Basically ArmA2 Free is a Demo+ - an editor (it's a giant sandbox where you can create almost any kind of a mission you want and throwing together simple blufor vs. opfor battles takes a few minutes) plus MP with usermade missions.

Except online everyone plays with mods (mostly community-made islands and ACE) and OA. So unless you have bros that are willing to play AA2 Vanilla or AA2 Free with you - you are out of luck in finding MP. OA also can't be combined with AA2 Free.

Of course if you want good and varied SP - ArmA CWA aka OFP+OFP:Res is the best in the series. The gameplay is inferior to AA2 CO though but the Cold War Crisis campaign is teh best. For $1.50 it's a steal - completing both campaigns will take you 50 hours or more (CWC alone has 40 missions, Resistance ~20 and then there are ~20 single missions)

Also $30 for the whole series? P. sweet.

Weekend deals are 75% off Magicka and a $25 indie bundle with Meat Boy, Aquaria, Gish, Half Life 2 (okay, not indie), Bit Trip Runner, Braid, Machinarium, VVVVVV, and World of Goo.

Also $10 Bejeweled 3. I kinda want it.


Also just bought Battlefield 3. Need to stop buying games. Can't stop. WON'T STOP.

Need to turn my sickness into a business and make myself a youtube asshole like Cynicalhalibiscuit. I can talk and click around in menus for 20-30 minutes and rake in the money (?) and video cards.

Treading water, but at least it's warm
I want super meat boy and world of goo... and maybe bit trip runner. But I have all the other ones I want (VVVVV, Braid, Machinarium). If I hadn't gotten the humble indie bundle I would definitely get the full pack, but I don't know... Christmas sale is coming.

Tough choices friends.
