Steam Winter Sale: Damage Report

I played and reviewed every Command & Conquer game a few years ago, but when I saw this Remastered Collection on sale for under £2, how could I not pick it up? I also picked up State of Decay 2 for under £2. I enjoyed the first game quite a bit, reviewing it way back in 2013, but it felt like a game that would serve as a strong foundation to a more refined sequel. I guess it’s finally time to find out.

Frostpunk 2 was a game I wanted to get at release, but I just didn’t have the time to play it. I’m a big fan of the original but I was always concerned about how they’d handle a sequel. From what I’ve seen, I think I might like the direction Frostpunk 2 takes because I certainly didn’t want just more of the same.

I was a little on the fence about Ghost of Tsushima because I got rather sick of open world map clutter games years ago, but I’ve heard such positive things about this one and it’s a setting I like so it’s worth giving a go.

And finally we have the Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection which I’d have happily bought just for Marvel vs Capcom 2 – one of my favourite fighting games – but it also includes some other games I’ve played and loved in the past like Children of the Atom and Marvel Super Heroes. It also includes X-Men vs Street Fighter which is a game I really wanted to play back in the day but never had the chance to. I’m excited to get stuck into this one.

Other games I picked up though not on Steam were SIFU, Ghostrunner 2 and Dredge which I claimed for free on Epic. I also got Fire Emblem: Three Houses for the Switch – and I’ll be talking about the original Fire Emblem here soon.
