I have to say, I much prefer Glidos on its own than with DOSBox, though. The problem with Glidos on its own is having to pay money to get rid of that spinning logo. Annoying. Tomb Raider 1 and Unfinished Business were very unstable for me with DOSBox as they kept crashing.

Looking for scare's this weekend. Oh and guess who got a bonus in his paycheck this week... I got Railworks as well and a bunch of DLC too, but that's for a different set of geek friends! |

What's weird about Keepsake is the box says it's rated "E" (I seem to have a US import), but the discs say "T". How odd!

I haven't bought a game in a long time. I just checked my Amazon wish list, and saw that "Ghosts", an interactive educational game about real-life testimonies about ghosts voiced by Christopher Lee went from around $75 to $13, so I snatched it up. I feel a little guilty about spending money, but I've been very curious about this game, since I love ghosts (even if it isn't a game and just info with pictures) and Christopher Lee.
My birthday is also coming up, so I'm making a list of games for my wishlist, hoping someone in my family will buy me one.

So far I'm not keen on the Atlantis one. There's a lot more objects per "map", the scanner doesn't (For some reason) work like a metal detector and it's just... Eh. It's like they added things for the sake of it.

People who want games companies to make money so they will continue to make games in the future.
I would also draw your attention to this forum rule if you plan to say more on this.

Money is the root of evil you know.
And besides I know where your mind went...pirating maybe? No no no I never said I am a pirate Cant prove it either Maybe I just steal them... Or I dont play games... Or I play them in my mind... Or I borrow them... So many possibilities... But you didnt take the time to think about thos now did you? mhmm |

In any case, it's irrelevant to this thread. If you don't buy games, don't participate. Easy enough.

I just found a copy of Necronomicon on Amazon for $3. The shipping was $3.50! :lol:
I've heard the good and the bad, but I'm really looking forward to it. We'll see in a day or two... |

So you finally caved in and bought Broken Sword again, eh? I have that same compilation myself. You won't go wrong with the original Broken Sword. Then you have the sequels to look forward to as well as Beneath a Steel Sky as a bonus.
