[PC] [STEAM] Steam Holiday Sale December 20th to January 5th - Page 17

I just bought AC Brotherhood and Revelations for $15, first purchases so far in this sale. I'm not a huge fan of Ubisoft and their BS DRM schemes, but the games are fun.

I only played AC2 and the uplay DRM is horrible, hows the DRM on the newer games? Same garbage?

YEAH!!!! FARMING SIMULATOR FOR NEXT COMMUNITY CHOICE!!!1oneone!1

Serious note: Is Just Cause 2 worth the 3.75? Better than GTA4 on PC? Trying to decide whether to wait for the GTA 4 standalone to be on sale for like 5$, or just grab Just Cause 2 because of the horrible port issues I've heard about GTA 4. Only ever played it on 360, so I have no frame of reference for how bad the PC version is.

I'd go with JC2 over GTA 4 because I hate Games For Windows Live.... but if you enjoy playing with friends and don't care that you have to use GFWL GTA is a really fun game despite it being a horrible port.

Also quick note, JC2 has a beta multiplayer mod that can be quite fun when they get a chance to run it - https://www.jc-mp.com/

I actually do not mind GFWL at all as 1) I have XBL and it adds to my gamerscore on there and 2) I dont mind the save system (at least how they did it in Batman: AC).

Exactly what I didn't want to happen happened: GTA in all its forms is now on sale at the exact same time as JC2. Not to mention Witcher 2 and Bioshock 2. Ugh.

Today is by far the best day of the sale for me.

Well then, GTA is really fun and might be the one for you. I'm thinking of getting Witcher 2 but I don't know anything about it =/

I think I'm going to grab witcher 2 myself. Both AngryJoe and a close buddy of mine both recommend it a million times over. From what I know its kind of a Skyrim/Fable mix? RPG elements, somewhat restricted free world, and a more linear story. Plus the graphics are supposed to be incredible.

My only hold up about GTA 4 is that I beat it already on 360. Not the Stories though. Still thinking of JC2 instead.

Yeah GTA 4 single player is only fun with mods, IMO the only thing that makes GTA 4 worth it is the multiplayer aspect, nothing is funner then grabbing a few friends and racing cars and all around causing mayham. Witcher does look good but I only have $10 so this decision is pretty hard for me.

Witcher 2 $7.50 is a no brainer. I held off on the gog one because I wanted it in my Steam collection and patience paid off!
