THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH GAMERSGATE
*Calm voice * Gamersgate is a similar service to Steam. I've used them both several times. I've never had a problem with GG at all. And they have the game for $9.99 now. So where can you go wrong?

Oh I like gamersgate, but I'm saying moreso it'd be beneficial for King's Bounty (and it's developers/community) to be available on Steam to boost it's popularity, gain some extra sales in the process, and grow a bigger community if it was offered on Steam. It's not a gamersgate vs. steam vs. other download service issues, it's more of, why not get the extra exposure for King's Bounty.
There's a lot of prospective clients on Steam that don't use other download services and it's free front-page advertising for newly listed Steam games. It usually doesn't make sense to ignore one of the most popular direct download services. Even if it debuted as a weekend deal at 9.99 and higher otherwise it'd still be good exposure. Granted it would probably be better to gain the extra publicity & advertising closer to the expansion pack release date. Right now let Gamersgate get the majority of sales at 9.99, but in a few weeks/months when those dry up, it'd be good to advertise to other prospective customers (steam). |

It's now available on Steam and I'm going to get it. I have nothing against Gamer's Gate but I buy ALL my games on Steam. I love it and I'm not going to change now. I have everything in one place with in-game chat and web browser.
Is there a head-to-head multiplayer going to be ever added? That would be awesome. |

Right now it's going for $20 on Impulse.
http://www.impulsedriven.com/kingsbounty I would avoid buying on Steam like the plague. This particular game seems to completely break when moving between some versions. Some are unstable, some have a different way of handling saved games. (read: incompatible) Being forced to use the latest version is not good. I don't believe Impulse has any DRM. You can set it up as an external game in Steam and get all the benefits of the Steam overlay. Save yourself $10 and some annoyance at the same time. ________ drug test kit Last edited by bugmenot; 01-23-2011 at 02:05 AM. |
