D2D UK offer

Scary treats at lower prices. A few "scary" (or scary) games for sale for a few days.

I already have dead space, bioshock, vampire and condemned, but the rest are interesting games too.
I am considering to get Damnation, although it has been called a bad game but most publications. The reason is the story, the world, the game mechanics and a few gameplay videos from gamers that are just very good.
It looks like people who condemn the game do it because it isn't what they wanted it to be and not for what it is.

Re: D2D UK offer

Thank you.
I was going to type a joke about the speed, but I forgot to lol.

I will wait till tomorrow (well today) to see what weekend offers are available from the other stores, and unless I find something much better, I will get this. Without playing it, it just feels good enough for £7.50.

Re: D2D UK offer

I consider Condemned one of the most brutal and scary games , smash someone head with pipe. It was really the most scary game I enjoyed.

Re: D2D UK offer

Re: D2D UK offer

Condemned can be scary due to the limited amount of ammo and very low light conditions.
But, it is far shorter game than Stalker and between the two I would choose Stalker.

Re: D2D UK offer

Id actually go with Condemned over stalker, but im not a fan of the stalker game style, so its maybe not a great opinion to base a sale on. Condemned had a really awesome atmosphere I think, a little like being in a horror novel.

Re: D2D UK offer

Yes , Condemned is relatively short but it is amusing and ambient sounds are scary as well , if you like horror games , it is better for you.

Re: D2D UK offer
