Oh really?? I was going to pick up Max Payne 2 for $2.49 even though I own the original on disk but with all of the patches etc. needed I just figured it would way easier to install it all through Steam I was thinking, and this way I can play it again in preparation for Max Payne 3. But if there are issues with Win 7, than no need to pick it up at all.

Yup, thats why they say in the required system as Win 2000/XP (Only) :(

I was going to purchase them too even though I have both the original CD's (sounds strange saying CD now :p)

I did just purchase the Eidos pack mentioned earlier in the thread, ?35 is a steal even though I already have Batman the others are well worth the price.

Okay well I am glad I checked out this thread first and know, so thanks for the info.

And I saw you purchased the Eidos pack, under the recent activity or however they word it you had a HUGE list of games. (Y)

I've gotten a few more since my last post: Picked up Max Payne 1 & 2 and CoD: World at War today, got Jade Empire yesterday, and Dead Space the day before that, and Battlefront 2 collection & World in Conflict/WiC: Soviet Assault the day before that.

I've gotten a crapload of cheap games in the last month. :D I'll probably still get Ghostbusters and Assassin's Creed before the sale is over, and maybe a couple of other things depending on the daily deals.

I cracked last night. I've been trying so hard to hold off on buying the Eidos pack since the sales started, but for the price, you can't really go wrong. You're basically buying Arkham Asylum and getting like 20 (pretty decent) games free, absolute steal.

... That said, I think I'm gonna be here until the end of time waiting for 8GB of B:AA to download :laugh:

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      By Zeromus2003 · Posted

      Not sure there is good value here.... the only real choice is 2GB w/ Controller since 1. 512GB would disappear fast based on today's PC game installs 2. Controller is back ordered until 2027. The appeal of playing PC games on TV (along with PS5) sounds interesting, but I am not too lazy to fire up the huge PC either. Not really sure this would be "worth" it.

    • EA Sports UFC 6 review: Brutal, satisfying, and surprisingly accessible to newcomers

      By Steven P. · Posted

      Because we were never offered a UFC game to review it in the past. Sometimes it's not a conspiracy, the reviewer does not even live in the U.S. and didn't ask for it.

    • Apple releases iOS 27 Beta 2 for developers and power users

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple releases iOS 27 Beta 2 for developers and power users by Aditya Tiwari It's been a couple of weeks since Apple previewed the iOS 27 update during the WWDC official keynote. The upcoming iOS version will bring even more refinements to the Liquid Glass design language, an upgraded Siri AI assistant, and several new Apple Intelligence features. Interestingly, the latest WWDC keynote was different than previous years. Apple has released the iOS 27 beta 2 (build 24A5370h) for developers who want to test the new features being baked for the iPhone and optimize their apps. If you're interested in downloading the latest beta, go to Settings > General > Software Update > beta Updates, then choose iOS 27 Developer Beta. You can download the latest iOS 27 beta on more than 30 supported iPhones. Make sure you know what you are doing since developer betas can be unstable and unexpected at times. If you want to be on the safer side, you can wait for the public beta, which will arrive next month. It's been a while since Apple discontinued its AirPort router lineup. Now, the company said in the iOS 27 beta 2 release notes that the AirPort Utility is deprecated and won't be available for new downloads from the App Store. Apple added that if you previously downloaded the app, you can re-download it. However, the functionality isn't guaranteed when using the AirPort Utility on iOS 27 or later. Speaking of known issues, Apple said that the Portrait mode blur effect might render incorrectly for photos; you may be unable to stop an alarm from the lock screen without unlocking your iPhone; the "Add a Control" button in Control Center edit mode might appear small or clipped. There are several new features in iOS 27 beta 2 as well. It comes with Neural Engine improvements for Apple Intelligence, including better performance when loading large models over 1GB. HomeKit Secure Video recordings are processed on-device and through Private Cloud Compute for video descriptions and search, when Apple Intelligence is enabled in the Home app. That said, you can also download the second betas of macOS 27 Golden Gate, iPadOS 27, watchOS 27, and other Apple operating systems.
