GR00T: Yep, that's exactly it.

Yep, +1 for you, as I found a couple games that I thought I'd check out, even though they weren't on the wishlist.

Well, in my case at least, it was only $1.58. I can't think of anything offhand that I could buy for that and I ended up with 2 games for that money. So it's really not a problem for my wallet. :)
Yeah, not really a wallet problem, I speak in jest of course. But like many here, I'm a self-admitted tightwad. LOL

I threw Lemon_Curry a +1 also for bringing it to my own attention.

Well, he deserves a +1 every time he posts just for the choice of avatar alone. :P

I can't argue with that. :)

skeletonbow: I'm afraid I don't quite follow what you mean.
It's not apparent now, but when I frist saw your thread your original post was marked as "Low Rated". Maybe it was a bug in the forums? Anyway, thanks just the same for the heads up.

Oh... really? That's weird.. I can't imagine why anyone would flag it negatively, it's a positive message afterall - to alert people to what seems to be a great deal to me. :) Maybe some people don't like Interplay and don't want their games to sell or something, I dunno. :)

The only thing I can think of is perhaps if someone just read the subject and did not actually read my entire post and possibly assumed I was saying something negative when the opposite is true. I did update the first post a bit later on to make the point of my post a bit more clear though too, without someone having to read the whole thing first. :)

...aaand this post got low-rated.

Strange, it doesn't show low-rated here. Can't imagine why someone would want to do that, but it doesn't matter to me either as GOG forum rep is completely meaningless anyway. Mind you, if there is someone out there who happens to have a chip on their shoulder with me, I'd much rather engage them in civil polite discussion about it either publicly or privately. A lot more positive things can come from doing that for anyone involved.

Heck, even if I disagree with someone from time to time I don't hold on to beefs or grudges with people. Life is short and I like to think that we all have more in-common with each other than any minor disagreements or opinions we might express from time to time. :)

Well, it WAS about 40 minutes ago when I posted that, before I and others +1ed it.
You're slow again, guitar boy.
I'm gonna have to start scanning your wishlist at this rate.

I'm too busy playing guitar to notice such things. :) If someone's cranky with me I hope GOG puts some games they want on sale to make them happy instead. :)

skeletonbow: I just went and filtered to Interplay games and after my purchase I now own 17 total Interplay games. Since I bought 8 it means I formerly would have owned 9 games. Perhaps that could explain it, for if they require you to buy or own 10 games to get the discount and they include games you already own, then buying 1 game would bring me to 10 and give me the full discount.
avatar
GR00T: Yep, that's exactly it.
I had 1 game and needed to buy 7 to get the full discount.
After seeing this thread, I double checked and it seems my Fallout 1&2 Classic editions must have tipped the scale. I found that interesting enough to share it with you :P

Weird, I own the 3 Fallout classic games here also (from the free promo a few years ago) but they don't show up on the game-chooser page for "Owned games". Perhaps they count behind the scenes toward the total, but don't show up as they're no longer for sale, and the new releases here are under Bethesda so not part of the promo. That could be it perhaps.

Or, maybe they just Fellout... :)

Strange, I have 2 owned and Fallout 1&2 Classic, yet I need to choose 8 to get the full discount.

Edit: I redeemed now another and have 3 owned (+ Fallout classic & Fallout 2 classic) and need to choose 7 for full discount.

Strange.
Are there two Interplay games not available in Germany, so we only have to reach 8 for the promo? ;)

Sounds only fair. :)
