The Last Stand? Yes, Please.

October 15, 2009 by Nat 5 Comments

The Last Stand update for Dawn of War II was released yesterday…and it is a breath of fresh air. After three hours of play, I claim it to be gaming goodness. FREE gaming goodness. Let me know if you have the game in the comments and we can survive a few rounds. Relic has really taken this game to a new level. Mixing Call of Duty with DoW II was an excellent idea. It’s a shame some people missed this, but Steam was selling the game half-off yesterday Holy frick. I just checked. They’ve extended it until Monday. $20 (TWENTY!) for this amazing game.

    My copy of DoWII was updated when I started up Steam. I’m up for a game.

    Wow, I have to seriously consider if I want to pick this up or not now that it is only $20…hrm…choices …choices…

    Makes it especially difficult because the demo was fun and more than one person I know has it(add to that the fact that I’ve played/still own the table top game figures).

    It’s actually two games in one (now three with Last Stand).

    The multiplayer and single player are totally different. Similar, but different. You just have to try it to see what I mean.

    All of it can be done co-op, which is a plus in my book.

    By the time I have a computer that will run this well, it’ll be $5 🙂

    Man, once you reach a certain level of play, this game mode just opens up. This is quite possibly some of the most fun I’ve ever had playing co-op.

    I’m amazed at how simplistic it is, but the level(s) of strategy are amazing. It’s a shame though because I think most players will just rush and do their own thing.

    When you get a three man team that compliments well…yeah, good times. This could be a stand alone game mode that I would pay $15 for.
