lowyhong: Never heard of GOG.com or Witcher.

By the way, if you sign up for Spy Party's beta access now, you can pre-order Spy Party at a cheaper price than usual. The catch is that it is on a purely selective basis - you will be put into a waiting list and, I believe, chosen at random. To sign up, go here:

lowyhong: First print or re-published?

I'll buy a copy from you if it's first print.

Pheace: You still need to register online for patches though.

orcishgamer: I'm well aware of this, I don't think this is DRM, though it does suck. I suspect this position will be reversed.

Now suppose I'm wrong of both counts: Will I cut off my nose to spite my face? A company goes 90% of the way making a big, new release DRM free, they screw up one detail with patching, do I refuse to buy it?

My answer is no, YMMV.

sfgames: From now until May 17th get 5 PC adventure games from Strategy First for only $4.95 - an $80 savings. Just enter promo code SFIADVENTURE at checkout.

The games contained in the 5 pack are:
D.W.A.R.F.S.
Jack Keane
Ankh 2: Hearts of Osiris
Ankh 3: Battle Of The Gods
The Abbey

Pheace: If anyone can help me get a $5 copy of Tropico Gold on Steam that'd be great, it's not even 1$ = 1 Euro at this point, 6,34 euro's :/

Pm me ^^

carnival73: Does Strategy First require use of a client - can I back these games up to disc? Don't want to have to shell out another $14 to have a back up mailed to me....

Ubivis: they don't use a client, you buy it and you will get a download link for each game.

From the last packs before, there was only one game, that had a separate downloader for getting the whole game. All others can be just installed out of the box.

carnival73: Interesting,

Shortly after visiting Strategy First and watching a few hourglasses, my computer is starting to act again like it used to when I had visitors.

Virama: ARRRGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

I KNOW I've heard countless people bashing Disciples III for being shit but at this price... And I LOVE Disciples 2.....

Disciples III

Egotomb: Those of a sensitive nature should be advised that this is STEAMing shit.

GameRager: I think he means it's on Steam and Steam is shite.

Foxhack: DRM IS BAAAAAAAAD WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH
