In Topic: Feral Sale on the Mac Game Store

Yeah, I think they would have gotten a bigger sale by letting people buy it right away. It is already a steal!
People would have bought it on anticipations of what is to come, but not now.. But then again, its a limited edition sale, so maybe they only have 100 of them ready.

In Topic: What games are people playing these days!?

Finished Quake 4 today. Can't recall finishing a AAA game so fast before - Must have been because I was FPS trained after finishing Doom 3. 
Anyway.. Nice game, 4/5 I think. Shooter part was excellent, as all ID games are (Even though Raven Software developed it). Fast shooting weapons, that deal a good amount of damage is what I want!
Level design was nice, better than Doom 3. You actually felt that you were in specific sites, since you had to go somewhere and then backtrack. And even though you had to fight your way from A to B and it felt like hours, the distance from B to A was never very long, which I really liked. And good, it felt so nice to have a flash light, and not having to worry about something jumping at you from random corners all the time! But man, the difficulty really increased half way through the game, and late game I had a lot of save/reload sequences. I mean come on, put you in a medium sized locked room with 4 small healing items and drop holes in the sides, and then send 2 Judges at you. Then, 2 Gladiators. Well, time for 2 Icarus's. Done right? No, here is 2 Arachnids for you! The end fight was pretty easy though. But overall, interesting and nice dog fights.
I liked how there were plenty of useful NPC's to help you out with mobile healing and damage! Protect them, and they do a good job. Don't protect them and they die - very nice! It also made the game much more alive in my opinion.
The only place it felt a bit of a drag on the story, was when you had to battle through all three towers. Will be some time before I play the game again though, I think I've satisfied my mindless FPS hunger for now..
