Deep Silver Publisher Weekend on Steam, no X games on sale but you can pick up the excellent Saints Row 4 with all it's DLC for peanuts, if you have never played any of the Saint game, they play like the GTA games and 4 I think is the best one as its a complete micky take of the matrix films.

Yup I'm eyeing a few, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided 85 percent off, Skyrim Special Edition 50 percent off and RUINER with 60 percent off.
Oh and X4 is in the sale with 25 percent off, but I don't know, never got on with any off the X games.

Me neither but to be honest I never really tried the empire building part so this explains that.

I bought Deus Ex Mankind Divided a good while ago and could never get it to run. I think there is an issue with it if you have an AMD card or processor in your PC, so beware!

Cheers Geraldine, I will have a look through the Steam forums and see what they are saying as I have a AMD processor.

Since I have a Rysen and a Vega card, I will give it a try, even though it's a whooping 54 GB download

Yeah, DX MD is a big download, shame it just goes to a blank screen on startup on my PC. If any of you do get it, download it as soon as you can and try to run it. If it works, great, but if not, get an immediate refund because Square Enix isn't interested in fixing it. I stupidly waited too long for a patch that never came so am stuck with it. Strange thing, the previous game, Human Revolution, runs totally fine on my system. So they must have added something to the game's engine between the two games.

Both Human Revolution & Mankind Divided seem to work. Didn't got far after the introductory movie, but it seems that it works fine!! Steam version, on a Ryzen 1700X, 16GB, and a Vega 56, all settings maxed at 1080p!!

Have had a few problems with triple A games not working over the years, Fallout 3 and Xcom spring to mind. and always annoying when the big devs/publishers acknowledge the problem but don't think it worth fixing.
It's the main reason I only buy these triple A game occasionally on the PC, Anyhow I thought I would take a punt and Steam say it will take 1 day and 6 hours to download...……………………..Damn it I'm buying the console version.
