Well, the only thing I'll add is that there is no commitment beyond the pay per month... so if you end up not liking the service I would say the most you've lost is 1 month's cost. They are a "cancel or resub at anytime with no downside" type of service. You won't even "lose" the month's cost...
I had read about the Gamestop-Ebgames thing at one point. But, I never really noticed any difference or changes. So I have no idea if it ever became a fact, I never really looked into it. Most malls around here (and I live in the land of malls so thats a few) have both stores, I figured if they...
I buy my PC Games from whichever B&M store has it in stock at the best price. I'm lucky enough to be within 10-15 minutes of just about every major B&M that sells games. When I want to preorder a game, I do it from Gamestop because they have never let me down. EBGames used to be my choice...
Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder ... I think Q 5 was the first graphical adventure that really convinced me that it just might be ok to put down the pen & paper once in a while and hole up with a computer for an RPG fix. What a top notch game that was. Put me on the list of Kings Quest...
Great writeup Robert, I agree fully :emoji_thumbsup: I'm well beyond what you'd consider an avid gamer... gaming freak by my own description ;) I just can't get enough of this game, and I have barely scratched the surface as far as I can tell. I just spend so much time exploring, noting...
It has definately sucked me in as well. It's the first thing able to pull me away from WoW for hours on end, quite an accomplishment. I agree with the ugly NPCs comment. I had trouble making my own character look good, there's too many options for customizing looks for me. But, if you have...
Similar to certain MMOs in that you have the freedom to go wherever and do whatever you like, but the story and world is much more interactive in Oblivion than any MMO. I'm a WoW addict, but a single player version of WoW would be boring, they really are 2 different animals. I'd almost call...
Game of the Year if you ask me or just about 90% of people playing it. Take Morrowind, remove all the stuff that wasn't so good or was tedius, step up the graphics, sound, voice acting, storyline and side quests, and you have Oblivion. If you're even considering this game, don't hesitate to pick...
I subbed for over a year and loved it. The only reason I've cancelled is I'm addicted to WoW and haven't touched my consoles in a while. At some point I will resub to GameFly. It really rocks. I had the 2 game subscription. Getting the new releases depends on when you add them to your queue...
Check out The Longest Journey. One of the best adventure games ever made, will run on older equipment and runs on XP without issue also... and can be picked up in stores for a cool 10 bucks. :emoji_thumbsup: I also suggest heading over to www.gamerankings.com and checking out some of the top...
I'm playing and loving it... I think the story is good, it sucked me in, and I care more about the story and overall game experience lately, than I care about fighting and such. But... the fighting is very cool also. I also enjoy that it's different, it's not your typical elf and dwarf...
Thanks for the review... there may be tons of reviews out there, but I always like to see stuff posted on forums that I frequent, I trust the honesty more... less fanboi type stuff typically... much appreciated. Looks like I'll stick with my decision to let this one pass :emoji_thumbsup:
Wow, all of a sudden these games look enticing again! http://eqforums.station.sony.com/eq/...sage.id=66#M66 That's EQ, EQ2, PS, SWG, EQOA, Tanarus, Infantry, and Cosmic Rift for one fee :emoji_thumbsup:
I was lucky enough to find a copy at my local Best Buy... I caved to the pressure from friends who are playing... I'm still up in the air about it, it's fun but I think EQ2 wow'd me more in the first few days of play. Of course, I'm getting close to cancelling EQ2 so that means nothing... I...
The manager at my EB harassed me so much (yes, he argued with me) over this $3 protection thing, that Halo 2 was the last purchase I will ever make in EBGames. Gamestop now gets all my B&M business. Would you believe the manager stood there in a store full of people, and told me that a...
I recommend GameFly :emoji_thumbsup: It's my favorite monthly fee, works well for me. Of course I don't mind a few days between shipping out a game and receiving another. With the 2 game plan I just make sure to only do 1 at a time. But I'll agree on Project Gotham Racing 2 and Halo...

Well I bailed on my plans so I could get an hour with this game last night... I personally love it so far. Now, I've only done the training so far, but it's hooked me. I will say that it is one of those love it or hate it type games, I don't think there's middle ground here. I find it very...
I have been waiting a long time for this one, hoping to pick it up today at Circuit City (to get the $10 GC) No way this one's going on my GameFly list, it's a must have for me.. I just hope I'm not disappointed. If anyone has any "hands-on" with it yet, I'd love to hear about it.
Just making sure this is visible... off the deals page...
More information can be found in this thread at the GotApex site. Scroll down on the page to post #966 by Apex, where he explains they have closed shop. Oh well, guess I'll wait on my upgrade after all :frowning:
Everyone over at Gotapex forums seem to be in the same boat... no real communication on their orders yet... I'm thinking it's time to bail on this deal myself... Any differing opinions from you all here at HTF? My opinion is it's beginning to stink like a scam unfortunately. :angry:
*crawls out from under a rock* Doug, thanks for taking the ball on this when I fell off the face of the planet. I've updated my thread, please see if it's satisfactory to you, as I link back to this thread. Hopefully it will help get everyone on track to use your list. I've updated my...
***UPDATED - 2/20/04 - First off, my apologies for having let this thread and list go. I had a whole lot of personal things going on for quite a few months there that dropped this type of stuff to the backburner. I should have taken the time to give you all an update. That said...
Looks like...
Hello everyone, I've been so busy lately that I'm completely "out of the loop" of the current Xbox Live game lineup. I'd really appreciate if someone could compile a complete list of Current and Soon to be released Live games so that I can get the database all nice and up to date. I went...
***UPDATED - 5/13/03 -Addded Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Star Wars: The Clone Wars to the database. Legend below updated as well. My Xbox Live time has been limited recently. Are there any new games that I am missing?
Please see the first post in the thread for more details.
I really appreciate all the great info and opinions guys :emoji_thumbsup: I was specifically wondering if I should take advantage of Dell 20% off deal on the 18.1" that's going on right now. With the info you've all provided, I think I'll stick it out for a while and see what comes down the...
