Never be afraid to do your best work and let the

world enjoy it.

Never let someone tell you not to try something because it's stupid.


Turn off the recommended settings.


Break your computer and learn to fix it.

First person shooters are meant to be played on PC

I have Dungeon Siege III on Xbox 360 and quite enjoy it. Some of the criticism is valid, camera angles are somewhat restrictive.

I prefer playing games on PC mostly, so I bought Dungeon Siege III for a fiver from Play.com to play on PC.

I'll probably get a fiver from a high street GAME store in part exchange so no probs.

Similarly, bought LA Noire for PC from Steam for £8.74 and will trade in Xbox 360 version. Much prefer PC though Xbox has it's merits, not least sitting on sofa playing games on big TV.

I ordered Dungeon Siege III from play.com for £4.99 after reading this thread on 7th January. It hasn't arrived so I checked my account details at play.com and it's shown as out of stock, awaiting supplies. When I ordered it it was shown as in stock, play.com didn't even bother to tell me.

This same thing happened with my last order from play.com, their service has gone right down the pan and I'm going to stop using them.I have cancelled the order for Dungeon Siege III, seems to me they were plainly lying about some of those 'sale' offers.

Also ordered twin Venom battery pack for Xbox 360 wireless controllers on same day from play.com, half price at £8 and that hasn't arrived yet. It was dispatched on the 9th January and delivery is quoted at 3 to 5 working days. Today is the 16th, we've had a weekend in between so I make that three working days so far so we're still in the time limit, we shall see what occurs.

In contrast, on the same day, the 7th, I ordered two cheap Xbox 360 games from Amazon and they arrived together in one package on the 11th, free delivery.

Aye, I should have realised. The Dungeon Siege III they offered for a fiver is still on sale there for £11.85 which makes me think the sale thing was just a scam.

Same thing is £9.90 at Amazon.
