All of those strategy games are well worth it. But I'd definitely grab Retribution over Chaos Rising.

Darksiders is $5. For those us who didn't preorder SM, how is it.

Darksiders is a mix between Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and God of War (mostly Zelda). I enjoyed it very much. It's not innovative at all, but a refreshing visit back to what makes Action-RPGs so much fun. Definitely worth $5.

I wasn't interested in Homefront either. I'll probably pick up the Dawn of War expansions, if you get Retribution can you play chaos in multi or would you need Chaos Rising specifically?

Also, I edited the link to go directly to the sale page seeing as how THQ doesn't have it all too visible.

You would need Retribution. Chaos Rising was when they were still using GFWL. Now no one plays that version anymore as most people have moved over to Retribution, which has all 6 races in there.

Aye, Retribution has "six" campaigns (technically is, but really it's the same maps retooled for each of the six races with new dialogue added in as appropriate), The Last Stand (RPG co-op survival mode; if you played WarCraft 3 custom maps, think of hero survival maps, 'cept way more refined), and ofc MP (1v1, 2v2, 3v3, FFA, and TFFA). Six races and pretty good balance for MP. Plenty of content for $15.

Vanilla DoW 2 and Chaos Rising are only useful for their respective campaigns these days. If you get and like Retribution, they're worth grabbing down the road.
