Oops, I meant Victoria Complete or HOI3.  I already have EU3 + all expansions. :blush:

They are both pretty crappy games, but the latter has a much higher chance of being fixed in future patches while the former has a sequel coming out that doesn't look all that bad (I will be buying it ASAP, I think).

I vote HOI 3.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Gamespot is offering MLB 2k10 for 2.99$ Not a typo. 3$.

:huh:  So is $2.99 the "not a typo" price or is the game really $3?

I would not mind giving it a try, if you haven't given it away already.

Outcast for 5.99.
Decided to get this one.  I remember great reviews, but my machine was too feeble to play this... until it became too powerful to play this.  Now, apparently, the bugs are worked out.

Master of Magic is available at GoG for 5.99:

Still as awesome as ever.

I don't recall, even though I still have my hard-copy of this floating around somewhere; does the game have any form of MP?  I'm still going to buy the new version even if it doesn't, mind.

I still have my original copy as well, but got the new one to take advantage of their work making it operate on XP, which I couldn't do.
