omg Hot Pursuit is a freaking joke! The presentation is awful, it takes five minutes just to get in your car and start racing because of videos. There is no start (the race starts with your car in motion) and I didnt even see an option to shift. Whatever "money" I get is void because I win like 3 cars each race :P

I can handle an arcade racing game but, c'mon EA!

Hopefully Shift is better.

My friend blew 65 bucks on Dragon Age Ultimate Edition and Dragon Age 2! I'm tempted to get NFS Shift, $6.80, that's the cost of a Big Mac meal right there! I'm pretty sure Crysis might be on sale, it's a popular EA title anyways. Crysis 2 might have a lower chance of being on sale, since its new.spiderman120988

one can hope. I think EA is slowly catching on to the fact that a brief sale on a relatively new game who's sales have declined sharply will cause a spike in sales. I mean Dead Space 2 was 39.99 a month after release, iirc.

Do you guys think that Crysis will be on sale? (the original Crysis)

Is it common for Crysis to be on a sale? I really want it...

Lox_Cropek

I've seen Crysis on sale more than a few times. My bet is that youll get the Maximum Edition (Crysis and Warhead) for 20-30 bucks or so.

So, Hot Pursuit is no good? I had heard otherwise so maybe I will reconsider now.

I just bought Undercover for $2.50. I might play it for a couple of hours, which is well worth the money :P

Holy hell, I'm buying a copy for a friend. Love this game!

Btw, is Undercover that bad? I heard it was horrible... but for $2.50..man....haha I also want Hot Pursuit but $15 is a bit much for me considering I already have my hands full with another racing game, Shift 2. My friend at work says it's incredibly fun though. Hmmmm!

HP is incredibly boring, think of it like Shift 2 without having any reason to play the game (that would be identical to Shift 1, good game, but extremely boring after a while) I'd rate Undercover higher than HP, it has slowdowns from time to time, but it's pretty fun, I even finished the story, no other NFS since U1 managed to make me finish the story (of course I love Shift 2 atm, but I already have too much to do in TDU 2 :P will continue playing Shift 2 after a few more weeks).

I kinda figured Hot Pursuit would get boring quite fast. Youtube'd a bunch of vids and it just doesn't seem like it's for me. I prefer having a goal, as oppose to mindless arcade gameplay. To each their own, in that respect though. Looks like I'll just keep plowing away in Shift 2 then. Thanks Daniel!

If the game is bad i suggest you not to buy even if its really cheap, i never liked buying bad/very medicore games only because they cheap. (or only to make my collection bigger).

I always laugh about people who say "i have 100 steam games" and when you look at the games, 75% of them like really bad, unless he really likes them all but i doubt it.

Good point and that's exactly what I've been thinking. I'll definitely pass. My library of games is nothing but games that I really like. The only game I can admit to buying because it was really cheap, yet bad, is Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands. That's about it for cheap, bad games. Thanks again you two.

What is the big difference between Shift and Shift 2? I purchased Shift last night (c'mon...$6?) but haven't played it yet...it's not fun at all?

*edit*

How's the force feedback in the game? I have a Logitech MOMO wheel and was hoping it was at least decent...I did a lot of digging and read conflicting reports. Some said it was really poor, others said after tweaking it was decent, and I wasn't sure what was posted before any patches and if any patches had made it better.

Thanks for helping me decide on this. I might pick up Hot Pursuit once it drops to under $10 but it seems like a good one to pass on (especially considering I have barely touched Dirt 2 at all).

Ugh. I really do want the Sims 3 to have on Steam, but it pisses me off that it's from 2009 and far newer games have gone on sale for cheaper. I'll give it a few years, then hopefully I can scoop up the entire series for a way cheaper price.

I'm hoping for an encore sale, but there's too many EA IPs that will potentially go on sale still...

  • Medal of Honor
  • Dead Space
  • BF
  • Crysis
  • C&C
  • Mass Effect
  • Sports
  • Spore

Damn...

BC 2's campaign is the worst excuse for a singleplayer experience for an FPS., only the first level is great, because of the sound and all the action, the rest is very bad.DanielDust

What if I haven't played a military FPS since Medal of Honor Frontlines? :P

Well NFS: Shift so far is bad...not that the game is actually bad...from what I can tell it does look fun...the problem is the wheel support is just insane. Can't turn left, dead zone is horrendous, no force feedback...the list goes on. I probably need to tweak a bunch of setting and it might be ok...but what makes it impossible is the first race is part of the introduction...so I have to tweak setting prior to starting the game. Problem is every time you start you have to watch the intro movie (skipping it is impossible), and you can't tweak the controls in game and you can't even EXIT from the race. I gave up after a few attempt so annoying. I'll probably try again later today but man it's frustrating.

So ME 1 is $5 and ME 2 is $10

i can get both ME 1 and 2 for just $15

now i've already played the hell out of these two for the 360....but for $15, hell i'd play them again on the PC

you guys think it's worth the pickup? are the PC versions that much more better to warrant the price?

I think all this "week sale" can't even be called sale, mass effect 1 should be 2.5 and the rest a little more cheap.

Until now I don't see where is the deal with the EA games being so expensive.
