skeletonbow: Sorry man, it is soooo gone. :) There's some extra basmati rice left over though. :) I've got Korma, Balti, and Vindaloo in the cupboard for another day if you're near the hub of the Great Lakes. :)

Lemon_Curry: Sweet, thanks for the offer man. Let me just get my WW warmed up and I'll be there in a jiffy!
LOL, oh man... you have no idea how loud that just made me laugh.... totally unexpected. LOL
My neighbours almost certainly heard that. Feck... hilarious. :)

zenwan: Thank you! I saw the post after yours first, and answered that. I haven't downloaded any of the ones I wanted to trade, not even a manual or two, so I'll ask Support very nicely on bended knee. :-)
Keep in mind that they have weekend too and that there will certainly be a sizable ticket queue waiting for them on Monday. Keep patient.

opeter2: I've got one gift code for you all, who loves older adventure games.
THE LABYRINTH OF TIME

But first you must answer me a question:

What was the name/title of an 80s live action TV series, that had an evil, one eyed guy that enslaved the world with an army, that was commanded by an shinning armored flying robot ? Only a group of hi-tech guerilla soldiers could fight them.
Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future?

I've suspected that the popular games list might occasionally have a few titles "salted" near the top from time to time, but that's just rampant speculation with no remote way of measuring. :)

zenwan: True! :-D

I was pointed in the direction of the trading thread, so I planned to try my luck there. I was so cross about losing Nox the first time (it happened twice, in much the same way) that I bought Clive Barker's Undying in a fit of pique, even though I'm not at all into horror, so I thought I'd try trading that first.
I'm new to these forums, so it's taking me time to find my way around. I haven't yet figured out how to gift a game if I didn't buy it to gift it in the first place. I'm sure someone there will tell me.
Editing to enlarge on my Nox misfortune... (noxfortune?)

It's semantics I bet, the popular could be "popular this week" or "Popular this month" etc, just depends on what needs to sell ;-)

Geralt_of_Rivia: And I think praise should be given where praise is due. Sadly there are people who just take and never give anything back to the community. So it's refreshing to see new people who start giving right away.
On this topic, it's not always visible that people have gifted. I did, yesterday, after you generously gave me the Little Big Adventure, gift the X-Wing that I offered to you and you didn't want. Someone PM'd me and we communicated only through PMs and not via posts. I found it really challenging to keep up yesterday.

I think the generous spirit on this forum has mostly permeated all involved.

I still have this warm fuzzy feeling about this forum and the people on it, from all corners of the earth. What a lovely surprise.

You're right, I'd already decided to wait until later next week, as I know they will be swamped for a while.
Besides, I bought a lot of games and haven't even begun to download any of them, so it's not as though my life will end if I don't get Nox in the near future.

Popular this week would be my personal estimate. There are some games (like Heroes of Might and Magic 3 and Neverwinter Nights 2) which stubbornly refuse to leave the best 25. :P

Slowing down a bit eh? I'm just hanging out to toss a hopeful click on a game or three and for the chat - those of you still hunting your top choices have my sympathies! ;)

Can't get the hang of this 'snipping' business. ;-)

LinustheBold: On the other hand, we could have a grand time pushing something like Daikatana and seeing how it goes. Probably set gaming back 20 years, or something.
avatar
toxicTom: Well for all its history, Daikatana should be in everone's collection.
I agree with that.

I have bought it knowing full well I would never play it - FPSs aren't my thing, so if I'm going to play one, it has to be REALLY good.

But I couldn't not have Daikatana in my collection. It's a piece of... no, not THAT! Of gaming history!
