I was about to get it on general principle, when I remembered that I don't actually want to play this game :)

Several people reviewed it favourably, though. If you enjoy Tower Defence games, it should be well worth getting.

edit: You can also grab the (http://www.iimusic.net/plus/2008/11/immortal-defense) soundtrack online, so I figure if I like that, I'll get the game after all.

I thoroughly recommend picking this up, although be aware that it's the kind of game where you get out of it what you put in -- there are very few screens that you can't 'solve' in really trivial ways, so it's really up to you to have fun with the mechanics. You shouldn't pass it up, though.

As with World of Goo, I plan to buy copies for friends as well. (Although unlike WoG it looks like it's Windows only, which restricts that plan somewhat...)

So, I am looking to trade a brand-new copy of Call of Duty: World at War (PC-DVD). I prefer not to sell it, I think a trade would work better for everyone. A Steam gifting is fine, and I'll send it to you first and allow you to let me know you got it and are happy before you do your end, if you are paranoid of getting ripped off. It, of course, has an unused cd-key for multi-player. I am very flexible here. The game itself, rather than how much it costs, is more important to me. I have several titles I am looking for atm.

I tried to install it ONCE, and found out that it won't work AT ALL on my onboard sound. It, and COD 4: MW require setting it to 24-bit. No way, that I know of, to do that on XP, and I sure as heck am not going to install my copy of Vista for one game.

Anyone interested PM me.
