-hugs- I hope Paddington takes good care you.

Don't worry about us, Tony. Live life and be free! I hope all goes well.

SLICKDEALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!......That B@STARD!!!!!!!! *cue dramatic soap opera music.

In all seriousness take care Tony. I hope all is well!

Originally Posted by Syntax Error I have a two year old and, on weekends, usually make him eggs for breakfast.

There's even a chance that I might burn them or drop them on the floor but try explaining that to a toddler. This story has no relation to this thread, of course. Just an exciting tale of one father trying to get his kid breakfast and the kid flipping out. He's a toddler though with little control over his thoughts and emotions so at least he has an excuse.

substitute "pancakes" for "eggies", and i have the same scenario play out every weekend.

you could include my story in the bundle. kinda like magicka dlc - different versions of the same robes...

good luck with your family Tony.

Hope everything goes well for you and yours, T-Money.

Really wish you best Tony! Take care!

Thanks for the kind words guys, not trying to start a pity party here, just trying to keep you guys appraised of why I've not been around as much. Given all the churn and recent changes in the thread with new rules and such, I didn't want you guys to think I was throwing up my hands and walking away.

The timing has just been really bad lol.

Cheers,
Tony

Take your time. Worst case scenario, you offer us the deals at a future date. I know some people here can't wait. If they're that impatient, they should figure out how to build time machines.

I can probably go 3 years without another deal. (backlog of over 450 games now with another 30-40 that I haven't activated yet lol) Hope your family gets well soon. Oh, and my wife is still in awe of your greatness for getting her You Don't Know Jack so cheap.

Saboteur is a great game, but watch out cause on PC if you use a resolution above 1280x it breaks the map and you can no longer set accurate waypoints. The map is huge and this makes getting to your missions a huge pain in the ass. I'm not even sure I want to continue playing the game, I already beat it on PS3 and loved it.

True, but there aren't too many Origin codes being sold in the Steam Trade thread, and I don't think I've seen The Saboteur there before (although I could be wrong).

Sorry to hear, Tony! I hope things get a bit better for you and yours.

Ah, thanks for the warning. I'm playing on a laptop, so I'd probably turn the resolution down anyway to run the game more smoothly; that wouldn't be a dealbreaker for me. A huge map sounds awesome -- I love atmospheric games like that, even if you sacrifice a bit of gameplay for the setting.

Be well, I am going through a similar situation. Love and Support go out to you and your family

Tony,
Think positive and hang in there, everything will work out for the best. We CAGers are in no hurry, games can wait.

Remember, you're awesome!

Tony, take care and my thoughts go out to your family. Been through some tough stuff the last three years myself, so I know how things can weigh down. Here's hoping things lighten up for you and yours soon.
