I haven't played the Kohan games in a long time and can't give many specific comments - I have the retail discs for Immortal Sovereigns and Ahriman's Gift, and I played Kohan II on Gametap if I remember correctly (Kohan II is no longer on Gametap) - but they were fantastic. There are some unique...

I think it's possible that the massive failure of Elemental might have put Stardock in a financial bind. It's not uncommon to see companies sell the most profitable units/divisions during crises; they are worth the most after all. Still, I'll take Wardell's statement at face value. As a lazy...

I feel bad too. I'm going to repost a reply I wrote to a thread started in the PC forum. This makes me shake my head that Stardock has come to this. As a business, Impulse and its predecessor, Stardock Central, had a clear first mover advantage as a digital distributor. It was basically the...

According to the faq on the Impulse front page, it looks like it will operate independently for a little while. I'm sure it'll take some time for Gamestop to integrate Impulse into its operations. This makes me shake my head that Stardock has come to this. As a business, Impulse and its...

I remembered that I have a sealed copy of Skies of Arcadia Legends and got excited for a minute, but it seems ebay price for a new copy is around $50. Meh.

Mother Shaq-Fu, I've got a dozen games purchased but not downloaded from GOG. This can't be a marketing gimmick. It's a terrible idea to enrage your customers with 1) Loss of service and 2) Feelings of being ripped off. If it's a legitimate closing, I sympathize with the staff. It couldn't...

It's a pretty good deal for one of my favorite recent shows, but having just finished watching the first season yesterday on Netflix download (because today might be the day Netflix takes the first season off of Instant Download), there is a big difference in standard and HD. It's a great series...

:applause: This is a fantabulous deal for you. This isn't directed at you, OP, but whenever I see posts like these, I have two questions. 1. How desperate is the seller that he can't find the relatively small amount in some other way or sell the games on eBay if he has the week to spare? 2...

http://insider.espn.go.com/insider/promo/worldcup?addata=2010_insdr_eax_mag_ban $59.99 for new subscribers for the year of Insider, ESPN magazine and a copy of the 2010 FIFA World Cup for Xbox 360 or PS3. Sorry if repost.

This is why I'm going to apply to law schools in my 30s. I want to roll like javeryh. I'm so jealous. 3rd row in MSG to watch Pearl Jam AND a Donkey Kong themed poster? That's awesome. I just hope I don't spend my days at work at law firms checking my boxers for sharts. Yeah, that's right. I...

I need to sell off a pretty large collection of games. My guess is it's around 500 or so games. :cry: I was comparing ebay, where I have pretty good feedback (100% on close to 100 feedback ratings), with Amazon marketplace. I have some questions for those of you who have sold on both. 1. By my...

Is it just me, or do the $5.99 games seem much more valuable to the rest of you than the $9.99 games, release era be damned? Can't wait to be a pornstar again in Fallout 2.

Tuesday night, I was able to get PC COD4 + PS3 COD3 and was very satisfied, but I completely understood how Compusa is closing doors everywhere. My local Compusa was very poorly run (though with very polite and friendly workers). I was up at the counters, counted 2 customers being helped at...

Why don't you just download a free trial of adobe acrobat 8 standard or professional ? Either includes a typewriter toolbar that allows you type straight into any .pdf document.

It's coming to gametap in a couple of weeks, if anyone's on gametap.
