GhostwriterDoF: I was able to fly better with my keyboard than when using the Joystick in IL-2,
but I think that is because all the hours I logged in the Battlefield games... :/

skeletonbow: You must have had one of those Radio Shack type joysticks then. :) The type that makes you want to kick a baby. :)
I have one of these, which worked fine, except I still needed to use the keyboard a little... Logitech Extreme 3D Pro

I can even fly helicopters in Battlefield Vietnam... which no Joystick can help you there. ;)

yyahoo: To be clear, the price paid for Lucas was $4 billion dollars. I referenced $8 billion since you spoke of bringing in more than double of the investment price.

It's very difficult to get a grasp on how much money is earned on a regular basis from existing Lucas products. What I think we can say with confidence is that you're not going to make up a $4 billion cost without new product and a couple movies are not going to earn you $4 billion dollars alone and even then there's significant additional cost to produce new product, especially a movie. If Disney has earned back the $4 billion alone in 5 years, I'd be surprised, let alone actually making a profit on the investment.

apehater: googled a little bit and i think you're right. although its hard to believe for me, that companies nowdays doing investements without expecting profit anytime soon.
Microsoft also bought Minecraft (actually the whole company - Mojang - but you know what I mean) for $2,5 billion dollars.

Speaking of which: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Not TellTale!!!!!!!!!

The Banner Saga got lapped three times already, hopefully it's followed by a more energetic competitor.

The_Blog: Ok I got about 5-6 new gift keys at the moment. I'll try to wait a bit maybe grab some more keys and then I think I'll gift them away again. Maybe with a riddle this time? Don't know.
Sounds good! The more creative the giveaways, the more fun :) I usually do trivia for slow moments in sales and encourage sharing stories for other giveaways. Lots of people on these forums like creative, artistic and thoughtful giveaways :)

Yup, to be perfectly honest, the Lucas purchase seems like a fantastic deal in comparison.

I also have 2 gift codes here but I will ask about them later. Now I have to watch the sale with eagle eyes to not miss "Vangers" or "return To Mysterious Island" - I'm also not sure if I might pick up "Monkey Island", too.

Hey, The_Blog does Paypal work again for you?

nox no doubt :p
North America is now, mostly, awake. Hopefully this will help to speed some of these games along a bit.
