Is Penumbra Overture worth buying? Where can I get it? - citizen_erased - 10-24-2008

I downloaded the demo version.
The graphics are really cool and I love first person games and I love scary games. My favourite game ever is Half-Life 2 and this game seems to be kinda familiar somehow. The mysteriousness and the amazing graphics. So be honest: is it worth buying?! How much is it usually, and where can I get it? I live in Fullerton, OC. Is there anywhere other than video game stores, that has this game? cause I don't wanna go into a video game store Tongue
Maybe Big Lots that's next door to me has it for cheap price? What do you think?

And also, if I buy the full version, is there any cheat(s) that'd prevent me from dying in the game? cause continuously dying in a game pisses me OFF.
Thanks a lot.

Do you want the boxed version or downloadable version?

What is the difference?
I prefer buying things in person, cause I don't like to give out my credit card #.

Boxed have translations. Downloadable is easier to get. Wink

Price is from 20€/$ - 40€/$...

You'll have a hard time finding Overture in stores I'm afraid. Amazon.com (newegg might have it too) should have Overture. You'll need to give your credit card number but unless you don't think your connection is secure, theres no concern in doing so.

Of course! If not you are a fool!

You can also do the 'bill me later' option at Amazon.com and you'll get a bill in the mail instead of them charging your credit card.
