I'm a huge fan of 2D Worms and I already have it pre-ordered. Sounds like a good idea CB, everyone get it and let's have some tourneys.

Klapaucius: Morrowind is certainly better I've played both quite extensively. Oblivion did improve the combat, graphics, UI, the arena, and not a better story but a better delivery. Other than that Morrowind is bigger, badder, more variety, way more factions, more armor, weapons and pretty much everything.

Adding you on Steam right now. Anyone else up for some Worms action?

Hey, anyone try that Steam game called "Swarm Arena"? It looked pretty interesting from the trailer, but I'm not entirely sold on it. Kinda looks like it could become bland after a few times playing it.

Hmmm, no but it looks very interesting if just for multiplayer on the same comp. Also, I like the Geometry Wars-esque visuals, thanks for telling me about this. I'll probably wait for some reviews, but it looks fun...

@Blink While doing some research, I found two reviews for the game. One of them is from the guys over at Rock, Paper, Shotgun while the other one is from DIY Gamer. While I'm not familiar with either of them, they both do call the game fun if you're looking for something new in the Geometry-Wars-arcade-shooter niche-genre. You can check out the reviews here:

Thanks for that Rock, Paper, Shotgun review, I'd already read the DIYgamer one (really like the color use though, makes it easy to scan) and it does look fun, but I don't think I'm quite willing to throw down a whopping nine bucks for it maybe I'll wait for a sale and then strike...

Just giving everyone a heads up that Worms Reloaded is released in 2 days (August 26). If you order it before then, you get a 10% discount and exclusive preorder items. If you're interested it would be best to buy it ASAP so we can pwn each other Worms-style with all the bells and whistles. (I want more Worms buddies I can slaughter wholesale with donkeys kthx)

Definitely thinking about it, Mackerel.

God I have so many games soaking up my time/money. I feel like I'm 10 again.

Plain Sight is a mere $2 for Midweek Madness. I only got to play about an hour of it, but it's pretty fun if a bit disorienting at first. Shame my laptop is trrrrble.

I believe if you buy Worms: reloaded before the 2nd, you can get a new outfit for the soldier in TF2. I read something about it on the TF2 blog.

Darn it, I totally missed the sale on Plain Sight, there's still time though...

What's the general consensus about Plain Sight anyway?

@HolyMackerel I personally enjoy it a lot. As for something that's more elaborate, the Metacritic score is a solid 76. Personally, it's your call, but I think it's worth a whole two dollars.

I agree with the ninja. For $2 you can't really go wrong. I paid $10 and feel happy about my purchase.

I disagree with the ninja. I paid about $2 for it when it was part of a larger package, and I feel as though I'd prefer a $2 refund.

What pre-purchase bonuses did they have for Worms Reloaded?
Is Worms Reloaded a remake of an old Worms game?

I don't think that there was a pre-purchase bonus.

I picked up ToMI and Puzzle Agent recently.
ToMI is great, as TellTales P&C games are, but Puzzle Agent could have been better.

I'm going to be buying X-Com pretty soon, along with one of the original Fallouts. I'm wondering which is better though? Fallout 1? 2? Tactics? If anyone has played all three and could give me a recommendation, that would be fantastic.
