Apparently Ubisoft is running a week-long sale on Steam. Each day, a different Ubi title will be 50% off. Today's deal is Assassin's Creed PC for $10. This one looked intriguing, but I never got around to buying it. Anyone played it? Worth $10?

Yeah, I think it's worth $10. The poor story is made up for by the excellent graphics and good gameplay.

It's worth 10$ simply for the ability to kill innocent bystanders over & over & over.

I thought the gameplay was horrible on the Xbox, but maybe it's better on the PC. I've found that consoles suck. Or rather that I suck at console gaming.

Yup, I bought it back on Monday and I've been enjoying it. These daily Steam sales need to stop, though. At $15 each I've picked up the new Brothers in Arms game and Far Cry 2 now, and I actually dread the coming of the weekend deal...

All of them combined.

Meh, that'd be kind of stupid, and an easy pass.

WTF?! Far Cry 2 (today' sale, supposedly 50% off) is over 33 dollars over here, on Steam. Twice as expensive as in the States. They can go fuck themselves for all I care.

:console: Steam's European pricing does seem to be more than a little broken.

Europe has been singled out for higher prices.  I think everywhere else gets American prices by default.

The weekend deal is not bad 4 Games (Beyond Good & Evil, Far Cry, Dark Messiah & IL2:1946) for 9.99$

When I click on that it doesn't show M&M, only the other three.

This sucks.  Apparently Dark Messiah isn't authorized to be sold on Steam in any country in Asia, so it leaves that game out of the bundle.  But it's already been released here in boxed version.
