tomyam80: Actually, i'll hv to sorta side with MarkoH01 on this one. I know there r gaming addicts who REALLY 'need' their gaming fix from particular games. (Well truth be told, i was once also one of those. :p) I was pretty much addicted to playing Diablo/2 & Dota some time in the past. While technically they were wants but they really felt more like needs so i can uds where MarkoH01 is coming from. ;)
However, i wun go as far to say the people or @ least everyone who asked for a game needs them but i wld agree that SOME (perhaps A FEW wld be more accurate) ppl do need their games. :)
MarkoH01: Obviously both of you did not see my emoticon. Of course I don't think that anybody really NEEDS a game. It is distraction, fun and maybe even LIKE an addiction. It is just that in a gaming community of course people are THINKING that they do need games to survive. But that is o.k. for me because that is what true fans do :) In the end it does not really matter for me since people who want and people who (are thinking that they) need games both will ask here. So to make sure that those really are getting some games and not the ones who'd only sell them to others you should use the giveaways (which was what I wanted to say with my post
here).
Yes i did c ur emoticon but i misread that as a nod to the gaming addicts. Haha. Anyway like i said earlier, of cos no person really needs games to survive but to some gaming addicts the games really do feel more like 'needs' than just wants. That's the only pt i'm making. :)
Edit: Actually on 2nd thoughts, i wld like to bring up another pt albeit a personal one so pls bear with me on this. :p
While i do hv quite a few games that i wld really love to play & request on this thread (the World In Conflict requested by another member earlier was actually one of those, other than Act Of War which i unfortunately missed in the Insomia Sale), i hv refained from asking for them here due to my personal view that i dun wish other ppl to 'waste' their $ in order to gift me a game. My exception is asking for game that were (1), either previously given away as freebies (here or otherwise) &/or (2), a kind generous donor ALREADY bought it specifically for giveaway purposes.
And NO, this 2nd pt ISN'T a request for any of those games in case anyone misunderstand but IF condition (1) &/or (2) had been met & somehow some mysterious code appear in my chat i guess i wun refuse of cos. ;p
