Hi all!

I'm sorry, I had to leave early the company yesterday and wasn't able to share with you the new games of the week. See, I had to see a doctor, ... Oh I can tell to you, you won't say my secret: I discovered a third hand fixed on my belly last week and... Erm, TMI, you probably need your games. So here they are!


Sniper Ghost Warrior Gold Edition


Developed by City Interactive’s dedicated next-gen games studio, Sniper: Ghost Warrior delivers an impressive visual and technological gaming experience and features a realistic ballistics system that measures bullet trajectory, bullet drop and environmental effects such as wind, fog & rain. Encompassing a wide array of single and multiplayer levels, players will encounter a variety of challenging terrain. Players take on the role of a Ghost Warrior, an elite sniper in a highly trained special ops unit, whose unique skills in the art of stalking, target detection, surveillance and shooting accuracy will determine mission success. Covert missions force players to operate undetected as they attempt to eliminate hostile enemies one head shot at a time.

And next week games will be:
Tropico 4
Men of War: Red Tide
Sandra Fleming Chronicles: Crystal Skulls
Megapolis

Wow!! tropico 4 and MoW:RT.. just when I was considering whether to renew my subscription ot not ...

Thx Raka I was talking about the DLC for Drakensang 2 called Phileasson's Secret it was released in may! Just trying to see if you guys could get it I really loved Drakensang 2 River of Time but I want to play the DLC for it as well!

I was hoping the "coming soon" advertisement for Tropico 4 didn't mean it was coming soon to the Download to Own section. Some good news, for a change.

And just to make sure you didn't forget about it, is there any progress on the standalone player (i.e. tray client)? I don't expect release dates, just wondering if it's on at least one of your minds and if you're working on it.

I know contracts are complicated and everything, but have you considered working with some of the indie game studios, such as some of those featured in Humble Indie Bundles?

Yeah, things are moving with the new player, but still slowly.

For the 2 others questions (Drakensang and Indie games), I think Dr Wong will know better than I the answer

Anyone else having trouble getting Sniper Ghost Warrior Gold to work? It shows up in my process list but the game window never appears and I can't Alt-Tab to it. I've tried various compatibility settings with no luck. Every other game I have seems to work fine.
