    Counterstrike requires practice to learn the weapon spray etc. also ping is a lot more important than tf2 and its spam style shooting/exploding. Also people know the maps and likely camping spots. Possible reasons for your demise.

    Re: Steam Summer Sale is on!

    I haven't bought anything in the Steam sale so far.

    Has anyone played Divinity II or Mafia? Are they any good?

    Does anyone have any other recommendations from today's offers?

    Re: Steam Summer Sale is on!

    Mafia is probably worth a punt at £5. I would have liked Dirt 3 to be closer to £15 myself - guess I'll just wait for the Halloween/Christmas sale for that.
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    I'll get around to testing when I've got a chance, PC in use more often than not. Have been keeping up on the progress
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    Re: Steam Summer Sale is on!

    The Steam sale has been updated again. Doesn't look like a very good day for deals. Might consider Sam & Max for £6.24 (75% off). Portal 2 and DeadSpace 2 are also on offer today, but only 50% off. Not amazing.

    Terraria 4 Pack (£4.49) for less than the normal cost of a single copy. Sounds good to me

    I didn't really pay much attention to that, as I've never heard of that game before. It looked like something you might download for free from the Android Market

    Is it any good then?

    According to the reviews, yes. Looked pretty interesting in Giant Bomb's Quicklook too. For the price I won't complain if it entertains me for a few hours. About the same price as a loaf of bread

    I checked out that Quicklook - it does look quite interesting actually. And like you say, you can't really go wrong for £1.49.

    For anyone who hasn't already got them, I'd also recommend Fallout 3, and Mass Effect 1 and 2 - all of which are currently 66% off.

    Re: Steam Summer Sale is on!

    Post Apocalyptic Mayhem (PAM) looks tempting at £1.49 (or £3.74 for a 3-Pack). Judging from this video, it reminds me of Vigilante 8 but with a focus on racing too.

    EDIT: This video appears to give more detail.

    Thanks, just bought the 3 pack. It's been on offer before but with it having just 3 tracks, I'd passed. Noticed there's free DLC* adds, among other things, another track. Got to keep encouraging those developers who improve on initial releases with more than bug fixes

    Edit: *Needs to be added through the store.
