That's pretty cool, but the shipping costs as much as the freakin' game!

I know, but still, 3 games for 26 is still a pretty good deal...

Aliens vs. Predator
Giants: Citizen Kabuto
Sacrifice

Plus they all work under OS X.....9 bucks a game is better than I'd ever do in a retail store...

Just thought I'd share..

I'm glad you mentioned that, I was about to order it. I liked the Sin demo and would buy it in second if it were on OSX.

BTW, if anyone doesn't have Giants, it's a very fun game. The Fallout games are fun as well if you like a true RPG.

The OSX patch for SiN never worked that well. The animation stutters and the mouse control is flakey. There are so many better FPS games for OSX, that it's not worth the bother.

Thanks for the heads up, I picked up a few titles. Hard to pass up at four bucks each.

Fallout and Fallout 2 are two of the most acclaimed games on any platform.
