Dreamfall bundled with Longest Journey, at retail and Steam
Never had a chance to check out adventure gaming classic The Longest Journey or its sequel, Dreamfall? Want to get in before that episodic Dreamfall content starts? Think Ragnar Tørnquist is awesome? If you answered yes to any of those questions, then Aspyr wants you to know about Dreamfall Game of the Year Edition, available at retail for $29.99 this May. What that gets you: the original The Longest Journey, Dreamfall: The Longest Journey and the MTV award-nominated original soundtrack for Dreamfall: The Longest Journey." Not a bad deal.Interested in the bundle, but have an unhealthy aversion to leaving the house? Well, this is your week. Valve recently announced the adventure titles are available now as a bundle on their Steam distribution service for $34.95, and the previously unavailable The Longest Journey is available alone for $9.95. Interested? Enjoy 20% off both titles all this week (that's cheaper than the boxed version)!
Aspyr moves Mac owners into The Gamerhood
Aspyr has announced plans to launch a new game downloading service intended specifically for Mac gamers. Dubbed The Gamerhood, the application will enable gamers to purchase and download full Mac titles directly to their spinning platters, neatly avoiding disc-based media and inept cashiers in the process. Some of the promised features of the service include the automagic checking of system requirements, easy access to game patches and effortless organization of your personal catalogue.The service launches in Fall 2006, giving Aspyr plenty of time to prep that elusive, purely hypothetical Mac version of Dreamfall: The Longest Journey and start up the online catalogue with a bang. If The Gamerhood can strike a balance between content and convenience, Mac gamers may find it awfully difficult to resist. If not, endless "gamer ghetto" jokes are sure to ensue (and they will all be terrible).[Via TUAW]
