Shack PSA: Direct2Drive Anniversary Sale Sees 50 Games Slashed to $5

September 10, 2009 12:14 PM

To mark its 5th anniversary, digital distributor Direct2Drive is offering 50 games for only $5 apiece over the next five weeks. The first batch shows that these won't be 50 bargain titles, either: Civilization 4, Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 2, X-Com Complete Bundle and Dawn of War GOTY are just a few of the games that can be had for a Lincoln.

The second stage will be devoted to action games, with RPG/MMOs, indie games, and war games making up the following weekly themes.

That makes me really consider signing up at that site. To those who have used it - do you need to download a client? And are there download limits?

  No client needed, no download limits either as far as I know. I don't have much experience there though, just one game (RA3).

    You are correct, there is no client need to run the games. There is no limit on bandwidth its your ISP that is the limit in this case (real nice btw) I ripped down Mini Ninjas yesterday in less than 2 hours ** btw total recommend Mini Ninjas amazing game **
    
    You do however down load a down loader but it is very useful, it has a pause button so you do not loose your progress and can even shut down your comp and continue the next day.
    
    They rock I have 50+ games from them no problems.
