gameon: No this is an error for necrovision that i'm talking about. It was nice that they fixed dark fall, so i hope they will sort out this mess too.
Oh right, sorry for the misunderstanding.

Lafazar: Oh right, sorry for the misunderstanding.

gameon: No problem. By the way, did you get any games from the groupees bundle?
Yes: Dark Fall: Lights Out Director's Cut + Dark Fall: Lost Souls, Sideway New York, LightFish, Xotic and Ubersoldier 2. Why?

gameon: I was just wondering if any of the other games had any problems with downloading. Also curious to know if the other games are worth getting.
The ones I have seem to download just fine (Sideways and Lightfish are Steam only, Ubersoldier 2 is a 2.6 GB zip and Xotic is a 1.7GB exe). But I have such an obscene backlog that I won't be trying them out anytime soon. I'm currently playing Dark Fall 2 and I really like it so far.

gameon: I didn't realise dark fall lights out is actually the predecessor of dark fall lost souls.
Yeah, the first one is subtitled "The Journal", but since the third one doesn't have a 3 in the title it's pretty easy to assume it's the first one.

I'm interested in Dark Fall, but it's a 3 game minimum, right? Are any of the rest any good? Nikopol got really mixed reviews, is it any good? Are there (or more) other games somebody could recommend? Thanks. :)

Hmm, the Ball is supposed to be pretty good. I believe it's a bit of a Portal-ish first person puzzler.

Alternatively, you could pick one of the Steam only games and trade/give away the key guilt free (since there's only the Steam key there's no way you could give the game away and keep it at the same time).

Really? I've heard only negative things about The Ball. And yeah, the giveaway idea is not a bad idea.

The Ball was in the original Be Mine bundle and I only got good impressions from the comments in this thread:
http://www.gog.com/en/forum/general/the_bundle_of_love

For example:
The Ball? Instabuy.
Last one seems to be The Ball, [..] making the bundle interesting already.
I've already got the Ball (which is bloody good)

DukeNukemForever: News about Necrovision from the facebook-page:
"We've identified the problem with the Necrovision DRM-free version... our Amazon cloud had a 5 gig limit per file and believe it or not the actual Necrovision file exceeds 5 gigs! We're uploading it to another cloud without these limits. We'll post when the file is available for download. Thanks for your patience!"

gameon: I cant believe it, but they have re-uploaded the link at........5gb only! AGAIN!
Well, they haven't said it's fixed yet so I'm not sure why you tried again. :P

I'm just waiting for them to say something.

gameon: Well i checked the links so far. It went to the 1.1gb phase, then the page was down with some XML text or something, and then went to a 5gb link. So its definitely being worked on. The problem is that they left the 1.1gb thing there for days. I dont think they have a clue on how to get around the amazon issue.

If it was me i'd split the zip into two downloads, but thats just common sense......
Considering they bundled the Dark Fall games together, I think it's safe to say they don't have much common sense. :P

Sideways is very good. :)

On facebook they wrote they will move the file to another server, and that's unfortunately exactly what they did. I believe they don't realize that there are better options for them and the users, so the only solution is to wait and hope that in some days the servers are free.

I've just downloaded it and it's fine. Yes it's only 5GB, but the .zip isn't corrupted any more.

EDIT: I haven't actually installed it, by 'fine' I just mean I can extract the .zip.

gameon: They sent an e-mail back to me saying that the developer of necrovision sorted the file out and said it can now be installed fine. I am downloading now, and will check later to see if it installs ok.

gameon: I have no idea what the bonus will be, but i guess the next bonus would unlock with 10,000 bundles sold.
installed fine for me now.

aaaand it's running! Yay, let the slaughtering commence ;)
