If anyone doesn't already have it, Torchlight II is cheap on Steam right now.

Most of Paradox stuff is between 50-85% off on Steam.

With that sale, my game is down to 1.99. :D

edit: And oddly enough, people are still reviewing it on Steam. :hmm:

That bad, huh?  I picked up Rome I, and I am thinking about Napoleon and Empire.  I also grabbed the rest of the clan packs for Shogun II.

the emperor edition is actually quite good. No Rome I /Mediƫval II but then again nothing is.

I find it just more of the same.  The battles go a bit quicker, the Civil War mechanism sucks, strategy game is same as it ever was, the graphics are great but overall it's nothing we haven't seen before.

RTW II is probably worth getting cheap for the mods that will come out, but there's no reason to pull the trigger now.  It will be cheap again by the time you need it.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Pass.

2 and Brotherhood are well worth it.  1's a little simplistic, but fun, and (IMO) the later ones overcomplicated the gameplay.  (Not including 5 in this, since I haven't gotten a chance to try it yet- didn't want to pick it up until I made some headway through 4, which I haven't turned on in months)

I thought AC1 was pretty meh and uninvolving, but I loved AC2 - will pick up Brotherhood now, thanks for the headsup.

5? If you are talking Unity (or Rogue) - that hasn't been released yet. :unsure:

1 was lame. 2 and Brotherhood pretty good (Brotherhood is probably my favorite). 3 and 4 are also pretty fun if you like those settings (colonial america and pirates respectively). 

Revelations is the one I'd skip (in Instanbul) as that one added an unnecessary bomb making thinking. I never bothered to finish it.

Brotherhood's definitely worth it.  It's not so much a sequel as a companion to 2, and it does clean up a *lot* of the ends left dangling at the end of 2.
