game of the year edition is on sale for 4.99 anyone own this game?

Yes, it's a fun game. It's a mix of third-person shooter and tower defense-like gameplay. Definitely worth $5.

Pretty sure quite a few people here do (we're all addicts to Steam sales ), and I found the game to be fun. I haven't played it much since I did the Steam Christmas achievement, but I did enjoy using the crossbow and trying to get head shots. It reminded me a lot of my old Quake III Arena days with the railgun.

Agreed.
It's on my backlog of games to play but it's totally worth the price of admission!

 

[pontifex]

yes, very fun (and funny)

 

[Dankk]

Absolutely worth it.

 

[KaOTiK]

I enjoyed it a ton. I found the gameplay to be very good and I liked the dialog quite a bit as well.

 

[Phynaz]

No brainer for five bucks.

 

[KeithTalent]

I haven't played it in a few weeks, but it is indeed pretty damn fun.

YES!

I have the game+DLC. $15 is very good value already and $4.99 is an absolute steal.

 

[Gibsons]

Fun game.

and funny too

I bought this game but haven't installed it yet (playing SSD shuffle) how does it compare to Dungeon Defenders? I loved that game for a while but I stopped playing it a few months ago and haven't missed it one bit.

 

[sour07]

thanks guys I went ahead and bought it.

 

[AyashiKaibutsu]

I bought it today too. That it had DLC was holding me back, but it seems all that will be out is out so I went for it.

 

[greenhawk]

Its fun and frustrating. After the first half of Nightmare mode.

 

[PowerYoga]

I like it, it's pretty fun. But it's not something I'd pay full price for.

I love orcs, they must survive for the sake of gaming world!

oh you talking about a game title ... sorry no opin on that.

Well worth $5 IMO, I got more hours out of that than lots of way more expensive games just from having beers while trying to build weird rube goldberg trap setups.

I thought the DLC was worth it too, at least the Alchemist's Pack thing. It's super useful on just about every map I tried.

I'll usually toss the grenade-like objects into the path before they come and then switch back to the ranged weapon. It seems to work well.

Yeah. One thing I didn't figure out for the longest time, was that you can trigger the grenade/acid bomb with spacebar, or whatever the alternate attack thing is. I used to think the only way to explode it was to shoot it with the crossbow. It made the acid bomb MUCH more useful when I realized I could trigger it exactly when I wanted to, instead of relying on line of sight with the crossbow.

very fun and enjoyable to play; at that price i would say go for it without thinking!
