      Yeah, I heard those dates weeks ago. I figured that the leak is what tipped off GOG to go first. I've been ready for this sale for a while. I have nearly 300 items in my wish list 🙂

        Yeah, wasn't a secret at all. I guess it's "viral marketing" of some sort. Pick some small studio and let them post on Reddit, Twitter or somewhere else.

        Anyway, as quite some people here are addicted to gaming, I thought that it would be a good to leave a note.

                    Some titles are way cheaper in canada. Some are not. Why?!?

                      Because we Europeans, especially we Germans, like to pay more than others. There may be quite some fees included, like the ones for artists etc. Not sure.

                      For example, we are paying a reproduction fee if we buy something like USB thumb drives, SD cards and even printers or DVD burners to recompensate book authors for example, because we could use such devices to copy their work... Something awfully stupid, all about lobbying.

                            So FF 9 is still $20 bucks... Meh... I've got it working great on EPSXe and can even use a bluetooth PS4 controller there... So instead, I snagged Gauntlet and Final Fantasy 8.

                            Maybe if FF9 drops to $11 like Final Fantasy 7.... Still contemplating getting that one.

                                  Fable is awesome. If you've never played it, check it out.

                                      So sad that Fable 2 has not released for PC yet when the original, the remake and III all have. Grrrr....

                                            @scottalanmiller It's not on Steam, GOG, anywhere. I found an announcement that after games for windows live was killed, they pulled it from sale as keys could not be activated anymore.
