* Call of Juarez

There aren't that many Western-themed games out on PC.
There are even fewer GOOD ones. "Call of Juarez" is definitely
in one of those two groups. I'll let you decide which one.
Personally, I wouldn't call it a bad game -although itTYJKA
is dated- but it doesn't hold a candle to something like
"Red Dead Redemption" or "Outlaws". It's okay; it 5PY8Z
captures the feel of the Old West pretty well, the graphics
are still passable (I mean, it _is_ 18 years old), and HN8IZ
the gunplay can be fun. It's just not GREAT. But you get
what you pay for, I guess. Give it a try anyway. You may
like it.

"Wait," I hear you cry, "Didn't you just give this game
away a few days ago?" And the answer to that is 6CC78
yes, but this is not an intentional attempt at
deception or duplication. The simple fact is that when
you give away as many games as I am, sometimes you ECE9Q
don't notice that you're giving away the same game more
than once. Some might say this is might be another AC9H8
example of me being foolish with my money; I say it's
another opportunity for you to grab this fun and
challenging platformer!

I will pass on both games.
Spalls, I am seeing a lot of gibberish characters in your post and
even in your subject header. I don't know if this is a problem on my
end or yours.
Like these games!

There you go! Two more games, and another day closer to THE BIG DAY!
Hope you have fun with these. As for me, I gotta get a move on. My
whole schedule has been thrown out of whack; I got a lot to catch up
on. But I'll be back tomorrow with more games!
Ho-ho-ho!

Do you think Spalls might actually really be Shodan?

I'm pretty sure I played its OK demo back then so pass. Outlaws rocked.

"Valfaris is already in your Steam library". :P
"Code has already been entered" I'm not sure if this means you blocked
me, or if someone else got it.
I'm not really into platforms any more, I just thought I should try to
get one, and this one looked possibly fun.

It's not really clear if somebody using a key when they already have
the game in their library 'uses it up' or not, but it is possible, so
please plesae PLEASE everybody, check your accounts before grabbing a
key.
But generally, the TL;DR is that you were just too slow, Justisaur ;-)
Also, she called me an insect which is true! SS2 rocked except its ending.
I need to play that SS1 remake. I briefly played its prerelease version
back in 2016 or so. It was beautiful and easier to play. So much better
than the original DOS version.

I think I would prefer the remake as well. It is 60% off right now.

You guys need to be quicker. Spalls is posting these games every day.
He may even do it multiple times a day.
I haven't done it multiple times a day this season... yet. But who
knows what might happen in the future. ;-)
(out of respect for your time, I'll give you this much: the schedule
is for once a day UNTIL Christmas day. But even I am not sure what
might happen on the 25th, although past history shows a tendency
towards excess on my part)

I know naught of what you speak. Maybe it's that my post started with
4 hos ("ho-ho-ho-ho") instead of the usual three; is that the problem?
I guess I got a bit excited. Extra hos will do that. Other than that,
the post looks completely ordinary to me. ;-)

IIRC, that final end sequence was made on the rush after a disk-crash
erased the original. So I'm a bit forgiving of its lack of depth.

I was actually underwhelmed with the remake. Now, to be fair, I never
really was that thrilled at the 1996 original either (it was
okay-not-great). But in my opinion, the remake hewed too closely to
the original game, and its dated mechanics weren't any more fun just
because it had some improved QOL and better visuals.
My personal take-away was that of all the games, the "Redux" version
was the best one to play; the remaster looked like a 2024 game but
played like one from 1996, and this mixture of old and new was
aggravating. There were so many things they had the opportunity to fix
and improve, and they didn't! But with the Redux you never were
confused that you were playing an old game, so its creaky mechanics
were more forgivable.
Still, if you want to give the game a try, sure, why not? I wonder if
there's any chance it will be a freebie during the 2024 holiday
giveaway. I guess we'll just have to wait and see ;-)
