1$
Arma II
Take on Helicopters
Ufo: Afterlight
Alpha Prime
Arma: Gold Edition
Arma: Tactics

6$
Carrier Command: Gaea Mission
Arma II Operation Arrowhead
Arma II DayZ Mod

Suprised that ARMA Tactics went into bundle fodder in what, 4 months?
Propably too late to buy Arrowhead for DayZ but whatever, I'm not MP games fan.

I love how you have to pay $6 to get something which is free anyway.

It is presented that way to both, advertise the bundle with DayZ and to make it sure that newcomers don't miss that DayZ mod requires Arrowhead in addition to the base game.

Maybe it got easier installation? Like "click & download" or something.
And why there is Afterlight? It's cool game but srsly... where it come from?

These are steam codes, it adds DayZ mod to your steam library.
BiS accuired few smaller Czech studios, among them Afterlight devs.

Is Alpha Prime worth playing from the humble weekly? Except for Arma I and II and UFO, everything seems shit.

I've seen Deadly Premonition described as Twin Peaks meets Silent Hill meets The Sims, done hilariously over the top in such a way you cannot stop watching it. Is that accurate?

Yes.

There's just one issue with it - publisher-dictated combat. They demanded combat or GTFO, so a small-ish dev team had to rush-add a bunch of that. It's generic, and it's grindy, and the controls suck dicks for it.

However, it's a pretty batshit game, and the main cast does grow on you. They actually have decent backgrounds and archs as well. If you want, look up the LP by supergreatfriend at LP Archive, it's hours of awesome entertainment. I basically bought the PC version as a thanks for the fun I got out of following the LP. Some day, I'll play the game as well, myself. Some day... When my massive backlog clears up, and I've finished D: OS in single and co-op about seven times. And then all the other KS stuff. And things. Yeah. One day.

It is Twin Peaks done by anime loving retards who don't know how to design third-person shooters or films instead of the master filmmakers and writers and actors involved in the television program.

at least it's not as shitty as the combat in rule of rose... and there is also the issue of the pc port of dp crashing like hell and being a shitty port overall

So is Arma 1 and 2 worth $1? I heard it was buggy as hell five years after release.

Also, is it anything like the old Rainbow Six games?
