ride your bicycle through a giant sheet of paper filled with diagrams. Gets harder the farther you go. (there is an end, evetually.) 

Anyone know where it can be downloaded? 

You mean legally or illegally?

Legally I'm not sure, but I'd check steam, they have loads of Lucas Arts shiz nao (not on my own machine atm so can't login and check if this is the case), failing that try amazon or ebay.

Illegally I would be hesitant to link to any warez sites, let alone directly to a download link, but I'm sure if you're looking for a place to acquire backups of software you've lost the discs for then this article would probably be a good place to start; http://torrentfreak.com/25-great-pirate-bay-alternatives-090822/ (RIJ nazi funded, profiteering, arrogant arse wipes (Raped In Jail in case you were wondering)) 

Anyone tried one of them? Are they any good?

Where is the #tf campaign? 

pretty sure I already asked this and then forgot, but does anyone know where I could download or order a real copy of grim fandango? 

 

"unreal deal" for 16eur on steam: Unreal Gold, UT99: GOTY, UT2004, UT3 

Unreal2 too but noone gives a shit about that one 

Actually I didn't give a shit about any of them but I bought it anyway. 

You can get Tales of Monkey Island for "free" (e-mail address) today: http://www.telltalegames.com/playlikeapirate 

I'm pretty sure Grim Fandango isn't on steam...
whatever, I'll figure it out. 

a flash platformer with a cool art style, and some quality learn-by-dying gameplay:

I've been wasting time with this:

Getting a 403? 

seems to be getting slashdotted/metafiltered/something last few days. I couldn't get in on two days ago, but yesterday it worked. Might have to come back later. 

I didn't big that link up enough:

It's a shift style game but much better with a decent story, artwork and sound. Gameplay is the fairly standard puzzle / platformer, but hits the spot for the frustration to I'll just finish this level balence.

The user made levels are surprisingly good as well. 

have there been any good action rpg games lately? something played from third person and not a diablo click-fest? sp, ofc. 

Fallout3 maybe?

Risen is coming out next week (that's from the guys who made the Gothic games), wonder how that will turn out. 

Seriously, Fallout 3. Best RPG to come out in years. 

pirates of the caribbean(by bethesda), is very good rpg game, 

i wasn't very impressed with fallout 3. i just really hate the oblivion engine but i knew what i was getting into when i got it-- i just really wanted it for the post-ap theme.

i'll keep an eye out for risen, but i don't know if i'll be able to find pirates of the caribbean. 

I really liked Mass Effect. It had this cool 80s dark sci fi vibe. The music was bad ass. The story is also pretty good, and promises to weave a fairly complex tale when the 2nd and 3rd ones come out. 

was indeed very good! I would recommend it in a heartbeat if you have enjoyed any of Bioware's other games.

I still recommend Mount & Blade to anyone with a pulse, it might not be a fully fledged rpg, but its close enough, and the battles are just epic =) 

i've played ME, and yeah, it was quite good. :)

i see mount and blade has a trial version, so i'll take a look :) 

played a bit of mount and blade. it's ok, i guess, although i tend to like to play magic characters, it's still nice to see a game with no magic at all.

my beef with the game is that it's generic, but that's to be expected with a sandbox game. it's also pretty hard. that or i'm doing it wrong.

i took a quest to train up some dudes in a village. unfortunately, all the villagers i trained got killed in the ensuing battle and the village was sacked.
after that, i ran into a roaming group of dudes who kicked my ass and took me prisoner.
so after loosing my horse and some of my stuff, i did some crappy courier quests for a bit of dough and picked up a fast horse and a spear which seems to work a lot better than the axe i started with. it's still pretty hard to connect with enemies though.
