Yes, I am now the proud owner of a copy of Grim Fandango (and I'm thinking about going back to the store soon to buy Curse of Monkey Island, maybe for a friend or maybe for myself [Wink] ). I also bought a couple of heavily discounted new books last night, and about a week ago I bought myself another heavily discounted book and a heavily discounted CD.

In total, I have bought myself five or six Christmas presents since coming home, which roughly equals the total number of Christmas presents I have purchased for other people.

Am I a bad person? Or just a consumer whore? [Razz]

Can you be a bad person and a consumer whore?

But seriously, dude, go get The Curse of Monkey Island.

Well, "bad person" implies "consumer whore," so I'm just wondering if I'm only a consumer whore, or whether I go all the way to bad person. [Razz]

So do I give the Curse of Monkey Island to a friend? Or keep it for myself?

Heh. Since I've been home I bought one present for myself and one present for one of my brothers (I have two.). If you're a bad person, I'm probably worse. So I'm counting on you being a good person and just a consumer whore, if only to protect my self-image. [Wink]

I've certainly already played Curse of Monkey Island so it doesn't matter to me [Wink]

Great game though.

Twinky, buy the game and give it to me, but since you need to test it to make sure it works, play it until you can hand deliver it to me.

That should take a year or so.

Out of interest, did you buy one that's compatable with Windows XP? I've been searching, but ever since I upgraded, my old copy won't work and I can't find a new version that does.
