STEAM Weekend Dead - Only $5
I myself went ahead and just purchased it as well. I always meant to get around to trying this out since I was always really intrigued by the premise, so now that I have a computer which can run it really nicely and a bargain price to go with the game, I can't say no to this.
I actually pirated this game to see how it would run, played it for 5 mins, but the frameraste was far too low for me to justify it at £40 but $5 after a video card upgrade, Jesus I love Steam, purchase!
I thought this was incredibly negative at first, not ragging on the typo on "deal" either, I seriously thought the "dead" was some kind of crazy shit that was happening on steam over the weekend and was about to flip out >.< Anyway ya I saw this deal, its a amazing damn steal for this game.
when i was playing it i put on darker nights, more realistic ai, better headlights.
Those mods alone made the atmosphere incredible.
But there are some incredible mods with tons of content.
I would recommend adding some slighter mods first as not to deviate to much from the intended game, then on the second playthrough add one of the bigger ones. The ABC mod, oblivion lost etc.

Before I spring for this great deal, does anyone know how good of a video card it requires? I have an NVIDIA Geforce 7150M, for reference.

I picked this up last night, but have yet to play it. I was waiting to buy it, so why not buy it when it's this cheap? I love Steam Weekend Deals.

It makes everyone come check steam every weekend to see the deal...and maybe people may browse and pick something else up at the same time.
