Some info on wheather or not to get buy the extra stuff; if one has they can host maps they can host and everyone can join, also extra weapons aren't useful until you are quite high level.

Castle Doctrine, you set up traps and then go try to rob others houses

When I first saw this, I thought "Ugh... not another of these mediocre PvP games that just have players raiding each other constantly for leaderboard standings." Looks like I was quite wrong and it could be pretty interesting.

Castle Doctrine appeals to me with the rabid guard dogs, but the switch systems that can be set up - unless by-passable need to be switched in repetative patterns - which seems too annoying:

Having said that, this guy is very experienced at the high end - but like Counter Strike, once everyone gets there the game play is less approachable.
It is only $8 currently 1/2 price due to Alpha, which is very decent.

Payday looks like a nice break from Left 4 Dead 2, I will wait until it comes up on Steam Sale.
Which hopefully will be soon as Payday 2 is being released.
