Welcome amlamb and hope you enjoy each forum.
If there is a game your looking for you can always put a request in the Trading Post.
I do wish you the best on finding your game at a reasonable price.

I see there are a few that "suffer" the "I don't feel like gaming" affliction.
I've thought about deleting the games and just keeping the short cut to one, but then would regret that thinking a game I deleted was the one I wanted to play. Oh, the dilemmas...

So far when I have purchased a used game from Amazon, the sellers there I do trust. Feedback from other customers say a lot...same for Ebay. I sell my games both on Ebay and Amazon after I play them one time. I take good care of my games and I think most people do. JMO smile

I usually by my Games from Amazon, but they only had privately owned ones for the "Darkness Within", and they were to expensive.
I usually buy my games new and then I sell them on Amazon.
I'm guess I'm just afraid to buy a used one because I'm afraid I want like thier condition when I get them home.


I wish I had known you wanted Darkness Within. I just sold mine on Ebay for 7.99. Played only one time too frown

What about playing a different sort of game? I used to be an avid adventure player, but now I play RPG and action too because I got bored with playing adventure games. Just a suggestion (hides).

You know, I am just not good at RPG games. I usually die constantly. I very very very first game was one my brother installed on my first computer back in 1996. It was Duke Nukem. I died over and over and over LOL. I finally learned to use "god mode" and shot all my enemies! laugh ::whew::

cmcd, just have to ask, how many of the 40+ games do you/are you playing? Or do you have the same affliction I do? sad

Lornin, that's okay, you can come out of hiding now.... evil

Becky, only if popcorn is served during the "intermission". yes

I just discovered this thread - made me LOL. I used to have a folder on my desktop titled "So-So Games" and another one titled "Sorta Fun Games."

Glad I found this thread...I was worried that I was the only one who was experiencing this feeling of disappointment. I failed to complete the last three games I started: Nikopol, Sinking Island, and Sword of Toledo. Just basically lost interest. Then, on a whim, I visited some Syberia 1 and 2 websites to see if I could rekindle my interest. There, lost in the incredible screenshots, with the equally incredible musical score in the background, I found what I was looking for (http://mysterymanor.net/syberia2.htm). Although I played both quite some time ago, I cant wait to play both again, back to back. Dave at interact has a great price on the package. Soon I will see that funeral cortage of automotons marching down the road in Valadeline...!

Welcome to Gameboomers amlamb. wave I also have dial-up and I can relate. I tried to download Ravenhearst 2 and after 3 days and several glitches hardwall, I decided to wait until it hit the stores.
