I bought AudioSurf for $2.50 I keep eying the LFD2 deal but I'm just not sure...

edit: Anyone else getting REALLY slow downloads? My god...35KB/s

Audiosurf is great. I have had it for over a year and my wife and I still both play it now and again.....that is a great deal for $2.50.

I seem to be averaging the same with Red Faction righ now. It's between 30KB/s and 50KB/s.

However I am not really in a rush right now to get the game I just purchase.

Yeah I played the demo when it first came out, and my girlfriend played it after I bought it a few times and she absolutely loves it!

Are there any good 3rd person perspective games on there ?
I really don't like 1st perspective where you are always behind the gun and you barely get to see your guy that you are using.

 

[james.wired]

Yeah there are plenty, just depends on what type of game you like to play.

Pretty much I like anything from modern to sci-fi I am looking at storm rise and highly considering getting it tonight.
One question though, if I buy it will they at least send me a DVD for backup purposes ?
