy than a fighty type thing?.

Actually it just sounds a bit scary:

Sounds like Friz would like it. Can't think of anyone else though.

I think I played the demo, but it didn't grab me. Was more about accruing resources and taking over neighbours than building cities and as it's based on a board game, it's just map tiles for each province with little sprites on like counters.
