Thought I'd make a post in case any of you folks haven't seen this. Games for Windows is having a 1 day sale for Age of Empires III Complete (original game + expansion(s)). The price of the game is $.10 (10 cents). If you are even remotely curious about age of empires III and haven't picked it up, I think now might be a good time. Deal ends today at 10PM PT http://www.gamesforwindows.com/en-US/dailydeal/day7/

OK - for those of you that play eve online, why would I want to buy this game and get a subscription? I actually would purchase the game and I am interested. Anyway, the graphics look great, but I'm not sure I'd love the game. I haven't purchased a single MMO yet. What do you think? Thanks!

Hiya folks, So quick plug. I just picked up WoW along with all of the expansions. I've been pretty hestitant to get into MMOs, but I'm going to give WoW a shot. If you have been curious about the game and would like to give it a shot with someone else that is inexperienced (and level at 3x the normal rate), respond here. I think it would be fun to play with some of you stardock board folks. Anyway, there is a free 10 day trial, so if you just want to give it a go...

Anyone know anything interesting? http://www.joystiq.com/2011/02/07/gas-powered-games-rts-kings-and-castles-on-hold/ I know Sorian ( http://soriandev.blogspot.com/ ) was spending quite a bit of his time working on this, but his blog updates have dropped off. Anyway, I wonder what's going on at GPG. Here's the last video blog (entertaining anyway) from Oct 2010.

The link I provided let's you know if your state has access restored. They are starting with the US and moving to other regions. Online play is first to get restored. Not sure if they force a reset of your password or not. But if they don't, make sure you do. Some ass out there has your passwor...

Just saw this and figured I'd pass it on for any of you that have been holding out. Starcraft II is on sale through Nov 28th through Blizzard as a digital download. If you are familiar with Blizzard's pricing, you really don't often see a good deal on their titles for a LONG time after they are released. So, if you have been on the fence and still want this game, this is a great opportunity to save some $$. Here's some more info on the deal, but I think...
So, during the (12 day or so) downtime with the MP servers, I decided to give LoL another go and have been enjoying myself. I'm glad DG is back up and running, but the break was enough for me to try another competitive DoTa style game and start to enjoy it. This thread isn't about bashing DG or any nonsense (so don't ffs). Its simply a place for those of us that play or have played DG and now play LoL as a main or occasionally to discuss the game and keep in touch.&...
Warhammer 40K: Space Marine $12.50 - registers on Steam I've been waiting for a good deal on this one and it has arrived. Just saw this over at slick deals. Cheapest price yet. You can get it a greenmangaming.com. Site is reputable (only heard good things over on slick deals). You'll get the serial and can then register that on Steam and download direct from Steam. Here's a link to the deal: http://slickdeals.net/?sdtid=3786944&sdfpid=667...

Just saw this over at slick deals and picked it up. Dead Island (PC) is on sale for $9.99 at new egg (free shipping/no tax). Not sure if this is just a one day deal or what exactly, so check this out asap if you've been wanting this. I believe this is the retail packaging, but you can likely register it through steam and download if that's your preference. Here's a link to the deal directly: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1683222003...

So, this might be a silly post, but I'm hoping it might be encouraging to the devs (after a fashion anyway). You know how there are several moments in history where you remember where you were and what you were doing when things happened? On the extreme negative, I'd wager many of us know exactly where we were and what we did on Sept 11. Things like that are etched in our brains. Switching extremely quickly to the positive ( ), there are many other things that ...

Who would be interested in a LoL tourney? Reply here asap if you have any interest. Thanks! pacov
Most of you that follow the forums here know me from posts on Demigod and League of Legends. For those that don’t, I’m generally a very hard core, competitive player in DotA (MOBA) style games. They are my video game bread and butter. That said, the past few days of gaming have me thinking on a topic that’s come up many times in the past for me: being a good sport. For me, its not the easiest thing to balance. By nature, I’m not a very ...
I'm streaming a bit tonight. Check it out if you like. Nothing super exciting, but you can probably watch me either do well or fail. http://www.own3d.tv/live/57122 Note - not for profit or any such rot - just figured out how to stream

Just thought I'd get this going and then weigh in sometime soon. I picked it up and, so far, absolutely love it. My first character is a Sith Juggernaut Warrior. I love how its really story driven and the huge amount of voice acting. I also dig how crafting is setup. Anyway, all the time I'm going to put into this post for now... back to playing Thought I'd update this with some useful info instead of having to dig through the thread. Clan info,...
