Today I was talking to my brother (who is also my roommate) about some books I had ordered from amazon. I mentioned that I had ordered an art book, and my bro told me had a really good art book was still packed away in the garage somewhere ( we moved 2 years ago but we still have a crapload of stuff unpacked).
So I dug through all the boxes and coolers looking for the book. I didn't find it, but I did find
Baldur's Gate 2:Shadows of Amn. Yay!
I had started playing this a few years ago, but I had only played it for about 30 minutes. Then I put it aside for awhile, we ended up moving and it got packed away.. After the move I couldn't find it with my other pc games, and I couldn't remember what I had done with it so I thought it was gone forever. I thought maybe it had mistakenly been packed away with one of my other ex-roomates stuff.
anybody ever unexpectedly find a long lost videogame somewhere?

Fragile allegiance. I have immediately conquered a few asteroids, made a few allies, built a huge fleet and started to CONQUER!

Oh. I read the title expecting you to say that you had found a woman with a ball gag and a whip but I was sorely disappointed when I clicked into the thread.

well I do have a few of those buried in my baseme....
oops never mind
But seriously finding a lady in the garage with a ball gag and whip would't come as a surprise because the chicks just dig me man.I downright expect it to happen. I gotta line of ladies just waiting to catch a peep of me through my window right now. Sorry ladies but playtime is over , I have to get busy with Baldurs Gate right now,

Not found a long lost video game no, but I did manage to get my hands on three Masamune Shirow art books the other day from a store that was closing down. That made my week. I'd been looking for those books on and off for a few years.

I once found out I already had a copy of a game at home when I returned from a shop where I bought such a copy.
Well, I gave it to someone I think =)

I found my copy of Under a Killing Moon, still in mint condition with all the CDs and manuals, amidst a stack of old stuff.

I've had that happen with Discworld books :-) several times no less.

Found my soul after trading it away for a free Speterra Core game...I can NOT get into that game since it doesn't give me any idea where to go.

Hehe several times with the same book? At one point I somehow had 3 copies of The Fifth Elephant floating around

No, different books, but same series... I think... I may have had another copy of Small Gods once (I have two at the moment). I gave away two books to my brother a couple of years ago, but I can't remember which ones.

I found a pen.
