bought my 3rd classic game....Baldur's Gate II....it's really great to buy these classic games online and not have to mess with serial numbers and problems one bit. And the fact that I even get the soundtracks....oh man. Happy camper 100 per cent.

Just the other day I got DAO , I played it a year ago but wanted to play one of the newer content download such as the stone prisoner.

Bloody hell......after an hour trying to understand why the serial for the downloadable content didn't work, I just repackaged the freaking thing and resold it on amazon the same day.

Who needs stress when you can have fun easy, with 100 per cent no fuss. ;)

I predict that in a month's time, we'll be seeing a message like this:

"...bought my 300th classic game...System Shock 2...it's really great to buy these classic games online and not have to mess with serial numbers and problems one bit, but I have no more money to pay rent, but....oh man. My wallet isn't a happy camper. My landlord is knocking at my door and I'm starving...

Who needs food when you can have fun easy, with 100 per cent no fuss. ;)"

:P

ah ah....not at all....actually I only want to buy four or five of the best RPG's and it's been ages since I played videogames...... in about 4 years I only played DAO once for a couple weeks....so now it's time to make up a bit of lost fun, but I'll keep it under control.

Actually I 'reward' myself 10 minutes of gameplay for every 15 minutes of other tasks I do, such as studying etc.....I am not in my 20's anymore

Be sure to get Sacrifice too, if you can afford it. It's not an RPG, but it's an excellent game, and a criminally underrated one as well.

never heard of it, I'll check it out

eh eh, Rampancy might have been right.....just checked out Sacrifice and found it quite impressive for the graphics considering how old it is....also in-game soundtrack, all for 6 bucks....and of course gotta check out Blood now

;)

That's a second vote for Sacrifice from me. Truly a hidden gem. And if you feel like laughing your ass off playing something just as original and creative, get Giants: Citizen Kabuto.

If you want a quality RPG, get Grimrock. If you're looking for a party-based dungeon crawler then that's an advantage. But regardless, get it anyway.
