    Really * need to get another PC, playing Overwatch on console is a bag of dicks.

    Overwatch on PC is great definitely recommend it. Doesn't require a great PC to run well either

    Sign your free time and your sleep away if you get Civ 5. Well worth it though. Still playing 5 so much I've only got 2 hours on 6!
    Csgo and Rocket League are great fun. Steep learning curves if you want to play at any decent level. I play csgo with my pals and RL with the missus lol.
    I struggle to pry myself away from the aforementioned. Let us know how you get on!

    Got Planet Coaster, Black Desert Online, Postal 2 and some DLC for Euro Truck Simulator.

    Got a Dirt 4 steamkey for 28.19 euro's on cdkeys.com btw. That's half the money.

    Got Costume Quest 1 and 2 for 1,99 euro´s. Just wanted part 2, but hey, for that price I might as well play part 1 sometime again in the future.

    So far just bought the parts of the Valve Bundle I didn't already own.

    Probably going to buy 35MM as well but only cause it's at £1.79.

    Might eventually throw some money at PUBG but I doubt that will be in the sale.

    I play Attila and warhammer TW now. Assuming it's rome 2 ur on about, it's a heap of *.

    I hate warhammer but the games quite fun. Attila I'd defo recommend over Rome ! Even shogun 2 was better

    Cheers mate. Is the Napoleonic version good? I do History at Uni so even in my late 20s still a bit of a boffin. Also walked into my lecturers office (tweed jacket/cain/civil war beard, the lot) who writes a lot about France's great little fella and he was playing it! :56:

    Aye, but if you're gonna get a TW game start wae Napoleon. Empire is decent too but too cartoony.

    Then Shogun 2 (honestly, it's really good).

    Then Attila. With Attila, you get other campaigns like the rise of Charlemagne and Belisarius' campaign to reconquer Rome.

    If you start the other way round, the graphics will obviously get worse etc and less features.

    I honestly wouldn't bother with Rome 2.

    How is euro truck sim?
    Downloaded the demo and was alright. But wasnt sure on longevity (no, not a joke). But got the whole ScS bundle in my basket. Euro truck sim 1 and 2 and all dlc, and American truck sim. Tempted to pull the trigger on the sale before it ends.


    Also for The Hunter:call of the wild (?) waiting to buy as well. Looks visually great and could see it passing a couple hours quite easily.

    It´s just like the title of the game says. It´s a sim, so you have to obey the traffic rules, and deliver goods all over Europe etc. Played it again yesterday (See my thread) and after a couple of hours I'm getting tired cause the constant paying attention at he speedlimit etc. I think it's great fun, but I worked as a truck driver for a short while. It's not a game for everyone that's for sure
