OMG!! How did you find out a thing like that? And, also, way cool!     

It's a quote from Teetat (which is why it's in a quote box) -- He's given me permission to copy his posts over here so that he doesn't have to post at multiple forums

Wheeee~!!

So excited so excited so excited so excited so excited    

Thanks for letting us know Genki   

        Joining in the excitement also !!!!!!!       

Just 'cause I'm thinking about how cool it is, here's the intro from the game that I currently have up as a banner (this one:
)
NIGHT OF THE SCARECROWS


It's a simplistic but hard timed-arcade match-3 game, which I couldn't get anywhere in, but I LOVE the intro movie!  The YOU LOSE movie is awesome, too, but I didn't see it on Youtube, and Big Fish no longer offers this game

WOW, looks awesome!!!   I wonder if Jonathan Boakes is involved too..
(on a side topic, I was on my ipad before and could NOT see where to write in a spoiler..as the ipad doesn't really have the "hover over" ...) got it now!!!

Hi all!!   RL has been a bit hectic lately, now we're preparing for the worst snow & ice storm ever with significant accumulations of both. Warnings are already scrolling across the bottom of the TV for Sunday through Monday. Stay safe & warm to all those involved.

I've noticed some new "faces" here...hey y'all, how's it goin'?   

I'd been looking for some info on True Fear: Forsaken Souls & finally found a video. I was going to say it looks very similar to Bad Omen and whaddayaknow...it is!!!!! Hooray, I sure hope it makes a showing tomorrow, er...I mean today!!! Wow, does it ever look super creepy and a CE to boot!
I'm awful tempted to stay up & would if I could, but I am exhausted.
Fighting the crowds at the grocery today is not my idea of a good time!

AND THERE'S A BOGO $1.99 CE SALE!!!!!!!

  

(Bad Omen/True Fear: Forsaken Souls CE, that is!)

Um, oh, yeah. I swore no more games this month. Reminds me of one of my favourite fridge magnets -

"Lead us not into temptation..." Oh, who am I kidding? Follow me, I know a shortcut!

  

YIPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE           

Bad Omen\True Fear is finally here!        

DEFINATLY buying this now! 

      



DJRum, sorry you're having such horrible weather.    
Stay safe.

OH no!!! GLITCH!!!!! Fails to install!!!! Oh No!!!     

I cannot even connect to BF.   It comes up as Terminated.. Connection taking too long.

dj---more bad weather??        

OH no, why today??? How can this happen to us nice people who are just wanting a good scream or two before bedtime? WAH!

Bought the game and it still comes up "installation failed" - BUT........

Checked out my computer to find any hidden corrupted files for it, and discovered I had 1.6GB left free on the hard drive - so that might be it. Have cleared out another 10GB and will try again.

Bought it.

Downloaded it.

LOVING it!    

     

               

Justie, is it still not installing for you?   

Am downloading for the third time. Having cleared as much space on my hard drive as possible and deleted the usual files they tell us to delete. Got about 20mins left before dl complete.

I am doing a disk clean up and a McAfee Scan.  Still no access to BF.   Having no other
problems with other sites,  so wondering if this is coming from BF' end.

This game sure is reluctant to show its face! First, months since the beta tests, and now this!

Hope you at least get bf soon luvtoread, that would be even worse   

It has to be BF.    I have been cleaning up  and deleting old files this week and results
came up that there really isn't anything major that needs to be done.

Oh well.    Eventually,  BF will start behaving itself,   if they want to sell games.

Stoppin' in quick to say hey y'all, & see what I've missed.  RL has been pretty intense, so playtime has been riding in the back of the bus... but if my friends are right, i'm ridin' the short bus most of the time   so at least I can see my reprieve if not engage much.  2 very cool things: Bad Omen released, but a different name?    Cant wait to get my head into that.  And Asylum to be released soon, oh, the antici............pation!  Dj & luv, our area of the world is in for it again, sounds like.  Storm warnings & advisories started rolling about 0315 this morning.  Yep, here it comes again, dammit.  Well, one of the many things I loved when lurking in the D&E forum at bfg (may it rest in peace) was Esme's rants, & by jove, i'm laughing at 'em again here.  Esme, you lend some great color to any conversation, & glad you're expounding here  .  Hope everyone is well & gaming happy.  Genki, I hope we can pull that Cognition group play soon, but if you guys are into starting real soon, i'll catch up when I can.  Hey JTF, did you play, & did you like it?

YAY!!! I had to trick it, it tried really hard to stall on me again, but I outthunk it, and now the game is mine all mine!!! YAY!!!

jessmom, I've been buying games so fast last couple of weeks, I haven't got time to play them.   

Seriously, RL has got in the way of my game playing AND reviewing, so no, have not played anything new recently. But am playing True Fear (Bad Omen) - actually, true fear has a nice ring to it. Um, what was I saying? Oh yes, am about to get into playing that, now that I have tamed it and taught it who's boss!   

JTF, lmao    you're obviously made of sturdy stuff, so of course you tamed the beast & showed it who's boss!     

Yay, it's here...finally!  And seriously, True Fear is ranking high on my creep-o-meter. I noticed the reference to Mystery Valley (funny, I thought that game was kind of spooky, also).

Good to know The Ring girl got another starring role.   

luvtoread, hope you can access BF soon. I wish I was more of a tech person, so I could help you.

JustTheFacts, great!!!
