When you have no or bad connection it stores the information in the buffer and scrobbles the tracks when your connection improves.

You have to click 'show details' and then accept, Matt. I'll do that myself now actually.

Auhsor: hey, I'm a Marillion fan too, haven't listened to marbles yet, but Misplaced Childhood, Brave and Clutching at Straws are all great records. Especially the first, it's magnificent and just gets better with each listen.

Basically anyone can approve a new member, so I did that now, ManicMatt.

You can play it with winamp or whatever common player you are using, it just installs the needed plugin.

Some people here have been familiar with this for quite a while, while others are not in the know, so here goes...
Basically, www.last.fm is a database which writes down all the tracks you listen to, and then creates neat charts like this one:

It then uses these charts to find people with similar tastes to yours, you can listen to radio stations similar to your or anyone else's tastes and much much more. So try it out, and join the AGS group there.

OMG n00bs! Your art just seems to get worse with years. Especially Farlander's, Progz's and Eric's. I really really really loathe your miserable attempts at drawing!

Spoiler

Yeah, I wish I could draw something that was as good. :/

Indeed, it looks amazing, Dave. Can't wait to play it. What more can one say...

Indeed m0ds, your midi mixing skills are exceptional... I think you should take the next step and move on to digital audio, it gives you much more freedom.

The original shivah may be available on certain peer2peer clients.
Also, the original soundtrack is now available for download.

Happy Birthday to two of the best musicians around, Geoffkhan and N3tgraph!

What can I say, apart from a big... WOW! Really, really amazing.

Then everyone just ignore my statements and go on writing what you wan to, whatever.

First of all, I'd like to say that I am not a poet and hence do not write poetry. But that doesn't mean I can't judge. And what is poetry? To me, it's not just verses the last word of which rhymes, u1bd2005 and r4l. Nor is it a random babble with no rhyme and composition, Obi. To me, poetry is beauty, flow of language, delight of sound when read out loud. And while I mean no offence to any of you, I don't find any of that here.

That's just ridiculous... I don't see a bit of poetry here. Do we really need a poetry competition? :/

The Last Express and Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned were released in 1997 and 1999, respecitvely, and they both stand as one of the best adventure games ever made. Stop whining and let the genre develop. ¬_¬

It's done in flash, as far as I can make out...
IMO, the trial version is decent, but nothing more - just as an adventure game felt like, 10 years ago, maybe more. Well with better graphics, maybe.
Been there, done that.

Hey, that's great news - I can't wait for the second game, and I believe it will be even better than the original. Thumbs up, IceMan!

Uh dudes, I got a bug with my actual first click in the game - when I tried to walk to the left to the house, alexander stood on an obviously non-walkable area and couldn't move... and that kinda put me off to play the rest of the game, sorry. :-/

Nevermind.

I just played the deluxe version through, and I must say it's a top-notch production. Since I already posted my impressions of the original game, I'll just add what I liked about the deluxe version:
-  Most of all, the enhanced character graphics and animations, hats off to ProgZ.
- The story and puzzle touch ups that Dave made - the original game was also pretty tight in terms of storytellnig, but the deluxe version features some extra dialogue and puzzles, which adds to the overall atmosphere of the game.
- The voice acting is very well done, the voices all match the characters very well, and do admirably in acting(You were awesome, Grundislav!). The only glitch is that Joe DeMarco's lines were recorded a bit louder than everyone else's, but he doesn't have too many lines anyway.
- The music is completely rewritten(not by me, alas), so anyone who got tired of the old tunes can listen to new ones.
- The goofs during the acting and the commentary are nice bonus features, and quite amusing, too.
Overall, this game is well worth your five dollars, especially if you enjoyed the original. And my guess is that it will be one of the main favourites to sweep the awards.

Best everything: Gameboy.
