    On a completely unrelated note: Is anyone else experiencing frequent disconnects from the friends services, or is it just me? It's only the friend list as well, I can play online just fine. Everything bar Alien Swarm and L4D that is, at least if you want to play with your friends.

    I bet it's got something to do with the horrible game matching mechanics in Alien Swarm. They really should've polished the game a bit more, include a decent Lobby instead of the way you jump right into the game at the moment and attached price tag along the lines of $10 to the game. :(

    Edit: The games themselves are working just fine. But when I loose connection to the friends server I cannot invite them to a game or when they are trying to join a game I'm hosting they cannot.

    Alien Swarm's working OK for me - maybe a lobby will come soon? With Valve you never get the finished article right away.

    Back to the horse-killing jokes: "You unlocked achievements: It's Glue For You! +500pts"

    Lead & Gold having issues on start up, about 85% loaded then the game just closes, no error messages, so I'm struggling to find what is the matter with it:waah:

    I'll give that a shot now, thanks. Just from looking at the reviews and the odd vid, worth every penny, might be back in 30 minutes with a very different post.


    edit: that's going to be one for the recycle bin, gets to the same point every time, then closes (very quickly too) still no error messages to give me so much as a hint why :duh:

    Eufloria, 50% OFF, £7.49

    It's an indie game ... and I ... dunno ... maybe I'm getting tight in my old-age, but even £7.49 seems steep ...

    If the bargain price was £2.99 I'd definitely bought it. I shall wait it out for this one.

    Oh and metascore gave it 63/100, userscore 7.4 which is quite respectable.

    There's a sticky thread intended for newcomers claiming that it isn't 'as updated' (in other words FIXED if you ask me) as longer running games such as CS/HL series. Still no excuse to ignore a good chunk of players getting the same errors despite apparent fixes.

    Had a bit of a go at it tonight. Thought it was good for a free play, can't see myself buying it.

    I enjoyed it but for a couple of pound in the Christmas sale, not sure its really got the legs for a £8 game tbh.
