Just bought Tales of Valor for £5.
Would buy more, but i bought it all at the last crazy steam deal 2ish weeks ago, only to notice the prices are even less today...
Oh well, it is Christmas

I would play the original first, clear sky seems less atmospheric and a little dumbed down in my opinion; still a good game though.

Don't forget that you can speed-up your downloads by changing your 'Location' to 'Ireland' in the Steam Options.
It worked for me during the last set of sales! I think that because there is no download server in Ireland, it just picks the fastest one it can find instead. You can guarantee that the UK servers will be crawling like last time.
... and you can always put it back to UK afterwards if you want.
Just downloaded Braid, only 152MB!
Needless to say after having a quick shot, I'm glad I bought it after having some reservations over it's gameplay style. Now I'm going to have to walk to mates who's about a mile away to get my 360 pad so I can play Beyond Good and Evil, and it's about -2 out :/

BT only seems to want to give me 400KB/s max right now. Think that's my max.

Lucky you, I'm getting about 50kb/s on Virgin!

You can download it from GOG for £4.69, if that helps.

I think you can tag ?cc=gb on to the end of a steam url to get the price in uk.

Ive £5 to spend 
- so its a choice between...
COH - Tales of Valor.... i only really play MP so its cash for a handful of new units..... not wholly worth it, but i love the game and love having new units to test out
or
the game id love to get is GTA4. Now ive read a ton of spec issues with the game, but at the same time there is always another person contradicting that, so if anyone on here has played the game with a similar spec too: C2D P7450 2.13Ghz, 4GB DDR2 and a 9600M GT card which pinches 1GB of ram so its classed a 2.2Gb (this is a laptop).. performance, will it look like a console version? will it be choppy, I suppose I need 40Fps to be playable... can I get it.
Spec checks say my CPU is the only thing lacking and I assume that kills of this purchase for me.
