I decided to spring for a couple of games on Steam. Admittedly, at $10, Plants Vs Zombies wasn't to far to spring. And it's turned out to be a really solid game. You generate sun energy. You use that to buy plants with various offensive and defensive characteristics. The plants wipe out zombies. It's all pretty straightforward, but learning how to use the different plants to the fullest has been a fun challenge so far. I've finished the main game and am over halfway through the twenty mini-games offered. Then there's nineteen puzzles, and ten survival mode levels to try. Plus there something called the Zen Garden. So far it seems like a way to generate money to buy special cards. We'll see.
I also picked up Killing Floor. Call it a weakness, but when I start hearing lots of good things about a co-op FPS, I have to buy it. Those things can be very hard to find, and it's nice to be able to play in the early days when finding players is easy. I'm enjoying it so far. But a lot of groups seem to crumble when the hard to kill zombies show up, which is understandable as none of the weapons seem to have much real stopping power. We'll see.
