Not everything. They dont have Freelancer.


BUT, they got the enhanced versions of AOE 2, AOM, and RON. That should be more than enough for you guys.

Also the remake of Fable is on sale, but not out until mid September.

Looks like anything I want I already have. I wonder if they couldn't get Freelancer working? I know I had a hell of a time last time I tried to get it working on... Vista I think.

I had RoN running on Windows 7 not too long ago, so I see no need to rebuy the remastered version. Doesn't look like they've done too much to it based on the screen shots. I see that Dust: An Elysian Tail is only $3. Think I'll grab that.

It's also worth noting that most of the Pinball FX2 tables/packs are 75% off, even though only a few show up in the list from that link.

Couldnt find my Rise of Nations disk, and had been wanting to play it, so I picked up the enhanced edition for 10 bucks. Having a lot of fun with it. Wish there were more multiplayer games and custom maps though, but at least there is multiplayer.

Man those were the days, when Ensemble studios was pumping out those great RTS games.

the units are rendered in 3D and move much smoother. Its got some enhancements to online play. Native widescreen.

Nothing phenomenal. But for those who've lost their discs or dont know what all the fuss is about, its a good deal.

If anyone hasn't checked out FX2, it's pretty much the best pinball game I've seen, and the base game with one table is free. Though I get tired of pinball on the PC pretty soon.
