    Does no one play fortnite any more? I would have thought SOMEONE would have snapped up the code above :)

    I loved this so much I'm scared to go back and ruin that memory.

    I have a similar position on a game called Gabrial Knight sins of the Fathers.

    I have such a positive and amazing memory of how indescribably good that game was that I just know if I went back and replayed it I would realise it was a complete heap of guff.

    oooooOOOOOooooo Woooooooo Boooooo!

    This is the ghost of Kunst Nugget -boards now won't let your username have the word Kunst in it, the philistines!!! - come to steal that code from your mortal grasp for the benefit of my daughter.

    Also, you will be visited by three spirits. Without their visits, you cannot hope to shun the path I tread. Expect the first tomorrow, when the bell tolls One….

    oooooOOOOOooooo Woooooooo Booooooooooobs!

    Ah good, hope it works for you. Let me know. Possible someone else used it and just didn't see fit to mention it.

    Surprisingly, it did. I couldn't redeem it without letting you know. Hence this account from the other side. oooooOOOOOOOooooo

    Guys, any codes put into any thread will be scrapped by bots and redeemed within seconds.

    If you want to post a code, put a false number/digit in the last spot and explain what it is in the post :)

    I used the spoiler tag and it seemed to work as it stayed unredeemed for a number of days.

    Apparently it was just good old fashioned hard work:

    "As GOG explains on its site, the team of programmers spent eight years reconstructing the game from retail discs instead of the original source code, and they apparently worked with film studio Alcon Interactive Group to legally release it through GOG."

    You know you're way too used to current generations of game consoles when you decide to go back and play a retro console and you look around and can't find the gamepad, only to realise it's a wired gamepad and plugged into the the console already..................I feel like an idiot

    Retr0 I’m legitimately questioning whether you actually played any other game this year and are just suffering from advanced Stockholm Syndrome? :pac:

    Admittedly I've not played most games released this year and it's been a great year for games especially indie games.

    However I honestly believe it really is one of the very best games this year. There's better games narratively. There's cleverer games like baba is you. And well... There's the outer wilds which is incredible. But I think of you want a game that just represents everything fun about videogames this year then really nothing else comes close to delivering the action and excitement of Ace Combat 7.

    It might not be everyone's favourite game of the year but I think if you are considering a best of the year list it really needs to be included. And I'll keep singing it's praises as it's criminal how overlooked it's been.

    Great games, played 6 to death, multiplayer was really fun!

    Just bought the Deluxe version of Ace Combat 7. You better be right Retr0! Then again, probably haven't plated an Ace Combat game since the PS2 days.
