I like the frequent Steam bargains

Is COD4 worth going for? I've for MW2 and really enjoy that, so for only a tenner I'm tempted.

edit: Oops too late for me, I see that was last weekends deal!

CoD4, in my opinion, is easily the best online CoD of the series.

If it comes up again cheapo my advice would be to grabbit

Hmm, that Codemasters pack, I already have TOCA 3 & GRID on PC and FUEL on Xbox but Dirt 1 & 2 & FUEL for PC are worth £12.50.

My version of TOCA 3 only runs on Win XP though and I note that Dirt 1 has XP as recommended OS on the Steam site.

Has anybody run TOCA 3 and/or DIRT 1 on Vista or Win 7?

I think i tried dirt 1 on my win7 64bit, But not 100% sure, Its not installed at the mo.

Cant see it being an issue though to be honest.


EDIT: Hmm, saying that on the steam page for Dirt it says this...

Notice: Does not support Windows 7

:/


EDIT 2: Seems running the game in XP SP2 compatability mode works.

EDIT 3: Looks like steam never patched their version, but the retail got the copy protection removed (which isn't win 7 compatible).

Saying this, Dirt 2 is worth the 12.50 all day!

Yeah sorry i've just added the date to the OP ro avoid confusion.

As Flops said, if its on a deal again, go for it!

Ackerlee, I was more interested in whether the Steam version of TOCA Race Driver 3 runs in Win 7 than Dirt 1.

I think that one is possibly my favourite racing game but my hard copy of the game won't run in Win 7 at all.
