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:

    • This Samsung T7 external SSD deal lasts less than a day

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      This Samsung T7 external SSD deal lasts less than a day by Sayan Sen Recently we had covered some nice deals of internal NVMe SSDs which include the 4TB TeamGroup G50 for only $400, the WD_BLACK SN7100 2TB for just $243, as well as the Samsung 990 PRO 1TB for $370. If however you require an external SSD for portability and quick data transfers and have a budget of less than $200 the Samsung T7 1TB model is currently on a limited time deal at just $190, it's lowest price in nearly three months. The deal ends today so you better hurry if you need one (purchase link below). The T7 weighs in at just 72 grams meaning it should be fairly easy to carry around helping in the portability department. Via its USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface the T7 promises sequential read speeds of up to 1050 MB/s and writes of 1000 MB/s. It is also fairly robust with a drop protection of up to 2 meters, though bear in mind that this is not waterproof. For that you will have to choose the rugged T7 Shield. The technical specifications of the Samsung T7 1TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Model Code (1TB) MU-PC1T0T / MU-PC1T0H Interface USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) Dimensions (W × H × D) 85 × 57 × 8 mm Weight 72 g Sequential Read Speed Up to 1,050 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 1,000 MB/s Drop Resistance Up to 2 m (6.6 ft) Encryption AES 256-bit hardware encryption Operating Temperature 0°C to 60°C Non-Operating Temperature -40°C to 85°C Humidity 5% to 95% (non-condensing) Shock Resistance 1,500 G, duration 0.5 ms, 3-axis (non-operating) Vibration Resistance 20–2,000 Hz, 20 G (non-operating) Get it at the link below: Samsung T7 Portable SSD, 1TB External Solid State Drive, MU-PC1T0T/AM, Gray: $189.98 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

      I just wish they would put more love into Virtual Desktops. There is just so much more they could do.

      Sounds like you just skimmed over the review, I answer all those questions in it. Although I admit I did not test if DTS works over the headphones, when I get some time I will test this. My personal use case is more speaker-driven (I cover this in the review too).

      It actually does the same exact thing as yours, 7.1 virtual surround over headphones. From the product page: "Experience sound that surrounds you with 7.1 virtual surround, delivering a wider, more immersive soundstage for movies, games, and music." So both of them are two channel, with 7.1 virtual surround that only work in Headphones mode.
