I recommend that you pop over to Steam and spend £4 to get a fantastic game while it's 2/3 off!

I just spent half an hour playing the entry level of Mark Of The Ninja, and it was great fun. Very nice "hiding in the shadows" gameplay, very fluid, lovely graphics, and seamlessly put together. Frankly, you can't spend £4 on anything better today!

Does it need a joypad? Last few games like that I've bought on Steam I've never been able to play because they're impossible with the keyboard.

It's designed to be played with AWSD and the mouse for aiming at things with darts/grappling hook.

It gets more awesome as it goes on. My favourite thing was terrifying guards by leaving dead bodies lying around. I AM THE NIGHT

I've been hiding all the bodies so far, to prevent them spotting me!

They must fear the darkness.

Looks fun!

I may have a punt... unfortunately, my games PC has a thing of freezing in games it doesn't like -- at least one game I've bought does that :/

Okay, this is ace. (And doesn't make my PC crash!)

I really like the style of the graphics, and the gameplay feels very smooth and easy. I like the way they highlight how to use things -- the little mouse icon that appears on spots to grapple, or on guards.

Yeah, it all flows really well - polished to perfection!

Frankly, you can't spend £4 on anything better today!

I dunno, I bought cream and eggs and made chocolate mousse today...

If the mousse didn't leap out of the darkness and slaughter a security guard, before hiding their body in a dumpster and then vanishing into the air vents, then I'm going to declare victory!

Thanks dude, like game suggestions :)
