Your next/last game purchase?

As the title says, what are you plans for buying games?

Personally i will be getting myself my own copy of Amnesia and Eschalon Book 2 on the next payday.

Maybe Half-Life 2 - Episode 3 (AKA HL3) and Portal 2 <- My favourite not native (hope will be once) games

I could never get into Half Life 2, i have it and episode one on Steam i think, never got what the big deal was?

Dude are you joking?
Half-life is the best thing i've done played in my computer. The story (most important), gameplay, GMan, environment, whole game is fucking awesome. I even prefer this game, over gothic 1 and 2.
I honestly suggest, to start playing from first HL (with its all series, opposing force, blue shift, etc) and not only play game, feel the game!

I played the original half life....couldn't get into that much either, weird.

Spent many a day on counterstrike, team fortress etc though.

I'm probably gonna get hero's of Newerth. I was in the Beta and really enjoyed it.

I don't really know, I've gotten a liking for indie games and when I see an indie developer who supports Linux I tend to buy it on sight. That being said I am buying my way through gog.com, so I know that I will be buying the Unreal games I am lacking and Fallout Tactics.

I never liked HL1, it's been ages since I played it (about 10 years or so...), but I always preferred Doom2 ;)

Today is the last day of the Wupra buy 2 get 1 for free "deal" : [url="http://linuxgamingnews.org/2010/08/22/wupra-buy-two-games-get-third-for-free/"]http://linuxgamingnews.org/2010/08/22/w ... -for-free/[/url]
I would probably get a few games and hope they are in English (I never fully understand, even after those interviews I've made with him what games are in English ;) ).

I've already bought Book2 and pre ordered Amnesia long time ago, also I want to buy "One Unit Whole Blood" from GOG, I hear it runs on DOSBOX ;)
Other then that, I never plan what games I buy, a new game could come out tomorrow and I can buy it that same day.

This prevented me from ordering games from Wupra, I has never sure if the game was English, and I didn't see any options to request a specific language.

Re: Your next planned game purchase?

Each game has the language listed on it's page, i don't see what the problem is with that?
