x-no-archive: yes

as usual the same monthly poll
how many pc games have you bought in may 2005?
again steam infected and downloadable don't count but only
proper packaged box retail versions
don't need to specify what game titles but rather the number
the main reason for this monthly poll is to separate the
filthy pirates from the proper pc gamers
so if there is a poll you should reply its this one cause
everyone is watching!
no replies means no buys and no buys means stealing!
and stealing means you are a scum thief pirate!

I bought no games in May, so I must have stolen them all.

Unfortunately, someone seems to have stolen them from me before I even
found out what it was I had stolen. In fact, they even stole my memory
of stealing the games.

How else can I explain the fact that I have bought no games (and am
therefore a scum thief pirate)and still have the same number of games
at the end of the month as at the start?

One!

Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil expansion

I'm too busy replaying Incubation and finally getting around to
Vampire: Bloodlines to be bothered with purchasing more at the moment!

Oh lets see
I have for my own use bought following games through the years

Space Quest (Roger Wilco)
Half-life Generations pack
Gunman Chronicles
Homeworld 1, 2 + 3
Half-life 2

Currently when it comes to PC games I have only Steam and Valve games
installed on my own computer
Not playing much though - mostly mapping and doing 3D modeling for HL2

Power to all Steam games!

Which operating system are you running these 4 games on.

BTW, like chadwick, I too much be a scum pirate because there were no games
released in May that I have any interest in and therefore I must have stolen
them

I sure you MR Steamkiller doesn't work for any statistical analysis
companies with the conclusions he makes here.

I will say this, the most entertaining guy on the net though.

The movie chicken little is coming out this summer (I think) , that is who
he reminds me off, running around helling "the sky is falling , the sky is
falling".

To paraphrase one of my favorite TV shows:
"That question was [not] stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly
stupid way."

I wish someone without a bizarre agenda had asked this. I would have
answered that I have bought and played only one PC game in all of 2005:
World of Warcraft. (Also bought one console title, Psychonauts, to
support Tim Schaeffer.)

Even though I consider myself a casual gamer (less than 15 total gaming
hours a week), I'm shocked at the amount of time I've devoted to that
game, and at the fact that I'm not bored with it yet. I'm not going to
list my total gaming hours, but I will say this: Despite the fact that
I paid a rather high price for the game itself (for a then out-of-print
Collector's Edition) and I've been paying monthly subscription fees
since March, I've only paid 42 cents for every gaming hour this year,
versus $1 for every gaming hour when I used to buy a PC game every 2
weeks... and that's not even accounting for all the console titles I
used to buy.

There honestly aren't ANY offline RPGs available today which I'm
interested in that I haven't already played twice. There are a number
currently in development that threaten to break my online habit once
they arrive, though.

Ahhh but you still pay every month for WoW so it's like buying the same

Parker, you hit the nail on the head. I was going to comment on how my
zero was sad indication of the Rpg market lately, only to realize I am a
thief!

Chadwick, LOL funny.

Pre-ordered the German release of Dungeon Lords, but it was pushed back to
June, so I guess it doesn't count. I've bought no other game in May, and
was busy with WoW.

I haven't =bought= any, but I've spent the last 4-5 weeks playing (beta
testing) Geneforge 3, which is (IMO) not quite so much fun as 1 or 2,
but still a couple of orders of magnitude better than the other offering
of 2005 so far.

Doubtless Jeff Vogel will announce it here as soon as the beta testers
finish breaking it, which shouldn't be too long. 8>.

He asks this question (and getting stupider every time he does) every
