Man I went into Call of Juarez Gunslinger with zero expectations and I'm really digging it. A whole lotta fun to be had there.

Yeah I did that when it was a PS+ freebie, it was surprisingly enjoyable. Very on-rails, but I enjoyed the storytelling format (even the part where you play for a bit, then
"die" and the narrator goes "that would have been dumb and suicidal so we didn't do that" and then you restart a new level
LOL).

The "duels" can die in a fire though. I get what they were going for, but it played like utter crap and it wasn't fun at all.

I own almost all of these games on PC except the two in the $15 tier, and I'm tempted to get it just for them and then redistribute the codes for everything else.

This is a fantastic deal.

They added Chaos Theory and Blood Dragon to the BTA tier.

Oh man - I could write a love letter to Chaos Theory's multiplayer. There's nothing like it out there. The newer Splinter Cell titles rewrote how the gameplay works, and it's never been the same since. Does this thing still work, and do people still play it?

People still complain about uplay?

In 2016?

Looks like a decent bundle. I'm in.

It took many years for people to accept Steam - uplay has the additional luck of being associated with Ubi - who grace us with all sorts of shit when dealing with their PC games. The lack of trust is not unfounded.

I thought the same thing when I bought the game last year from Amazon for cheap. Makes me sad that AC III and Black Flag run like ass. Black Flag is better but Rouge is a well optimized title on my old PC.

Lets see here black flag has effects that Assassins creed rogue doesn't have. And through Benchmarks you can see that Assasssins creed 3 always runs 10 fps higher than Rogue on comparable hardware

I just tried out AC Rogue -- I can't believe how well it runs on my ancient system. Looks pretty nice for an older AC game, too. Looking forward to seeing what else they add.

Yep, it's honestly shocking how AC3 and 4:Black Flag which are running on the same engine (IIRC) are badly optimized on PC while this is pretty damn crystal clear image quality and performance on the same PC. Just wow, whoever ported Rogue needs to be Ubisoft's PC port house for the Assassin's Creed franchise.

Almost pulled the trigger on Blood Dragon on the Steam sale, so I'm glad I waited to see if it was added! I have it on the 360, but I think it's going to be much nicer to experience on PC.

Surprised we got another Splinter Cell. I was expecting a Prince of Persia title to be added.

The $15 tier turned out great. I had not played FC3 or Blood Dragon, Chronicles, Rogue or Crew. It was a great start for my uplay account and now I have more games there than my Origin one.

Caved and bought the $15 bundle. I figured having uPlay keys wouldn't really matter since Steam keys would require uPlay anyways, and $15 for The Crew + everything else is honestly pretty fantastic.

This time the bundle is even worse. The Division is not worth $75 in any way. The Crew without any of the DLC is not worth $15, the complete editions go for a better price.

Since they real bundle it, can someone give me some insight on the BTA. I don't own any of the titles, so I'm a bit interested. Really, I guess its going to be Far Cry I need to be sold on. Otherwise, I'll just get the dollar tier.
