Unfortunately I haven't seen it on sale since it's release. Which is kind of weird, because Best Buy or Circuit City usually always have new titles on sale within the first few weeks of release. Its the first game I've paid full price for in a long time. But I must say it is worth it. Gogamer.com has it for 44.90 but after shipping, it's still $50.

Thanks for letting me know. I was just getting ready to start my gaming session for the night. Have you installed it yet? Any noticeable changes?

I played for about two hours last night (I have to try to catch up with Mrs.TQ's level 28 character) and it was pretty transparent. In other words, I didn't notice anything extreme. No crashes, game ran about the same.
I'm finally finding my way around Egypt. Odd, but Egypt seems less focused than Greece was and I tend to wander around a bit directionless. Mrs. TQ found that to be true, as well.

It's looks like Gogamer.com has Titan Quest as part of it 48hr madness sale. It's now $34.90 here.

Before the patch I had like 20 crashes a day. After the patch the games runs without the choppienes and only crashed while using a merchant. Putting it in windows 2000 compat. mode seems to have solved that. After playing for 2 1/2 hours it did freeze up on me again but as far as I can see it that is a major improvement.

I think I'm now up to level 24 or something.

Mrs. TQ just stuck her head in my home studio and said: "You can tell your buddies that I'm level 29."

...I can hear the screams of dying monsters coming from the next room...

Up to level 29 1/2 now.... went into babylon a while ago.... Good too because Egypt became a bit boring....

The only thing I'm missing in this game is a little puzzle from time to time...

But Ironlore deserves a lot of credit for this game because it has me hooked from day one!

Just finished the game... I wanted it to keep on going but I guess all good things have to come to an end. Now Epic is unlocked. I'll backup my character en play again in a while... Amazing game this... A nice warmup for NWN 2!!

WOW, already huh? I'm at level 18 now, can't remember what location off hand. But I just sold my old PC parts and still waiting on my new CPU. Plus, I go on vacation tomorrow, so I won't get another chance to play until I come back and build my new system. I already miss the clicking action.

Hehehe... yeah... I guess I had too much time to play... Don't worry, you'll have enough clicking action ahead of you!

I guess now it is time to play prey!

I think SubZero got his after I did and hes done already. There is a gameplay timer in the character screen, I'll have to see what mine says. Last time I remember checking it was at 18hrs I believe.

It took me quite a long time... "Un"fortunately I have a lot of time in the afternoons and evenings lately so I've been playing my socks off..

Don't let the speed in which some of us finished it turn you down.. I guess this game gives you about 40-60 hours of playing if you play it normal and do all the side quests (get killed like me from time to time).

If you finish the normal level, epic gets unlocked... Basically starts all over again but with tougher enemies and nicer bounties (obviously since you are level 30+)..

I'll save Epic for when I finish Prey...
