Steam had a sale Halloween weekend... 50-75% off selected spooky titles. I got hubby a gift of the
Left 4 Dead
bundle... at a third of the price I got it for myself. Grr. But I got myself the
Overlord
bundle, so it's all good.
I'd said I wasn't going to get Overlord... I'd already played the first one on the Xbox 360, and given up because I found it frustrating. There are no clear road signs, and the paths are just loopy enough to get oneself turned around... a bad thing for an evil overlord stomping through the countryside.
So after the trick or treaters slowed down to a trickle, I got a little gaming time in with my new games (I also picked up
Batman: Arkham Asylum
and the Steam version of
Plants vs. Zombies
for an absolute steal). Overlord is better on the PC for some reason. I *did* have to look up the map online, which had been included with my previous version, but not this one, not even in PDF format, but maybe I have more patience now, or maybe it's the difference between playing on your couch and playing up close to a PC.
In any case, Halloween was a great time.
