adambiser: Thanks also for the info. I can forgive a good deal of nostalgia in a game. Older graphics and sound aren't a show killer for me, but clunky controls and just plain dumb stuff can be.

Example of "dumb stuff": Why can't I see anything but walls in Might and Magic 1? I have to read that I'm standing at stairs leading out or in to a city. You couldn't just draw that on the screen, too? :(

Arthandas: Today's is Friday 13th, a good day to play some Blood. Too bad I don't have it <hint><hint>

And now for something completely different: HIB3B-1TLCZ-NRC84-YMSNY-PDIWX (HIB2 Desura key)

i666an: ooh I redeemed that code, thank you so so much :)

adambiser: Just making sure you see this post directed to you.

I also asked this in the promo thread, but I'll ask here, too, since it is more active:

Are Battle Isle Platinum and Settlers 2 good? Both have been on and off my wishlist a few times. Are they still good for first-time players who enjoy older games or are nostalgia goggles needed?

i666an: We await your review :)

adambiser: Thanks! but you didn't have to do that, i666an.
Guess I'll have to start on this over the weekend. :)

Thanks again for Battle Isle Platinum.

VIPERs: I finished Broken Sword 1 and Phantasmagoria 1.
Would love to continue with 2nd parts in these series.
