    Yes 'Game' stores these days just concentrates on more recent games. E.B had the right balance between retro and modern gaming, until Game bought them out that is...

    The worst part of 'Game' stores is getting past the PS2, PSP, Xbox and all other variants to find the little section of PC games they have or is that just my local store ?

    You're right, DarkStrider. The PC games are right at the back of the shop in a tiny corner. I did manage to buy Diablo II though ;)

    Amazon for me in the future!

    I buy all my games now thru Amazon it's cheaper and less stressful, unlike shopping.

    Another day at school, proing my ropy knowledge of French grammar, lack of philosophical knowledge, and bare understanding of warfare in the 19th century.

    My bed is calling me, must sleeeeeeeeeeep!

    You mean EB has computer games??? The 3 I've been in here only have consoles, magazines and DVDs for sale.

    I had a dream that I was releasing a Billy Idol cover album. The intro track went:

    Interviewer: You're just singing over Billy's songs!
    Me: Yep.
    Interviewer: And you're a really sucky singer!
    Me: I know. It's totally punk, ain't it? :p

    Best part of the dream was Billy came into the store where I was signing copies and approved of the whole deal! :lol:

    I hadn't dream of SP either. Well maybe it's me or because I live in the best place on earth but me local EBgames has a lot of old PC games, including Baldur's Gate 2 and Icewind dale, and PCs game ain't just in a tiny spot. But it just mean I'm very weird.

    I am staying out of AoDA, or at least the topic about homosexuality. I missed 3 pages, and because everybody write freakin' novels about what they want to say, I'm not going to go back and read them all...
