So as most of you should know, steam is having there "Exploration Sale". I want to pick up a game for under $10. I was looking at the Portal bundle or Star wars Battlefront II. Does anyone have a preferred preference on these games? I am also open to suggestions on other games. Thanks in advance :D

Star wars battlefront 2 is a fun nostalgia stroking experience. There are also a ton of total conversion mods that make it pretty damn fun, even today.

 

Portal however, if you haven't played it is a fun game too, adds more challenge that if you like puzzles, may really enjoy.

 

Either way, both games would give you about 10hrs of play time each.

Portal, as I'm sure you can tell from my profile, is F**KING AWESOME imo.

I think everyone should play Dishonored, so that would be the one I recommend.

 

The Portal games are also must plays so you should get that, like you mentioned.

Unless you're a diehard Star Wars fan, pick up the Portal Bundle. Portal is one of those games you just have to play.

I actually couldn't underclock my 5 year old GPU to make it as slow as a next-gen console.
