Vampire - The Masquerade <or> Bargain Bin Goodies!
 

I just reinstalled "Vampire The Masquerade - Redemption" by Nihilistic today and started playing through it again. It's a good Diablo-esque RPG with pretty decent graphics and a fun story. You can pick it up at in the "bargain bin" of a software store for around $10, and it's well worth it. If you end up purchasing it, you will need the 1.1 patch (3 mb) which is all over, or I can send it to you.

That looks pretty cool mate, might look around for it :D

fuckaduck! i forgot a friend has that game!

im not sure how many people care, but some good older games are cheap right now. One of the few reasons i've been playing more pc games

Fallout 1&2 for $10, might and magic 6 for $7, planescape: torment (eh oh eh oh) and some other game $10. you get the idea

torment would be awesome if i didn't give you descriptions about shit you SEE.


'he is wearing a red jacket'

i'm figuring thats why there is a picture of him in a red jacket!

I picked up Tony Hawk 3 for $10, and then a knock-off of the ps controller for my comp for another $10. Been pleased with both so far.

My fav is finding HL for $5-$10 on clearance and picking it up for the CD key. I always seem to have new friends wanting to play Counterstrike.

Another really good bargain-bin game is No One Lives Forever. You can probably find it for $10-20 now, and it is a great game. It's a FPS set in the 60s, with kind of a female-Austin-Powers feel to it. There is a constant barrage of witty humor along with some sophomoric puns thrown in for fun. It's a capable FPS even without the humor, and should be enjoyable by anyone with a frontal lobe.

got tribes 1 and 2 for 5 bucks!
Also picked up a copy of black and white, and Sacrifice for 5 bucks a pop.
Good deals..Bad Employees (bastards at Babbages)

I like to jump in the bargain bins and roll around.

There were some big issues with Vampire. Number one: they promoted it the same way that Neverwinter Nights was promoted, with tools so you could make your own campaigns and stuff... then as it turned out, You needed a PhD in computer science and engineering to figure out the tools, so very little mod community ever sprung up. Number two: Half the game took place in midaeval times, the other half in modern times, but guns were totally useless, so you ended up running around in modern day gritty city hacking people with swords (cause it was more effective)

Given that, the single player game was still pretty fun. The next Vampire game is geing made by Troike, so it should rock.

Oh wait.. we were talking about bargain bin. Hell yeah, there are a lot of great games in the bargain bins for PC, or for consoles. Half of my purchases are "didn't get it the first time around, and now it's 10 bucks! score!" type purchases.

I am all about the bargain bin games. My friend picked up American McGee's Alice for 8 bucks the other day, and it's enjoyable enough. Best buy I ever had was X-COM: Apocalypse for $1.05 after tax. Sure, the game was shit, but I certainly got my dollar's worth out of it. I've seen Dungeon Keeper 1&2 bundled for like $10, too. That's a bargain and a half. EB pisses me off, though, they sell games that are three years old for like $5 off the original price. Bullshit. And they price used games like 10-15% cheaper than new, even for really old games. That shit should be closer to 40% off.

that fallout pack is an awesome deal.....

and if you can get both tribes games for 5 bucks thats a good deal too........ all 4 of those games has wasted countless amounts of time for me

Dungeon Keeper and Dungeon Keeper 2 were wonderful games -- Bullfrog is one of the most under-rated game makers around.

Last week, I got a pack of; Command & Conquer Renegade, Hot Pursuit, Freedom Force and Heart & beyond for 30$. Just Freedom Force is worth the money.

I just picked up Mafia at target for $12.48. Sweet game but hard.

i love Vamp the masquerade... kickass game, aside from that, i got slave zero once upon a time at Big Lots for like 5 bucks bundled in with another game or two... Slave Zero, kickass game in the vein of Neon Genesis

I always shop in the bargain bin. I have gotten Vampire, Fallout 1&2, planescape, Tony Hawk 3, Kohan, and even Max Payne for $10 or less. It's good stuff

there are so many cool games, to be had in bargain bins. i did have the fortune to enjoy vamp the masq, the first time around...and it was cool then. but as someone mentioned above, it was sort of solded as something you could "run" on your mates. which didnt really work too easy ( i never used it :(

Jagged Alliance 2.

That's all I have to say about that.

I love Dungeon Keeper and Dungeon Keeper 2, the Dark Mistress Rules!

And so does NOLF!

Any one tried Heavy Metal FAKK 2? I saw it for like $7 the other day.

FAKK is worth the $7 -- it's "just another FPS", but anything that has a chainsaw-sword is worth $7.
