Anybody think this is worthwhile? I hate to be the guy that asks the question who's answer is a big yes to at least some people around here. However, I really have remained completely ignorant of the THQ games in this pack but the price, 75 clams, is attractive. I'll probably do some more digging and decide whether or not to pick this up.

I'm not so sure about the RTS stuff though, it's been ages since I did that. I do like the Warhammer 40K IP, but the last time I went through a game in that it was the tactical turn based which I liked a lot. Maybe I'm just getting too old. Damn kids with their fast games and flashy graphics.

All those RTS's are very solid. Company of Heroes is awesome. It'd help if you'd post of link of the pack so people know what games are on it. Warhammer games are great too. Even Full Spectrum Warrior is great too. Titan Quest is very fun as well and STALKER is awesome. Juiced well who cares about that one but this pack is worth every penny. Too bad I don't have the extra cash to pick this up.

Yeah, that's how I feel about some of the other packs I have seen. The Valve and ID packs for example are no longer appealing because I own most of the games. I usually wait until games are on sale from Steam or GOG before I buy them. I recently picked up some of the Pro Pinball games off of GOG when they were on sale. Man, I've put in 16 hours on one table with no signs of being bored with it, not bad for $4.
 
Yeah, its a good deal for someone who is new to PC gaming or hasnt owned any of those titles before.
 
I already have most of them, so no, its not a good deal for me.

What I really want is for Dawn of War 1 to be remade with all the add-ons into one huge game. You select your campaign from the home screen but other than that everything is all in once place and easily accessable.
I have the core game and all expansions. While its blast to play I hate having to bounce around in between different games to play what I wanna play. Also, you should be able to select different rule sets. In later games they drastically change the cost of many units and buildings and also change the tech tree and how many of each type of unit you can have. Its annoying. I'd like to be able to select from different styles when starting a new campaign or skirmish game.
You could do that with TA:Kingdoms if you got the expansion. On the map select screen their was a button to switch to Crusades rules and that changed a lot of the units stats around, for a different style of gameplay.
 
Dawn of War II
Company of Heroes
Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts
Frontlines: Fuel of War
Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
Titan Quest
Titan Quest - Immortal Throne
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Dark Crusade
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Gold Edition
Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War - Soulstorm
Full Spectrum Warrior* and
Full Spectrum Warrior: Ten Hammers*
 
It's a pretty good deal if you were planning on buying Dawn of War II. If not, then I'd recommend just picking up Company of Heroes and Dawn of War Gold separately. The rest of those games (Titan Quest, Dawn of War add-ons, FSW) are very skippable.
 
I liked Titan Quest + Immortal Throne Expansion, and Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War.

They're not "Blizzard-awesome", but they're still fun to play.

I'm Tempted to buy because of the other titles.
