theweaselkingPayday is on sale again ($5 each, or four copies for $15), to celebrate their first DLC release. $5 for this four-player co-op heist shooter, complete with Left 4 Dead crossover level (no, really). Two things to remember: this game is HARD (and it really rewards thinking before you shoot and teamwork, and penalises lone-wolfing), but games are short so losing (or winning!) doesn't take too long, and this game really suffers single-player. You can play alone, but it's most fun re-enacting the climax of Heat with three friends.
(Also, Best DLC Feature Ever: As long as your host has the DLC, all players can access it even if they don't own it themselves. They can't select the new skill tree and they can't start the DLC missions on their own, but they can totally join DLC games and play. Speaking of which, I bought the DLC, who's up for two new heists - one of which can, if you keep the hostages under control, apparently be finished without ever firing a shot or triggering an alarm?)
